Smokin' and searin"

[912smoker]

My job requires some travel , usually within 3 hrs of home. This gives me an opportunity to hit up the grocery stores for deals. Ran across a great price on steaks this week at Kroger .
Had them soak in 1/2 worsty 1/2 low sodium soy for an hr.

I do the same, but in my neck of the woods most town have only a couple of markets. It's usually the meat section or the bakery that has the unique items, like store baked breads or rolls and in-house sausage flavors, or regional lamb and beef. There is a town to the north that has a Basque community and both markets sell their version of a sausage called Lukainka. And another town further north that has a third generation meat market famous for sausage.

Thanks Charlie I appreciate that. He's been in 11 yrs and I hope he stays for 20 ! But that's easy for me to say from the outside. He's a good son and I always tell him that I quit locking my doors after he went in lol.
