Grits are my fav food! Breakfast grits 2 ways

1) tons of butter and sugar
2) grits and some stout ass'd "REAL" red eye gravy

Dinner grits one way

1) lots of butter and about a 1/4 inch of black pepper floating on the melted butter!!!

mmmmm.... hungry!

I cut back down in that area where the pics came from the other day. I wish I could work 2moro, I cut my way to some super nice sweet gum, black gum, and red oaks. I should be high enough up the hill now that I can just fall straight down the hill and not stretch across that gap. If I can turn the lay to 1/4 down hill, I can fall most of the set in one swipe. Ya know...I cut some really nice hickory this week! You will not here me say that very often!

Oh heck I forgot to take a pic of an oak that I am not familiar with. I ran across it and passed it on first cut through thinking it was junk. On the second pass I bore checked it, seemed solid so I fell it. The bark is different, it was like it suckered all the way to the ground and then lost all the limbs and healed over. The tree was about 20" on the stump. The butt of the log showed birds eye looking deals where the sucker limbs went to the heart. I will have to see if I can find another one or take a pic of the stump. Definitely some type of oak I have never seen before.

Yep! I got Colt 2 hens, one with 5 chicks, and the other settin'...I will get her when she hatches out. I also got 8 white brooders, they been on grass for 30 days now, I might eat a few of them in about another 30 days. I think I will smoke 'em.

Hey you guys ever cook "beer butt" chickens? I only do them like that in the smoker, all wrapped in bacon. Then above them I put some keilbalsa
and let the drippings cover the chickens! :msp_w00t: Now that's lerpin right there!
