I ate one of my chorizos, now 4 months old, yesterday and I'm still alive. This is definitely a workable means of storing meat in the desert; at least, pork.
Going shopping in El Paso with my neighbor this afternoon. Will have to sequester at least 30 pounds of charcoal to offset my contribution to the gas.
Bought a yucca baccata this morning on eBay. These "banana yucca" plants are supposedly native to this region but in all my travels I've never noticed one. The thin-leaved yuccas are all that I've seen growing around here.
