Brunswick/Portland bkfst, lunch AND dinner

thank you all...sounds as though I have some good choices for our trip the last week in Feb (afraid El Camino will be closed)

Brunswick/Portland bkfst, lunch AND dinner

yes thanks, I did read all those threads but was hoping for more targeted local knowledge, especially for Brunswick. Chowhounders have always come through, so I'm hopeful for some additional guidance.

Brunswick/Portland bkfst, lunch AND dinner

Husband and I will fly in and out of Portland , so we need suggestions for one weekday lunch and one weekday breakfast. We are seafood nuts, and very interested in the locavore Portland scene.
Then we will be in Brunswick for several breakfasts, lunches and dinners. Close to Bwowdoin is best, but we can drive 20 minutes or so for a really worthwhile meal.
Thank you in advance for any Chowhound guidance.

pork shoulder in crock pot

My first time doing pork shoulder, and am also new to crock pots. Aiming to do bbq pulled pork. I've dry rubbed the 7 lb shoulder...huge fat layer on bottom. Should the shoulder go in the crock pot (for 8-10 hours) fat side up or down? Does it matter? Also, throw in a cup or so of beer on the pot with the shoulder? Thanks for advice!
