    Butterflied Chicken & spuds

    Just had a snack of the spuds.  Nuked it for 30 seconds and they came out perfect. Never been a fan of the breast meat, because its too dry.  Not these birds.  Kid, wife and I been snagging pieces out of the frig to munch on all night. And that sutle smoke flavor is addicting.

    When life throws you lemons, you make lemonade!

    Good thing you caught it. Lost a secretary a few years ago and she left behind a 12 year old daughter because she never went for an exam. You got some knee time comming from NoVA for a quick 100% recovery.

    Stuffed Baked Potatoes?

    Thank you 5lakes & cowgirl. I had an empty shelf in my smoker that looked bare.  Got three spuds in there now and in a couple hours take your advise on stuffing. I'm going for the ol' standby - kosher salt, fresh ground pepper, sourcream, butter, and bacon bits.

    Injector help please

    Been using an elcheapo plastic one I found for $3.  Works nicely. Found another for less than $2 so bought it as a back up.  But when I get a coupon and an order list, I'll probably get the SS Cabelas one.
