I'm just a redneck pastor. I have education and prefer my country livin' over just abt anything else. I began in law enforcement and have been a volunteer EMT and Firefighter. I grew up on a farm and you just can't take the farm out of the boy even though I grew up and left tbe farm. I am...
I understand a good curing salt has sugar in it too. I don't know the percentages, but sugar can cure as well as salt, but obviously the taste would be very different. Can you imagine ham or bacon not being salty? I have the big charcoal grill with Texas side smoke box. It smokes meat to cook...
Back in the day most that raised hogs had lots of salt on hand and a smokehouse. Lots of salt for curing and low heat with lots of good wood smoke. Even cuts not smoked went into a salt barrel for curing.
Hello. Maybe you can go to the social post and do an introduction so we know more abt you. Where you're at and what herds you have. I didn't find a new member post on you, but welcome to BYH!
I think we have Labor Day weekend plans, but would have liked to. October would probably work better for me if it works out for you and the offer is still open.
The Swisher has a top and bottom tubular frame that is square. It has some paint peeling that I think I will prep the whole frame and give it a red paint job. It has an adjustable tongue so it can pull straight behind or offset.
Fred, you sure do hear a lot of things in your head: Tim Allen, tv theme songs. We could be related. Refer back to my recent reply to Bay in Introducing Beaux.
I will probably have something on stilts so they can have cover under it and attach some flip down castors or dollies. I plan to use T posts for the run and have a mesh cover for a grain semi trailer or something. It resembles real strong netting with abt half inch mesh. I thought it might work...
I wanted to like your post, Bay but it was more consolation for your troubles with the dog and the losses. Hard to put a like when someone's having troubles. I hope your pup learns not so much the hard way. It's hard enough training domestic pets. I can't imagine training a working dog. If I...
The seller was young like me, and grabbed the tongue of that Swisher and pulled it like a little red wagon. He got past my trailer and started running with it in "reverse" and had it up and on that trailer lickity split.
Yah, Butch is a good guy. Army vet, engineer, and then retired young to...
I helped him go through a nasty divorce, so we're pretty good friends. I try to pay him on work projects more than he asks because I know he should make more than he charges.
I should have taken a pic or two of the mower, but it's at the neighbor's for a few days. It was listed at $500. The seller called and said he mowed with it yesterday, but today he pulled it out and started it and it was spraying gas. He thought it was the carburetor. I brought my neighbor...
Tonight I get to go look at a Swisher 60" pull behind mower with 13hp motor, new blades, belts, and battery. I hope to return home with it on my trailer. Hard to negotiate whether you want it or not when you have the trailer with you, but I usually just ask, "Is that price the best you can go?"
I have Crocs just like Mike's. I have an Adidas slip on "shoe" /sandal like the kids wear with black socks that I wear inside the house to avoid stubbing toes or stepping on Legos. I wear the Crocs for quick trips outside to avoid messing up the Adidas. And, the Crocs can get hosed off inside...
For deer I have seen folks kinda gut out a fridge and hang the carcass where they can control the temps. Sometimes here in IN Fall hunting stays too warm.
Mike, sounds like a good screen play; and action packed movie. Maybe you can write it and sell it to a producer!
Joe, I've been a True BYH Addict forever. Not sure the criteria for advancing. Haha
