I guess I get a little touchy when I see cities and states bankrupt, schools not educating, etc.  General Motors bailed out. 

Not to mention I put a fair amount of work into that post.  

So he ruffled feathers and got pecked back.   As for mud wrestling, as it says in the good book, ask and ye shall receive...

It was a good post Del...about time you posted some pics.  It just seems like a lot of extra work to me. Seriously, how long does it take from start to finish? Just seems like too much fiddlin' around to me.

By the way, Silver Lake foods ad...better get down there for those pork loin roasts....:grin:

Can't make it, leaving for Raleigh NC.   Nephew finally getting married after hanging around with his fiance for like forever, maybe 6 years or more.  She finally finished all her vet residencies and he is working for a startup that got bought by twitter.   So knot being tied this weekend.   

The sous vide isn't really much fooling around.   Put the stuff in a zip lock, with desired seasonings etc.  put in water.  go kill some time, light some charcoal, watch tv, sit and watch the neighbors, abuse smurfy, whatever.   When you are ready, pull it out, sear it, maybe make a sauce, done.   Might take an hour, most of which is just sitting around or jogging or whatever. 

You pull the stuff out at your convenience.  1 hour 2hours makes no difference. 

Nothing ever gets overcooked and dried out.

" Nothing ever gets overcooked and dried out. "

 

Not at MY house, it don't. I grew up with leather pork chops and well done, overcooked meat. But then, who didn't in the 60's? "If that meats undercooked, you'll get worms!!"  ;)

I wouldn't say that they are necessarily a pit boss knock off, but the smoker box appears to be very similar. You won't be disappointed. I figure if it last a few years and I am still into smoking, I'll drop the extra dough for a traeger or green mountain. 

took to long but I finally  ordered the grill this morning!! looking forward to using it!!

My dad got a "Bighorn" on sale at the local Runnings for $300 for up at the lake. After using it once, I knew that I needed to have one but didn't know if I could justify $600 on a traeger. Looking online, I found the same Bighorn model at Rural King that I could get for $350 shipped.... definitely loving it. It makes things easy - no flare up, almost impossible to dry food out, no messing with charcoal. Truthfully, it is almost too easy. The Boston Butts were on for 11 hrs... just turn it on, put in a meat probe, and walk away.

the one mentioned here, they have gone up to $399.99 but they still had free shipping and no has them around here.  they were very pleasant to talk to and get info.

    • Sounds pretty sweet, alright. I will check them out, thanks.
    • If you really want to treat your wife (and yourself) with a remote operated trolling motor, the Minn Kota Ulterra is about easy as it gets.  Auto stow and deploy is pretty awesome.  You just have to turn the motor on when you go out and that the last time you have to touch it.   24V 80lb.  60 inch shaft is probably the right length for your boat.  They ain’t cheap - about $3k - but neither one of you would have to leave your seat to use it all day.
    • Wanderer, thanks for your reply. I do intend for it to be 24 volt, with a thrust of 70-80. Spot lock is a must (my wife is looking forward to not being the anchor person any more).  With my old boat we did quite a lot of pulling shad raps and hot n tots, using the trolling motor. Unlikely that we will fish in whitecaps, did plenty of that when I was younger. I also need a wireless remote, not going back to a foot pedal. We do a fair amount of bobber fishing. I don't think I will bother with a depth finder on the trolling motor. I am leaning toward moving my Garmin depth finder from my old boat to the new one, just because I am so used to it and it works well for me. I am 70 years old and kinda set in my ways...
    • Dang, new content and now answers.   First, congrats on the new boat!   My recommendation is to get the most thrust you can in 24V, assuming a boat that size isn’t running 36V.  80 might be tops?  I’m partial to MinnKota.     How do you plan to use the trolling motor is an important question too.     All weather or just nice weather?   Casting a lot or bait dragging?   Bobber or panfish fishing?   Spot lock?  Networked with depth finders?  What brand of depth finders?
    • We have bought a new boat, which we will be picking up this spring. It is an Alumacraft Competitor 165 sport with a 90 horse Yamaha motor. I will be buying and installing a trolling motor,  wondering if I can get some recommendations on what pound thrust I will want for this boat?  Also, I will be selling my old boat, is there a good way to determine the value on an older boat ( mid-80's with a 75 horse 2-stroke  Mariner motor)  I will appreciate any help with these questions.
    • Sketti...  not out of a jar either!
    • Lol yeah I watched that
