The Lu`au Aftermath

The lu`au was a tremendous success. The temperature in the imu was measured at 194 degrees using a thermocouple (the tool that you use to probe lava), and a pig is supposed to be sanitary at 170 degrees. It was the MOST delicious pulled pork I've ever tasted. Here's me between the pig under the tarp and the sheep on the spit (I really liked that hat):

Once the pig came out, a friend of Jack Lockwood's used the shoulder bone to mash the meat and the fat together in order to maximize the flavor. I was surprised that the pig came out falling apart, but it smelled really good!

Here's Katie and I sampling Frank's infamous homemade beer - the best homebrew ever!

It was raining on and off all day, so Loren, Kevin, the drummer named Jeremy, and Reid jammed out under the tent.

And we got to take a huge plate of food home, which we're still working through.
