    Douglah left for dead is THRIVING in my family room !

    Last fall I assumed my lone Douglah was doomed.... I left it out through MULTIPLE hard freezes before I decided to try and save it. I literally ripped it out of the ground and stuffed it into a pot. I then BUTCHERED all the foliage off, so I was basically left with a dead stick in a pot in plain...

    Currently brining until morning, then into the smoker with hickory chips for about 6 hrs, then (due to lack of enough charcoal) it will go tightly wrapped in foil in a LOW oven for about 4 more. Planning on using in burritos, any sauce ideas for the meat once shredded? Kat
