OOOH NOOO!! (Think Mr. Bill) Just what I need - another addiction!

Great tip about the gelatin in the broth!

Yeah, they do get a bit funny after he's had a few adult beverages!

I use my Neti pot after any activity kicking up charcoal dust (opening new bag of charcoal, dumping out the fines in the bottom of the charcoal bin, cleaning out the KK). Works great. I now understand how coal miners end up with Black Lung!

Turns out that the "free shipping" is only in Canada. It's like $13 S&H to the States. With the conversion to USD, it's like $6.25 USD a jar. Tinyfish/Tony is hooking me up with a jar to see how I like it before I commit to a whole case!

Smart money bets that he wets his pants!!!

Wilbur, it's called a FoodSaver!

tinyfish, aka Tony, trip me out to this one, but Amazon only sells it by the case. http://www.amazon.ca/Allessia-Bomba-Antipasto-Spread-314ml/dp/B00W41TVC6 So, is it worth it??

Perfect! Can't wait to see that first all important "virgin cook."

Don't sell yourself short there, Tony! Great cooking is great cooking; it doesn't have to be new!

Yeah!!! In the home stretch now!

Nice job, Poochie!! Serious eats!

What is this La Bomba of which you all speak so reverently?? I am intrigued!! Bosco, Ken had it correct - the song reference was to The Pusher.

HURRAY! Love the color of your tiles! And the name couldn't be more fitting!! Can't wait to see the pics of that all important virgin cook!!

Careful, Bosco, or I'll be quoting Iron Butterfly on you!

Pretty self-explanatory, I thought!

It's a Great White North thing, eh!

Dennis makes KK covers out of sunbrella, if you're interested, PRippley. I have one of the older "Johnnyboy" covers, which is also sunbrella. I call it a "burqa"

I've used these bags for years now and they really do work! I think I have about 3 hunks of cheese in the fridge in them as I type this! Which reminds me, I think I'm out of them? http://www.amazon.com/Formaticum-Cheese-Storage-Bags-Count/dp/B00BEDW76W/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1447181453&sr=8-1&keywords=cheese+bags

Yeah, I know, but this was a great dry white (semillion and sauv blanc) that goes super well with roasted chicken. We did have some beers beforehand and a nice scotch afterwards, too.

Money shot is nothing to be ashamed of, dude!

I did a quick look and you can get the marinade and dipping sauce mixes on Amazon for anyone else that wants to try it. http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_1_13?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords=swiss+chalet+sauce&sprefix=swiss+chalet+%2Caps%2C157 Thanks for the tip, Bosco. I'll do that next time. When I mixed up the dipping sauce, it has a Worcestershire sauce aroma, so there might be some of that in the mix.

Marie Callender, eat your heart out!!

Home run, dude! Doesn't get any better than that!

And this is how you'd look if you did!
