Ha ha, yeah don't get me wrong by my post, they are all good. I will post the recipies in a bit an let everyone know what I would do differently next time.

Great to meet everyone. I live in Hayward, the East Bay. Dont hunt as much as I would like, but if all goes well will head up to Santa Rosa to hunt some pigs this weekend.
