Today was all about lighting and growing our fire pit. In the morning, we gathered around the fire pit, which was lit by Dan in the morning. Afterwards, we began preparing Jamaican rice to go along with our Jerk chicken for lunch while working on foods like salsa for Thursday’s lunch. Later in the day when our fire dialed down we placed our lamb in it and covered up the pit to let it cook for the night. To round out the day, we also chopped more firewood to use in the smoker tomorrow.
“We still split more wood, since it was a fun activity and felt like it helped bring out my frustration, resembling that of a rage room.” – Leo M. ’28
“The fire was very nostalgic for me because it reminded me of its connection to my culture, and how growing up I would always attend barbecues with fresh ingredients and surrounded by greenery, similar to this experience.” – Bersu O. ’28
Low and Slow is getting better every day with new foods to try and dishes to make, and our culinary journey is not over yet!
