We've accepted an offer. We've had our offer accepted. However, many a slip and all that. We'll see.

Is it just my mind or does a "pork pulling session" sound a bit dodgy.

What is it may i ask?

Well good luck with all that. Sounds like a done deal, this isn't the UK. Guardianista Acres is the future!

Barbecue. "Pulled pork" is a dish made from a large chunk of pig which is smoked for very many hours then shredded ("pulled") and served with a vinegar based sauce. We have a couple of smokers so we usually make ribs as well (they only take six hours or so).

I hope so. There are still conditions at both ends, financing for the buyers of our house, rezoning for us, so it's not as simple as all that.

Where have you all come from intially to be in canada. I am applying to go UK to Canada. This forum is such a fantastic find for anyone trying to apply to get out there. Without this forum I would have had so many problems and unanswered question.
Good Luck to everyone who has made it out there and good luck to the other like me still in application process

Great pictures and not a horses arse in sight.

I can't imagine outdoor cooking in that sort of weather though.

Indoor/outdoor temperature. You wouldn't catch me going out in that weather, just bring me some ribs, I'll carve and pour.

You confused me it's in Fahrenheit, a quick check tells me that's about -14.

Yes. Brisk. Ideally I'd like the inside in F, because it's above freezing, and the outside in C, because it's below, but such sophistication is not offered by that device.
