    I've received points from 4 members in the last couple of days, but my points total doesn't change. What's the deal?

    Beef tenderloin wrapped in bacon weave with Q-View!!

    Last weekend my prime rib turned out great. So I though I would try something similar with a beef tenderloin. Then I saw an extra pack of bacon in the drawer. Decent price at Costco. I cut off about 8 inches off the large side of the beef tenderloin. Rubbed with a little EVOO then...

    Score???

    Remember the $4.00 per bag of RO at Walmart thread I posted a few days ago. Well I just happened to be in there tonight and thought I would help them clear out their stock. I think this will last me a little while.

    Price on pork bellies?

    Was wanting to try making some bacon, but cant find anywhere to buy bellies. I did find one butcher about 25 miles away that can order them, but says that they are $4.00 a pound and the minimum quantity that he can get is 2 bellies that weight 8-10 pounds each. I don't think I wanna drop $80 on...

    Anyone have DirecTV HD w/ DVR?

    Thinking of dumping Time Warner Cable. The HD channels are all the time freezing or have a lot of artifacts. Anyone have any experience with DirecTV with HD? I had DirecTV years ago and liked it at the time.

    Chicken Wings with Qview

    My first attempt at smoked wings. Turned out pretty darn good. Although I did overcook them a little and I'm going to smoke at a lesser temp next time. I had it between 300* - 325*. Took em off and covered in Louisiana hot sauce and melted butter mixture and dipped in Blue Cheese. Yum!!!

    Pepperoni and mozzarella Fatty with Qview

    Made a simple pepperoni and mozzarella fatty yesterday. Wife is not a fan of any veggies. Used turkey pepperoni which is pretty awesome. Not as greasy as regular and tastes just as good. Of course had to wrap in bacon. Letting rest a few minutes. Great taste for such a simple fatty.

    Now this turned out tasty! Used a combination of pork and beef. Mixed up all my ingredients and put in a disposable aluminum pan. Poked a few holes in the bottom around the edges to drain excess juice. About an hour into the smoke. Added my topping. Now this is a point worthy meatloaf!
