My Patreon will launch in 1 week! I took all the results of the poll and I have hopefully created fun and appealing tiers. About my Patreon: I'm trying something new for the next 6-7 months. If it works, I'll continue, but if I end up not liking it, I'll stop it in September or October. I will be starting a monthly subscription membership on a new Patreon account. I will be posting the chapters of my current book ( Lady Wynwood’s Spies, volume 7 ) so you can read ahead of when the ebook will be edited and published. My current plan is to post 1-2 chapters weekly. One reason I’m switching things up is that I want to get closer to my readers and build a tighter, more intimate community with you. You can comment on each chapter of my book, give a reaction, ask a question, or even correct mistakes. My books will become a dialogue with you. If you subscribe to my Patreon, you'll be charged monthly and have access to all the benefits for the tier you subscribe to. The
Captain's Log, Stardate 01.18.2008
I am SO proud of Captain Caffeine! He bought a pork shoulder that was on sale and decided to make Mexican-style pulled pork in the crockpot.
Holy smokes, that stuff was good!!!!
So, not to be outdone, I made homemade flour tortillas (they're actually pretty easy) and we had a DELISH dinner the other night.
Captain Caffeine has graciously agreed to share his magic recipe (although I don't know if it's really magic since he only made it once).
4 pounds pork shoulder blade roast (pork butt)
12 ounces green salsa
1 packet taco seasoning
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)
1 onion (optional)
2 jalapeno peppers (didn't have these, but next time I'll try)
1 beef bouillon cube dissolved in 1 cup water
Dice onion and place in bottom of crock pot. Place pork on top of onions, sprinkle taco seasoning and cayenne pepper on top of pork. Add green salsa and beef bouillon mixture.
Turn crock pot on "high" setting for 6 hours, or until pork can be shredded by fork.
Serve with home made tortillas.
Update: Here's the tortilla recipe. I used this one from Texasrollingpins.com, but I also used the cooking instructions in this one from cooks.com as a guide when pan frying them. I used my cast iron skillet without oil to cook them.
