I was shopping at Costco yesterday and noticed they had pulled pork at nearly 10 bucks for two lbs. :ohmy:

We eggheads certainly do better than that, sans our sunk cost of the egg, etc. which I believe is already recovered due to all the $40 steaks I'm not eating :woohoo: , and I know my pulled pork tastes better. :)

    We saw that a couple weeks ago and Kim said "I wonder how it tastes?" I answered we'll never know. -RP

    Umm, PRIME, I assume?! :lol:

    I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

    I rarely even go to Barbecue restaurants anymore. One the occasion I do want to dine out, I prefer something I am not proficient at making myself. That leaves tons of options but BBQ, Pizza, and Steak arent among them.

    it gets bad over time,after looking at the menu i think why pay so much for somethig im not going to be happy with and end up buying something like a hamburger or the spagetti with meatballs. i can still go out for fried fish and clams etc, best to not cook that often at home :laugh: veal massala is another dish i wont cook at home with all the italian places here, need to be able to pick something off a menu ;)

    you can lead a fish to water but you can not make him drink it

    Ditto on all the above. Albiet there is a Vietnamesse restaurant in Leesburg, Xuan Saigon, that's the best ever. Wouldn't even think about trying to egg/cook her menue.

    My pulled pork is way better than anything pre packaged. I too don't eat anything at a BBQ restaraunt that I can make better. Unfortunately, I eat a lot of ribs, because they are still kicking my hind end when I try and make them. My neighbor gave me 4 pkgs of baby backs that I'm going to experiment on next. Sooner or later, I'll get em where I like em!

    Keep at it with the ribs, took me 4 or 5 times to get the patience needed to let the lo-n-slo do its thing. Now my ribs are the best.

    Good luck!
