He actually did start a thread a while back after talking about it in the chat room, a few people replied.....but I haven't heard much since! Cheese is fun.......I love playing with the curds! It smells really good too, nothing like nibbling on a few warm cheese curds. :)

roflmao, well you have one up on me, I haven't tried nibbling on any warm cheese curds but you do have my interest on that. Well hopefully we can get that thread to be more active thru the winter.

Wade that totally sucks and again Corporate America is all about the CEO's and not about their employees who are the ones who keep the company going.
 
I had a great day with forum member, Shoebiedoo. We did a road trip to L'Uva Bella and snagged some of the last few buckets. I got 3 Brunello and 2 Verdicchio and Steve got a Barolo, a Brunello and a Soave Classico. They had some very good pricing on carboys and Steve grabbed 2 sixes and a five and I picked up a 15 g Demijohn. Had some great food and beat a path back to Columbus. Fun road trip.

Sounds like the start of a good soup. This is what I'd do... I'd take start by boiling the beans in a small pot.

In a large pot, with a bit of oil at the bottom, heat to medium. Throw some salt and pepper on the pork chunk. Place it into the hot oil. If you like heat, now would be the time to throw something hot into the oil, part of a fresh chili or a tbsp of your fav hot sauce.

Don't forget about the beans. When they are done, remove from heat. We will add them with the veggies.

Fry that pork roast on all sides, at least 2 mins per side to get a nice browning. Then add some hot water, maybe a 2-3 pints, depending on the size of your pot. Lower temp on stove, and simmer covered for 90 mins or so.

Take some vegetables... I like carrots, celery, and onion in my soup. You should also add the beans at this time. I would likely add some fresh garlic as well if I had it. If you have some chicken stock, that would be a good addition at this time. Any fresh herbs you may have growing, or whatever spices you normally use will now make this soup yours.

Top up the water to a level that makes a good consistency, and simmer for another 90 mins or so. You will have a beautiful soup to go with the cornbread.

oh beans are done they've cooked all day I like to make soup beans when I cook them they cook all day not in a slowcooker either. I like mine where next day they are so thick you gotta cut them outta the bowl thats when they're really good
