    King Mattress

    All I can say is we had a waterbed for in Ft. Lauderdale for 35 years and loved it. Went to a motionless one the last 10 years. Then moved to Sebring & Judy wanted a new bed , so I haven’t slept since. That was almost 20 years ago. I’d give anything to get my waterbed back! Al

    I still leave them on, they come right off after they are cooked if you don’t want to burn them off. Al

    1st overnight smoke = Fail

    You’re fine, the IT was above 140 before it dropped, so even if you injected it, it still should be fine. Just finish it up & have a great lunch! Al

    Briquette/Lump or Just Wood to Start the Fire?

    I agree with the above, what ever is the cheapest alternative to start the fire is best. Plenty of guys on here have access to unlimited wood supplies, so they wouldn’t be starting with charcoal. But as Chas said wood splits around here are expensive. Al

    Hydroponics Growing System Indoor Garden

    What ec meter do you have & what are you keeping the nutrient levels at? My plants are burning & can’t seem to figure out if it is too much light or to much nutrients. Al

    Pork loin: Whole or Sliced?

    Looks like @thirdeye has you covered. We love pork loin & it is nice that it is still cheap. We like them cooked over wood on a rotisserie. Al

    Is my bacon curing properly?

    I have been using the DD calculator for quite a while & for me, vac sealing, but loosely works the best for me. Just enough air left inside to create liquid, and no worries about the seal leaking. I also go a minimum of 14 days in the cure. I just made a batch of bacon & the schedule worked out...

    Judy’s focaccia art

    Judy & I love focaccia bread & she has been wanting to do a focaccia art bread. So on to Pinterest & here we go. She looked at a bunch of photo’s & we ended up with her own design. She set it up on a tray to get an idea of what she wanted. Then she just transferred it to the dough & added...
