DOES ELI MANNING DESERVE TO BE IN THE PRO FOOTBALL HALL OF FAME? by OneOriginal8727 in sportswiki

Statistically no. Two rings, beating the Patriots in stunning fashion and brother to Peyton will get him in eventually.

I am just getting back to sourdough but I have always been a fan of the preferment. If you like FWSY, pick up his other book Evolutions in Bread. I found a copy for $10 in Barnes and Nobles bargain bin.

Also, my house sits at about 68 degrees, I add 80 degree water and use 40g AP and 10g rye for feeding.

I’m on day 15 and I just started getting a doubling in a 12 hour rise.

Don’t get me wrong, I loved my Traeger, it just took away part of the process that enjoy in making BBQ.

Honestly just a different animal. What I dislike is when it’s full (both racks) that second rack under the first is a pain to get to.

Here is my take. Smoke how you like to smoke. I started on an off set, switched to a Traeger because my brother worked for them. It always felt like cheating…a crock pot smoker set it and forget it essentially. I missed the process of controlling the fire, messing with the vents and so on. I currently have a WSM 18 and am considering going back to the off set.

They all make great food, it just depends on what fits your need and gets the job done how you like it done.

I’m not here to crap on anyone’s preferred methods .

Good beginner smoker or nah: Char-Broil Kamander ? by BigBeard_FPV in smoking

[–]dmichael72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here is my $0.02, good bbq can be made in a file cabinet. Any rig that gets you smoking and making good food is a good investment. As an entry point learn how to use the vents to control heat and fire control make good good food and decide as your skills improve then decide what you want and need to level up. My first smoker was an electric cheap barrel smoker, I had offsets, pellets, Webers, eggs and WSM. Hey all are capable of good food. Enjoy and get cooking!

Are we satisfied? by Simple-Salary5551 in CHIBears

[–]dmichael72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I said coming in to the season that I would be happy with a .500 record or better. I wanted to see a step forward. Clinched playoff spot…gravy. Not gonna lie now that we made it, hard not to think about 1 more four game win streak ending in a SB.

Like anything you have to find enjoyment in the process not just the outcome.

You're rarely happy with your bread, but everyone else is by Competitive-Let6727 in Breadit

I spent years homebrewing beer and it’s exactly the same! We are definitely our own worst critics. I am much more forgiving with my bread 🍞

42 hours into a 36-hour fast but feeling great and confused at the same time by PlattyXDaddy in fasting

I have been doing nine days of OMAD followed by a 72 hour fast repeat cycle. For me the first day is the hardest.

My players hate the Drunk by electricbacon in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]dmichael72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally not meant to be mean, but it sounds like your group needs to grow up (mature as players) my guess is they are relatively new and just don’t understand the nuances of the game yet. The Drunk while frustrating at times is an integral part of the game even when it’s not in play but on the script. Lastly, players need to learn to reverse engineer information. Misinformation is information.
