Definitely to big for anything OTHER than a shelter cover and to heavy when bundled with my sleep gear( a small reflective sided tarp folded to act as a barrier with a wool blanket on top while I rest under a 2nd wool)
It will DEFINITELY be getting cut and re-sewn into a more practical sized waxed canvas mat/roll, the adventure continues.
Been toying with the idea of a waxed canvas for both a bedroll option AND shelter option, so finally pulled the trigger and ordered a canvas tarp got my wax coming home with the wife.
Its one thing to KNOW 10 and 12 ft measurements, but its certainly another thing to actually see it, i know I can fold it down and get a nice double layer along with my blankets to keep me off the ground and now have increased my overall 'living space' and dry area shelter, but...god damn this feels ALMOST excessive....
poorly seared the roast, honey mustard, worcheshire and soy sauce, then coated with a dry mix i made in a mortar and pestle.
splash of whiskey
●remove from pot
●seared the onions, potatoes, and carrots as i cooked a couple handfuls of bacon and bone broth
●remove from pot place in bowl
●sliced a king oyster mushroom, some baby bellas, and half of one portobello. seared in the bits and bacon fat from step before with 2 cloves of garlic, some rosemary, tyme, and parsley.
splash of red wine towards the end let it simmer and reduce/thicken
●remove from pot
slice rest of portobello, rest of my bellas, and 2 more king oysters, another batch of bacon, a splash of bourbon syrup and whiskey, level off with some bone broth. one branch of rosemary.
●rested the tri tip over that layer fill space around the roast and cover with the previous fixings along with some small raw quartered potatoes and sliced carrots, top off with rest of my broth. low and slow for 6.5hrs
☆☆served on a roasted portobello mushroom cap, gills removed, resting on some mashed taters, framed by the fixings, coated with a generous amount of gravy made from the broth....next time I should remove the stems, maybe add some green things and more carrots....but it was filling, warm, mushrooms didnt turn to mush, roast was falling apart, and tasted delicious☆☆
