    Anyone good with car stereos?

    I've been using Kenwood's for years and have gone through several. I would Bench test it. Remove it from the vehicle, hook it up to 12V and test sound to a speaker and check all 4 channels. With the power interrupted there should be no mute, and all user programming should be lost. My Kenwood in...

    What’s the craze with smash burgers

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Yes-siree-bobcat-tail! IMO A smash burger has much more flavor and Juiciness when done right. Since I got my flat top the Mrs wants a smash burger every now and then. Double up the patty with some cheese and fixin's on a brioche and it can be a delightful experience. M2C

    Yet another McRib experiment

    I like the McRib. Did a thread on it a long time ago. Recently I found some cups of bbq sauce to dip my chicken nuggets in at our cafe at work and the bbq sauce tasted like what was on the McRib. I added it to my notes to try it in the future. It was Bulls Eye original BBQ sauce.

    NY strips can't do, is it just me?

    I put them in a glass baking dish, take two forks (one in each hand stabbing in an up down combination) and perforate the steak until its fully perforated (both sides). This helps tenderize the meat. You can add a small amount of baking soda on each side to further tenderize the meat but don't...

    Anyone worked with aluminum flashing ?

    IMO the aluminum wont stop them. An electric fence will. You can run a wire across the top of the pickets to a power supply. One or two zaps should do it and they'll stop.

After he finished telling his process I looked at the questioning coworker and said, now do you really want to know how to make ribs! he busted out laughing and the other...

    Sausage making 101 Using fresh meats

    I would like to take this opportunity and share how important it is to use fresh meats when processing sausages. I found the quality of the sausage depends on the quality of the meats used. With all the time and effort that's put into the process it can become disappointing when your results...
