Bodyweight challenge - Day 12

So what was for Thanksgiving?  Traditional turkey with all the trimmings? 

We aren't hugely fond of turkey so we changed things up a little.  I talked with the butcher at Kroger, and had him make us up a 12 rib Crown Roast of Pork.  Here it is before we worked on it.

I made a paste of fresh Rosemary, Sage, Oregano & Garlic combined with Olive Oil & Pepper, rubbed it all over  - could have had a little more, but it worked.  Into the oven at 325 for 3 hours - and it almost didn't make it off the cutting board!  Here is the finished product - with maybe a small piece or 2 missing!


We had this with the rest of the menu we posted earlier this week.  Pistachio butter & beets - wow!

What was your favorite dish from yesterday?  Post it to the comments - or better yet, bring it to the Holiday Party on the 12th!

  • Layered sweet potatoes and pecans with a little honey drizzled on each layer. Then a cinnamon, nutmeg, vanilla extract, honey, pecan crust on top…

    So good. But not as good as the Murph that morning. Feelin that today.

  • that standing rib roast looks tasty! I got treated to a grass-fed Rack of lamb, baked s. potato, and garlic spinach.. caved in and had a slice of pecan pie but managed to make it in to Potmac XFit fro a sweet butt kicking.

  • Looks fantastic and the paleo sides sound wonderful…. however, I’m not telling anyone what I ate! grin
