Talk soon...
...In my part of the woods we call these 'Rat tails'...most people slit them lengthwise and leave the peppers' stem, hence the name...
...But, ABTS is a pretty catchy!!
...Whatever you call them they are goood!!...
...I can't imagine having freeze up problems that warm... I'm with you thinking the reg may be having grief....I've had that same thing happen before.

...If I marinate beef rumps in my favorite recipe that does not include paprika, would it be ok to rub them with the parika AFTER they come out of the wet and just before they hit the grill?...would that be sufficient to help get the nice finish on the end product?. Isn't that part of of the...
