I've been working on smoking a brisket all day. Been fighting with the fire half the day so we're running a little behind but it finally came up to the target temp and is resting now while the baked potatoes are cooking. I've only tried a brisket once before and wasn't too happy with how it turned out. Today's method involved a simple seasoning and wrapping it in foil half way through to really cook in those juices, so we'll see how it turns out.

Probably a turcockduckgoosen or something. I'm not sure though.
I had noodles and tinned mackerel for Xmas dinner (I live alone).
I plan on going to the supermarket for vegan Ben & Jerries and Mr Kipling iced Xmas slices Boxing day. I'll eat both in one sitting then fall asleep on the sofa.
My sorrow.
