So it’s like a FleshLight for sea pipes?

@sgh Very cool

@sgh question those pipes flex enough just to pick one up and bring to sea level?

Yes sir, they are made from X65 carbon so they have a good bit of flex. Here is a shot of the North Line coming up with the Pig Catcher in place. This was raised from a depth of 50 feet.

If you want to see just how flexible the pipe is go to about the 6 minute mark of this vid...

Flipping between the USMNT friendly and the Nations League final.  The Dutch and Portuguese are so far beyond us it might as well not be the same sport.

He’s a streaky player. When it’s on, it’s on.

Just pulled dinner off the egg. Skin is nice and crispy.  I attribute this to the egg getting up to 500 with the lid shut then dampen it back and chicken on at 400F.

Boneless chicken thighs marinated in a mixture of gochujang, rice vinegar, soy, fish sauce, honey, grated garlic, and grated ginger.  Served with collards and kimchi.

@Acn - Don't know about the food deal (looks great-kimchi for the win) but you are well below the low level alarm in the double oaked department.

Funny you should mention that, double oaked is on the menu for this evening to get the bottle off the shelf.

Great job, Dad. Looks like you're raising him right. SMH.

Thought I should give another food group (besides brisket) a go in the near-term.  Below is a shot of a few shrimp, loaded with horseradish, jalapeno slice each side and wrapped in bacon (par cooked in advance).  (Stole the horseradish idea from an @fishlessman post regarding juicing up shrimp and likely stole the jala idea there as well-not the same post...).

Getting the bacon right in the par-cook has been my challenge.  Worked out well for this cook.

May have to use habaneros next time for a little more juice.

Thanks for lookin-

Finishing up a late night burnt ends cook.  I used Stubbs Original to get more heat instead of sweet.  Pretty tasty.

Setting the bear trap for what is hopefully the final time. 

Looks like something I'd imagine whale cucks put on their whale parts, not bears, you see, they don't swim in the Gulf.

Google is your friend.   We do, but we buy the right stuff.  They obviously bought the wrong stuff.
