    Amazingly enough, my wife does listen to me

    After 30 years we've run out of idea's for gifts for each other. When one or the other of us makes a side comment it usually shows up as a birthday or Christmas gift, so long as it's affordable.

    Smoked Turkey Legs

    Great idea to part out the whole bird. The legs, thighs, and wings alone are $2.99 pound at the local grocery store.

    Chicken Fried Pronghorn Tri-Tip Mushroom and Swiss Sandwich on Homemade Butter Buns...

    Great looking sandwich. The marinade helped the flavor I'm sure. And those caramelized onions pack a ton of flavor. Nice work!

    Fresh Spring Rolls

    Nice looking spring rolls. Miso soup is a go-to for us. Easy to make and comforting. Miso made from scratch is a lot less salty then using the miso paste. The tofu looks like it's the medium or firm. We use the medium. The silken can fall apart easily. Good job!

    How long do collagen casings last?

    I Just received a shipment from B&P sealed in a large plastic bag. Once I open it I'll need to deal with storing the rest in a bucket. What is your brine solution and what is the percentage of salt used?

    Baby backs and over the top chili!

    It's always fun playing with a new toy, albeit a bit frustrating at times. The ribs and chili both look great.

    French Onion Soup, My Way

    To cook for someone you care for elevates the food. Nice bowl of onion soup.....

    Italian sausage, mozzarella stuffed and bacon wrapped!

    That has to be a great combo. Looks like Sunday game day food!

    Smoked Turkey Legs

    They sell for $26 ea. at the County Fair's here in California. I haven't been to the State Fair so who knows how much they are there!

    Chicken Three Ways

    Nice looking results. Those wings wouldn't last long around here. And yes.........that's a lot of chicken.

    Smoked Turkey Legs

    I saw BrianGSDTexoma's post 'Just Some Smoked Cured Chicken Breast' and I thought, gee......I haven't done smoked turkey legs in awhile. Don't ask how I got from chicken and turkey breasts to turkey legs, but it happens to me a lot when I read these post's. So Friday I threw four legs in Pop's...

    Quick smoked turkey cutlets on BGE. 🔥

    Great looking plate of food. We haven't gotten to smoking a turkey breast yet. It's on the list though. What was your IT?

    BBQ Lasagna

    Nice looking lasagna! I second the idea of adding char or smoke to otherwise ordinary dishes. It takes it in a different direction and makes it seem almost exotic by daily standards.

    Burger Night. Chud-Style.

    A great looking burger! I need to talk to the wife about having a weekly burger night. Of course I'll be the one who cleans the stove after making the fries. :emoji_laughing:

    Texas Brisket Kit?? Whats your Take?

    I can see where a busy parent might buy packaged pre-marinated meat on a busy weeknight to throw on the grill as a "special" dinner. Not so much brisket as perhaps skirt steak, or spatchcock chicken. In any event there's way too much sodium for our taste, and the pre-marinated stuff is a lot...

    Not Feeling the Cherry Love...

    I am 100% apple these days. Apple seems to play well with all the proteins. Some woods, like hickory and mesquite can seem a bit overpowering with proteins like fish and poultry. But that's just my taste. Others may not agree.

    New info on the "Philly Karen" thing

    That's a cool ending for the boy. It's what I like about the game of baseball in particular, in that when bad things happen, good people, and teams, step up. I also applaud the dad who took the high rode when he gave her the ball, deserving or not.

    Drums on the grill

    That's a great looking plate. Like the combo of mac, beans, and chicken. Good looking glaze.
