Very nice! I've been know to use the bottom of my WSM as a fire pit Paul

Submitted for your consideration... I went with an entire meal concept; starter, entre and dessert. For starter; Potato (Yukon Gold), cabbage and leek soup topped with lemon crema (fresh lemon juice and sour cream) and fried potato stick garnish and lime zest. On to the entre. Grilled...

Well done Shawn! Ribs look good and that view from your patio...wow. I'd be living out there. I now have patio envy . Paul

No experience cooking the heads, but if you're old school, they're used for tamales. Boil in seasoned water until the meat is very tender and then shred it and add to the masa. Paul

Potatoes! Flexible, yet certainly challenging to elevate them to the IC level....hmmm...I like it. Point of clarification please...will 'sweet potatoes' be allowed? My understanding is that sweet potatoes are not true potatoes. That's fine. Just want to make sure of the rules. Thanks, Paul

I use a turner (a spatula is really a different tool imo) like this for much of my cooking. Haven't experienced any serious scratching on my ss saute pans. It's very flexible and strong, drains well and obviously won't burn. I also have some old nylon turners where a real sturdy tool is...

Wolgast, Nice tacos and love your nails in the last shot ! Paul

Chris, The variation in size is an obvious factor when dealing with this natural product. I'm not sure if different brands 'sort' there product to yield more consistent sizes. Check out The Naked Whiz for a good database on lump reviews. Paul

Welcome Dave, Here's one option; Dry Cure. Paul

Len, Meat looks good! What was your target cook temp? Opening the lid will pump the wsm with oxygen thus creating a spike in temps. For a cut of meat like a rib roast, I wouldn't be too concerned about nailing the cook temp. How many lit coals did you start your minion with? Paul

Excellent. I have a nice selection of dried mushrooms. Thanks guys!

Bummer, Describe the sauce you were planning. The tomalley certainly adds a richness and unique flavor. The fish sauce idea can work, and definitely use the shells. Can you use eggs in your sauce? Some yolk might add richness. Paul

I will be making Kevin's Garlic Soup tomorrow and will need to alter the recipe for a veggie crowd. I plan on subbing veggie stock for the chicken. This will change the depth/richness of the soup somewhat I'm guessing. So I'm looking to add something else that may help it if necessary. I'm...

Bob or Rita Does Kirkland list a source for their oil? US,Italy, Spain, etc? What's interesting or scary depending on your pov, is that Best Value ranked high also if I'm reading the report correctly. Best Value is a Wal Mart brand I believe. Paul

I bought a bottle about a year ago that provided a 'tracking number' on it. You could enter the tracking number on their website and it provided satelite pics of the orchard, date the olives were harvested and bottled. Don't know if there was anything blended into what was advertised as...
