Canter's Deli 419 N Fairfax Ave Los Angeles, CA 90036 https://www.cantersdeli.com/ As with my 2018 post about Langer's Deli, I am exercising my prerogative as moderator to include Canter's Deli in the BBQ Restaurant Directory even though it's not a barbecue restaurant because of Canter's famous...

Wood Ranch BBQ & Grill 25580 The Old Road Valencia, CA 91381 https://www.woodranch.com/ I had barbecue at Wood Ranch way back in 2002 and again last week while visiting Valencia. With something like 18 locations scattered across Southern California, the Valencia location is found in a suburban...

Not a big follower of his music, but he was quite a character. Died just 17 days after the Black Sabbath farewell concert. Timing like that makes me wonder if he was just trying to hang on long enough to make that concert date.

Horn Barbecue 9700 Railroad St Elk Grove, CA 95624 https://www.hornbarbecue.com/ While visiting Elk Grove for a family event, Mrs. TVWB and I stopped by Horn Barbecue for a 3:00pm lunch. This visit violated my rule that the best barbecue lunch is had right at 11:00am opening, and perhaps that's...

Daddy D's Southern Style BBQ 1243 N Goerig St Woodland, WA 98674 https://www.daddydsbbq.com/ https://www.facebook.com/p/Daddy-Ds-Southern-Style-BBQ-100053174777149/ Mrs. TVWB and I spent several days visiting friends near Woodland, WA and while there had lunch at Daddy D's. Looks like a small...

Oh, it's been thorougly hijacked. :rolleyes:

I've updated the index to include Jan/Feb 2025 through July/August 2025 issues. https://tvwbb.com/docs/cooks-Illustrated-index-1993-july2025.xlsx

We have our celebration on July 3…I won’t bother you with why…but it was smashburgers and spiral hot dogs and lots of other stuff. Lots of eating, not a lot of food photos!

I'm considering some refurbishment of my Summit 450 later this year. I will be going back and reviewing the details of Jon's restoration and getting inspiration and direction from it. :)

Yeah, I feel the same. The Outdoor Supply Hardware that replaced several of the old OSH locations in San Jose is about the same as before.

Yes. When I was a kid, the only reason we drove to Healdsburg was to go to the dump. It's changed a lot since then! :D

I don't think Ace steps in like that to rescue a store. Here's a long and interesting page from an Ace store/owner in South Carolina that explains the Ace coop model: https://www.lowcountryace.com/2024/02/16/who-owns-ace-hardware/

I get not wanting to drive a hellish 7 miles/30 minutes to buy a spare nut or bolt. But if I'm in the market for a special purchase like a grill and I'm seriously interested in Weber, I'll drive 30 minutes to check one out. I have personally driven way more than that to look at and buy a Weber...

Yes, Ace describes themselves as “the world's largest retailer-owned hardware cooperative.”

I think this annoucement affects only what they called the "independent home improvement channel" and not Walmart, Target, Lowes, Home Depot, and Amazon.

There's an Ace Hardware at 1605 N Alpine Rd, Rockford, IL. That's like 7 miles/16 minutes from the center of Cherry Valley. I used to drive 4x that just to go grocery shopping!

Not a problem, Mailchimp will not create a new newsletter subscription for someone that's already subscribed. :)

Saw this beast on the floor at Garrett Ace Hardware in Healdsburg CA. A mere $5299. The lid is super tall and super heavy, and contains an upper shelf that sits right under an infrared burner on which you could sear the chaps off a steak. It wasn’t powered up, I would have liked to play with the...

The Virtual Weber Bullet website turned 27 years old on June 12, 2025. To mark this milestone, I'm holding a prize drawing for a Weber Traveler Portable Gas Grill in your choice of Black, Blue, Red, or Stealth Edition--a $449 to $499 value depending on the color. One entry per person...
