    Major Winter Storm

    Only used the snowblower two times so far...sad. Looks like most of the snowblower gas will end up in my truck.

    Major Winter Storm

    We are still in the skiff zone. It start snowing a few ago, but they are the smallest snowflakes and it super cold.

    Pets need extra care when its cold.

    We always go outside with ours. Its too risky otherwise, one chases dear, and we have mtn lions. In the cold, one of our labs will barely leave the breezeway and do his business right next to the house, or in snow he will let it fly anywhere on the driveway. The other one is super picky and...

    Quick question about SD time in refer in banneton

    I think Im just gonna bake it beforehand. Feeling pretty confident I wont be in the mood after a couple few beers to mess with it...and wait for it to cool. Im tired already-one of our dog puked in the middle of the night which makes for a s**t night sleep.

    I could use a little cheering up

    NICE! Modern techniques are so much better than decades ago. They get you moving ASAP which feel so much better and IMO gets the healing started ASAP

    Major Winter Storm

    SO JEALOUS! Colorado is at record low snowpack. While everyone else is getting feet of snow, we got a very light dusting. So none.

    Time for a new smoker

    I dont change the pellets. I use lumberjack competition blend on everything. Never dump or empty the hopper. Sits outside in all the elements 24/7/365 with a cover. Never a problem.

    Quick question about SD time in refer in banneton

    I put a boule in the banneton this morning around 8-9, then made happy hour plans and wont be home till 7ish. I did a little ChatGPT search on how long I can leave it in the refer and it said 24+ hours could risk over proofing. I could cook it when I get home, but predicting low motivation...

    I could use a little cheering up

    Sorry I have not been chiming in. Somehow my alerts are not firing all the time. I am sorry to here of the "complications", really hope that all clears up. Sounds annoying and stressful. But the good thing is it sounds like the surgical site is still good. When do you start PT and such...

    Time for a new smoker

    Yup, I was got sticker shock looking at new ones yesterday. I think I got my RT700 for around 1K with a package that included a cover, half dozen bags of pellets, grill grates, and some other stuff. But that was a long time ago. I always have to remember: s**t doest get cheaper.

    Time for a new smoker

    The Rec Teq will serve you well. I have had my RT-700 for over a decade and still runs like new. When I was shopping for my pellet my top three pics were: MAC, Yoder, Rec Teq based on what I wanted. The new Rec Teqs are pretty sweet and loaded up with way more stuff than mine came with...

    RecTeq Flagship

    on the 1600 - how did they get dual grease buckets on there... Them new fangled one are getting spendy! Sheesh.

    RecTeq Flagship

    I doubt there will be an issue getting parts. They seem to use the same controller and probes in all/most of them. I am confident the heat deflector is also universal. I have an RT 700 that is well over a decade old. The fancy new ones look nice, but my "old" Rec Teq is still going strong...

    Beef Ribs

    A buddy of mine has had both Sams and Costco and he thinks Costco is a little better. My Costco is about 40 minutes away, Sams is next door to them. I just bring a huge cooler and fill the truck when I go..

    Beef Ribs

    Costco here usually has them. But to your point - the butchers at Costco can be very helpful. always worth asking. I have asked for more briskets to look at and he pulled a few case for me to shop on. My "local" butcher (its a 45 minute drive) always has them but they are quite expensive...
