Nailed it! (even without the pink butcher paper)

Dinner last night was a Cajun spiced porkchop with sides of mushroom risotto and crispy kale chips with rosemary & garlic focaccia. Grilled direct on the main @ 325F with an apple wood chunk.

I thought that was only Ozzie!

Sorry, no help here with the repair, but you could go to the pet store and look in the aquarium section and see if you can find one of the adjustable valves and put that in-line on the outlet hose to adjust your flow.

Second that! Sláinte!! -
Are you planning on using Aaron Franklin's method of wrapping in pink butcher paper after the stall? Highly recommend it. Tip - can't sub aluminum foil for the butcher paper - it's not porous and you'll lose your bark and the outside will be mushy.

Two thumbs up to Lord Byron! Way to step up, mates!

You're welcome!

Gorgeous birds! You're coming up to speed quickly with your new KK!

Nice looking soup, MacKenzie. Checked out the recipe - wholeheartedly endorse the dried porcini mushrooms (I have the powdered version in my pantry for an extra boost of umami), but they left out one of my secret ingredients - finely chopped celery. It adds a bit of texture to all the soft and creaminess of the rest of the ingredients - that je ne sais quoi!

Our restaurants are only allowed to do take-out now, no seating of any kind. Bars are closed, along with any place where 10 or more congregate - movie theatres, bowling alleys, concerts.

Don't be a meathead! Thankfully there's still some good folks out there, doing the right thing! Not only trying to fill a needed gap, but they are GIVING IT AWAY!!! I know the owners and they are great people! Love giving them my business. https://www.thegazette.com/subject/news/health/swisher-distillery-cedar-ridge-turns-alcohol-into-hand-sanitizer-in-wake-of-covid-19-strains-supplies-20200317

Thank goodness there's still some folks out there that really care about their communities. https://www.thegazette.com/subject/news/health/swisher-distillery-cedar-ridge-turns-alcohol-into-hand-sanitizer-in-wake-of-covid-19-strains-supplies-20200317 I've known the owners for many years and go out of my way to support their business. Trying to support the local restaurants and breweries, too, but it's like triage, picking/choosing winners/losers - it's frustrating! Oh, btw - Happy First Day of Spring, everyone! In all the craziness, almost forgot what day it was!

I hate to sound cruel, but those folks deserve to have a 24 hour power outage!

Sometimes during a cold smoke, I'll lightly tap on the side of the smoker with tongs to make sure that things are settling and staying lit.

Rainy today, so probably no grilling out tonight, but I did get to last evening. Chicken Shawarma on the menu. Chicken was pre-marinated from Trader Joes. On a 325F grill, direct, with cherry wood chunk. Plated up with a cuke & red pepper relish and tahini sauce, Bibb lettuce for the wrap, and a side of curry rice.

My deck is made out of Trex. I specifically made the contractor use the under decking system so that there were no holes on the deck planking. Added to the job, as they had to work on ladder underneath, but I think it was worth it to not have unsightly holes and screws showing. You can use shavings from cutting the planks as filler in the screw holes, but I dispensed with that need with the under deck system. As far as I remember (it's been over 10 years ago), but I don't recall the contractor using any special blades or drill bits.

Happy St. Pat's Day, ya'll! Having to celebrate at home though, as the local government asked the bars to stay closed today. A nice corned beef sandwich (not homemade) with a good Irish Ale! Sláinte!

Second on the Lumber Jack pellets.

Did OK at the local supermarket today, but they'd been hit hard yesterday, according to the folks working there. Many employees were out in the store re-stocking some items. Meat counter was a little thin, but most things were to be had. Unfortunately, in parallel, they'd run a sale on the thicker cut pork chops that I like, so naturally they were out! I had to settle for the regular cut ones - I'll survive! Soup and pasta shelves were hit hard, but the good imported Italian pasta was plentiful, which is all that I buy anymore. No paper products, but I didn't need any. Liquid hand soap was sparse, but there was plenty of bar soap - what's with folks? Liquor/beer/wine department hardly looked fazed - woo, hoo! The real adventure will be tomorrow when I hit up CostCo and Trader Joes. Will be interesting to see how hard they've been hit.
