the council has forced me to play final fantasy xiv

@amy hi chat

"if your name was John Donut then you would get into poetry"

Here is the primary meat for the chili: pork shoulder! Pork shoulder can be used in any situation you would use stewing beef like chuck roast, although it tends to shred instead of keep its shape (this is why it is often used for tacos or pulled pork sandwiches). It is wonderfully savory and fatty and incredibly delicious for the price ​​

I'm using a little over 2 lbs here, which when combined with the chicken and ham hocks will result in an extremely meaty chili

I'm salting them over a wire rack and leaving them in the fridge overnight. This will cause the salt to be absorbed in the meat (any maybe pull out some moisture I think? which might make it brown more easily? I dunno). I've never done this before for chili but it wasn't too difficult so I thought it was worth a try, we'll see how it goes!

The evening "errand" I had to run got in the way of the beans, hence the massive half in updates. I came back and finished the final batch of beans. I added a little extra salt to it and the resulting bean-liquer-infused stock is really quite something ​​

Here is the most significant fruits of my labor here: some chili paste, stock, and prepared beans. What isn't shown in the shredded chicken and chopped ham hocks

Just one more step for tonight and then I'm done!

@vaporeon_ can I have some

@vaporeon_ what is for breakfast

@cam that's ok, take care of yourself

@vaporeon_ good morning

:

Unfortunately got the heat too high and some of the beans stick to the bottom. I scraped them just in time to avoid burning but this caused many of the beans to burst ​

I ended up losing about half the beans. Luckily I'm doing this in three stages so I'll still have plenty of beans in the end ​​
