On 09/22/12 we held The Great 2012 Talk Like A Pirate Backgammon Tournament And Peg Leg Swill. The Peg Leg Swill took me from 4:00pm until 7 to fix and it was just super: basically chicken legs (Sue's idea for the 'peg leg') first browned and then cooked in a cilantro, pepper, onion, carrot, garlic, and chicken stock and white wine sauce for an hour.

I wasn't actually working all that time, but it was pretty constant from 4:00 to 5:30 to get the chicken browned, everything cut up, and the two components of the sauce cooked and ready.

Then around 6:15 after playing some backgammon and chatting with everyone on the deck, I came in and put everything together and got that cooking; then just had to 'swill' it around every 10 minutes or so.... Wonderful!
