We had a HRC fun hunt/test for charity this past weekend and of course we did some training. The weather is finally starting to turn here in the great lakes state!

I decided to do some pulled pork tacos for the boys lunch. Problem is the hrc was doing extremely well selling lunch so I decided to save the already made tacos for another day. All the lunches sold went to the charity so I didn’t want to interfere with that.

People always come to our tailgate setup and eat because we have so many great cooks! I’m sure we would have cost the charity a lot of money so it was the right call.

So I froze a bunch of the pork for use another day but not before I ate some of them!

By the way the hunt test, raffles, and lunches sold raised $4700 for the scholarship we are putting up.

Pulled and rebagged Friday night. Dropped on sv Saturday morning to reheat. Worked well we just didn’t end up eating it. Oh well it’s in the freezer now!

A few of the dogs we trained with on Sunday. Good group of guys and some really skilled dogs!

We ate like kings Saturday night when most of the crowd left. I’ll look and see if I have anymore pics from Saturday nights food or sundays food and post when I have more time.

Overall great event and money raised for a great cause! And when some of the guys saw what i put together they hired me to cater our June hunt test! Gonna need a lot more pulled pork tacos!

A win win as I see it. The charity made the money they needed. And you get to enjoy those awesome tacos! Like! B
 
Thanks bds! That’s exactly what I was thinking!

Tacos are, IMHO, the single best use of pulled pork! Strongly recommend dribbling a bit of 'finishing sauce' on them. So, so good.

Thanks berettafan! Hard to beat a pulled pork taco!

Thanks gmc!

Made a few different hot sauces at the end of last summer. Gave a bunch away so I’m running out! Should have made more I guess. The orange/habo sauce is lights out! All my friends are asking for more.
