Maryland Style Bull Roast Recipes

Steps:

• Also need 1 Large Pot with a raised rack at least 2-4 inches.
• Over high heat in a large crab pot with a raised rack bring equal ammounts of Cider Vinegar and water or beer to a boil.
• (The total ammount should be just below the raised rack about 2-3 cups of each Vinegar and water or Beer.) Mix equal ammounts of"Old Bay" seasoning and"Kosher" Salt (About 2 cups of each to start) Add 4-6 LIVE JUMBO male crabs for each layer and add the combined "seasoning" on top of the crabs.
• Continue with Crabs and a layer of seasoning until at least 12- 14 crabs are in the pot, cover and steam 25- 30 minutes.
• with the lid on!
• (Chop off anyones hand that tries to lift the lid too soon!) When done use tongs to lift out steamed crabs to a table covered with newspapers or brown paper.
• Repeat until all Crabs are Steamed, changing the vinegar and water and adding new "seasoning" to each new batch.
• Serve at once with extra "seasoning" and "crab mallets" to break open claws.
• Or store in brown paper bags in the fridge until needed 4-5 days (NO LONGER!!!).

Steps:

• First you need a backhoe to dig a hole big enough to accommodate several cords of wood.
• Use hardwoods, apple is good and fenceposts are acceptable, but do not use treated or creosoted wood.
• Once the wood has burned down to a bed of coals several feet deep, about four hours, prepare the beef: cut into large chunks of 15 pounds each, wrap in butcher paper and then in wet burlap bags; tie securely.
• Toss the packages directly onto the coals, quickly cover with a large sheet of tin, and cover the tin with dirt. The secret is to keep out oxygen so the coals do not burn quickly and burn the meat. The beef is left to cook- allow 12 hours for this.
• After the 12 hours are up uncover the bundles; they will not be charred.
• Unwrap, slice and serve with baked beans, fresh bread, salads, pickles and for dessert 60 assorted pies and 30 cakes.
