Busy Cooking Day

Yesterday's dry rub making turned into today's pulled pork. I got up early and had the roast in the oven by a little after 6:30 and it cooked in a slow oven for four hours. And, the slow cooking turned into the slow process of pulling it after the roast rested and cooled off some. I'm not sure how long it took to finish pulling the pork, as I had to take a few rests before the job was completed! I pulled for a while, rested for a while, pulled for a while, rested for a while and then finished pulling it. After the roast was out of the oven, I roasted four red bell peppers...which after they cooled off, I had to peel...lots of peeling and pulling! It was a rather tiring day and I am looking forward to sitting for most of the rest of the evening! I got the pulling and peeling done in time to get ready to go to Bible study. The kitchen still needed to be cleaned up when I left the house. As soon as I got home, I attacked that job. The dishwasher is going and the rest of the dishes have beem washed by hand. It's not a horrible job as I covered both the roasting pans with foil...so I just had to put the throw-away part of the roast and wrap it up and put it in the trash. The pans just needed to be rinsed off. Now I did have a mess close to the area where I pulled the pork...that is all wiped up and the kitchen is good for the next cooking mess...another day! To be continued! Be safe! Be well! Be cautious!
