    Seasoning packet, any use?

    I throw it out when I buy a bag of mixed beans, like some type of smoked pork and country ham has been on sale in bags of pieces, I buy separate vac and freeze, works very well and saves $$

    Bang for your buck steaks.....

    2 strip and 1 ribeye was about $32 yesterday, ran out of the rib roast steaks I vacuumed back around Christmas, will buy more hopefully this Christmas sales season. Kroger limits to 2 per week I need to shop around even if higher, maybe shoot more deer this season as shoulder is better 🤣

    BGE or Traeger for new house

    I would take the BGE over a pellet smoker for taste, the pellet is easy but lacks some smoke flavor.

    Which 36 inch griddle to get?

    Never no problem with heat, if grease is standing on the top and not draining you will have a hard time getting a crust without over cooking imo, 36” for a family of 4 or more, you don’t have to use all of it but you can’t stretch it when you need more
