Sweet, MacKenzie. Love a great twice-baked spud!

Inquiring minds like ours just have to ask - how do you get those small shells off the grill when they're done without tearing them up? The ravioli are bigger and shouldn't be a problem, provided they are oiled up, but something small enough to lodge between the grate rails is another matter.

Interesting sauce, for sure, especially the whipped cream part. I've seen a similar version of just the horseradish in whipped cream for prime rib before.

Filet with Bearnaise sauce - not exactly traditional Easter fare, but I'm good with it! Looks excellent.

Noticed that you shipped them differently - mine was "economy" and Charles' was "standard." That might have something to do with it, perhaps?? Noticed that you included "signature on delivery," so we'll need to be home when it arrives. No problems for me, as I'm retired, but since both Reefs work, could be an issue??

Cute puppy dogs! Grill's pretty nice, too!

Butt Rub is a classic. You're going to be happy with it.

Classic, Aussie. Clicked on the link and got the message "Product not trackable." But, ckreef's works just fine.

Spotted the corn hanging on the side - clever idea! Unfortunately, we're 3+ months away from local sweet corn here. Best part of Summer in Iowa!!

Now I'm jonesing for a steak!! Thanks, you two!

Thanks, Aussie. I've never used mine either, so thanks for the tip. btw - Did you get the quick marinade container, too? I've used that one a lot.

This was their "Winter Home" to get away from the bad weather up north in NY. They even built the railroad up from Atlanta just to build this castle.

And the furnishing inside are just as opulent. First time I went there as a 6 year old, I was fascinated by all the bearskin rugs, with the heads on, on the floors. And, in the library, on the second floor (yes, the library is 2 floors high - or was it 3??), you can actually walk through a tunnel in the fireplace chimney. I thought that was kewl, too.

I plan to use an old one that doesn't see much use anymore, so if it does start to corrode, I'll drive off that bridge later (to quote Ted Kennedy). But, thanks for the heads up, Charles. @Aussie Ora - check's in the mail, as we say here. https://tools.usps.com/go/TrackConfirmAction?tLabels=+LA077229165US

I'll check, but I think that I might still have some paraffin starter cubes. Could quarter one of those and give it a try. And, I'll wait longer after dropping it in before topping off the tube with more chips.

My kind of "Hamburger Helper!"

Isn't that place amazing! The gardens alone are incredible. Did you go to the winery? Plus, lots of good breweries in the area, too - Sierra Nevada, New Belgium, and Oskar Blue; plus, the local spot - Wicked Weed. My favorite restaurant is Curate - Spanish tapas. Hope you had a nice visit. I love Asheville. I grew up just south of there in Greenville, SC.

He was very good on The Chappelle Show. My favorite skit was him telling the story about kicking Rick James' butt. He will be missed!

That's a new one on me, but it seems to be one of those "down under" words. Well, we got spun! Dizzy Pig arrived today, so I'll be boxing up the stuff and heading out to the Post Office tomorrow.

Excellent!

Huge patio, my ass - you'd need a Walmart parking lot for that many grills, Ken!!

Good that you spruced up the area, as the KK expects a nice home when it arrives!

True, dat!

Need to find a KK owner in Maine, much closer than Jon!

Cute.
