Good looking meal. For me meatloaf is always better the next day as a sandwich.

Well said! couldn't agree more.

Nice looking meal! Everything looks great.

welcome. You're going to love your KK.

No doubt about it I will be purchasing a larger one in the near future. Don't get me wrong, I'm very happy and impressed with the 16"...but I want more real estate. When my children visit the grill get pretty crowded. Here's a pic of a 5 lbs tri tip and some artichokes. As you can see the grill is full.

Hello tekobo and welcome, I think you're on the right track. I'm having pretty good success with cranking up the heat for searing while my low-n-slow is wrapped and resting in a cooler. And that's in a 16" TT. I've found most low-n-slow is better after an hour or better rest. That's more than enough of time to achieve the heat needed for a sear. I think additional questions should be, "how many people am I going to be feeding?" Is a 19" large enough? Am I going to be doing more than low-n-slow and searing? Rotisserie and baking for example. To put it simply, you can't go wrong with the KK, just make sure you're getting one that fits all your needs. Have you read this?

Well deserved and all truthful. Nice write up.

Welcome. You're going to love your KK. Nothing better.

Nice tip. Thanks.

How many pairs of boots could you get out of that behemoth? How old is a Croc that size?

Sounds like my Ex.

Looks like that bad boy had some weight to it.

Nicely done!

Great looking snack! Perfect!!

Nicely done! Everything looks great.

That's one happy tree!

I doubt the following is true and I might get in trouble for posting it...but I can't help myself. This answer to a college chemistry exam was sent to me recently and restores my faith in the new generation of college students. The answer was purportedly in response to the bonus question on a University of Arizona chemistry midterm: “Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic (absorbs heat)?” Here is the student’s answer: First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we need to know the rate at which souls are moving into Hell and the rate at which they are leaving, which is unlikely. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving. As for how many souls are entering Hell, let’s look at the different religions that exist in the world today. Most of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell. With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially. Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle’s Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are added. This gives two possibilities: 1. If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose. 2. If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over. So which is it? If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year that, ‘It will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you,’ and take into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number two must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already frozen over. The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is therefore, extinct….. …leaving only Heaven, thereby proving the existence of a divine being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting ‘Oh my God.’

Interesting. Great looking meal.

I've only been to the one in Metarie. My daughter lives in Kenner and I make sure I get my Dragos fix every time I visit.

In my world "enhanced ketchup" taste like mustard.

Are you referring to Drago's in New Orleans? I love that place. I usually order a dozen for an appetizer and a 1/2 dozen for desert. Great food!!

Agreed. Nice to put a face with the name. Is the gentleman behind your coauthor Mike with the tan shirt against the wall your son?

Nice pies!

Good looking pies!

Agreed
