My butcher shop is a family run business, and “my” butcher and I have bonded over the summer over our common grievances of being in this hobby/business and having people sometimes treat us like a joke. (He’s a 18-19 year old “kid” in a career dominated by older men)
Anyhow, we’ve got a good relationship, and we always tag each other in our online posts. Yesterday he posted that the shop has several suckling pigs that he was going cut down, and asked if I had anything planned for the smoker this weekend.
I told him I had an empty smoker, and I’ll let him have “butcher’s choice” on what goes in it.
I went in today to see what he was going to give me, thinking it would be pork.
NOPE! That little bugger gave me a lamb shoulder!!! LOL he knows he’s messing with me, but I’m not going to let him think he’s bested me.
So, I now have a beautiful lamb shoulder with no clue what to do with it. Help!!!
