    Awesome!!  Congrats to you and the wife.  I guess you can say goodbye to sleep for a year or so.

    Saw this the other day at my butcher and snapped a pic of it. Couldn’t find it on Naked Whiz after a very brief search. I was back at the store again and asked them about it. They started off touting that it was South American lump, blah blah blah. I cut the guy off pretty quickly telling him that I wasn’t interested in contributing to the rampant deforestation in South America. Notice the Georgia State logo on the bag. That’s some low rent deceptive marketing. Buyer beware. 






    I don't know about you, but if it'll break an axe I'm sure as hell not dumping it into my egg. Sounds like a good way to crack your fire bowl!

    The wind just starting getting crazy here a couple hours ago. My son has a high school soccer district championship tonight. I bet they'll see the ball doing some crazy things.

    I’m the neighbor mad at the numerous zoning violations and the constant randoms next door to my home. Fun fact is that Air BNB and VRBO don’t screen for sexual predators. (I have 2 small children)This home is also within 500’ of a public school. City council dragging their feet waiting on a “legal opinion”

    @Botch we rip on people for grammar sometimes on this forum, but your apostrophe game was strong.

    Best of luck. Cities, these days are more interested in the increase of tax sources and not so much about the communities or the people.

    They have fought that battle here using the same defense, and the people in the neighborhoods effected, have yet to win their first case.

    Hope yours has a different outcome.

    Just taking a wild guess here.
    A few years ago Kamado Joe started importing their charcoal in bulk from their source in South America (Argentina) and they do their own bagging at their facility in Georgia. It might be that KJ is also doing some private labeling and the Georgia logo is just meant to convey "Meat Head" is a Georgia company.
    What's printed on the backside of the bag?

    Counties around here have successfully banned them. No rentals less than 30 days. Folks are flipping out because they are over leveraged in their 6 bedroom lake houses that they thought others would pay for a few nights at a time. 

    I feel like Kermit sipping tea watching those folks who now can’t pay for their “investment” property.
