I'm 77 years old, but am not too old to learn new recipes or ways of cooking. I live alone so have to downsize most of the recipes, but haven't had any problems. In answer to your fan, Jan. My daughter never learned to sew and I've been sewing and loving it for most of my life (I have six sewing machines, including an embroidery and two sergers). But recently she started to sew purses, and has decided that sewing is "fun". Of course, I've been telling her that for years. She has learned a lot from internet websites that teach all kinds of sewing techniques. Also, she has started me using my crockpot more than I used to. Keep up the good work, Cristy, and I'll keep watching. I also really like your website. I’m 77 years old, but am not too old to learn new recipes or ways of cooking.

Mostly because I went to college in the south and spent weekends at my roommates' house... Mmmm. Best Cooking Ever. We'd go home for the wekend, get laundry done, get homework done, get advice from her parents (they took me in as one of their own), and had some hilarious conversations about southern cooking. I was raised in Maine, so when they told me we were having hushpuppies with dinner, I was confused... aren't hushpuppies shoes?? Well, it was quite an education, and I now have a soft-spot for southern cooking as it brings back fond memories of my beloved 'other family'. I have some questions for you (or your readers!!) that I thought you might know the answers to: 1. I was wondering about the creamy soup, and if it wouldn't be healthier to use broth or water, but you've answered that one already, thanks! I didn't know that fat was necessary to make meat more tender, but it certainly makes sense now. 2. I don't actually own a crock-pot yet, but am getting married next year and have started looking at crock-pots for our registry. Any suggestions? Every model I research seems to have negative reviews about heating too high... have you had luck with a certain brand, or specific elements a slow cooker should have (wattage, retractable cord, size, handles, etc)? I realize this may be a polarizing question, but I thought I'd go straight to the source for this one! We are on a pretty tight budget, so I think that a crock pot would be a good tool for us to invest in (or be blessed with) to help us eat well and remain true to our budget. I guess that's it for questions. I would like to thank you for your beautiful site. Home Ec wasn't really required in our school district, so I took the minimum offered and can barely sew a button. At the time I thought that being taught how to cook and sew were either boring or sexist. Now I regret the fact that I don't instinctively know how to make a meal for less, or how to re-purpose goods or ingredients. I'm learnig though, and am very excited about this. So thank you for your helpful tips and easy to follow steps. Your gracious and cheerful nature truly shine through your website and make me feel like it's just the two of us sitting in your kitchen. Good luck with your gardens and settling in to the new house. And please give my best to your mama. Keep up the good work, it's appreciated here in New York City!! Jen Hi Chirsty~

I don't have any measurements. I just grease cooker with oil spray, place butt in with fat on top, pour in the vinegar and molasses. This is soooo good. I remove the butt, chop and add my own bbq sauce. Leftovers freeze well. Try the Boston Butt in the slow-cooker with Apple Cider Vinegar and Molasses. I don’t have any measurements.
