Hog Butchering
Last night, I butchered the hog my wife shot at the ranch this weekend. If anyone else finds themselves in a similar situation, I found this awesome guide. Very useful!

I tried the Cooks Illustrated modified version of Michael Bittman’s recipe in the NYT. Just waiting for it to cool…
I have used this recipe before. So easy. This reminds me that I should make up a batch for the bread lovers in our family.
I made my own version of the famous black cod recipe from Nobu except I used mahi because it was on sale. I thought I’d have a little fun with plating, too. Making food look pretty is a lot harder than you’d think. I’ve got a ways to go on that part.
The recipe that I loosely followed is here:
Tonight's dinner. This one took me a few hours. Most of the time went into peeling shrimp and chopping vegetables. Still, it was mighty tasty!
I was too busy eating it to post. Grilled Mahi Mahi with a citrus, avacado, jalapeño relish. Word.
I manually downloaded the iPhone 2.0 firmware and installed it. I'm still waiting for all 7GB+ of my music/video to be synced back over. I can't wait to try out all of my new apps.

Hey Nate! First of all – I love your hog butchering guide by the way. Second of all – how the heck are you?! I don’t do facebook but I found you there anyhow. Looks like you have some exciting stuff going on. Well, I just wanted to say hi and hope we can catch up! Can you believe it has been nearly ten years since we graduated from Trinity?
