    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.

    What are they? They look like carrots grown in a very rocky garden?

    Awesome dogs / Crazy pets Thread

    I don't actually disagree with what you say, although there are probably only a relatively small number that self regulate effectively. Furthermore, there is no doubt that companies provide incentives to vets for selling their brands. E.g. Hills provided food at reduced cost to the vet...

    Awesome dogs / Crazy pets Thread

    Trimley, while I have not used either the fresh frozen foods or Purina, there is something to be said to feeding people food when needed. I have been through 3 months of loose stools in an old dog, and none of the digestive remedies provided by my vet worked for any length of time. Same with...

    Awesome dogs / Crazy pets Thread

    I have no right to be critical, but it sounds like your vet has missed something, and I am sorry if this thought only adds to your grief. Is there a vet teaching hospital or a specialty clinic nearby that you could discuss with your vet that she be referred to if he/she is stumped? Or if not...

    Diesel can fit

    And jury rigged comes from an old nautical term for a cobbled up temporary mast to solve a broken mast problem.

    Water Separator Wrench

    I'll third the idea of gently warming up that region. There are a bunch of plastic parts in that region that judging from the frost all over it are really cold. Plastic is brittle, and force may cause more troubles. It normally doesn't take much force to get the water separator off.

    Gear heads ,,283

    It could be worse, when not only do they not know anything, they assume you don't either. Went into an O Reillys for a bottle of PowerService for anti gel, and the kid tried to hand me a bottle of gas preservative, and another kid came over and asked was I sure I had a diesel engine? By that...

    Property tax

    For your entertainment I have received in the last couple of weeks an email and text from presumably a representative of my registered political party asking if I'd be interested in running for any of the local offices, and to contact this person for information on how to run. Yikes...

    L3301 running away with itself

    I don't know if this fits with the error codes but when these models were first out there were a few runaways and there was a campaign to solve the problem"cold weather fix kit". Basically if water vapor gets into air breather and oil separator and freezes it causes a runaway. If you search...

    Weird Stalling on Brand New L3902…

    I agree with cold weather seat switch diagnosis, but look up where the sensor actually is in your model. In some of the newer Kubotas it is either a pad embedded IN the seat or a pad velcro'd to the front of the seat. To solve the problem caused by my down coat not allowing my weight to press...

    What's cookin' boys?

    Yum! I bought a whole tenderloin yesterday, trying to decide how to cut it up and freeze in more manageable pieces. Sliced off a couple of pieces for dinner last night, and flavor was good. What was in your marinade? Might vacuum seal a hunk ready to thaw and sous vide for company.

    B2650HSDC Recall Notice

    While I do have a B2650, I don't have a back hoe, so would not need a recall fix. Whitetiger is a professional tech and so gets the recall info.
