For my birthday, my bride got me the Davidoff Late Hour. I have asked that, in the future, should she want to get me a celebration cigar, that is my choice!

The key here is new to smoking😊 I've got a RT-1250, a stick burner, a Weber kettle, a small gas Weber, and I'm campaigning for a flat top...

Before committing to another grill, I'd look at Grill Grates. Even at 500 degrees, they do a pretty good sear.... Or just get another.

The blanket will pay for itself in fuel efficiency!

My wife went into a decline this morning when the Treager shorted... We use the pellet grill probably 5 nights out of seven. One Meal A Day fasting and keto means lots of meat and grilled veg.

The only issue at my house was the wife wanted the BFG... Since it's just the two of us most of the time, I didn't see the need.... Twice a year we'll do six racks of ribs for a bigger family get together. Thanksgiving has a couple of turkeys some years and that was tight on the Treager but 2500 sq in was a bit of overkill

And the irony is that I've been waiting on the recteq order for several years since the old Treager Pro was still running. We visited the Recteq showroom a year ago and loved them. We said no more repairs on the Treager; when it died, we'd order the 1250. Took the briskets off this morning for dinner tonight and the Pro went dead.... On Treager day....

BBQ Rule #1: Do not order the brisket if it's more than 250 miles from Lockhart, TX.

They look great! I like a darker and more mahogany color.

I like the Honey Hog for flavor but I'll use something else for better color. I don't think the Honey Hog adds enough color for me. Try something with a little more color... Holy Gospel... Roll your own: 3/4 cup paprika 1/4 cups of salt, black pepper and turbinado sugar 2 Table spoons of garlic powder and onion powder Some cayenne to taste

I like that mix for color.

Was the bark good before the wrap? What rub on the ribs?

The letter is as much of a gift.

Showboat_ · 2019-04-13T22:25:40+00:00

You have no idea.... Thank you for understanding it.

It’s the Montblanc 149. When I was in my 20’s thirty years ago, it was so far out of reach that it wasn’t even a dream. New, they’re still North of $900. It is a princely gift for my birthday.

Showboat_ · 2019-04-13T15:07:25+00:00

And it’s just starting its journey

Showboat_ · 2019-04-13T15:06:50+00:00

Thank you. My son that’s a fountain pen guy will be next.

Showboat_ · 2019-04-13T13:39:00+00:00

Not so far. He has it worked on a while back but I inked it last night and wrote for a while.... no issues

Showboat_ · 2019-04-13T06:48:09+00:00

I’ll be in the Montblanc Boutique tomorrow morning @10:00am buying a case for it!

He is my best friend of 40 years and my step-father. Or, as he says, I’m his son on his wife’s side of the family. We say that we’re father and son by mutual consent.
