    Might be up your way to look at a project before long. I'll give you a holler once I know.

    That would feed an army. Gretchen is Louisiana raised, and oxtail spaghetti was staple. I’m guessing a South American dish also.

    She’s bemoaned the rising prices of cuts of meat and offal that were once family feeders - now double or triple due to trendy cuisine.

    Alligator the same.

    So, track jaw that moves around all the time is 80-ish sits on PC220 undercarriage looks OK on purple if it'll load right on the deck.

    Should work. Might be tight on the neck on my trailer as the deck is only 21'. The jaw end might be high enough to clear though.

    You remind me of a couple in Round Rock TX, He is from NO, she from Caddo Lake, and their side gig is a restaurant in RR.
    The Louisiana Longhorn. Half longways split of a building, cozy, super help, and what foods you conjure up to order,

    Have Gretchen check this link and may recognize some of the dishes.. https://www.thelouisianalonghorncafe.com/

    I've got 24 in the well and sometimes have to run it up on outrigger boards to clear the rear so I can get it back farther so I can hook the neck.
    And then move it forward.
    1st world problems. Lol

    Crushing equipment is a PITA. Heavy, low, conveyors, hoppers....

    Yes - she’s familiar.

    Authentic is in the eye of the beholder - we visited a place local a few years ago that touted itself as ‘Cajun cuisine’ - to the guy’s defense,

    Battering and deep frying anything will bring a crowd, who doesn’t like fried chicken?

    Unfortunately the majority of the menu was simply battered and oil fried ingredients - and Missouri is too far from a coast to advertise ‘fresh cooked seafood’.

    I think I’d like to take a culinary tour before I die here - with some deep research from folks like you and others here that have found every hidey hole on every corner and nook and cranny along the way.
