    SOLD: BESWOOD 10" Premium Chromium-plated Steel Blade Electric Deli Meat Cheese Food Slicer

    Yeah, I shared with Mark that with my original slicer, I would use a thick, folded-over, damp bar towel to clean the blade with the motor running, starting at the center of the blade and gently moving towards the edge, making sure to not push on the edge of the blade. I did this both front and...

    Easy battery change in Thermapen ONE

    I remember folks complaining years ago about janky battery doors/compartments in old Thermapens. The Classic Thermapen still uses a watch battery which is something I don't just have laying around the house. Things got better with the Thermapen Mk4, but still kind of a precious end cap that had...

    Spreadable butter with avocado oil.

    I've not noticed the butter/avocado oil product in the supermarket. If it's new to the market, it's probably the latest darling of the food scene. I'll leave it to nutritional experts to offer a judgment about which oil is healthier. Do we have any nutritionists in the house? :D I've been using...

    The Humor Thread

    No, it was the term "Illinausea" that caught my attention. I've edited others like "Kalifornia" in the past. Please no derogatory place names, I'm trying to keep things positive here. Also, I believe often there's political intent behind such terms, and we don't do politics here.

    Outlook is down world wide

    At first, I thought this was going to be a political post. The worldwide outlook is down. Glad that we're talking about Outlook email here. :)

    New Rub Ideas

    First of all, hello George Roth! Although you've posted off and on over the last few years, I think it's been 10 or 11 years since we've spoken...just about as long as those 10 year old spices that you need to toss out and replace with fresh! :D I replace mine every two years. I'm moving this...

    I just paid for a year's worth of forum hosting

    Hey, I want to thank everyone that's sent donations since my last update on Feb 5. You've pushed the total over the line so that the entire year's web hosting has been covered! A total of $1054 in donations, minus PayPal fees of $51.04, for a net of $1002.96. Any excess goes towards annual...

    Why I Returned The Anova Precision Chamber Vacuum Sealer

    Oh, sorry I misunderstood. I have no plans to do so, I assume they've got social media staff monitoring various platforms for posts and videos both pro and con about their products. Interestingly, when I contacted them, they did not solicit feedback on why I wanted to return the product.

    Why I Returned The Anova Precision Chamber Vacuum Sealer

    Correspondence is assigned to a specific Customer Service representative and signed by name, thus the first person singular "me". See the video at the top of this thread for my story of buying and returning the Anova Precision Chamber Vacuum Sealer.

    Why I Returned The Anova Precision Chamber Vacuum Sealer

    Update: I got a full refund for my returned Anova Precision Chamber Vacuum Sealer, there was no restocking fee or postage fee. Kind of a weird process, though. I waited two weeks for a refund and when I didn't get one I emailed asking for an update. While waiting for their reply, I noticed this...

    I just paid for a year's worth of forum hosting

    I have always tried to keep it reasonable. Believe me, I'm bombarded almost daily by folks wanting me to jam tons of ads, video ads, etc. into this forum but those emails go straight into the trash can. Maybe I'm leaving some money on the table, but I don't care. :)

    Shocked! Fruita Wood & BBQ Supply closing

    Bob, how would you compare it to Sharpe/Woodshed in Orange CA? I’ve bought from Sharpe a couple of times and it seems good to me. I only ordered once from Fruita, it seemed good, too. I’ve been using Sharpe to support a somewhat more local business and a fellow CBBQA member.

    Automate your WSM?

    Using all wireless components seems to be the big innovation here. Long term success depends on rock-solid wireless connections and build quality of the units. There are a few comments from existing owners describing connection problems, short battery life, a port that won't charge Apple...

    1880

    Mine didn't have the lower grate when I bought it, but it apparently existed. See the circled part below, part number 72200. That original cover is awesome, what a great piece! Please post a photo of the brochure, I assume it's the same as what I've got, but would like to confirm. And no, my...

    Hey guys, it's time once again for me to remind everyone that I'm trying to keep things classy around here, so please no penis, fart, poop, or boob jokes. Also no jokes that disparage woman. Thanks, Chris
