    Salt/Sodium in Homemade Rubs

    Hey everyone, looking for some direction. Doc recently told me (although I already knew it, but put it off for too many years unfortunately) that I have extremely high blood pressure. Got on the meds and I'm hoping that helps me; just started last week. I love to smoke and try new stuff as...

    Throwdown Entry - Belgian Beer-Cheese Soup With Fresh Smoked Sausage In A Homemade Pretzel Bread Bowl

    I appreciate that, thank you very much! I actually voted for the sausage and pepper soup, but I would eat any and all of them. I wish there was a way to taste the entries before voting (that's obviously impossible, but how cool would that be?).

    Throwdown Entry - Belgian Beer-Cheese Soup With Fresh Smoked Sausage In A Homemade Pretzel Bread Bowl

    College football is my favorite sport by a mile. I will definitely do it again and maybe double the recipe for a nice game day with friends and family.

    Throwdown Entry - Belgian Beer-Cheese Soup With Fresh Smoked Sausage In A Homemade Pretzel Bread Bowl

    Thanks! It was a learning experience for sure. Sometimes I get too wrapped up in what I'm doing because I want it to be perfect that I forget the small things LOL.

    What are you listening to ?

    We rarely get any good concerts there so this is exciting. We could literally walk to the venue from our house.

    So glad I saw this post! They will be here on August 11th, I didn't know that. Thanks for sharing. Really starting to like them, and psych'd that they're playing right across the street from where I live!

    Throwdown Entry - Belgian Beer-Cheese Soup With Fresh Smoked Sausage In A Homemade Pretzel Bread Bowl

    We are lucky to have them close. Have been going there since our 25 year old son was about 6 years old maybe. Luckily we can get Final Absolution at a lot of places locally now.

    Again I'll say how cool it was to participate in my first ever throwdown. Didn't bring home that beautiful knife (man that thing is sweet!), or the other great prizes, but the winners were more deserving than me for sure, great entries!! My inspiration for my soup was an appetizer called...

    Thank you! Yes, I'm going to try to post it today. That would have been a great trade; I love pizza as much as I love Q, and I'm totally inspired to try to replicate yours soon!!

    I completely forgot the sign originally on my entry, took lots of great pics without it. Then we ate, and as I was cleaning up it hit me. "OH SH*T!" I yelled. Completely forgot about it. Luckily I had a couple of empty bread bowls left (although they weren't as nice looking as the one I...

    Congratulations to all the winners, these were some great entries! I had no idea what I was doing since this was my first entry. And to be honest, I didn't even vote for my own entry! :emoji_laughing: This was fun and made me think outside the box, as it looks like many others did. Can't wait...
