One of the gauge wheels on my MMM decided Sunday was its last day. My “yard” is pretty rough so bumps from the deck are always present. On the second lap, where I am close to gravel, it started throwing rocks. Quickly stopped but I already has some nice shrapnel cuts to my face. Good thing I...

Wife does that. I like to pull it out as long as possible especially if I am driving somewhere. I’m not the one losing money at that point

Wanted to share so others can learn. I got a text alert about a possible fraudulent cc charge on Saturday while at the Steam Thresher show. Crappy cell service so I verified that the charge was on my cc and not mine. Told the wife I’d report it when we got home. Sadly this happens multiple...

That time of year to go look at old iron. Hot but enjoyable

Same. Just summer heat and the smoke is well north. Went up to NW OH to watch the BigBoy rolling West back through. Hot and humid but a beautiful day. Cool on the drive up in the low 70’s. Didn’t need the AC going up but after an hour in the sun, needed it coming back. I think we hit 91 today.

Took a day off to go watch the BigBoy rolling West today. Impressive machine.

Camera is back up. Seems they want to nest on the spikes. Storms rolling in so Orville is on deterrent duty tonight. Quick update. Orville is a miserable failure.

Here you go. I use this on all pork with the exception of ribs and it is great on chicken. It is an adaptation of a rub from Chris Lilly.

I took advantage of the Prime Day sales and bought an additional security camera for my alarm system. I wanted one that capture the man door and garage door for my barn. Easy. Mount the solar panel, install camera mount, pair camera, plug in panel and adjust for proper coverage. Got it done...

Well there is an NDA to be signed. Just seeing this today. I had to up my bird war efforts last evening and forgot. I got no problem sharing. I would not have offered if I did.

I will sometimes use my rib rub on chicken. If interested I can send the ingredient list after work

It was a smaller shoulder and finished off at 4AM. Let it rest for 3 hrs and pulled. Lunch is at 2. Who’s in?

I’m honor of our Independence, I’m keeping the smoker going all weekend. First up time to restock my bacon. 🥓 On now, pork shoulder for Saturday picnic
