    Sheepfarmer

    Thanks guys, I am hanging in there, way too much time in doctor's offices though, think of you all often and wonder how everyone is doing. Still have my tractors and trying to track down someone to swap off the snowblower for the mower deck for me so I can mow in air-conditioned comfort. I...

    Was this luck or skill?

    Or he learned from the same school as a friend of a friend of mine. My friend needed a CL to haul his horses with a big truck, and so got his buddy who was a commercial truck driver to teach him. One who had several plaques for having driven hundreds of thousands of accident free miles. Any...

    B2650 stalls out when pressing pedal or engaging PTO???

    It is how your rear is engaging with the seat switch. It is a pad velcro'd to the back of the seat. Do you have a down coat on? I have put a thin piece of Styrofoam under mine. Since I regrettably gained about 10 lbs, I don't have as much difficulty. Also it doesn't like really cold weather.

    Mouse victory

    It's a small hassle but I keep my barn cat employees alive by keeping them shut in the barn. Owls, coyotes, eagles, bobcats and this is the suburbs! When the big sliding doors are open I keep them shut in the tack room. They are fed in there so easy to do, just shake the crunchy container...

    What's cookin' boys?

    It is a combined heating element and water circulator. The pot is one I happened to have. Any container that is deep enough to cover the device will work. I use clothes pins to fasten ziploc bags to the edge and keep the meat submerged. Or you can weight it down with something. They sell...

    What's cookin' boys?

    Thank you I was wondering about trying a little liquid smoke. I have a brisket in the freezer, but too big for the sous vide. Need to find someone with a smoker nearby. The sous vide is pretty easy, lots of recipes giving Temps, times, etc. Most call for a quick sear after it is done...

    What's cookin' boys?

    The kind I have is an Anova model 500-10. There are lots of kinds, but I didn't particularly want to run mine off my phone. This one has on off, time, and temperature controls, all I need. I got mine at a local kitchen shop for about $100.

    What's cookin' boys?

    Here is a recipe supposed to be for breakfast, a baked oats casserole, but the 3 cups of berries and the cup of chopped almonds, eggs, sugar, milk elevate it to dessert as far as I am concerned.

    What's cookin' boys?

    I was looking at that smoked brisket above with the thermometer in it, and I decided that my little sous vide gadget that clips onto a pot of water was a poor man's smoker. I ran across a recipe that turns chuck roast into prime rib with no additional browning or dirty pans. Take raw roast and...

    OK kids I need

    I don't know. There was thread a long time ago that had more people chiming in that said they had tried different combinations. Kubota recommends against buying certain combinations, so you might look it up that way, or ask a dealer to check.

    OK kids I need

    I have factory spacers and turf tires and have been happily mowing with that deck for some time, but I don't have to lock it in the up position. It will hit the tires. Yours may or may not hit depending on your tires.
