Having this cooking all night and today has my place smelling great. The onions on top were placed 3 hours ago.

And the dessert

I just shop the ethnic markets. Pernil/Carnitas/shoulder/boston butt/picnic shoulder/pork shoulder is what it can be called. Then pork blades, blade steak, and pork steaks are just thinly cut shoulder.

Pork shoulder, 8lbs, $16. Onions, minced garlic, throw in a slow cooker for 18-20 hours, perfect pork for whenever.

We got this next year hell or high water.

17: pernil sandwich (at restaurant, La Criolla)
18: poke bowl (at restaurant, Island fin)
19: heirloom tomato caprese
20: burgers
21: supreme pizza (takeout)
22: beer brats
23: Indian food (at restaurant, Punjab kitchen)
24: Maple whiskey chicken
25: boneless leg of lamb

Now we have leftovers.

Super good. Sweet because of the maple syrup and honey whiskey, spicey because of the white and cayenne pepper.
