Yea you Pacific NWers aren't used to those temps!     I loved living out there because the weather was never extreme  (except for all the rain)...winters were mild and Summers were mild.      

Case i just cold smoked cheese in the same temps last week!  What was i thinking?  LOL

 

[dirtsailor2003]

Here in the high desert we get some pretty hot days, but it always cools down at night. We're having days in the upper nineties right now with night time lows in the 60's. Pretty typical for this the of year.

Can't wait for tri tip and crispy skin taters!! Hope it cools down a bit before dinner time!

I didn't know Oregon had those different climates.   Washington where i was sure did...West and East of the mountains are waaay different climates, i was on the West. 

 

[dirtsailor2003]

Yep same thing here in Oregon, dryer East of the cascades and wetter on the west side.

Love Mr T's crispy skin taters! Been doing them in the gasser, to hit to fire up the indoor oven!!

 

[dirtsailor2003]

Wish I had some home grown tomaters to slice and serve, store bought is going to have to do!!!!!

 

[fwismoker]

Case i've been doing his taters too.. i've been throwing them in  naked (no foil) on the bottom rack of the mini alot of the time....micro if i'm in a hurry.

 

[dirtsailor2003]

No foil no micro for me!

Our Costco better open up soon because i refuse to spend $18 for tri's.    Sure i can get chicken for .89 a lb. but man can not live on chicken alone!     

Good looking dinner Case but next one i want to see on the drum! ;)

Looks great. Nearest costco is 150 miles away.
