I think so. Patience. I have it.

I'll send you the list tomorrow. But I can't explain the nuances of making it. I do it by smell and look.

Interesting. My brother and I try to split a hog each year more like 200 lbs. It is much better because you can see the fat and marbling - makes a huge difference in the sausages.

We get sausage patties that we cook like burgers and are fantastic. I didn't know that history.

I was preoccupied telling my Father I never want to be a farmer.

I was a wonderful son.



Eh... most farmers I talk to are realists about farm life and the prospect of kids wanting to stay. They either do or they don't it seams and better to stay because you want to than stay because of obligation.

200 hanging or 200 live weight? I've talked about this a bit with my neighbor who is still an old fashioned farrow to finish outside hog producer. Good guy. He has told me they have started paying a premium for a little more fat so hopefully they will get better. I'll probably talk myself into feeding out a few next year against my better judgement.


My Mom told me to go be a lawyer.

I think you're right now that I think about it. It was 300 lbs. we split to get 150 gross/per.

It wasn't a whole lot. Only cost about $200/per I think last time we did it and only fill up a bit of the freezer.

I thought it was a very cheap way to get great pork.



I was never a do it cheap guy. Or sell it cheap. Between the extra hauling and time on phone we decided that it was worth a bit more than driving down to the sale barn. Back at our peak we would raise about 15-20 a year and generally had a waiting list. It was never going to be a full income but as my grandfather would say, it gave us a few nickels to rub together. Not sure why one would rub nickels together mind you but the colonel had his sayings. One of them was “Don’t be a farmer.” Wise man. Wise man.

Make sure the turkey is frozen solid and you cook it in your kitchen

The year we deep fried turkeys I was the only one who liked it, so the fryer sits in the attic.

I could eat my weight in stuffing each year.

Pierogi as an appetizer is great, but time consuming, if made from scratch.

The local sports bar offers smoked turkey; again, I was the only one who loved it. Whatever, I'll eat the roaster turkey.

We were just wondering what actual wild turkey tastes like. The flock that wanders around the farm was nine or ten this summer. I know guys who hunt turkey, but have never tasted their birds.

Like the inebriated rodent said about pork, commercial poultry and wild poultry are almost different species now.

Smoked turkey is a treat. That's what I ordered this year.

Have you had heritage bred turkey? Like Bourban red or black Spanish? We had that one year, about the closest thing to wild you can get without it being wild. Would not recommend for most part. Smoked would be okay but much like you, I’m the only one in house who likes smoked bird (although my daughter will tolerate it). Every year we have more and more wild turkeys on farm. Maybe next year I’ll grab a permit.

I loved deviled eggs if the recipe is right.

I've tried those ones you can buy in the store. Awful. And yet, I'll see them, remember how much I love deviled eggs and buy them again, fully knowing they suck but also somehow hoping I'll finally find a brand that is good.

I can't get behind the olive slice on top though. First thing to remove.

Lil bit of chopped anchovy in the mix. Like a Caesar salad without the fruity vegetables. No olives in sight.

Olives, prosciutto, and lobster are all good on deviled eggs. All should be chopped pretty well though. Olives are briny goodness.

This gets requested for me to make every year now.

https://biggreenegg.com/recipes/rosemary-yeast-rolls/

I do it on a pizza stone. I don't have the deep dish baking stone they reference there.

It could be done in the oven too. I think we did that one year when the weather was poor.

We've got a supervisor at work who loves to smoke stuff and bring it in- his smoked, hard boiled eggs are the favorite. Doc, maybe this would be up your alley with the smokefest going already, and no good deviled egg recipe. I gave him two dozen duck eggs from my buddy last time, being much larger, they are a hit.

Are they hard boiled, peeled, then smoked?

I've heard of that before. I'd give it a go.

Some things take on smoke so easily - it's too much even for me. That feels like it would be one.

But, as Steve Martin said in The Jerk, as long as I have a voucher.....

Jet- yes, I understand normal hard boiling then about five minutes in the smoke. I could be wrong with the time, it's been a while since I asked, but they certainly take on smoke color in the outer part fo the whites. Served with horseradish sauce, or your condiment of choice.

Doc- I am pretty sure he said only five minutes, but you should be able to tell by color of the eggs, I would think (I know, racist). They have grill marks only on one side usually, so no turning involved.

Zip- None of the supervisors nor fellow employees indulge in FF's type of herb, and we're all regularly tested to prove so. Now MANY have been known to imbibe some of the spirits, now and again. There is a strict five-hour bottle-to-throttle rule, again, tested routinely.
