    Thanks man! 
    I rubbed these with Malcolm’s AP then Kosmo dirty bird hot and regular. Let the sweat while getting fire ready. 
     They were 225 for about 1 hour then up to 275 for about another or until there was some pull back on a few bones. Then double wrap with brown sugar, parkay, Kosmo apple habanero and tiger sauce. Maybe 1.25 in wrap. Opened and probed with ThermoPen @205 degrees. Opened up foil and flipped ribs and applied some sweet heat sauce for 15-20 just to warm and set the sauce. Rest 20-30 minutes.
       I can’t lie, magic! Smithfield stl cut from Wally World. I’m really bad at documenting the times. Maybe 3.5 hours total. 

    Thanks again.

    Yeah I hear you but I’ve become hooked on this wrapping business. Nobody lazier than me but I’m hooked. Thank you sir.

    Spent the weekend boxing up everything in the kitchen and starting a little bit of demo myself.  Remodel starts Wednesday.  Lots of Eggin' and dining out for the next month.

    Prepping my eggs for a move and found this (not to bad since it made it at least 8 years). Still plenty of life to, but I guess I should find a local dealer now.

    I am probably the exception here but I didn’t attach mine to a switch. This allows me to turn on and off at each under counter light. I have a low or high setting to choose from. It’s a bit more of an effort to turn them on and off but I like the ability to only turn the ones on I want instead of (switching) all on or off approach. Point is....make a conscious decision that meets your life style and preference.

    We actually went with these.  https://www.snappower.com/  I have several outlets on the wall so these light up at night well.  I also have a "long" hallway upstairs I put a few in.  Really helps at night.

    Well, some woodland creature or the wind (or person) knocked over my clay chiminea's top half, causing the whole thing to topple and crash through my deck's railing, causing damage to that as well.  So I spent a good bit of time this morning cleaning up.  Then something began biting (or stinging) the living bejesus out of my left bicep repeatedly.  Looked fairly tiny for the brief second I saw it prior to squashing, but I'm still in pain.  Last time I felt a jolt like that was when I got careless when returning my stun gun to it's holster.  And I'm cooking beef ribs.  Forgot to mention that.

    Sorry to hear abt you chiminea and bug bite(s). I hope the ribs were good enough to help make up for the pain!

     It is a local move.  I have tried a few dealers in Southern AZ, but haven't found any I like.  I miss Lindy's in Washington and Nena's in Germantown.

    Nailed it.  Honestly, the pool guys are better than the "High End" patio guys.  They all know nothing about the product and just sell it because it is expensive.  They usually have a number of other high end grills too.  Just use the grills to complete their patio image.

    I asked one about a warranty and they told me they had no warranty on Eggs.  What would break they asked me!!

    Yeah, it's too bad. It's a real tragedy when guys like that poach sales from good dealers. The customers are rarely as knowledgeable as guys around here. They don't know the difference unfortunately.

    Brother I just saw that about your wife’s accident. I certainly wish her the very best.  
    Thanks man. Just spoke to the doctor and everything went great. It’s gonna be several months of recovery and physical therapy but everything should go back to normal.

    Stopped by Costco this morning to find out the KJ roadshow was there. Didn't pull the trigger, I was afraid of my wife. They are there until Sunday, so I still have time to make bad decisions.

    Unfortunately we have a neighbor that is moving. One of one's you wished wasn't. He has been insistent that we take his stuff he can't take with him to his condo. I've mentioned he needs to try selling it first but is insistent that we sell whatever we don't want. I've received leaf blowers, bench grinder, dremel tool, multiple angle ladder, tin garage signs (He gave me a route 66 road sign that feels like it could be a real sign. Heavy and I flipped it over and sold at one point for $60) and now a box of tools. I feel guilty as I know he can get good money for them but has no interest in trying to sell it. The ladder alone is probably over a Benjamin and like new condition. I owe him a nice dinner to say the least and have offered to help him move in any way possible. Still not enough though. 

    I ended up with this tool in the box of tools he brought over. I'm sure it's an obvious answer but not sure what it is on top of my head. A wrench for some type of gearing?

    @Battleborn As you well know, easier to beg forgiveness than ask permission.  Go forth and do great things.
