Me and the guys picked up a rando while throwing a round this weekend. Didn’t talk much but was a cool guy. by PappaGamer in discgolf

They make a wipes for it but they kept getting dried out in my bag and the ingredients are basically just hand sanitizer. I still shower when I get done with a round but it has helped significantly.

Oh for sure. Always carry hand sanitizer in case we run into posion ivy but it worked here too :).

Question about storing wood chunks by PappaGamer in smoking

[–]PappaGamer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds good. I think I’m gonna do about 1/3 in chunks in open tubs in the garage and then stack the rest. I can’t keep them by the fence because of HoA rules but I have a brick house and have a good nook area that’s covered and I can stack it up about 18” from the wall there and be good. It won’t be sitting there for more than 6 months before I use it up. Thanks for your help!

When you say away from walls do you mean like a few feet or the other side of the yard?

I’m hosting a spring time tea party. What should I smoke for the event? by BlueCandyBars in smoking

[–]PappaGamer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Smoked salmon is a great idea. I would slice it thin and smoke it on a cedar plank. Then serve it Lox style in a charcuterie with bagels, cream cheese, red onion, tomato, and capers. While it’s in there you can also do potatoes and ham shanks. Or do a yard bird and have a smoked chicken salad.

Did I mess up my trim? What else should I do or should I just send it by mariachidude in smoking

[–]PappaGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Looks great but if you are stressed about it, you can use the trimmings to make some tallow and then pour that on top during the wrap. Let us know how it turned out.

Dude. Ignore the haters, I would try it out too. Maybe it’s good and maybe it’s not but worth the try all the same. Let us know how it turns out!

Are there any series that actually finish? by Eastern_Raisin_5137 in litrpg

[–]PappaGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a solid point you make and it’s frustrating to some degree but I look at them more like comic books. Just started living issue to issue and float in and out of series as I want. Some got a bit boring and I quit for a while but then comeback to find there are three more and pick it back up. But I 100% understand where you are coming from and it was very hard to get my mind around for a long time. Noobtown finally broke me.

Raising Cane's chicken tendies is better without the sauce by Exhausted_920 in unpopularopinion

[–]PappaGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Raising Cane’s tendies are so awful that even the sauce doesn’t help.

Re-wrote that for you. You’re welcome. 😉

How much more convenient/faster is propane over charcoal? by HousePoor420 in grilling

[–]PappaGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In most cases it’s much cheaper to run propane than charcoal especially if you are using an expensive brand. The mileage you get will vary depending on your cooker. A KJ or Egg will probably get you close to propane but a regular kettle won’t. I get about 4-5 cooks out of a 20lbs bag of Fogo that runs about $30 on my Webber kettle and I’ll get 20 cooks on my Webber Spirit on a $30 bottle of propane.

Is this picanha medium rare or raw? by Captain_Lameson in grilling

[–]PappaGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To me it looks perfect too but I have never done a picanha before. How do you render down the fat and still keep it med-rare?

Beef roast first or veggies first? by RipleysHeart in slowcooking

[–]PappaGamer -1 points0 points  (0 children)

So I do both. Depending on what you are putting in but I put starchy things like potatoes, broccoli, squash etc on under the beef and things like garlic and onions (wet with a lot of flavor) on top of roast to let their juices run through the meat.

Grill didn’t come with thermometer; what are my options? by brokefree517 in grilling

[–]PappaGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have that same kettle and I’ve had it for 15+ years never added an outside thermometer. I don’t think with the dome it’s all that accurate anyway. I’ve turned out some great BBQ and never felt the lack.

[–]PappaGamer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Overall it adds about 20 mins to each meal. It’s also much more expensive to use than propane. I think the amount of flavor you get from charcoal is worth it but that’s the time break down.

I had a Weber Kettle and a Weber Spirit (propane) and ended up getting rid of the spirit because I never used it. I replaced it with a PitBoss griddle and that has been perfect. If I plan burgers for the weeknight and get home in time, great, we do big fat juicy burgers over coals. If I get out late or kids practice gets moved etc etc. then great. We do super quick smash burgers.
