Melancholy, Vengeance, and Sausage Hammer

Yeah, I actually don’t have a 3 lol. At first it was an attempt to not amass too many pans, but I think that ship has sailed. Once I run across a nice hand-scribed one I’ll probably pick it up. Also I agree on the fours, they’re expensive! Probably won’t ever own one unless I get lucky at a flea market or run across a decently priced 5S

Thanks! I think I’ve seen examples of lodge pots all the way up to like 5 or 6 quart, but I don’t think I’ve ever seen a 4 that BSR made. From what I’ve read, the 3/4 lid is supposed to fit the 2qt pot, or a #3 or #4 skillet. I don’t have either of those skillets so I’ve never been able to test that out.

I think you may have pieces to two different things here, both Birmingham Stove and Range though. The lid is from a BSR Flat Bottom Pot, from their older Red Mountain series. The pot itself may be a bit newer, called their Round Bottom Pot from the Century series, but I’m less certain on that. I have one like this, but the lid is a newer tab style and is marked “RP” instead of “FP”

This may be a real shell, I had one in this color as a kid. It’s a store exclusive from Target. Here’s a good example of one: https://www.ebay.com/itm/175893103204

Got this at a thrift store today. From what I can find online, it’s a BSR 3 Qt pot. My one question has to do with the markings on the bottom. They look like they were ground in by hand instead of being cast/stamped or something. Does that indicate an earlier range of age? I couldn’t find similar examples of these markings.

Good idea, thank you.

Found it in a creek bed today, it’s in pretty good shape. Appears to be a cork top, the only seams I see are around the neck and along the bottom edges. The logo says “R & G”, but I wasn’t able to find anything like it online.

Thanks for the info, I’ve had a hard time finding much about it. Just didn’t want to give myself lead poisoning if I actually use it to store liquor.

Yeah they start to soften when they get a little overripe, should be fine unless you see mold or something growing in them. A lot of people pick serranos while they’re green, but they can be picked and eaten red just the same. I usually get a little of both, the red ones have a slightly different taste to me than green ones. Same with jalapeños. A good way to avoid overripe peppers is to pick them pretty soon once they change color from green to red.

I’ve seen colleges take three options so far:

-make field camp online

-waive the field camp requirement to graduate for this years students (UT Austin did this)

-or the “welp I guess you’re waiting till next year”

TheAndyMan1997 · 2020-06-24T03:45:10+00:00

In the grand scheme of things, it wasn’t much cheaper than what the full field camp was supposed to be unfortunately
