Munchies BBQ Sauce.

Getting aside from random crashes and the goings on inside my crazy mind, here's a recipe of the bbq sauce I made the other day.. be aware most measurements are approximations i was kinda just making it up as i went along.

Start with
1 red onion- dice, saute till almost caramelizing. then add
1/4 cup ketchup
1 cup honey
Tbs dijon mustard
tsp chipoltle
2 Tbs apple cider vin
1-2 Tbs siracha "rooster sauce"
then dice about a 1/4 of a fresh pineapple, w/o core, cook in the sauce for maybe 10-15 min, then
transfer to a blender or use an immersion blender and you are done.
oh, add a pinch of salt and a touch of black pepper too. booyah

I fought the tree and the tree won

a new step into the dark

So i had a personal revelation yesterday.... I quit my job... I grew tired of dealing with boss' that had no clue as to how things should properly run at a bar, and would not listen to any help or reason... i was by title the bar manager, but was micromanaged every step of the way, no matter how small or ridiculous. from being pulled aside during a busy friday night to be told that i had to empty the water from all the candles, and only put one tablespoon of water in them, to then being told to fire all of the barbacks. who make it possible for a bartender to constantly make drinks... I refused.. asked for one week to show them that things could run better my way... one co-worker walked. I had that epiphany that it was time... I laugh, picturing the owners and the inept/idiotic bartender who is now the senoir most trying to figure out the ordering.... lol... lucky for them i decided not to drop a deuce in the ice machine....
