    WSM 18 again

    Well Jonas, that's hard for me to quantify because I really had not one bad experience with my SmokeFire EX4. It fired up every time I used it, without fail. I have nothing negative to say about my experience with it. I think the biggest thing is I just enjoy the process of tending the charcoal...

    Spirit E-310 2024 versus 2025

    I had the same dilemma a few weeks ago. I bought an E-210 in 2014 and loved that grill. Sold it in 2020 for patio construction to my neighbor and he is still using it. I looked closely at the 2025 E-210 at Ace and realized why it was cheaper. Because it IS cheaper. Not near as well built as the...

    WSM 18 again

    In 2010 I received an 18" WSM for Father's Day. I cooked on that thing for thirteen years. Then I got the idea that I wanted to try a pellet smoker so I sold my WSM a couple of years ago. I have made some really dumb decisions in my life and I count that as one of them. I had been watching...

    Is anyone watching the drama series Landman ?

    Landman is a good series especially if you like a little T&A. Billy Bob plays a great part, if you like him. I've been a big fan of BBT since Sling Blade. Just remember this is Hollywood and they do not know how to use a pipe wrench. But yeah, I'll be watching the whole season.

    Crock pot recommendations

    I replaced our CrockPot with an Instant Pot. Well, really I just added the Instant Pot because the crockpot is still going. I haven't tried my old crockpot recipes in the Instant Pot yet. I've had too much fun trying new ones. So my consensus is: they're both great.

    1989 NIB Kettle

    If it were mine, I would put it together. But that's just me. If the box was pristine I might think different.

    My BBQ Arsenal Addition

    Congrats, Richard. You are going to love that little grill. Funny you should mention leaks. I had put a new 1lb. cylinder on last week and found it empty the other day so I replaced it again and fired it up. In just a bit I saw a small flame at the cylinder threads. Took the cylinder off and...

    New WSM

    If any of the three sections are out of round they can be easily brought back to round. With a tape measure check the diameter in several places to determine the greatest number. With that spot straight up and down you can gently push down to adjust the diameter back round. Easy Peasy, just go...

    Anyone have an electric lawn mower?

    At some point in time I will also be looking at an electric mower and will choose one that is also compatible with a good snow blower so I can keep the batteries in service year around. My other electric tools and yard equipment are now Milwaukee so I will be taking a hard look at them...
