    😆 your microphone looks like 1970's shag carpet. That's pretty sad, lol. Those tacos looked delicious. Your daughter is naturally funny, that's a good part of her character. Enjoyed the video, though I wish it was longer. Love you all, Brenda.

    We had a mean one year old rooster that we processed recently. We put him in the smoker and he was tough as nails. So then we put him in the instant pot for 45 minutes and the meat was falling off the bones! He made some amazing mushroom chicken noodle soup! Give it a shot sometime!

    My mom had a few Buff Orpingtons that kept their flock going for a few generations. Every fall we’d have “chicken rodeo” and butcher all the rosters that had hatched out. They were mainly pot pie material but they ate! (I realize this all makes me sound old but I promise I’m only in my twenties 😆) Incidentally Orpingtons are also supposed to make a decent table bird so we’ve added them to our flock for flock security and better meat builds in the event we can’t by chicken from the store of a hatchery.
