Potential Thwarted

Yesterday was a beautiful day in WhiteTrash BBQ land. The weather was more like May than January. It was the perfect day to roll out the cooker and make some barbecue.

In anticipation, I had purchased some boneless pork butt. I cleared my schedule. I made up a new injection baste of apple juice, water, brown sugar, kosher salt, chipotle tobasco sauce, butter, onion powder, garlic powder and bay leaf. I let the injection baste sit in the refrigerator over night.

Warming up the injection, just enough to melt the butter, I strained it and injected the butts. I rubbed and slathered the butts and let them sit to absorb my injection -- Wait a minute, I thought Bobby Slather had retired.

Went outside, to pull out the trusty Weber Smokey Mountain from the garage and my plans changed. Some schmuck decided to graffiti the garage doors. Well, my friend Mike - you remember Mike from the Hudson Valley Ribfest - told me about this graffiti removal spray. Spray it on, let it sit and wipe away the graffiti.

Well, yeah, it took the graffiti off, but it also removed all the other paint. So, it wound up stripping the garage doors. My pork got cooked in the oven.

Why am I telling you all this? Because my friend Pete thought it was funny. Pete is a prick.
