    Blackstone, anybody?

    I have been entertaining the idea of adding a Blackstone griddle to my patio cooking arsenal. I currently have a Traeger pellet smoker and Weber propane grill on the patio. I use both of them multiple times during a typical week in the summer, and occasionally during colder times of the year. I...

    Vanity plates, anyone?

    I'm thinking about getting vanity plates for both of my motorcycles. I had one several years ago on my car, "CUBBIES." I'm a big Cubs fan. Always wanted to see if I could get one by the censors. "NE14A69." But, motorcycles are limited to 6 characters. Ideas? Anybody? This should be...

    Any motorcycle riders here?

    I didn't see a forum for motorcyclists, so I'm posting here. I sold my last Goldwing a few years ago and haven't ridden since. Today I picked up an older Honda VTX 1300r to get back into riding. I'll use this bike to reacquaint myself to riding over the next year or so, then trade it in on a...

    Cleaning up old cast iron cookware

    I have some old cast iron skillets that I have been wanting to strip down and re season for a few years. I decided to start today. I looked in to doing this and found a lot of folks using diy electrolysis tanks, so I thought I'd give it a try. Using an empty tote, two pieces of rebar, some...

    Thinking about a new travel trailer

    We sold our 27' Forest River camper last year because we didn't use it much anymore. Now the wife and I are thinking about getting another one and semi retire to live a life of campground hosts. Seems like everything we look at, in the size we want, has a queen master bed and bunk beds. It will...

    Upgrading court stereo in my truck

    I'm looking at the many options out there for my 2005 F250 Super Duty. There's nothing wrong with the factory unit, but I want something with Bluetooth, Navigation and USB ports. I like some of the mid $ range stereos on Crutchfield.com. Pioneer and JVC have some interesting double din units...

    Smoking meats - opinions on wood pellet brands

    I made a modification to my propane smoker so I could get away from using wood chips. I got tired of having to add chips every hour or so. Now I can run 10-16 hours without having to reload the pellet maze. I'm currently using traeger pellets , and will be picking up a couple of bags of bear...

    What have you picked up in 2020?

    Figured I'd start the new year thread off. Last week I bought a used Hawk model 981( Rem 870 knockoff) 12 guage shotgun from a kid who was raising money to buy a black powder rifle. I offered the kid $150, for $10 more he threw in a saddle mount rail and red dot scope. Today I went to...

    It's been a tough week

    I mentioned the problems my brother is having at a hospital in Texas. Today, at 2:00, he will be taken off the ventilator and allowed to pass. It sucks. There are 9 of us in the biological family and he will be the first to go. Most of my siblings are flying down there to see him off. I can't...

    Cooking for 125

    My son is getting married this Saturday. He and his fiance asked the wife and I to cater the reception, selecting pulled pork and my wife's homemade tater salad. They'd also like a couple of briskets as well. I started smoking the pork this past weekend, smoking half a dozen boston butts, then...

    That's muh boat

    Been spending some time this summer on an old 15 foot aluminum semi-v fishing boat I picked up on a trade. I'm not exactly sure who makes it, as it was manufactured before hull plates were a thing. The previous registration says its a 1971 Lund, but it doesn't look like any Lund I've found...

    On the smoke

    Got a couple of racks of spare ribs on the smoker for dinner tonight. When these are done I'll be smoking up the pork bellies I cured for my homemade bacon. Also, the wife took me out this morning shopping for my Father's Day gift. She wanted to get me an electric smoker to compliment my Smoke...

    Reloading

    2 weeks ago my brother in law passed away after several years of battling cancer. We didn't really communicate much, but we had a lot of similar interests, so when we did it was long conversations To say Larry was a gun enthusiast would be a gross understatement. He owned many guns, which he...

    Bad day at the range

    Today is the first time I've gone pistol shooting since I got bifocals. I was 5 rounds into my first magazine before I hit the damn target paper. I can no longer see the front sight of any handgun I own. It was a very frustrating day.

    Smoker Maintenance

    Do this of you who smoke a lot of meats and such, how do you treat your wire racks? Do you remove them and wash them, or treat them like you do on the grill with just bringing the smoker up to temperature them scraping with a wire brush?
