{Katie’s Kitchen} Easy Crockpot Pulled Pork

Brought to you by Stroup Flooring America
I love dump and go recipes! This is one of my favorites. We had friends over last weekend and I was able to toss the pork in the crock pot and leave it all to cook for hours without having to mess with it.
I used 3 pounds of boneless pork shoulder and put that into my crock-pot. On top of the meat I added paprika, minced garlic, black pepper and salt; I pressed it into the meat. Then pour in 1/2 cup of water, and half 16 oz. bottle of BBQ sauce (pick your favorite).
I also added a few drops of liquid smoke.
Cook on medium for 6 hours or low for 8-10 hours. Shred and enjoy!
Ingredients
  • 2 – 2.5 lbs. boneless pork loin
  • 1/2 onion sliced
  • 1 Tbsp paprika
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 16 oz. bottle BBQ sauce
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced or pressed
  • 1/2 cup water

Interesting People #77: Oh Crit!

This local improv D&D comedy group is opening up the 2nd Annual Boys & Girls Club of Frederick County Comedy Night! DM Matt and Adventurer Noelle stopped by to give me all the details about death balloons, creating moments, and enjoying nerdy improv.

Choose your hero, choose their curse, and watch out for death balloons! Improv comedy theatre with an RPG twist.

Oh Crit! started in 2017, when Callan Holderbaum and Jordan Patterson met and bonded over a conversation about Dungeons and Dragons (D&D) and improv at a mutual friend’s art show. Jordan, a Dungeon Master (DM), and Callan, an improviser, came to realize the parallels between D&D and improv.

In the few months that followed, they set out to create a show that stays true to the art of improv, captures the essence of D&D, and is a whole lot of fun to watch. They knew there would be dice, PCs, NPCs, monsters, fantasy races and classes, swords, magic, and trickery; but how would it all fit together?? Countless hours were spent in verbal and physical combat trying to suss out the formula for the perfect show.
Joy and Wonder not guaranteed.

They eventually emerged from the workshop with an hour-long show that follows an adventurer in a fantasy world. The DM would preside overall with his 20-sided die and narration superpowers; the performers would improvise everything after getting a race, class, and curse from the audience; a quest would emerge; drama would unfold, and the audience would weep with joy and wonder.

They held an open audition and gathered a team of improvisers of all stripes. The team came together, practiced, sweated, and cried as one. Oh Crit! was born, and the world has never been the same.

{Baby Blog} Radiothon With a New Perspective

The St. Jude Radiothon this year was a completely different experience than any other year. When you’re a mom or parent…it’s an entirely new ball game.

The emotions are different and the stories felt more real than ever before. I found myself listening to these tragic stories and putting my little Lily into the shoes of these sick children and feeling the hurt and fear that these parents were describing in each of the story songs. I definitely shed a lot of tears over those two days last week!

It just made the radiothon that much more important to me. I’ve been to the hospital and have seen the sick children that are being treated, but now I feel so much more pain for the parents that are going through cancer treatments with their children.

It’s not all sad, though! Knowing that there is a place in the world like St.Jude Children’s Research Hospital brings me so much comfort and hope for these sick kids. I know it is the best place for them and they work so hard to get them healthy and back to their normal lives…just being kids.

I definitely look at Lily everyday knowing that we are SO lucky to have our healthy, happy baby and give her extra extra smooches because I can!

Thank you so much for your donations to our WFRE St. Jude Radiothon!
