Sort of relatedly, I notice that people seem to be in a particularly grumpy mood out there in general. Not as much holiday cheer as usual. Not sure why, but I hope people manage to brighten up. Sure, lots of things suck, but the world’s not such a bad place.As I said, I am in a fine mood. So is Mr. Big Food. Sure, it's raining. Sure, I miss Missy & Rocky desperately (although no where near as desperately as I will tomorrow and the next day... ). But as Glenn notes, "the world's not such a bad place."
UPDATE: Tom Maguire emails with an explanation:If libs are in a bad mood it is because not only has their President collapsed but sometime in the next few days they have to go home and deal with (or be!) PajamaBoy.Heh.
If a righty is in a bad mood it is probably because due to cracking a rib laughing so hard about, well, the collapse of the Presidency or dealing with PajamaBoy.

How do you make deer meat wurst??
ReplyDeleteFor every 1 pound freshly ground deer meat, you'll need 1 pound beef roast (sirloin tip, round, chuck) freshly ground, 2 Tbsp curing salt, 2 Tbsp Liquid Smoke, 1 Tbsp garlic powder, 1tsp pepper coarsely ground or more to taste. Combine all mixing very well. Shape into 1 pound logs.
ReplyDeleteRoll up into single layer of foil. Seal. Cure 24 hours or more in fridge.
When ready to bake preheat oven to 325. Fill broiler pan 1/2 full of cold water. Poke a few holes in foil on bottom of wrapped wurst. Place on broiler pan tray over pan. Bake 90 minutes or until internal temp of 170+. Cool to room temperature. Refridgerate at least 12 hours before unwrapping slicing & eating.
These freeze well.
