Happy Birthday to Me!

Options
My wife asked me what I wanted for my birthday dinner.  I said, "permission to grill all day," so I got a 10.5 lbs. pork butt and started yesterday at 7:30 AM.  Hard to capture a favorable picture of pulled pork, but it turned out fantastic.  Low-and-slow for 8 hours on the grill, wrapped in foil with 1/2 cup of apple juice, back on the grill for 2 hours, pulled at 195 degrees and added 1/4 cup of maple syrup mixed with 1/4 cup of barbecue sauce and let rest for an hour.  Perfect.

    The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out.
