    Bears’ 46th Wedding Anniversary Dinner

    Beautiful flowers and anniversary meal papa bear! 46 years is a mighty long time, I am very happy for you and Mrs. Bear. My anniversary was also Dec. 27, but we only lasted 7 years. I always say he got the seven year itch, unfortunately it required antibiotics.

    Got wood?

    I definitely would not use straight up cherry for the whole smoke. I like to start out with cherry then switch to something milder like pecan or apple. Stick with your favorite rub. Good luck and happy smokin'!
