    It's Bacon Day! With Qview

    Thanx guys, I'll keep the temps low and just bring it up for a while. Tracey, I'm surprised anyone has a problem getting bellies. My butcher ordered them right away had them in a couple of days later. The Vietnamese supermarket near my house carries them on a regular basis. I always assumed...

    North East Smokers, hope you're ready for the storm!

    2 1/2" of snow here. Thankfully I only had to shovel about 1/2 my walk and driveway due to helpful neighbors with snowblowers.
