Ok give me your address, I'll be right over. I'm such a sucker for burnt ends. Little man looks about the right age to take home now that all the hard work is done he he he.
Oh no he's a little terrorist. Looks me square in the eyes as he chucks a car right at the tv. He's an angel for everyone else, though. He's all yours lol

The burnt ends turned out really good. I swear even better the next day when i simmered what was left in the oven at 350 for thirty minutes. So tender they just melt. Fuck me they were so good

The butt ended up cooking 16 hours! I freaked out a bit when they were 5 hours into the stall, at the 12 hour mark @162 and not budging. So i wrapped in foil and they started creeping up steadily and pulled off at 200, finished at 208. On at 7am off at 11pm. I thought they would be dry as a bone but ended up perfect.

To my surprises, not one hard part on the bark, when first seeing them. My best work yet. Everyone was pleased and gladly took some home.

Oh those burnt ends! How did you smoke them originally. BTW looking you in the eye and chucking the toy is a testing program, apparently he's decided to skip latency and go right for adolescence. I've decided I was a bit hasty in my decision to adopt him. I'll settle for pictures until he achieves majority.
Thanks

Went to my first grow buddy's stork party today.
I'm pretty sure I got my daily calorific intake met with all the snacks and platters.
Dropped mom and daughter off at mom in law's. Got the house to myself and the cats till Friday.
stork party = baby shower? gifts for the mother and the coming baby?

i dealt with that by just calmly picking up whatever was thrown, and putting it on a high shelf where he couldn't get to it. don't give it back to him, just put it back in the toy box in a day or two. if he does it again, put it up for longer....took about two weeks, and he learned that all it got him was his favorite toys taken away for a few days...

Went low and slow at 225 for 3 hours on some apple and cherry wood. Cut into much smaller pieces than last time.

Then into a pan of butter, brown sugar and honey, covered for 2 hours at 250. Followed up with a sauce.

Found an interesting read while waiting through the stall.

That's what we've started doing and it's starting to work out. Also we're getting better at ignoring the tantrums until he just gets tired of throwing them. I'm actually really good at ignoring them, my wife not so much.

Based on the size I wondered if they would fall through the grate! I imagined using something like this


Thanks for the info.

she alright?
nope she's busted up pretty bad. She went in the a routine x-ray to check things out with her, she's been having health problems. The story goes, that the x-ray techs had her, told her to walk up some stairs...well we all know she couldn't and they didn't help her up them. She slipped and fell.

It's not good....broken ankle, 2 crack knee caps so far....they're working on her more right now....they're thinking femur as well...we won't know for sure.....till rest of the test are done.

she's smiling but hurting right now......gave her a kiss on the cheek before i left for work, my mom is with her right now....ugh.....

I like to use lexel on roofs , it works so much better/longer than silicone on asphalt.
Also I'm sure you already know but I thought I would mention that the expected life span of the neoprene washer is about 11 years. When I'm selling someone a metal roof I always try and make sure they understand the life span of the metal, the color, and the washer and that it might not be as long as they might think. But also if installed properly they'll be good.
Also was it Michael that got you and if so...... I'm glad you survived. A helluva storm.... I came down to work Ivan, Opel, and others from PC-Mobile.
The house is 15 years old, and we had the screws replaced after about 8-9 years. The guy who did it then was a three man company. Him, his brother and their best friend. Now he has 35-40 working for him. I know he is busy as hell, but I bet he can get it done in a day if he can fit us in.

My buddy told me some tricks in case it takes a while for the other guy. The stripped ones you use a thicker screw. Duh. Makes good sense. Why didn't I think of that.

Yep it was Michael. Eye passed three miles to the west of us. 130 mph winds for 90 minutes. It was so bad for so long, you got used to your shit blowing away. When the pump house went, the wife ask, "did you see how long it rolled? Pretty neat" {other than breaking every spigot in my garden, it was pretty neat}
