INteresting response there. I have found that the best way to cook herb is to throw whatever you are using into a pot of bubbling butter. I usualy use crap weed and all my sticks and stems I save. Stick and stems probably dont have too much THC in them, but I figure, what the hell. Lets say, 2 sticks of butter into the pot. Get it hot and bubbling, then lower the heat to a low simmer. Throw the bud in there (Chop it up beforehand), let it simmer for 30-40 minutes. It will STINK, and its a long time to watch and stir the butter. BUT, after 30-40 minutes, you will have what you need. I suggest you put on a movie or tv show that you can watch and get up fropm every 5 minutes or so to stir the butter. Anyway, once that is done, grab a beaker or a heat resistant beer glass, or SOMETHING to hold the hot butter in. Rubber band 1 or 2 coffee filters on to the mouth of whatever jar or container you are using, and slowly pour the liquid weed/ butter mix into the coffee filter. Patience and slow pouring will leave you with a residue free, emerald green butter liquid from HEAVEN. Use it in brownies, on toast, in cupcakes, in a shake, in your grits or oatmeal. It will get you GOOD AND STONED, but takes about 30 minutes to an hour and a half to get you stoned, according to your particular body type. I'm, assuming that if you put this weed butter in the fridge (I always just threw it into a batch of cookies or brownies so I dont know) that it will gelatinize again, although I could be wrong. A nice alternative to smoking, and easy to do with patience, plus NOTHING gets you ripped like injesting weed. Hits you like a ton of bricks.
