Ohio Trip - Apple Sauce & Apple Butter

We stopped by the Masonic Lodge and watched the old men make apple sauce & apple butter. They also had some dried apples that Cody just loved!
The guys cooked the apples in the big copper pots and then ran them through the machine to make the apple sauce. The next day they made the apple butter with this homemade apple stirrer machine. It was pretty cool that they invented something like this - otherwise they would have stirred it with a big stick for 2 days as it cooked down. This way was much easier and efficient!
