    I need a deer camp.  Y'all let me know if you need someone to cook that is willing to cull spikes and does and maybe get one shot at a 8 or 10 pter.

    Your menu better include more than burgers.

  2. Can we talk grind for a bit.

    Most of the recipes I see call for two passes through the plates. 

    I ran one time through the big holes, and started making a second pass through the big holes and the pork fat just created an emulsification that gummed everything up.  We ended up just putting it all in the stuffer after one pass and moving on.  What are y'alls grinding procedures.  Do you free after the first pass to make it workable, or just do a single pass.  I keep all my temps in low 30s and freeze the equipment so it is not a temp issue unless I just need to partially freeze the first gring. 

  3. Finally got around to making a batch of sausage. 

     

    Used a Castroville sausage recipe.  Made some plain, some with cheese, some with jap and cheddar, some with jab and habanero cheddar. Also some breakfast links. About 40 lbs all in.  Had my BIL helping me out.  Got a bit to optimize the workflow but I feel like we did a pretty good job with things.

    This is the basic recipe scaled to 100lb. We ran a bit short on the coriander, and no pork belly to boost the fat content into 20% range, but it still turned out great.

    Add in post offices. 

    We once had circuit riding judges delivering justice.

    Now we need "Circuit-Riding Inoculators" traveling from post office to post office delivering immunizations. 

    Not a terrible idea for the rural locations where there is not pharmacy or medical infrastructure.

    Or it could force them to do something crazy like come up with an actual distribution plan.  I'm letting everyone I know who is eligible to get the shot at Brookshire Bros to get signed up now. 

    I think going to pharmacies in more rural areas is a good angle.

    Called doctors who supposedly received the vaccine.  They said they haven't received them.  What a mess. I'm 1B and trying to see if there's a place to go that has it in or around Austin.

    sign up on the tarrytown and 38th st pharmacy waitlists.

    My parents’ primary care doc is telling them to “wait for the Johnson & Johnson vaccine”

    Has anyone else heard this advice or know the basis for it?

    Do either of your parent's have a history of allergic reactions to vax, drugs, or foods?  If not, they should take whatever is first available imo, esp if they are at high risk.

    Amazon/FedEx/HEB consortium.  I'd say Chick Fil A, but they probably don't believe in vaccines.  

    Yep.  I'd throw a bone to CVS given their broad geographic footprint.  Some extremely high number of American live within a very short distance to a CVS.

    When I got the vaccine, there was an optional CDC registration. Each day since the vaccine, they send me a text and report how I feel. I’m sure that most dont sign up for this service.

    Given how some feel about the govt, even how people in congress feel about the govt, it wouldn’t surprise me if the CDC is restricted by law in terms of tracking people.  No gestapo in bastropo Jade helm restrictions.

    Sign up for vsafe if you have not already. Sounds like you may be enrolled.

    everybody needs to contribute their post vax experience.

    I don’t know where else to post this, but I want to echo what a fucking shit show this vaccine distribution is.  The dshs site list all the locations(but of course no phone numbers).  You call them and they say they don’t have it, don’t know when they are getting it, etc.

     

    How is it that one of these major systems(hell HEB pharmacy when it’s open) can’t do what Tarrytown pharmacy did and put together a simple Google doc to put your info for them to contact you?

     

    We are going to needlessly kill more people because we have incompetent fucks running this country.  

    Yeah. I’m on the tarrytown list as well as my gp. I assume that H-E-B took a centralized delivery and then will have to ship to the individual stores thus the individual stores are in the dark. 

  11. My doc sent an email on Christmas Eve. They are one of the few small practices in Travis county on the DSHS allocation reports, and I imagine are getting a bunch of calls about the vaccine. Anyway, they basically said don’t call us, but send an email to get on the wait list and our triage nurse will call you. I am on the waitlist. I can’t imagine what their inbox looked like on Monday.
