Sure. Just keep in mind, this menu is just what I'm working from, not printing it and presenting it. Annddd sticking with ingredients already in house.

I do a lot of pork shoulders, usually for pulled pork. Did an 8 lb one that cost me all of $12 on sale. What would the flavor gain be for spending $45? If you think it’s worth it, I’m game to try.

I smoke cigars once in a while and have discovered that the difference between a $5 cigar and a $20 cigar is usually $15, but I still get them once in a while!

I will steal that one. It’s excellent.
