About halfway through the evening of merriment, the line begins at the Red Maple out back, until I make them go inside and use the bathroom. And those are the wives.
Just kidding of course. We did a total demolish and rebuild of the bathrooms, we are going to use those.Xl bge ,LG bge, two 4' crusher cone fire pits. Weber Genisis gasser and

I'll check it out. I really need to be able to make this though. Last time was so bad I spooked myself. It's been like 3 years lol. I marinated small bits like you have over night and the vinegar ate it to shreds. We had guests over...it was embarrassing. Like eating sand.GATraveller said:

Oh man that sucks. It's one thing to screw up a meal for the family but guests is a gut punch. I made some chicken for my father in law and his wife years ago that had so much smoke it was like eating out of an ashtray. Gave me heartburn for 2 days. Ha!The Cen-Tex Smoker said:

I keep saying I'm going to work on my pastor as well but never enough time - that is unless we get quarantined again.

In the least surprising news since @SGH got new overalls and @nolaegghead picked up another toy for the cave(s) Liverpool have taken the PL title. I’d like to be thrilled for them, but I’m not. A contrarian view, maybe - but the stench of hubris and self-entitlement amongst the wealthiest clubs, encouraged by the media, interferes with my adulation.
In my humble opinion Klopp is an outstanding coach and person - the real story of the last 2 seasons.
The fixture list lurches from peculiar to inconvenient this week. Like that cousin you had to sit next to at family gatherings who smalls funny, the FA Cup is back.
By way of background, it has been super-hot here so short turn arounds with not quite fit players is taking its toll. The big clubs with deep squads will prevail for the rest for the season. Relegation is the only story in town, 4 clubs are fighting (to avoid) two trap-doors. Norwich are sunk already - leaving Watford, West Ham, Bournemouth and Aston Villa in the amphitheatre.
Here goes then;
Today; Villa v Wolves - the home team will fight hard (its a local derby too, but shorn of fans that’s irrelevant), Wolves are just too good. 1-2
FACup; Norwich v Man Utd - Ole needs something this season so will field a decent team, the Canaries are in free fall. Rudimentary 0-3.
Championship; Stoke v Middlesborough - @Eoinmen have been solid for a while but need to find points here to add breathing space. The visitors are lower in the league, 2-1 the Potters.
Sunday; Watford v Southampton - pleasingly the Hornets are in peril. Saints have worked clear of danger and are capable of picking up points here, plus a win brings up the magic 40 points. And I’d love that. 1-2
FACup;
Sheff Utd v Arsenal; the current calamity teams. Neither will want this match. 0-2 but it’s a pyrrhic victory that doesn’t even paper over the fissures at Highbury
Leicester v Chelsea; another oddity - two teams vying closely in the PL, both will rotate players. Away win because Chelsea have a better squad. 0-1
Newcastle v Man City; the visitors have lost out in the title race, currently banned from Europe - subject to appeal, but will want something this season. 0-3 and the Toon won’t really care.
Monday; Palace v Burnley; two goal shy teams will play out a low-thrill and relatively meaningless encounter. 1-0.
Tuesday; Brighton v Man Utd; Ole will want to keep the momentum up to salvage CL qualification. As solid as Brighton have been they won’t have enough to contain the Red Devils. 0-2.
Championship; Wigan v Stoke; a real six pointer as both teams seek to ease fears of the drop. Could a tepid draw to suit both teams be conjured??? 1-1
Wednesday;
Arsenal v Norwich; it’s last rites time as even the hapless Gunners take all three points. 2-0
Bournemouth v Newcastle; desperate hosts snatch 3 points in an awful match and re-ignite the relegation fight 1-0
Everton v Leicester; in other times an interesting match - the Foxes in the hunt for CL will do enough to avoid defeat 1-1
West Ham v Chelsea; can Super-Frank find it within himself to plunge the dagger in to the heart of the Hammers, his alma mater ? He must to secure CL and build credibility as a manager. 1-2.
Thursday;
Sheff Utd v Spurs; weakened hosts and rested visitors looking to climb the table. The fairy-tale is over and Jose’s men ease to three points 0-2.
Man City v Liverpool; just as the move script dictates the new champions take the crown from the deposed. Could well be an ‘exhibition’ match, part of me wants it to go ugly with fights and tantrums ahoy. Plumping for the former 1-1.
Well, what a whopper that was! I apologise that my inner pedant - a completer-finisher, took over my senses and I could not leave anything out.
In more exciting news, first outing of my new Eggspander & half moon plancha later today. I will do my happy dance.
