Back to hobbies ... and Life

Finally got a decent photo of our black pug. He's a beut! He has to think about things alot before dealing with them. He has to sniff and sniff and sniff on a spot and think about what it all means. While the boston terrier would just take a quick sniff and head out looking for things to eat or things to chase. The collar he wears has lots of spikes on it ... just to keep Sheba from chewing on it or using it to pull him around.

Smoker/Cooker

The Assembly of God church just around the corner has a large smoker/cooker that they use for doing ribs, boston butts, and chicken ... on a very large scale.

That circular end is 4 feet across and the barrel is just over 9 feet long.
The main trailer portion is 78" between the insides of the wheels.

Look at the huge counter weights for the doors.
The additional platform on this side is 4 feet wide and folds down to an adjustable height of about 20".

On last Thursday, they cooked over 200 lbs of boneless chicken breasts.
The most they have ever cooked is 100 boston butts simultaneously.

They put the grilled/smoked chicken breasts in this machine ...

which shreds them up.  
Then they add the BBQ sauce to the shredded chicken to make 285 plates ... a really great meal for their congregation.  They let me sample it ... Wonderful!
