    What do you pay for wood?

    Last time I paid for wood was 30 years ago. Three of us heated our houses exclusively with wood and would annually go in together and buy a fully loaded 18-wheeler log truck load. That was about ten full cords and we paid $300 total. So I got ~ 3 1/3 cords for $100 or less than $30/cord...

    Brisket Rub

    I'd stick with Franklin's standard of salt and black pepper. Tried and true.

    Kitchen Aid Mixer

    I use the KA Artisan for bread making and love it. Don't know anything about the Pro 600. The Artisan consistently rates as the best kitchen stand mixer in reviews. I guess the choice depends on what and how much you'll be making.

    juniper

    Folks, be careful of what you are calling cedar. There are many kinds of trees throughout the US and the world with the common name of cedar. The only true cedars are in the genus Cedrus and are not native to North America. The common Red Cedar we're familiar with is actually a Juniper. Fish...

    Lowest moisture seasoned oak

    I have a very dry basement and the oak splits (1+ years of drying) register 0% moisture on my meter. Similar wood stored outside and covered registers ~6%. By contrast, a live cherry tree nearby registers 32%.

    Hello from Helsinki

    Podzap, are you Finnish or an expat? My wife and I spent a week in Helsinki several years ago. Loved it. I found the people to be warm, friendly, and approachable. We walked and toured the city and took the ferry over to Tallinn for a day. My favorite food was reindeer and mashed potatoes...

    Amazon deal on Chef Choice 615a meat slicer

    Weber Smokey Mountain 22 with GURU control

    A friend has this setup and regularly makes pulled pork bbq from a Boston butt. He sets it up in the evening, adds a 20 lb bag of charcoal and a few chunks of hardwood, lights it and goes to bed. Late the next morning, he has a perfectly cooked butt meal ready for resting. The meat is still...

    Coffee Wood

    Although the post is old, I'll add a comment about Kentucky Coffee tree. It's fairly closely related to Honey Locust and Black Locust, all in the legume family along with Mesquite. In historic times, the seeds were roasted, ground, and used by settlers in the Mississippi and Ohio River areas...
