Spokane Skywarn 2012

Crazy Harry · 12-02-2012, 04:53 PM

The first Saturday of December is the Skywarn appreciation day and we srt up a radio station at the local weather service office and try to contact as many of the other weather station as we can. this is a 24 hour event starting as 0000Z Dec 1.
I decided to make pulled pork

Thursday night butts were put on the kamado at 9pm.

they were slathered with mustard and coated with rub thre night before.

Nit quite done at 8am.

At 10 am they were probe perfect, so put them in a pan and covered with foil then into a cooler and covered towels. then heated to the weather station.

setting up antennas

one antenna up and blowing in the wind

everything checked out and ready to go

time for dinner, the pork was still plenty hot, pulled nicely and was served with regular sauce and apricot sauce. the apricot sauce was the preferred one.

The weather makers at work

working through the night

a weather balloon is launched twice a day every day

not much pulled pork was left

We were operating as WX7OTX

I used to always enjoy the annual Field Day event our local club had in conjunction with the local RACES group. I'm quite inactive now but I did enjoy it for a long time!

Yeah, cool cook post, I loved the extra event description. It looked like you had a lot of fun together. Pulled pork looked delicious and I love the idea of apricot sauce, too!
