Ha! If I replaced a grill/smoker/etc every time the temp gauge started going wonky, I would have owned a LOT of grills/smokers/etc 😂 But as they say, never let a "crisis" go to waste lol.

These stories are completely misunderstood by most people. When you start up a new business unit, you incur millions (maybe billions) of dollars worth of cost depending on what you're doing. If you're Ford and you're trying to expand into EVs, you need to assign engineers (scientists) to do...

On another forum, someone posted this: I decided I had to respond...

If you want people to stare at you, a face tattoo is cheaper.

The good thing about Southern California is that it tends to be dry most of the year. And I'm thinking of the 36" version with hood. Sad to hear the FB group is a bit of a cesspool. I don't have a FB account at all any more because I consider it all to be a bit of a cesspool. (Nowhere close to...

Thanks everyone. Lots to think about. You've got me leaning towards the Blackstone but then y'all had to throw out "gasser with a griddle option" which is something to consider lol. That said, there's just something about me that if I had to constantly reconfigure the gasser between grates and...

Yeah, you know when I drink alone, I prefer to be by myself. -George Thorogood

So... The pellet smoker thread got me thinking, because I'm in the market to replace my pellet grill with something else. Initially I thought "gasser", but there are certain things I think a Blackstone griddle might be able to do that I'd like, that a gasser would not. And my other grills (both...

Lol... They are most assuredly not "trash". You can make a lot of good food on them. I've liked having mine for the last ~5-6 years [especially getting it free] to use along side my Big Joe and Joe Jr when I'm cooking something that's appropriate. IMHO no matter what equipment you use, it comes...

Honestly one of the biggest limitations of pellet grills (particularly the entry level ones) is that it is hard to really get a good sear. They're designed with a heat spreader plate so you don't get direct flame--the heat is basically all indirect. You can get grill marks, but not as easily as...

Wondering if I should tour this listing... https://www.gulfshorebusiness.com/port-royal-compound-on-market-for-record-295m/

Dear Floppiest of Knockers, If you have two pumps and a counterflow chiller, you can freeze gallon ziplocks of water (or just buy big bags of ice from the store) and recirculate ice water through the chiller one direction while recirculating wort through the chiller in the other. By doing so...

Just checked off an accomplishment. Peloton workout #1000! Since June 2022, I've now amassed 380 rides, 337 strength, 241 stretches, and a smattering of other modalities to round it out. And since I basically don't do warmup/cooldown rides, and do a lot of PZ work, I checked my average for the...

Continuing to work on the sway to the trail side. Think I'm making real progress. And it [predictably] is also helping with early extension and proper pivot. The DTL view shows better push of the left hip back on the downswing and avoiding EE compared to my usual. Hopefully one of these days...
