You could say we are finally coming out of hibernation. With the move to Nashville, and the purchase of a new home, we have been busy to say the least. But as winter thaws, we get restless and head back to the woods...or at least, the backyard.
This weekend we opted not to camp, and instead to stay home, cook a pig and watch the Final Four. Now, when I say “cook a pig” I mean, cook an entire pig. We ordered this 50 pound Wilbur from a local butcher about 2 weeks ago.
The original intention was to have a blow out house warming party with all my new coworkers and Nashville friends. We wanted to expose them to original eastern carolina BBQ. But alas, flu and pneumonia this week struck the Hollar household with a vengeance. In lieu of infecting all of our new friends, we opted instead to cancel the party. Unfortunately, it was too late to cancel the pig reservation. So...pig roast weekend it is! I have no idea how we will possibly store all of the cooked meat in our tiny freezer, but somehow we will have to make it work.
Hog roast begins tomorrow at 8am. Stay tuned for pics...
