David Chang Posted April 15, 2022 Report Share Posted April 15, 2022 @tyrus it's the only choice i have if i want to walk in to a store to buy it. restaurants use it there to roast goose and duck. the wood is nice and dry, but it's impossible to split by hand due to the extreme knotting in the grain. i would love to have oak to burn. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poochie Posted April 15, 2022 Report Share Posted April 15, 2022 Oak is what 99% of the firewood salespeople have around here. I lucked out on some cherry and hickory in addition to the oak I have. All of it was around $85 a rick...2 ricks make a cord and a rick is 4 feet high, 2 feet wide and 8 feet long. Some of them make a rick 18" wide instead of 2 feet since it fits in a smaller fireplace. Some guys sell it by the pickup load. So don't show up in a Ford Ranger...go for the Tundra. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacKenzie Posted April 16, 2022 Report Share Posted April 16, 2022 I guess Troble didn't get the memo, "No posting pixs of fresh corn on the cob until Tony and I can get it locally!" 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyrus Posted April 16, 2022 Report Share Posted April 16, 2022 Meat, potatoes and corn, it doesn't get any better. Well, actually it does but I'll take that 3 days a week for sure. Bon travail. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C6Bill Posted April 16, 2022 Report Share Posted April 16, 2022 I’d eat that 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
remi Posted April 16, 2022 Report Share Posted April 16, 2022 Easter with the family here- so for the adults I prepared Bistecca Fiorentina; each of the steaks weighed 1kg. Indirect and then reverse sear, few pear wood chunks. Served with smashed roast potatoes and a classic caramelised pear/rocket/Parmesan salad. Happy days… 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacKenzie Posted April 17, 2022 Report Share Posted April 17, 2022 @Troble or how about near the end of July. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony b Posted April 17, 2022 Report Share Posted April 17, 2022 Indeed. Closer to end of July here. 😢 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacKenzie Posted April 17, 2022 Report Share Posted April 17, 2022 (edited) A nice 3 inch prime rib steak dinner was the cook of the day- along with some fried mushrooms and roasted potatoes. The rib steak was marinated for 24 hours in a mix of soy sauce, beer, oil, Worchester Sauce, garlic, Dejon mustard and pepper. I know, I know, I sliced the steak too thin but it tasted wonderful.

Poochie Posted April 17, 2022 Report Share Posted April 17, 2022 You did it again MacKenzie... another beautiful cook and you forgot to send my invitation. It really does look delicious! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacKenzie Posted April 17, 2022 Report Share Posted April 17, 2022 @ Poochie, I thought about it but I knew you were going to cook something wonderful for Easter and I didn't want to get a reject letter. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony b Posted April 17, 2022 Report Share Posted April 17, 2022 Started off this Easter Sunday with a salmon and asparagus quiche (not cooked on the KK) BUT, dinner was done on the KK. Lamb chops and asparagus, lower grate, 325F, grape vine for smoking wood. Plated with melting potatoes and a Greek salad. Hope the Easter Bunny was good to all y'all! 🐰 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
