Conquer Club

I forgot to mention a couple of locations of Dicky's opened in town. We decided we better investigate. Had pretty low expectations from the last time we went to one years ago in Washington State.

I hope it was not just a good night, it was quite delicious. Apart from the beans everything was the way we like it, flavour full, good smoke, nice sauces.

I took the blackstone out of the box yesterday and did some minor assembly and first try and seasoning it...it went ok but

IT STARTED RAINING TODAY AND I FORGOT TO COVER IT CUS I THOUGHT IT WAS DONE RAINING FOR A WHILE FML

It's really not the right tool for you if you can't take / store it inside manno.

I loaded the chimney a bit more than usual and let it hangout for half an hour. I don’t know if there’s something wrong with my bag of Royal Oak briquettes but it took that long to get lit. Seems like a long time.

Sausages turned great but I don’t love charcoal yet.

I rarely have problems with Kingsford. After 30 minutes in my chimney started, my coals are ready to COOK..!

And don't forget the wood chips..!

tbf, I cannot recall using Royal Oak and I do not know anyone who does.

As a digression, at the Beach several years back, I met a guy (from WVA, as I recall) who worked at a Kingsford manufacturing plant and he told me that it was tough to get the "K" on the briquets. Kingsford is good and #1 for many reasons. imo.

I build a fire using any wood off the land. Dig a deep fire pit with a keyhole for cooking on the side. Have an and old cast iron grilling plate that stabs into the ground. Still works.

For my birthday, my wife took me out for a BBQ dinner. I got a sampler plate of pulled porked, smoked brisket, and smoked sausage. For sides I did collard greens and baked beans. There was also a small bit of corn bread. ALL VERY GOOD. The place: Mission Barbecue.

And, at the end of the meal, I was in a GOOD MOOD. We had a good chat with our server, whom we found out is their community ambassador. He is a good young man and is considering becoming a firefighter.

Besides their food, I like their MISSION, too.

I like soup.

Hey, KB, Get your SOUP outta my Kitchen. It ruins the aroma of good BBQ.

Good barbeque.

Silent scream.

I like oxymorons.

I like soup, but you can't beat a beef stew in the winter.

Are you the OXY, Moron?

And did I create a NEW oxy-moron?
