We smoked two pork shoulders this week. I'll do my best to avoid sounding like just one of the Guys With a Traeger Grill... but I've gotta say, that computer assisted wood burning temperature regulation made for some consistent succulence.
The aim was recreating the Caribbean Roast sandwich from Paseo in SeattleUn Bien in Seattle (and Bien in Key West (and I'm told others(?))). The mystery surrounding multiple names, locations, and store closings aside, this is the best sandwich I've ever had. My friend Jeremy will sign a legally binding affidavit to that effect.
The efforts were rewarded. My cravings for the Caribbean roast were satisfied. It looked like this.
This is so good. I don't wanna go another two years without this flavor. I panic. What if I lose this recipe?
Do I trust Pinboard to save my bookmarks to those recipes forever? Pretty much.
Do I trust those dot coms to host their content forever? Maybe...
Do I trust Paprika to always be in business? I sure hope so, it's a treat.
I wound up printing the webpages to PDF, and attaching those PDFs to an email to myself. I trust the system of email. Specifically I trust Hey's commitment to support their products until the end of the Internet. Basecamp has built trust with me over the past decade. There may be more custom-tailored tools for storing recipes, but so many custom-tailored tools for bespoke tasks have burned my trust in the past.
