    Stok Tower

    Stok, they are a new grill.  I worked at the Depot until a couple of days ago, and Stok is awesome.  The propane grill has serious issues so until they fix the burner stay away.  But, the tower is awesome.  The burner is inconsistant and doesn't stay lit if it's windy.  Not to mention it's three...

    Painful lesson learned

    I grabbed my charcoal starter bucket by the side, one time. I thought that was pretty painful. I can't wait until I step on a red in my bare feet! Just kidding, mostly. Hope you heal up.

    Sourdough Biscuits

    I can't get mine to rise. I quit trying to make them. They were so terrible, more like flat bread or drop biscuits. Everyone has the one dish they can't master, and mine is biscuits. thanks for the pics!

    Valparaiso/Dunes BBQ

    Thanks for the responses. I am certainly going to visit those places. I don't know anyone that has been to that area, and I was only at the dunes about 15 years ago. So being young, I have really little idea what it was like. Thanks again, and if anyone else can add, please do so. I...

    Late night Brisket on.....Bed time!

    I did a brisket on a day I had class intermittently. I heated it up about 5, put more wood in about 9, it raised the temp a little higher at first, a few hours later, it had dropped to about 170 when I had gotten home. I simply heated it back up and it came out like I had never missed a temp...
