Seemed like typical daytime television to me. I mean, you knew eventually this would happen, sort of the food version of Dr. Oz, Oprah, or the myriad of other daytime shows. Why not? It's like any other daytime show. It's there for product placement and for celebs to pimp their latest...

I have fallen in love with Jack Daniels Tennessee Honey. It's love in a bottle. No ice, slightly chilled, straight.

I'm debating to make Korean kimpap (rice rolled in seaweed) and some Korean soup or if I should go nuts with the bacon and do my own Epic Mealtime bacon extravaganza.

Welcome! I know a lot of OTR drivers who have the same problem. Not only is most truck stop food deep fried or covered in gravy, it certainly is not cheap. What a few truckers I've known have done is to stop at a grocery store and stock up on fresh fruits and veggies. It takes planning to...

Now I'm wondering what I can use for a motor and gear. I really want to do this cheaply. I'll talk to some local folks about scrounging up something nice. I found a welder who will help me with the main spike that Porky gets stuck on. He's totally excited, too.

I love videos of Hawaiian style of roasting a pig, but I always get envious. I'm in Wisconsin and we don't have banana leaves or pieces of banana trees we can use. I'm wondering if I could use pieces of hickory and apple wood that has been soaked for 24 hours instead. There's a good video...

Welcome from Wisconsin. I respect parents who homeschool and I always wish them luck.

Coolness! Ok, so the pictures posted appeared to use an aluminum square tubing, which seems to be about 2-2.5 inches wide. This would work if I could figure out a way to have some kind of spike on there to keep Porky from sliding. The commercial motors for rotisseries seem expensive! I...

You know, I was thinking about doing it rotisserie style but I was wondering about the motor and all that goes with that. That would mean I need a source of power for it. I doubt I could con a group of people to spin Porky for several hours. Of course, it would be fun to try. I've seen a...

Last year, some friends and I, decided to roast a pig. It didn't happen but now that spring is starting we're talking about it again. I'm now in the planning stages of roasting a whole pig. I've been collecting links and watching videos, scanning forums and searching threads. I guess the...

Your nickname is a food staple in my apartment. I hope my peppers grow well this year because I firmly believe eating enough will cure most ailments. Welcome!

Thanks Chopper! You know, one of these days I might cook something and post it. Who knows? Right now, I'm debating if I want to get rid of my El Cheapo Brinkman smoker of ir I want to fix this one.

I've heard that before. On the other hand, I have a friend who is on oxygen and freaks out over anything hotter than ketchup. He says he used to love spicy foods but now, he freaks out and throws a tantrum complete with hollaring and stomping around the house bellowing at the top of his lungs.

Oh the things you can do with peppers! I usually don't have the other problems people usually do but once in a while I'll pay dearly for my indulgences.

Oh my! Now that does sound good! Did you know if you eat enough hot peppers in one sitting, it will cure most diseases--including The Willies and the Creepin' Crud?
