Sorry y’all, no recipes or write-ups this week. Or next week. Still working on updating the posts – clean things up a bit. Here’s what’s on my list:
I’m going to take these two weeks and get some of the older posts up to standard. I’ve adopted, and it seems to work relatively well, the “Prep Table/Process/Result/Recipe” method. I’ve integrated the Recipe cards for a lot of the newer posts, so I have to go back and do it for the older ones (Jeez, if I can even remember). Only three left to go, I think!
There’s also some formatting issues that need addressed. The entire site is done on a MacBook, after work, between 6p-10p for the most part – largely aimed at the desktop view. Most of you float in from Instagram – or your phones – and it’s really not the best look on mobile. I’ll try to get some of that squared away and looking clean too.
I’m going to try to do some migrations to other platforms. I wanted to integrate Facebook with the Instagram – but honestly, I hate the big tech conglomerates. It bothers me to give them any kind of publicity. I’m going to shitcan the Facebook idea and slowly move away from Instagram – but I’m not there yet.
If there’s any sincere interest into contributing to this venture, I’m open to giving you some space here to add your cooks. Obviously right now, we have my cooks (smoked foods/blackstone) on Fridays, my wife’s Veggie foods on Mondays – so if someone wants to post some cooks – I’ll listen. It’s a hobby, not a business – so definitely doing this just for fun. Let me know if you’re interested, we’ll talk: forensicbbq@protonmail.com
MrsForensicBBQ and I have donated or swapped over 100 stickers all over the world: ????????????????????? – y’all are awesome.
Just for shits and giggles, if you find one of our magnets (yes, they’re magnets) and end up visiting our Instagram/website – tell us where you found it and show us – we’ll send you something special! Could be a t-shirt, a bottle of the homemade BBQ sauce, some seasonings – don’t know yet! Be the first and find out!
Also going to take the time and spend it with MrsForensicBBQ as we get ready to dig into 2022. We’ll see just where this goes – life is getting pretty difficult work-wise, so we may be shifting a little bit (vague, I know – but deal with it)
Thanks for another great year! While you struggle through the ForensicBBQ downtime, here’s a Table of Contents of cooks to date!
