Eastern or Western? Don't worry. I like both!
Boy, I don't know that distinction. It's the vinegar based kind.
Western is ketchup (with lots of black pepper) based.
Eastern....MMmmmm...barbecue...Mrs g'nad has the ribs all prepped for the grill tonight...
I'll make sure we have plenty of water for you...wouldn't want you to go hungry...
Everything in moderation. Pints are acceptable on the weekends...
Sutherins Basting Sauce/ Marinade
1/2 Cup vinegar / 1/2 Cup cooking oil / 1/4 cup Worcestershire Sauce / 1/2 cup water / 1/4 cup brown sugar / 1/2 cup soy sauce / 1/4 tsp. red hot sauce / 1 tsp. ground black pepper / 1 tsp smoke salt (or 1/2 tsp. Liquid Smoke) and 1/4 tsp. garlic powder ( optional for beef or venison)
Mix all ingredients, marinate meat for 4 full hours if possible then drain meat. Bring remaining marinade to a boil in a pan (do not re-use it without boiling first), then use it to keep meat moist during grilling.
Here's a recipe for a 'Dip Sauce' for ribs or chicken wings:
1 cup ketchup / 1 c water / 1/4 cup brown sugar / 1/4 cup vinegar / 1 Tablespoon celery seeds or 1/2 Tablespoon celery salt / 1 Tablespoon chili powder / 1 teaspoon salt / a few drops of Tabasco or red hot sauce.
Mix all ingredients and bring to a boil. Can use as a baste for grilled meats or as a dip.
Enjoy!
One is made in the eastern part of the state, the other in the western part. I'm in the middle, so I get both kinds.
If you ever run into Constitution Day, billbears, or Phantom Lord, tell them that Eastern is the best unless you want to get into a barbecue war. :)
This is the easiest of the three questions: In the general sense he understood for the first time the true measure of the darkness they were fighting (considering all he had been through up until then, that may sound amazing, but for one as unprepared as Pippin was at that time to stare into the Palantir and "link" mentally with Sauron's darkness and power that would certainly have been a revealation).
In a more personal sense, I think he probably also meant he began to understand the weight and horror of Frodo's burden. The level of the power they were dealing with on their mission became clear to him. Even the Steward of Gondor and Saruman were driven mad by wrestling with Sauron in this manner, how much more a revealation this would be to someone as innocent as Pippin at that time.
For the other two questions, I too must flee to the source material.
Twelve minutes and counting......
