Garden Diary 2010 Episode #013: How to Make BBQ Pulled Pork in the Slow Cooker

Monday, March 1st, 2010

I made Pulled pork for the first time. I took some video so you can see how I did it. Here are two things that were not in the video:

1. After I shredded the pork, I poured the coke zero out of the cooker. Then I added the pork and the BBQ sauce.

2. We put the BBQ pulled pork on Hamburget buns and served them with tater-tots and steamed broccoli.

Make a comment and let me know how you made it.

Garden Diary 2010 Episode #012: Window Garden Update

Friday, February 26th, 2010

Hey, Look. My Broccoli and Cabbage are up. I always love seeing these plants start growing. A few more weeks and I will be able to transplant them into the ground outside. Then we will see just how good my green thumb really is.

I also took the time to show you the leaf buds on my apple and pear trees. It seems they have made it through the winter. I will have to make sure I fertilize them several times over the summer.

Please take some time and watch the rest of mt Garden Diary Videos at the top of this page. This is episode 12, so that meas there are at least 11 more for you to watch. Thanks again.

How to Make Plarn

Monday, February 22nd, 2010

I am always looking for ways to reduce the cost of my garden. If I could keep it for free I would. One of the things I want to do is to contrucrt something for my Cukes, Squash and Zuccini to grow up. After I have the frame built I will run line up and down the frame so those vines will be able to grow up rather than out. If I could use Plarn rather than going out to buy the twine, I would save myself a buck or two. I know, I am cheap.

This video is me showing you how to make plarn.
