We all get it from time to time.


 
I am grilling out front right now. Because I keep the MM in the garage. Also, I think I posted something similar tot he OP, because of the accusations to those of us who are enjoying our pellet cookers as not being "real cookers" or cooks, or taking the lazy or EZ Bake oven way out.
In the end I would never disparage someone using gas, charcoal or offset stick burner in ANY way. Yet some of them choose to disparage on some of us.
Bottom line if you're taking the time to turn out good food outside, IDC how you made it. If it makes you and the people you care enough about to cook for happy. Who cares if it came off a pellet, grill, a kettle, a Komado, etc?
 
Guessing that guy was either paid well by Traeger or is about as gullible as can be. I got my Traeger when they were still pretty novel and made high quality grills. Was I excited? Sure, but not as ridiculous as that. It has its place, but it doesn't do anything outstanding. After getting back into charcoal grilling, I seldom use it. Hope he wasn't too excited about Traeger's overpriced pellets, rubs and sauces :) If so, they do make drugs for conditions like that.
I've run into guys like that in stores, and yes anymore there are so many brands doing pellet grills they've really quieted down brand wise.

Still, the guy doing the video is a comedian specializing in stereotypes.
 
his YT videos are quite funny. Midwest humor. Which I don't understand but find it kinda hilarious being a Coaster my whole life (East and West).
Many of my grills live on my front porch. I have a decent backyard, but almost no front yard. The thing is though that I cook outside rain or shine. Even once I finish redoing my back yard several of them will likely stay there for regular use, most likely my green kettle, the WSM, and the blackstone. Year round is where it's at.


Can I get an amen from anyone else who has ever ignored a tornado siren to finish grilling some chops or such? 🤠

Yes, It was our conversation before, and I thought of you the minute the kamado guy interrupted my conversation. Thought I might try to take a negative and turn it into a positive.

By the by, what's on the menu tonight my friend?:wsm:

I did boneless skinless air chilled chicken thighs from Costco. On the MM. Good ol' S&P (a little too much LOL), but I set the grill on the P1 smoke setting (which typically runs about 195 with lots of smoke). Left them for about 25 min like that. Then cranked the grill to 400. Turned them over and left them run at 400 and believe it or not that grill was putting out smoke. Left them on about 25-35 min forgot for sure. They came out nice and mahogany colored, great smoke on them. Juicy and nice.
Yeah I think I could have done them nicely on either the Q320 or the Wolf. But, damn I do love that woodfired taste. :D
Still having trouble typing and seeing the computer screen. Had my yearly diabetic eye exam and the very deep dealation about noon. Still having trouble seeing. At least the doc found everything in good order

Sorry to hear that about your vision, but very glad you'll be with us for the foreseeable future.

Sounds like you had a good meal last night. Would go very nice with some fresh roasted Brussel sprouts.:)
 
Being a Friday in Lent and not finding any good fish yesterday I’ll likely not be grilling tonight. But, tomorrow it’s a nice pork loin, scalloped potatoes and sautéed yellow squash! If I go out and find fish, maybe the options for tonight will change.
I’ve ignored all kinds of things when grilling, what’s a tornado siren?🤣😉

I know what you mean about the dilation Larry, they can be really bothersome but, at least they go away!

To the catholics from Shakespear.
"To cedar plank salmon, or not to plank... That is the question! Whether tis nobler to don yonder apron, wielding tongs against flare-ups amidst a sea of glowing embers, and by spritz bottle quench them? To plate; to eat; no more on a Friday night that tender beef for which the heart aches..."

AMEN! Tornado siren blaring, but I was not about to
Leave without my ribeyes. 😁
(Turned out to be a non-event, missed us by miles, but a little tense for a few minutes.)
 
If anybody really ignored a tornado siren, would they still be here to talk about it?
I am. But hey, don't tell anyone.🤫 northwest Ohio isn't in the middle of tornado alley, but we do get em from time to time. Most of the daylight ones you'd be out for you just look up in the sky and check for rotation.

Closest one I've had to my house was about three to four miles away. Wrapped the limbs on some 30 foot tall trees all the way around their own trunks. Truly a crazy sight to see.
