Nice job on the za!

Thanks, Jon. You're being quite gracious in defeat. It was an ugly day for me - all 3 of my "haters" won. At least my Jackets rebounded against a "pitty pat" opponent at home. Gotta win on the road next week.

Very nice. I see you have a MEATER. How do you like it? (btw - I've got one, too.)

Because he didn't put beets on this one!

I'm off to heat up some leftover tri-tip for lunch!

Very nice table, MacKenzie!

Dude, are you insane? Clemson in Death Valley is a slam dunk win for the red necks!! Seeing how their D completely demolished my Yellow Jackets last week, ya'll are in for a very long day!! As much as I hate Clemson (3rd only to Georgia & Notre Dame in my haters club!) - sorry, Jon, but I won't take the bet, as it would be like stealing candy from a baby! POST-GAME UPDATE: Well shut my mouth, the 'Cuse did a whole lot better than I was expecting. But, like I've known over the many years, it's really hard to be them in Death Valley - why do you think they call it that in the first place? (Yeah, it's damn hot on the field, too!)

Follow the instructions and you'll be just fine. Don't go screaming up to 650F right away. Start at 500F and let the grill heat soak for at least an hour, then ramp up 50F every 30 minutes until you start to smell the solvent. Then stop raising the temperature at that point and start watching for the lifting tiles. Besides having a wet sponge handy to wipe off the white residue, have a safety pin (or similar pointy object) handy to poke small holes in the grout by the lifting tiles, to help release the steam build up. Last words - be careful, as the outside of the KK will be quite hot during this process (that's how it works - you have to get it heated all the way through to the grout to vent the solvent.) And, yes, pebble tiles seem to vent more than square ones, based upon others' experience posted here.

Great news for you and the family, but hearts go out to those not so lucky!

Welcome! Hang out and before you know it, you'll be calling Dennis to place that order!!

Tossed a Trader Joe's marinated (carne asada) roast on the KK the other night. About as simple as a cook can get! Add a nice salad, twice-baked (air fryer) spud, and some tasty red wine and call it dinner!

I hope that plays out for you, tekobo! I've enjoyed my retirement so far - 5 1/2 years in!

Exactly! Just got back from 2 weeks in Greece - one of my "bucket list" places to visit! I don't know if you saw me, but I waved at you as my plane flew over Nova Scotia on the way home Sunday night!

So much has changed since then - both good & bad, but that's the way life is!

@MacKenzie - these young whipper-snappers! 50 was so long ago!

Nicely done!

Nice way to celebrate it, too!

Preach on, sister, preach on!!!

Looking forward to seeing the results!

Nice hunks of meat!

WOW! All I can say. Can't wait ait to see that thing covered in meat!!

Not the 1st time I've been called that and I've been called much worse, trust me! No blood, no foul in my book.

Happy birthday! 1/2 box should be enough for your cook, but no harm in playing it safe.

Nice budgies!
