Oh

I love stoner boys over alcoholic boys… I wouldn’t want a drunk client/collab but would encourage a stoner collab session. Ooh amazing.

Just an FYI.

This time of year can be truly joyous, but also truly stressful. Chores, errands, events, entertaining - there’s so much to do, it’s enough to overwhelm even the merriest of holiday merrymakers. Think of all those pesky relatives and shopping crowds to overcome. After all that, who wants to cook? Cooking for the holidays is no small feat - fortunately, in this as in so many things, cannabis can help. Make sure to have a little toke first as you whip up one of the recipes on our list.

A few brief notes for stoner chefs: edibles are a different ballgame, even for experienced smokers. Prepare your dishes with care and make sure you are aware of the potency and dosage per serving. Never give cannabis-infused food to someone without their knowledge and consent, and keep away from children and pets. If you are looking for a device to make your own cannabis-infused butter (aka cannabutter), the professionals at your local Beyond Smoke shop will be happy to assist you. Now relax and enjoy! Happy holidays from all of us at Beyond Smoke.

Cannabis Glazed Ham

Ingredients:

1/8 cup whole cloves

2/3 cup brown sugar

1 cup apple cider

½ cup orange juice

¼ cup cannabis-infused oil

¼ cup Dijon mustard

1 teaspoon cinnamon

¼ teaspoon ground cloves

Pinch salt

Smoked cured ham, 8-12 lbs

Heat oven to 300 degrees.

1. Place the ham on your work surface. Stud the ham with the whole cloves.

2. In a medium saucepan combine the brown sugar, canna-oil, apple cider, mustard, cinnamon, cloves and salt. Allow to reach a slow simmer, stirring frequently. The longer you cook the glaze the thicker it will. Allow the mixture to cool for at least 30 minutes.

3. Liberally brush the ham with the glaze. Bake for 1-2 hours, basting frequently. Allow to stand for about 20 minutes before slicing.

Cannabis-Infused Roast Turkey with Herb Gravy

Ingredients:

FOR THE TURKEY:

1 whole turkey (about 12-14 pounds), thawed and patted dry

1/4 cup cannabis-infused olive oil

4 cloves garlic, minced

1 lemon, halved

2 onions, quartered

1 bunch fresh rosemary

1 bunch fresh thyme

Salt and pepper, to taste

FOR THE HERB GRAVY:

Drippings from the roasted turkey

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

2 cups chicken broth

2 tablespoons cannabis-infused olive oil

Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions:

Marinating the Turkey:

Prepare the Marinade: In a small bowl, mix the cannabis-infused olive oil with minced garlic, salt, and pepper.

Marinate the Turkey: Rub the cannabis-infused oil mixture both inside and outside of the turkey. Place some rosemary, thyme, lemon halves, and quartered onions inside the cavity of the turkey.

Refrigerate: Let the turkey marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or overnight for better infusion.

Roasting the Turkey:

Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).

Prepare for Roasting: Remove the turkey from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature. Place it on a roasting rack in a roasting pan.

Roast: Place the turkey in the preheated oven. The general rule for cooking a turkey is about 13 minutes per pound. So, a 14-pound turkey would take about 3 hours to cook.

Baste: Baste the turkey every 30-45 minutes with the pan juices.

Check for Doneness: The turkey is done when an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the thigh reads 165°F (75°C).

Rest Before Carving: Once done, remove the turkey from the oven and let it rest for at least 20 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute.

Making the Herb Gravy:

Collect the Drippings: Pour the drippings from the roasting pan into a bowl, leaving the browned bits in the pan.

Make a Roux: Place the roasting pan on the stove over medium heat. Add the cannabis-infused olive oil and flour to the pan, whisking to combine with the browned bits.

Add Liquids: Gradually add the chicken broth, continuing to whisk. Bring to a simmer.

Simmer: Cook the gravy until it thickens to your liking, usually about 10 minutes.

Season: Season with salt and pepper. Strain the gravy to remove any lumps, if desired.

Serving:

Serve the Turkey: Carve the turkey and serve it with the warm herb gravy.

Cannabis-Infused Green Bean Casserole

Ingredients:

Two nine ounce packages frozen cut green beans, thawed (you can also use canned and drained green beans)

1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

¾ cup of crispy fried onions

¼ cup melted cannabutter

Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and place the green beans into a casserole dish.

Fry the bacon until brown and crispy, remove from the skillet and drain most of the grease from the pan, leaving just enough grease to cook the mushrooms.

Saute mushrooms until tender and season with garlic and onion powder.

Pour in mushroom soup and bring the mixture to a light boil.

Pour the mixture over the green beans.

Crumble the bacon on top and sprinkle in the cheddar cheese.

Cover with the fried onions then brush with melted cannabutter.

On Alternative Cannabinoids:

Unraveling Delta THC: From 0.3% Hemp Definition to Manufacturing Insights

In recent times, the discussion around Delta THC, particularly Delta-8 THC, has surged, with these cannabinoids becoming more accessible in states with strict cannabis regulations. The roots of Delta THC trace back to the commercial CBD boom, where the term "hemp" began to signify cannabis containing 0.3 percent or less THC by dry weight.

The 0.3% Conundrum

The 0.3 percent THC threshold finds its origin in Ernest Small's 1979 book, "The Species Problem in Cannabis: Science & Semantics." Small proposed this seemingly arbitrary number to distinguish hemp from cannabis due to the lack of taxonomical differences. The 0.3 percent rule later shaped the legal definition of hemp in the Agricultural Act of 2018.

Hemp's Legal Landscape

The 2018 Farm Bill transformed the hemp landscape, making it legal to grow hemp throughout the United States, provided it contained less than 0.3 percent THC. This legislation also paved the way for federally legal hemp-derived CBD products. However, marijuana, with more than 0.3 percent THC, remains federally illegal, while state laws on cannabis usage vary widely.

Vital Elements in Delta-8 THC Manufacturing

The production of Delta-8 THC demands meticulous attention to key elements:

Starting Material: High-quality hemp free from contaminants.

Extraction: Careful extraction methods like CO2 or ethanol extraction.

Isomerization: Controlled process to prevent unwanted byproducts.

Refining and Purification: Techniques like chromatography for a pure extract.

Testing and Quality Control: Rigorous testing to ensure purity, potency, and safety, with a growing body of evidence supporting the relative safety of Delta-8 THC.

Delta-8 THC: The Conversion Process

To produce Delta-8 THC, CBD is extracted from hemp, preferred for its low THC levels. Two crucial steps in the conversion process are isomerization and chromatography.

Isomerization:

Isomerization is the chemical process through which CBD is transformed into Delta-8 THC by rearranging its molecular structure. This reaction typically involves exposing CBD to a catalyst, such as an acid or a metal catalyst. This controlled process is essential for achieving a consistent and high-quality Delta-8 THC product. Isomerization is a pivotal step in the manufacturing process, facilitating the conversion of the non-psychoactive CBD into the mildly psychoactive Delta-8 THC.

Chromatography:

Chromatography is a refining technique used to purify the Delta-8 THC extract obtained from the isomerization process. This method separates different compounds based on their chemical properties. By passing the Delta-8 THC extract through a chromatography column, unwanted compounds can be effectively removed, leaving behind a more pure and concentrated Delta-8 THC extract. This refining step is crucial for ensuring the final product meets rigorous standards of purity, potency, and safety.

Exploring Other Cannabinoids

Beyond Delta-8 THC, the cannabis plant houses a plethora of cannabinoids, each with its unique properties and potential applications. THC-A, THC-O, HHC, and others have garnered attention for their distinct effects. THC-A, the non-psychoactive precursor to Delta-9 THC, is being explored for its potential therapeutic benefits. THC-O, a synthetic cannabinoid, has gained popularity for its purported intensified psychoactive effects. Hydroxyhexahydrocannabinol (HHC) is another emerging cannabinoid with reported euphoric effects. As the cannabis industry evolves, ongoing research explores the diverse uses and production methods of these cannabinoids.

In Conclusion

The journey from the 0.3% THC definition to the rise of Delta-8 THC unveils the complexities of cannabinoid regulation and production. As the industry navigates legal landscapes and explores novel compounds, acknowledging user experiences and the evolving understanding of safety considerations becomes an integral part of the conversation.
