    Kabob BBQ

    We had planned to do a couple of fatties this weekend but the weather was so nice we ended up spending time away from home instead. But we found time for a quick Chicken Kabob BBQ this evening. Nothing crazy but still darn good. Everything was marinated in a Italian dressing...

    Dogs...What breed do you have and whats their name

    German Shepherd's for us. Right now we only have two. Kommandant Zeus and Fraulein Isis. Our kids were born with GSD's and have had them all their lives. I was born with them too and my mom raised them for most of her life as well. My wife has been a convert for over 20 years and loves them too...

    Thanks guys. Meat Hunter, We've been canning for years with hot water baths but I've never tried pressure canning. I have a couple of Ball Blue books here someplace and will read up before we do it. I don't want to waste the beans by using the wrong method... It also sounds like your method is...

    Highly reccomended PC Security Program

    Hey Smokeguy, is that your hovercraft? I Have plans for a few smaller UH models and a Sevtec Explorer. As soon as I get the money and space I'm hoping to get underway on the Explorer. It would be sweet to use carbon fiber too but I doubt I'll be able to swing it... Jon.

    New in Michiagn

    Hey Steve. I'm a newbie here too but it's a pretty cool place. What area are you in? There's talk of a camp out/smoke out in Oakland county this July. I believe it's looking like Addison Oaks in the Lake Orion area... Jon.
