Just now heard we lost Hall of Famer Ryne Sandberg :( this is REALLY REALLY sad news

So what sometimes happen when you live around a lot of farms. I heard what sounded like a private plane going crazy. Was an aerial applicator hitting the farms on the west side of the road that boarders our subdivision. Sorry for the shaky quality but a fun watch

Well they're at it again. Giving away these little gems for $279!

Just found out Ozzy Osbourne has passed away :(

Putting here because last night was not supposed to be filet for supper but Chilean Sea Bass on the Ninja. I'd made my special EVOO/lemon zest and Mediterranean herb marinade, I was going to seal the 2 delicious little fillets in my new chamber sealer with that for about an hour and put those on...

Did a couple beef tenderloin filets on little Ninja. No flames no fire breathing beast, just darn good little steaks :D

So as noted in the other thread I did in fact order the Aiden and it came this past Thursday. As noted earlier it's size compared to the Breville Precision and OXO 12 Cup seems absolutely miniscule. It can get VERY granular on control. Regulating flow rate, temp adjustment on the fly, with the...

Some may know back in fall of 92 we bought a Genesis 2 red head. Had it for years. In 2017 when my then new son in law and my daughter bought their house I gifted them my old Genesis 2 (by then converted to a 3) with addition of a side burner. When they had the house re-roofed the roofers...

So, some might recall back in Feb we did a trip to Kalahari for wife's 70th. Whole family up there. Hating hotel coffee as much as I do I stuffed a smaller full sized grinder and a little 5 cup Cuisinart coffee maker into our luggage. Well, as it turned out, even though they made fun of me, much...

So it was pouring rain here tonight and we had an interesting thing. Our own backyard rainbow. No pot of gold though I looked :D

Well I slipped up on my Chilean Sea Bass tonight. Brutally over cooked but still moist flaky and deeeeeeeelish on the Ninja. IDK if it's the Ninja or the fish itself. But that little Ninja is a darn fine fish cooker

We're gonna be invaded for late Father's Day Saturday. Son in law will be taking me and daughter's partner out to the range for Father's Day in Marengo. (I definitely need the time and practice since I am going for my recurrent training and requalification later this month. So, late tomorrow...

As the title suggests, beef back ribs on Member's Mark (it was feeling neglected) :D so I put a couple of beef backs on there Cooked at 275 until just under 200 internal. Resting now for 10-15 min. That thing never ceases to amaze me at how good a pellet grill it is. Pics to follow

Have been having this love/hate thing going on with my OXO 12 Cup brewer. It's a really cool beast and one of the things I love is how it's laid out. The control panel on the "skinny" side with flip up lids for the filter basket and water tank. Has a huge shower head and brews in a manner to...

So, I've written re that I've been able to acquire 2 Baratza Forte grinders. One the "AP" variety with ceramic burrs and the other (the first I acquired) the BG with steel burrs. Well the one with steel burrs is older and the grind adjustment levers are incredibly stiff and hard to operate while...

I've know about this for years just came across the actual photos of the people

Put a full slab on Big Z today. Keeping it simple 245 watching for 205 internal. Famous Dave's rub, and will glaze with Kinder's black cherry/chipotle sauce.

I was perusing their web site in preparation to buy a chamber vac sealer today. Found a couple intriguing things. If this stuff is built to the same quality I've been seeing on other things I've bought from them they gotta be pretty darn good...

So was at Costco Tuesday and I keep seeing their rather large boxes of fresh sausages (brats and Italian). While they look good I've always been hesitant to trust them. Usually going instead for ones made at one of the 2 meat shops I frequent. But, curiosity got the better of me, had my brother...

Anyone have experience with these? Been looking into these Vevor units. Seem to be quite the deal. And simple enough for even me to work with. We have a Food Saver unit. Thing has frustrated me to the point been relying on my wife to seal the freezer packs. Looking at this particular model...
