Since my foot is wrapped up like a mummy & I’m hobbling around unsteady & wobbly we went looking for BBQ Vs attempting to do it on the Traeger
Ended up with a big box from Alabama with 2 pounds of brisket (in 1pound packages) a whole chicken in white sauce & a pound of pulled pork along with a bottle of red sauce & mustard sauce
So ya throw the bag into a pot of boiling water for 30 minutes & so far the brisket & pork have been really tasty & the BBQ sauces are superb….
Can’t remember the last time I had a chicken in white sauce & looking forward to that even if it’s going to be messy
Was $160 shipped & while expensive we have 4 days worth of BBQ like nothing we can get in the area so I’m ok with paying $40 a day/meal we throw sides on and still have leftovers. It’s cheaper than driving 50 miles to the closest BBQ joint and better……
Think we shall try the white sauced BBQ chicken tomorrow and the last brisket Monday
This is pretty simple to make and I've never had leftovers.
Don't cut the asparagus, but snap it to insure you get all the tough stringy parts out.
Put it on foil with enough extra foil to make a packet. Sprinke a fair amount of garlic powder on it and throw 2 or three tablespoons of butter on it. Seal the packet up and cook it towards the cool side of the BBQ grill.
NRAAM 2024 is a wrap. Attendance seemed down, which makes sense, but events occurred at the board meeting Monday that give me a lot of hope. 3/4 establishment candidates were defeated, including the EVP/CEO role. Doug Hamlin is the new EVP/CEO. Doug was formerly head of publications, and is as honorable and honest of a man as I’ve ever met. He’s a USMC infantry Colonel that I’m pretty sure wouldn’t take a pencil.
There’s a chance, right now, to get things back to where they need to be—to make the NRA the champion of 2A rights that its members deserve, to clean things up entirely, and to usher in transparency and accountability, and that’s exactly the intent. Thank you to the board members who survived the purges and still stood up and did the right thing Monday. Thanks to Doug for sticking his neck out to make this run. Thanks to Buzz Mills and everyone on the board that helped to make this happen.
As for me, apparently I’m now on the nominating committee, which controls who makes it on to the BOD ballots, among other things. This committee was previously used to purge the disloyal and make sure that there could only be a few anti-establishment candidates on the ballot that had run by petition, preserving status quo. My goal will be to work with the other committee members to ensure that candidates will be true 2A supporters that understand board responsibilities, are willing to put in the work, and who understand and are willing to serve in transparency and with accountability.
There’s a lot of work to do, and I’m not counting any chickens until at least the first steps beyond this momentous vote actually occur as promised. But, for the first time in years, I think we can pull this out and get back to being the largest and most powerful civil rights organization in the country…with clean hands and a clear conscience.
It will require people coming back, industry coming back, and yes, donors coming back. But, if we’ve got principles back in the leadership, the rest will come. I’ll keep you posted on how things progress.
At 0720 UTC I tried searching money metals exchange and got the message that search results were unavailable. I tried a few other terms and got the same results. I was able to go directly to mmx's site, but nothing on duck duck go .
