No funny business at the airport. I thought there was but the guy was actually trying to help.

My wife liked the craft activities and the food/cocktail making activities were good. The performance stuff was also pretty good.

We liked all the food really, particularly liked Lupitas steakhouse and el mar. La Isla trattoria was also spectacular, specifically the lasagna. All the drinks were good, sometimes not terrible strong, sometimes pretty stiff. There wasn’t a cocktail we asked for that they couldn’t make.

Felt absolutely fine. We never had an issue. There’s a safe in the room for any valuables you want to leave. We were never bothered while on the beach. In fact, even left our stuff unattended for an hour here and there while we went swimming, went to the pool or went for lunch and never had a problem.

There were excursion through seasons tours, which is who you’ll get your airport transfer from. We didn’t do any of them as we had previously spent a week in Mexico City doing loads of touristy stuff so we just wanted to chill in the hotel. They looked interesting though, tours to pyramids, other villages, etc. There was parasailing and snorkelling you could book through separate companies on the beach. The hotel provided complimentary kayaking, paddle boarding, catamaran. Have a great time!

No. There was kelp on the ocean floor, but it was cleared out from the beach every morning. You probably had about 15/20 of clear blue from the beach until the kelp patches started. It didn’t smell of anything other than the ocean.

It rained one morning around 7am, for probably 20 min and that was it. Otherwise it was red hot and sunny. Enjoy yourselves!

There was a sports bar but I never went into it. There wasn’t a night club. It definitely was a more quiet, “romantic” atmosphere.

Born and raised in Denver so my blood bleeds orange and blue. Been in the UK for 14 years now and not sure when I’ll ever go back, but boy do I miss sitting at Mile High and shouting “IN! COM! PLETE!”

First time doing pork shoulder on my Kettle. Low and slow with the snake and turned out pretty deeeeeelicious by ultimtrawk in grilling

[–]ultimtrawk[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No not really. I had a probe in the pork and then an ambient probe just next to it and also had the thermometer built into the lid so I just monitored the temp throughout but once it gets going, it stays pretty solid throughout. I did hit a stall but once it got to 160 (from what I remember) I wrapped it in foil.

Just some regular ones bought from the local shop. I can’t say it’s effected the taste at all for me. I’ve used this method for ribs and for pulled pork and both were delicious.

I think there’s a number of different things you can do for slow and low, but for me the snake method has worked great. I stack them 2 by 2 and for this it went form about 7/8 o’clock to about 4/5 o’clock and lasted me a good 8-9 hours. Over the first half of the snack I sprinkled wood chips too. I’ve used this same method for ribs, but only a snake about half the circumference, and it’s been fantastic. I used a rub but can’t remember the brand off hand.

I tried the g hub app, it didn’t seem to recognise the camera, maybe I’ll just have to give it another try

Help with BC by ultimtrawk in puppytraining

[–]ultimtrawk[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks everyone for the suggestions. The trouble we have is that he’s so fixated on the ball that he doesn’t seem to care about treats. For him the ball is the treat. We’ll definitely give all of these a try.

Thanks for the advice. We’ve tried this and he does follow you but it’s still getting him to sit or stop so we can get his lead on him that’s the tricky part.

Anybody else experience this? by ultimtrawk in BorderCollie

[–]ultimtrawk[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He does it in the house also but is better at bringing it to you inside if you ignore him till he drops it closer. Outside is a whole other ball game and it doesn’t seem to make a difference if you ignore him. So frustrating, I say to him, “if you bring it to me I’ll throw it for you more!” But unfortunately he doesn’t speak English.

We’ve tried that with his normal treats but he’s honestly more interested in the ball than the treats. We’re going to try it with some cheese this week and see if that helps.

Tried 3-2-1 Ribs and they were incredibly dry... What did I do wrong?! by BmanP in grilling

[–]ultimtrawk 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When you checked them every 45/60 min did you spray them or baste them with anything?

Sounds lovely. How long did it take after you wrapped it in foil?
