    near miss

    It's been an interesting couple days here in South Central Pa. We rarely have ice storms here, but this week we had two in four days. Sunday's storm was followed with winds gusting up to 60mph overnight. I walked outside around 7 am Sunday to find a tree down over the driveway landlocking us...

    Masterbuilt smokers

    another happy mes owner here. I've had a lot of success with mine over the last year I've owned it. After a minor mix up on my first smoke, I haven't had any issues with a smoke. I think the ability to controll the temperature helps the learning curve a lot! They are also well insulated...

    I blamed you folks

    I like that approach AJ, my wife half cringes every time I say "I think it's about time for another trip to the butcher shop". She always forgets all about it when the food starts coming off the smoker though!

    Porks and Beefs together

    I like hickory, apple and cherry for both meats. I tend to mix apple or cherry hickory for either. I go about 2/3 fruit wood to the hickory. Just my 2 worth.

    bah humbug- it's always something

    we're going through the other end of the secptic system. Our township was kind enough to vote for us to pay for sewer to be run down our road. The main line is in, but we haven't had to cut the 80 line through the woods to our house yet. Next spring that will probably happen. At the end of...
