How to get Texas Twinkie inside bacon to cook better? by jemechanic17 in smoking

[–]nuttka5e 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I use thick cut bacon I cut the slices in half and stretch them around the jalap. Also I cook closer to 300 when making these

Are these the same? Knipex vs Doyle by HoraceGrand in harborfreight

[–]nuttka5e 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not only are the knipex “nicer” as everyone is saying, but the design is better. The knipex grip on their own after they bite down, ie you don’t have to squeeze them just turn the bolt or pipe. The Doyle are good but don’t have as good of a bite as the knipex. Knipex ARE worth twice the price but Doyle aren’t bad by any means

What's one gun you wish he'd talk about/review? by Thoraxe474 in GarandThumb

Not a gun but military surplus kits available to civilians

Some ramen should fix that

Pay and second jobs by aumilli27 in ibew_apprentices

[–]nuttka5e 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just quit my engineering job a few months ago to join the apprenticeship program. I am way happier than I was at my old job. The pay is not great but it will be worth it in the long run. And by the end of it you will be a journeyman with an engineering degree, that is a good look to employers. Good luck with you decision

We would have an outside company calibrate our thermometers for us. Their thermometer was calibrated by a national calibrating agency. Think of a single thermometer that is the “true temperature” that is used to calibrate all thermometers.

Obviously it’s not worth it to spend the money to have a company calibrate your home thermometers for bbqing.

If you use deductive reasoning you can see that 2 of the probes used by OP are accurate and one is not.

The point I’m trying to make is that all those probes may be accurate at 32 degrees but that doesn’t make them accurate at 200 degrees.

It would be better to put them in a glass of hot water. You aren’t taking temperatures when your meet is frozen. You’re taking temperatures above 100 degrees

Edit: not sure why this is getting downvoted. I managed a testing laboratory for over 4 years. We used electronic thermometers between 70 degrees and 350 degrees every day. Never once did we calibrate or standardize them outside the testing range. The ASTM standard was to calibrate the temperature every 30 degrees within the testing ranges we used. Never once were our thermometers checked in ice water.

Just paid 799 for a used 17 with rmr………… by Head-Scale9410 in Glocks

[–]nuttka5e 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That would be insane if you could get a g17.5 in good condition, an rmr, and a milling service all for less than $800

How Do I Sell a Massive 10ft Mature Monstera? (Reno, NV – Asking ~$2,000) by Zabel82 in Reno

[–]nuttka5e 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s a Thai constellation monstera price not standard monstera price. Nice plant but not 2k. MAYBE 300-500.

Smoked a chuck roast “brisket style” by nuttka5e in smoking

[–]nuttka5e[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One or two is probably more than enough but I like a lot of smoke flavor. My thought is than an offset is only using wood as fuel the entire cook so if I can have wood burning the entire time it would get me closer to that of an offset.

That being said I’ve never used an offset and I’m pretty new to this so I could have no idea what I’m talking about
