UPDATE:  A little light this time...only 11 vials drawn. They couldn't determine which test to draw of B1, B5 (they never heard of that one, I think it should have been B9) and copper. They need to know if it's a whole blood or plasma test. Have to talk to the doc about those since I'm supplementing B1 only and only take a B-complex once a week. Copper and zinc need to be looked at together. They have to enter all my script manually so next time I'll schedule for during the week when my doc's office is open. 

It's raining and I'm making 2 big pork shoulders of NC BBQ. They cooked all night last night. Next. I have to pull and chop them up and season with vinegar and spices...that's it, just vinegar and spices. No carb delicious!

What's on tap today for you guys?

Actually there is a B5, look here

Glad you got it all done for another round. Sounds like the pulled pork is going to be really good. But to be honest, as much as I love pulled pork, right at the moment, it just doesn't appeal to me. I sincerely hope this is a temporary glitch in my system.

I hope you get good results on your labs.  The BBQ sounds wonderful.  Do you freeze yours in small portions for eating later?  I need to experiment with the vinegar and spices rather than BBQ sauce.  I try to make it as low carb a possible but none would be even better!

11 vials. WHOA!  LOL  Swingin' geckos that they come back grrrreat!

I've never ever made pulled pork, and when you say spices I would automatically go for the garlic salt.  Would you mind  giving me a little more specific instructions?  I have a small package of pork in the freezer to try it on.  :-)  (I bet the basics are like making tamale meat, huh.)  Thanks!  <3

It's best with pork shoulder or pork shoulder country style ribs and we're talking about 4 pounds of meat.

North Carolina Pork BBQ
* 1 fresh pork shoulder (3-5 pounds)
* Liquid Smoke
* Vinegar sauce to taste
* Extra vinegar

**Vinegar Sauce
--6 Tbl Sp white vinegar
--1/2 to 1 tsp cayenne pepper
--2 tsp black pepper

Cook meat in large crock pot for 8 - 10 hours on "low" or until meat falls from the bone. Shred pork with 2 forks or chop. Mix vinegar sauce ingredients together. Add vinegar sauce to meat to taste. Add 1 1/2 to 2 Tbl spoons Liquid Smoke for each 2 pounds of meat. Taste to correct seasoning. Add extra vinegar to taste at this point. Cook another hour to blend seasonings.
