Dr_Pain Well this is how everything turned out . Made a seafood gumbo (I think) with oysters ,shrimp and mussels. never made it before so I may have made a mess but man did it taste good!

GWG8541 Grand daughter wanted beer butt chicken for sunday dinner!

3 cans tomato juice
2 12oz cans tomato paste
2 large onions chopped
3 tbs cummin
1 tbs paprica
1 tbs chili powder
2 tbs garlic powder
1 tbs salt
2 cups cider vinegar
1 tbs ginger
1 tbs cinnamon
2 tbs oregano
1 tbs nutmeg
1 tbs basil
1/2 cup texas pete hot sauce
8 oz corn syrup
12 oz maple syrup
2 cups brown sugar

mix all ingredients except syrup and brown sugar
I simmer and reduce this down until its the thickness you like.thinner works well for mop sauce.When it is thickness desired I add sugar and syrup.I then put in hot jars ,put lids on and process in boiling water bath for 10 minutes.
If I am making it into a wing sauce I add 3 dried ghost peppers,4 dried habenaro peppers and 6 dried serrano peppers.adjust that to your taste.crush them and add to pot while it is simmering. I usually reduce it down a little thicker for wing sauce and process it the same

lkrfletcher A special guest for dinner last night!

Busy night ! A batch of jalapeno summer sausage that came out great. casings stayed tight and no fat out. Finally got good protein extraction. Jonathon finally got through to me ! This batch was the best so far! Also made a batch of BBQ sauce which I took the advice of a few members and replaced the maple syrup with honey. Was good advice . I like the change. Thanks to everyone!

Tex_77 Liver and onions done with chicken on the run and a dandelion salad. My wife accused me of eating the lawn! Very tasty though!

Tex_77 Asperagus ready for grill. Got about 15 lbs from patch this weekend!

Tex_77 They are truly a time saver. My back had me down this weekend so i had my grand daughter come over. I could drill the holes and she followed behind me putting plants in. We had 40 plants in in 30 minutes!

tarp Congrats!
