    Chain Bbq restaurants.

    Sonny’s is OK, but really depends on the location. Floyd “Sonny” Tillman is the founder and he lives not too far from me (have met him). He sold the chain in the early nineties. I believe he kept a few of the local location under his control around Gainesville FL. and ran them into the early...

    Fireboard 2 Drive?

    Have Fireboard 2 drive and love it for my Limo Jr. It controls a BBQ Guru Pit Viper fan. If I ever get a pellet cooker, it will have to be an LSG or Yoder as I wouldn’t want to use anything not using a Fireboard controller.

    Backyard offset smoker options?

    That Blue Smoke smoker is the best value for a top grade offset currently in production imho. It would be hard to pass that up if I was in the area.

    Cast Iron Skillet Reccomendation

    Lodge is a good buy for a new skillet. If you could locate a vintage Griswold or Wagner at a antique market or garage sale, they are better. They tend to be milled a little finer, sanded smoother, weigh less. You usually find them a with seasoning build up and not that pretty but if in decent...

    At An Impasse: Looking At High-End Kitchen Knives

    I love good knives. I have a block with about 15 different knifes in it. Several different length chef knives. Mostly have 4 star Henkel but have a Wustof a Shun and a few others. My recommendation to anyone looking at good knives is hold them in your hand, and see how they feel. Quality...

    Camp Chef Disappointment

    You are getting WiFi GHZ signals mixed up with cell phone signals. WiFi is either 2.4 GHZ or 5 GHZ. This has nothing to do with your cell phone being 4G or 5G. I repeat…. this has nothing to do with your phone being 4G or 5G. First of all, you need to make sure your cell phone is...

    Camp Chef Disappointment

    You will have the same connectivity issue with just about any pellet grill you get. It’s the router you have. Figure that out first before swapping grills.

    (HELP) Strong Smoke Taste On Chicken Wings

    Chicken (poultry in general) absorbs more smoke flavor than other meats and is easy to over-smoke. I go light on wood, and never use mesquite. I like a fruit wood like cherry or apple for chicken. I also would recommend cooking at 300 plus degrees for chicken. Like others mentioned, don’t...

    School me on why I need cast iron frying pans.

    My 100 plus year old Griswold is my pride and joy pan. We have a large set of Al Clad stainless and non stick that are really good and will also last forever. However, stuff like fried eggs and seared meats are just better off the Griswold, and the non stick properties of cast iron is better...

    What is your NFL Wildcard Weekend menu?

    Big time Raider fan that lived through their heyday (yes 40 some years ago). Wings, ribs and sausage on my menu. Probably will cook enough on Saturday, (Bengals vs Raiders is on Saturday)….to last through Monday.
