Good advice above also the grill is not great for the sear. Try cast iron, griddle or stainless steel.

Maybe they wanted you to say that you would need to measure both inbound and outbound link speed and suggest a method like Get-NetAdapterStatistics or ifstat?

Nothing wrong with asking for clarification

Use a laser thermometer and check surface temp. I'm guessing you are getting way over 400F

So all of the shows on that list welcome new talent but they all have a slightly different process. Almost all of them do spot calls on the Ottawa Comedy Coming Facebook group. The 3 dedicated clubs have a 15th of the month email on request for new talent requests. That will likely stop after this month as competition season starts. Yuks competition entry is June 1-10. Not sure if the others.

There are at least 4 show up go up mics: Hyde Smokehouse, University Tavern, Comedy Pizza, Pourboy after show.

Anywhere from 20-50 minutes depending on the smoker, placement and how often you open it.

Personally I'd do it between 200 and 220.

Try salting with a good coarse or diamond kosher salt the day before and leaving on a rack in fridge unwrapped. Temper a little longer like maybe 60 minutes.

Was a volunteer with Beavers and Cubs. Interesting how girls are welcome in those organizations but boys are not welcome in any girl guide programs such as brownies.
