    Auger Not Turning

    I am so living vicariously through ya'll. Granted, I spent several times as much on my smoker as most of you with pellet grills, but I have never had any sort of problem like these.

    Very Rare Tequila

    Hrrrm. Available locally..... and about a third the price of the Herradura.

    Very Rare Tequila

    There's legislation pending in OH that aims at that, by requiring clerks to break the seal on the bottle at time of sale for high value spirits. I'd be a bit surprised if it passes. Then again, I consider investing in rare spirits to be a fool's errand. We have a bottle of Herradura Seleccion...

    The Homer Depot is indeed selling them..... but go through the manufacturer's website. HD is making money......

    Never seen one of these

    Actually...... there's a few folks who've used Bryan Mayland's HeaterMeter controller (support forum hosted here, thanks @Chris Allingham) to build their own out of a Weber kettle. This is a kettle grill with a mounted controller with a fan & air shutter. This can take a lot of headache &...

    What are you cooking today?

    We've been told that they're both stuffed, and that he ate more than he had in the last 2 weeks. I'll take that as a win.

    What are you cooking today?

    One of our go-to dinners.... Smoked rib roast (salt, pepper, onion powder, garlic powder) Giada De Laurentiis' decadent mashed potato casserole (loaded with bacon, cheddar, mozzarella, parmesan cheese, butter & heavy cream, and a little parsley) Mom's knot rolls (a mildly sweet dinner roll)...

    Cool Thing 2 nights ago

    They sure as heck will drop down on turkey carcasses. And if these farmers are anything like the turkey farmers back home, they're just not concerned about losing a couple of birds out of a flock. Vultures aren't that much of a nuisance as I am pretty sure they won't kill birds, but will clean...

    We've got large vultures around here as well. Might have something to do with the turkey farms in the area.

    "Universal" mixers, Kenwood, KitchenAid, Ankarsrum

    <scratches head> I'd suspect that the website description is wrong, that item records were duplicated from another model and not updated appropriately. Obviously, the motor will be wound for 240v, but I'd expect the wattage to be nearly identical to 120v models to deliver the same mechanical...

    "Universal" mixers, Kenwood, KitchenAid, Ankarsrum

    From what I know of Ankarsrum, it's European in origin, and making it's way over the pond to the the USA. It's gotten some pretty strong recommendations here, and it does look like an interesting machine. We have a Kitchenaid, and the nose attachments I think are largely universal for decades...

    Cool lifting wheels

    IMO, that's a solution for a solved problem. I'd suspect that the mechanism is an overgrown version of a push button on-off switch. I'm also wondering about longevity, and the lever forces working on the mounting screws. In short.... I don't have an application for these.

    B&B Char-logs?

    I burned up a bag of the B+B competition char logs when I was seasoning my stainless grates. Odd odor, smelled sort of petrochemical-ish when lit. Burned LONG. 20 lbs. in the charcoal tray still had heat some 15 hours later. Lot of ash compared to lump. As soon as it had all cooled down, I...

    Is anyone watching the drama series Landman ?

    Medication will help with that problem.... or maybe those problems.....

    Lessee..... Casserole cookies (dates, coconut, walnuts, etc.) were made Sunday. The Pioneer Woman's Burgundy Mushrooms were made yesterday. This morning, roasted off bacon, and made Brazilian tapioca cheese rolls. Off to brunch with friends in about 45 minutes.
