Hey everyone I have meant no harm by this blog. I guess the word subscribe was the wrong choice. Follow would probably have been more fitting there is no cost involved just a daily email with a new recipe. I am very passionate about the Big Green Egg and food in general. I am not holding recipes hostage just trying to create a little buzz about my new blog. Thanks

Just sayin'
I figured somebody would mention this sooner. The pic quality is not there and is not really making me want to try any of your recipes.Rowlett, Texas

Yeah. Of course, our nesting will beseen by many as assitude too. Ah well
Food blogs are fine. If they are different and original and updated, they will survive
But the notion that this place is a similar venue for some really creative food freaks is correct too. I think that Pat's comment was taken the wrong way by El Jefe. Irony is, though he says he's been here longer, perhaps his lack of interaction has made it so he isn't aware of the toneed egli avea del cul fatto trombetta -Dante -
Welcome aboard and I have found that most everyone here is happy to share with those that are excited about the egg and cooking in general. In my opinion, it was the way you presented the blog. Many of us have them and we don't repeatedly post teasers and then say "subscribe to my blog." Just put a link in your sig, a watermark on your photos and folks here will find it if they are interested. Just my $0.02...Large and Small BGE * www.quelfood.com

Thanks everyone

I was thinking of starting a blog. I just don't know how. :S

Just to add to the conversation, here's my contribution:

(genuinely trying to be helpful here) It appears you're using a point & shoot digital camera without a macro setting...the photo quality would improve if you backed up a foot & then cropped the resulting photos in Picasa or other photo-editing software. Some of the blurring is probably related to low, indoor lighting: the sensor on an average point & shoot requires a long exposure time in low light, leading to the camera-shake blurring. So turn on all the lights in your kitchen or take those photos outside in brighter light. A piece of plain white foamboard (easily found at a craft store or WalMart) just out of camera range (or crop it out later) is very helpful as a cheap light reflector.
'Course, a better camera helps, too, but I get decent closeups out of a P&S Olympus with a dedicated macro shooting mode.
But the best photos in the world aren't gonna make me try the mustard-dipped chicken coated in crushed cheetos recipe. Sorry. Chacun a son gout. -
Thanks for your help with the camera currently just using my iPhone camera but I am looking into a better camera. Pictures aside the chicken is very tasty don't be scared of the color it turns out really moist and crispy on the outside.

One day, you'll be able to take pictures as good as Rick (RTD to the long-timers). Wait, they ran him off too. :laugh:
