Pickled Eggs

[Ken]

I've done hotdogs as well as chunks of ham, Cowboy. Just go light on the vinegar, if I remember correctly.

I'm really careful about doing anything like that with sausage. When I was in my teens, I ate some homemade sausage that a relative had canned (mason jars) and got sick as a dog - the kind of sick you remember like it was yesterday even though it's 40 years later.

I thought about this thread about 2:00 this morning. Got hungry when I was doing some paperwork, and had an instant craving for white rice and a side of kimchee. So I started up the rice cooker. Since I didn't have any kimchee in the house, I opened a jar of red cabbage and mixed in some shredded carrots, shredded hot peppers, 3 tablespoons of chopped garlic, some green onion, white vinegar, and 2 teaspoons of cayenne pepper. It was close - real close - to the taste of kimchee. Great light meal in the early hours of the day.

Thanks Ken! I'll stick the hotdogs! Never canned anything but would like to can some dogs to later be vacuum sealed for day hikes.

Hey, I heard about those kinds of places

Reminds me of the time I was riding in the back of a deuce and a half and ate a dozen pickled eggs and drank a six pack ....... oh nevermind. The results were nasty!

The rest of the story: I was going to sport parachute meet near the DMZ in Korea (2ID for you old Army folks). The reason I was riding in the back of the truck was to guard all the parachutes being transported. Fast forward; that afternoon, I was in a Huey with both doors open, sitting directly behind the pilot, at about 12,000 AGL over the Korea DMZ when it happened - the pilots found out it was me and ordered me out due to an aircraft emergency. Everybody in the helicopter had teary eyes, but I was the only one smiling. Oh yeah, the opposing parachute team accused me of cheating since they couldn't see the exit point.
