As the weather turns a little cooler having a roast for Sunday Dinner is a great menu choice. One part in prepping a roast is often tying it together with a BUTCHER Knot. This knot is part of the 30 Day Knot Tying #Coach4adayChallenge

My son Geoff Kenney who is an Executive Chef at Knoxville Restaurant called Harvest has demonstrated this knot in our kitchen several times but I had never tried it. Found a pretty good tutorial video on YouTube and I practiced for about 15 minutes before I got it mastered. Below you will use a picture of my BUTCHER knot. Instead of butcher string I practiced with red paracord on a frozen pork loin. Do NOT ever wrap meat being cooked with paracord use butcher string.

The video I followed is by Steve Lamb who happens to be a smoking and curing expert

If you just want to follow a step by step instruction Animated Knots has a great presentation also.
