  • Fond du Lac, WI by way of Stillwater,OK by way of Anadarko, OK. Every year, 60,000 Sooner fans head to Dallas, TX for the Red River Rivalry. The average IQ for both states goes up 10 points. Go OSU Cowboys!

  • I'm not a big fan of Gates. Way over rated IMHO. Authur Bryants is good. The one on Brooklyn street is an experience. There is one in the Ameristar Casino that is good but doesn't have the same "interesting service".  A local KC guy took Anthony Bou…
    in BBQ joints in KC Comment by Hiites January 21
  • I do them just as everyone suggested except I like to brine them before cooking. Dissolve 1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup kosher salt in 1 qt hot water. Add 2 teaspoons whole peppercorns, 1 teaspoon granulated garlic. Then add 1qt ice cubes. Put in chi…
    in Bone in chicken breasts Comment by Hiites February 2012
  • As stated before, once the temp gets too high, it's hard to bring down because all of the ceramic material is acting as a thermal mass and is giving off heat, keeping the temp up. A method that I have used is to spritz the outside of the egg with wa…
    in Trouble getting my temperature down to 225 Comment by Hiites May 2011
  • I use a Tormek and I sharpen my Henkels Chef's knife to 18* on each side and my Shun to 16*. The Shun has harder steel and can take the thinner edge. Use a good steel between sharpenings but don't use a "sharpening steel". You only want to use a ste…

  • Do a google search for "Dan the Man Everglades Airboat Charters". You might take a look at some Youtube videos of his tours, they are pretty good. If you take one of his tours, tell him Brad Moser from Anadarko sent you. Brad

  • I ran into the same issue when I built my egg table. I had inset the paver into the shelf so I didn't like the idea of adding another paver, so I raised the shelf that the egg sits on. I didn't even take the egg out of the table while doing it. It w…

  • Lets hope it's dry this year!
    in OKC Booked! Comment by Hiites January 2011
  • Someone posted not too long ago about it, sort of gauging the interest. If one is held in the Summer of 2012, count me in! http://www.eggheadforum.com/index.php?option=com_simpleboard&func=view&id=1015363&catid=1#

  • I'm sorry for your loss. You had a beautiful dog. This is my favorite picture of Rowdy Since your dog loved the snow, I thought I would include this pic. Rowdy loves the snow also. And this is Josie when she was about 6 months old. …
    in Will you Eggers do me a favor? Comment by Hiites December 2010
  • Looks like the wife and I will be living there this time next year, in the Fond du Lac area. Going to be quite a change from the Oklahoma weather that I'm used to. If that first winter doesn't kill me, you can count me in for an eggfest :laugh:

  • That looks great! I love me some roasted garlic!
    in Roasted Garlic Comment by Hiites December 2010
  • Thanks everyone for the kind words. It weighed 5.0lbs. After the initial 20minutes at 500*, it cooked another 40minutes at 350* to make it up to 130*, then it rested for 15 minutes, tented, to come up to 142*. The crust was awesome. @Big Daddy- tha…
    in Cooked a small prime rib tonight Comment by Hiites December 2010
  • I used granite tile on the top of my table and I cut the curves with an ARCUS blade in a circular saw. It worked great. I had to set up a jig to cut the correct radius but it wasn't too difficult. I also rigged some tubing to be able to squirt water…
    in Tile for BGE Table Top? Comment by Hiites November 2010
  • Hey Hillbilly, I don't mean to hijack the thread but I cut my granite tile top radius with an ARCUS blade in a circular saw. Pictures are in the eggtable forum. Do a google search for ARCUS blades and check them out. I was very impressed with the …
    in Old Table w/ New Granite Top Comment by Hiites October 2010
  • Very nice! Is it open on the back side to be able to adjust the air flow? Was the stone very hard to work with?
    in New Stone and Tile Cooktop Comment by Hiites August 2010
  • Thanks for the compliments. Aaron, I didn't use a tablesaw at all. It was all with a circular saw, radial arm saw (but a miter saw would work just as well) and a drill. You shouldn't need any other tools but a few clamps will come in handy to use as…
    in My cedar and granite tile egg table (pic heavy) Comment by Hiites August 2010
  • Hey Darian, yeah, it's me :laugh: . In all fairness, I have to say that the GIANT margarita that was being passed around scared me. I knew I'd better get out while I could still drive. It was nice visiting while I did hang around though. I have to s…
