    My Weight Loss Journey

    Thanks for sharing that. It is very hard. There’s no easy way to do it. Even though the ups and downs happen I’m glad to hear you keep attacking it. For me, the battle is fought in the grocery store. You can’t eat it if it’s not in the house. That’s not easy because I really miss Doritos! Go...

    My Weight Loss Journey

    As I talk with others who’ve done this a common pattern is folks finding their own way, learning to listen to their bodies, and doing what feels right for them. And, it really doesn’t matter what you eat it’s just eating less and being more active, consistently.

    My Weight Loss Journey

    Some days it feels like a war of wills. But you’re right, you get used to it and then even sort of embrace it. Our entire pantry changed along with many other things. And you’re right, it is a lifestyle change, more so than I thought.

    My Weight Loss Journey

    I know the resolve of it never coming back. It’s so much hard work that now it’s worth the effort maintaining that to have to do that weight loss thing all over again. Congrats on the 74 lbs. that’s amazing.

    Whats your secret ingredient?

    I couldn’t believe it but our grocer had the sauce. So what do I use this on?

    My Weight Loss Journey

    About 20+ years ago I lost the use of my right lung from a car accident. I was a normal weight until then. That accident began a weight gain journey that put me over 300lbs. At one official doctor’s scale I was at 305 but I was over that number for sure in the months before that weigh-in. In...

    I got the pre-made rub. It’s good stuff.

    Whats your secret ingredient?

    Wait, what?!? They make a sauce? I wish I didn’t know that. A splash of vodka and you’ve got a Bloody Tajin.

    Whats your secret ingredient?

    We hosted Swedish exchange students for years. I learned from them to add a touch of plain old soy sauce to any cream sauce. It adds an umami flavor that doesn't taste at all like soy sauce if added in small amounts. I wouldn't have thought of that in a million years but they all did it.

    I am addicted to the stuff. The tang is what makes it so great. Big Kudos to Tajin!

    Hi from Ohio

    Welcome, from California. There's a bunch of us Pellet Poopers on here that would love to help. What kind of rig did you get?

    Jeff's Rub & The Best Ribs of my Life*

    The thing is, they go bad after a while and lose their punch. I discovered this with a big can of Lawry's I had. It turned almost white and didn't smell like anything. It's fun to have a collection but this stuff needs to be used and I don't make or eat enough smoked meat to keep ahead of it all.

    KnottyWood Pellet Issue

    They're made in Woodland, just NW of you. It's a bit maddening their price isn't better for being local.

    Cooking wild turkey

    I’m curious how they taste compared to what we’re sold in the stores. Is there a big difference?

    Piedmontese Picanha Gift

    Saint Robert does it again. He’s like Meat Santa. That cook is a fitting tribute to his generosity. This made me smile a lot.

    KnottyWood Pellet Issue

    I’m a very long way from LJ HQ so it’s not easy to find. The closest dealer is over an hour away and I’m happy to pay $15 a bag on sale. KnottyWood is local and it’s everywhere in NorCal and, ironically, the same price.

    Thanks for all the kind comments. For whatever reason I put the worst picture in this post and never caught it. And then it ends up on the spinner. Haha! Here’s a couple better shots. That red is not an editing trick. They actually looked like that for a couple of hours before the bark...

    Spicy Coppa Out of the Cave

    Wow! Impressive. I can smell the earthy amazing scent and know just what that tastes like. Too bad they don't last very long.
