KC does whiskey tango well. 90 deg at 9:00pm gonna be a hot one.

I was recently at Costco and found that they are selling USDA Choice packers for $1.89lb. I picked up a 10lb-er for this weekend. Finally, they have seen the light. (of the WSM smoldering)

I put on a 7lb whole brisket this morning just to find out a line of t-storms were moving thru. 60 mph winds and torrential rain. I love a challenge!
