    One-touch cleaner from original Kettle for WSM?

    Dan, I don't have any problem maintaining high temps in my 18.5" WSM. I don't use water in the pan, but I DO use the pan - I just foil over it to make cleanup easier as Robert-R suggests. I've (accidentally!) gone over 375˚F with it, but on high heat pork butts I maintain 300-330˚F. It shouldn't...

    Widows 10 being forced on to my computer

    I hate to say it, but the Mac environment isn't much better in terms of "forced upgrades". They just do it more subtly - Apple does the "This OS is no longer supported" method of getting you to upgrade your operating system. Make no mistake...I am an Apple fan and user since 1990. I've had 5...

    I thought this was interesting.

    My grandpa used to do that on occasion...seemed to fizz it up a bit if I remember correctly (I was just a kid). He would occasionally add a raw egg to his beer too...:confused:

    I thought this was interesting.

    I brewed a batch of Bell's Two Hearted "clone" from Northern Brewer (they call it "Dead Ringer"). It was the best homebrew I did, but I only did 4 batches of homebrew before I gave it up. I wish I had the patience for it like Dwain does, but I drank it faster than I made it...:o

    Gambel Oak ?

    Russ, please let us know how it goes. Like Rich said, we have a lot of it in AZ, and since Diane & I are looking to move back to Durango area (hopefully this year) it would stay in our arsenal of smoke wood!

    What's on your Easter Menu?

    Barbecuing a pork steak for us to split and Diane is making potato salad and other sides to go along with it. I do the pork steak the way Dad taught me, and Diane is following my Mom's recipe for the potato salad...so it's kind of a family affair!

    Gas prices going down... down, down, down.

    When Diane and I started dating, we'd go fill up my Datsun 510 then hit McDonald's for lunch - 2 hamburgers, 2 fries and 2 chocolate shakes. I got change (lots of it) back from a $5.00 bill....

    Some birds and a question

    Pretty fast here too Bob, and I'm on 1.5 Mbps speed ("speed" is kind of a misnomer though :rolleyes:). Just curious - what were your camera settings...large JPG, small JPG, RAW, etc?

    I've walked 4 miles

    You get an "ATTABOY" from me Bob! I'm realizing (after my first year of retirement) just how much I exercised at the hospital...moving patients from stretchers to tables, walking all over to get them and take them back to their room, etc. Plus, we had Cody (our Rotty mix) at the time as well -...
