• xenforo has sucessfully updated our forum software last night. Howevr, that has returned many templates to stock formats which MAY be missing some previous functionality. It has also fixed some boroken templates Ive taken offline. Reat assured, we are working on getting our templates back to normal, but will take a few days. Im working top down, so best bet is to stick with the default templates as I work thru them.

Cooking big will wear your butt out!

Did a Girl Scout boston butt cooking last night. 28 - 10lb. butts.
Rubbed them down and cooked for 12 hours.(210 degrees) Hickory and white oak.

Girls in the troop have a standing client list. They pre-sell about once every 4 months and I have to cook! People actually get upset when they have to wait until the next cook because someone got to the girls first! They actually have to impose a limit on how many a person can sell! They only get to sell four each! My kind of fund raiser. (no candy bars here)

They love it but it works my butt off!

Why don't they have a competition where you have to cook 250 lbs. of BBQ and the judges select their own sample from the lot!!!!! Then we would see the "real BBQers". Not so easy when you have to cook a lot!!!!

Napper, You da man!!! Nothin ya can do better than to help little folks out when they are doin positive things in their lives!!! Here's to ya!:grin:
 
Looks great. Good job on the amoount of meat. I know that much can really throw a cooker off kilter.
 
Had a complaint today about the butt cooking.
One of the girls called me to say her uncle got sick from eating the butt.
I am really anal about being clean and temps and meat storage so I got real concerned!

Her aunt said he sat down in the kitchen while the butt was still hot and ate about 3 pounds of it just pulling it right off the bone. He ate just meat! These were 9-10 lb. butts when I started cooking them and she said he ate AT LEAST half of it in one sitting.

Told her I could not be responsible for "acts against nature!"

Guess it was pretty good as when he felt better he put his order in for another one the next time I cook!

GEEZ!
 
Napper, how do oyu handle the health department with that? Or are you exempt as you do this gratis. Scott
 
Scott,

I have a food handlers permit but it is not really needed. Since the girls only sell to close friends and relatives we have never really worried about it. I think that for fund raisers and charity cooks nobody really gets involved with the health dept. Only when people are in it for a profit does that happen.
I got the food handlers permit so my team could cook in a YMCA chicken wing event. We were serving to the general public so at least one person on each team needed a permit. They even inspected us at the event!
