    How long will fresh pork keep frozen

    The rule in our house was always one year, so we made sure it was eaten at that point, and we seldom had problem with freezer burn even w/ butcher paper. Was it in a frost free freezer? That makes a big difference too.

    Whiskey soaked wood chips?

    Whiskey is for soaking the liver if you ask me, but I'm sure it has been done. If you try it, let us know, we can still learn.

    What should I do?

    I agree with bubba. Butts (or any other pork I know of ----ham? maybe?) are not hurt a bit by cooking faster. I've cooked them both high and low, and only cook low if I have beef on at the same time.

    Please post your PORK prices here!

    Heck, that's probably 95% of the beef in any grocery store, anywhere in the US. And, 99.9% of all pork. Hamburger, mostly old tough dairy cows. It's the world we live in. My prices: Pork loin chops 2.50 - 2.99 lb Whole loins 1.50 -3.99 lb Pork butts 1.29 - 2.99 lb B backs 3 racks ~ 33...

    Brisket vs. Chuck Roast

    Yea, I'd compare it to the pork butt on the easy scale. Good stuff, I agree with bubba.

    Thank you Hannah!!!

    Pecan is great. Much like hickory, just milder. Both hickory and Pecan are in the same taxonomic family. It's my main wood these days.

    wood boring insects

    Definitely not bigger than 1/4 inch. Smaller than a normal pencil hole. Dads pecan trees have always had these holes in them, and I assumed woodpeckers, but maybe not since I'm pretty sure there are no woodpeckers in my storage building.

    wood boring insects

    I haven't actually seen them, so I don't know what they look like. I've just seen the pile of sawdust. I did notice my wood is getting very light, it may be hollow now, but I doubt it. I planned to use it anyway. I think I should change my screen name to screaming ants. Thanks everybody for...

    wood boring insects

    I got a nice pile of pecan limbs a while back. Most were about as big as your bicep or so, if you don't work out like Arnold anyway. The smaller stuff 1inch and less has dried and I moved it inside a storage building so it won't get wet/rot. I noticed mounds of sawdust under several pieces...

    how long can I....

    I second freezing, it comes out tasting like the day it went in. At least 2 weeks later, that's as long as mine has ever lasted. How much vinegar was in the pork? If a lot, it may yet be fine, but still iffy.

    Gotta have sports fans!

    I was at the ECU/VT game in charlotte last weekend. It was hot, and water was $4, and I drank too much beer before the game. So, I could have definitely used one of those. Nice.

    Finally finished tobacco - Smoked ribs

    Ahh, thanks. I have zero experience with cigar tobacco. Flue cured, and very little burley. I'm sure it's nice to be finished.

    Just an observation about Kingsford lump

    I wouldn't call it a waste of money. It is loads better than bricks but it doesn't match up to royal oak. Seems a bit dry, and burns faster for me, but other than that it does work fine. And yes, it does seem to have tons of small pieces.
