you get 10/10 for grill space utilization - that's for sure! The sides look good too . pasta and beans- that's good living in my book.

that looks really good - no skimping on the clams in your house!

Going through the ageing process of my parents had a profound effect on me - It made me realize the stuff I took for granted in my relationship with them both. It also helped me realize the importance of enjoying life to the fullest while we still can. The idea of getting out there and doing the...

I'd probably be a little leery of injecting cure if it contained sodium nitrite - i think if it was me doing it, it would be pretty easy to end up with an unequal disbursement of the salt? I've injected turkeys in the past (sans pink salt) and I recall while carving the cooked bird, being able...

your story reminds me of night we had when living in Seattle several years ago- We were awoken late by a ruckus outside, I looked out the window in our backyard and all I saw were some flashlights and little lights bobbing up and down near the ground? I couldn't tell what was going on, but then...

@Josh Dekubber - that was a nice score you made for your brother-in-law. The Cascahuin Blanco is our house tequila - and is really nice for the price point . Their high end stuff is simply amazing - Good job!

we're at a little higher elevation than you guys so probably so. it was 4 degrees this morning when I took the dog out. .... good call on the hoses....we put ours away in October each year

It's going to be chilly for the next few days, so I thought I'd make up some chicken noodle soup for lunches. One of the spoils of retirement is that you spin a chicken on a Tuesday morning! ..its cold out there! let it spin for about an hour and 20 minutes: cut up some veggies: saute...

looks great Andy - yeah, its going to cold around here for the next days .....!

we have a couple that are operational - one in the garage and one in the shop - the one in the shop really is more of decoration at this point- It does ring and is operational.. it just sort of a pain to use... old yeller in the garage: Woody in the shop:

'Redemption' - pretty appropriate theme this week with Bob Marley's 80th birthday earlier -- love the action shot of the saucing!

my sister in law tends bar at the one in Schaumburg - we like to make a stop when were back that way - lots of history for sure...

It's that time of year again - Sausage stuffing season! We did up a batch of Polish sausages this week - it went down something like this: We roasted 6 large heads of garlic and got them peeled up.... Pork shoulder was on sale so I grabbed a nice looking one and got it grounded up with a...

wait... does your hot tub get cable?

mamma mia!

Yeah, you should certainly follow up on that - when we redid our kitchen, the code here in WA state actually requires a dedicated circuit for the microwave. I wouldn't doubt if it was the same in CA - Good luck with the project!

yeah, cooking a roux for that long without burning it takes some practice and a whole lot of patience - we call it a '2 beer roux' here.... Your gumbo looks fantastic!

nice score.. Congrats! We've had our All-Clad set for about 20 years now, and still couldn't be happier with them -

looking good! you got a meaty, lean slab there to work with....!

as some rock guy once said, 'all good things in all good time'- I'm sure the perfect outdoor cooking space will evolve - The new digs look great! what a change....congrats!
