How big was that thing?!



My little brothers best friend used to be a salesman in the oilfield, he threw a big one back in the day and invited a bunch of clients as well as friends and family - in Poche Bridge.

Had some old timers who knew what they were doing and they butchered 3 pigs, made sausage hanging on lines, fresh cracklins, Chaudin, the whole deal.

Rented a Cajun band.

Some old baw brought some Moonshine.

Guess there were like 75 people.


At the end they were re-seasoning several of those big arse cracklin pots.


Great time.

Thought it was going to be an annual event but the oilfield turned down and he ended up going into insurance.

I use grapeseed oil becaues high smoke point. Get that griddle really freakin hot. Apply lots of thin layers, not heavy layers. This is really important!

Pour a bit on, spread with tongs and paper towell or large spatula thinly over entire surface. Wait til it smokes a fair amount, and repeat this process.

Again. THIN LAYERS. Over-pouring will make it less usable and shorter life cycle.
