Bev:
We are not from Cullman but Jasper, Al (about 30 miles south).
Thanks for the goat meat tips. The best seems to prepared it like we do deer
meat. We have more deer than goats. Good help from Ya'll folks.

I checked with Lehmons on line. A 33 gal "sugaring
kettle" costs about $1000.00. If you found one at an
auction I'm guessing it would cost much much less.
Maybe just go up and ask them what they would sell it
for.
with no kettle maybe heat water in one barrel and put
it into the one you dump the hog into?
