    How Did You Choose The Temperature That You Barbecue At?

    New from missouri.

     That last sentence eased my mind. I don't like seeing open belt drives to start with . But putting a dead man switch on it will make it somewhat safer.

    Au Jus

    To make good au jus you need the drippings from a beef something you have cooked. I  brown a hand full of diced onions ,add the pan drippings and then add a box of low sodium beef broth.  If you want to get fancy add a 1/2 cup red wine and then reduce the liquid by half.

    Crabs on the grill

    Mike we dont clean them first just throw them live  on the grill just like tossing in boiling water. they don't get any seasoning just some smoky flavor. You can make a dipping sauce if you want to.

    Watch your receipts!!

    They don't like it when they are on the losing end . Years ago when they still used pricing guns . some poor kid at my local albertsons  labeled all the crown royal 1.75 bottles at the price of a fifth. I was the first one to spot it and emptied the shelf. Was checking out and the cashier was...
