As part of my machining lab in college, our ancient professor told us to show up at this other building for the next class, there would be a special guest.
It was his father, 93 years old! That building housed a hand-powered forge, and he took a 3/8" x 4" rod of steel, heated it up, then took it with tongs over to an anvil, and using the tongs and a sledgehammer, he formed a round, oblong ring. He heated another rod, brought it over, then formed another ring through the first one.
That's how they made chains, decades ago! Amazing night, and I'm glad I got to see that in person. Anxious to hear how your class goes, @GATraveller !

We have a proper blacksmiths shop (do more fab work now but always kept the forge going) in our village, been there for ever. None of the younger family members are interested and it's going to close down.

After a day of non-stop phone calls, headed over to the liquor store.
Woodford was on sale, and my bar was almost out of Vodka.
Light the egg, set the vents, and closed it.
Butts are rubbed
Yeah, I know there's some light spots there. I'll add more rub before they go on.They/Them

What a blast! They have classes that I'll continue with this summer.

Making mellow mushroom copy cat pizza dough and trying a new beer. Got a case of stone and it's game night in the cul de sac so it should be a good Saturday.

Figured it'd take 2-3 hours to install these stabilizer bars on the camper....8hours later finally done. After fighting the instructions for a couple hours, threw them in the trash and googled pictures.Slumming it in Aiken, SC.

Adapt and overcome! I have little to no patience for poor instructions.

Been a while so I just placed a brisket order with SRF - all good down-stream.Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win. Life is too short for light/lite beer! Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

Brined pork tenderloin, Dizzy Pig "Bayou-ish" rub, pecan-smoked direct with acorn squash, and a side of Van Camp's finest.
I normally do tenderloins indirect, just plain forgot this time, and the bottom got a little blackened. The "Bayou-ish" rub is actually supposed to be "blackened" so I guess that was okay (I really have my doubts that burned spices, much less herbs, impart any kind of flavor to food).
Also learned my local Home Despot is now carrying Royal Oak, $9.96/bag! All I could get around here was BGE Lump (now north of $30/bag) or Cowboy, which had too much plywood in it when I tried it. Happy!___________"When small men begin to cast big shadows, it means that the sun is about to set."

Oh yeah, I also tried a different lighting method this time (have always used the fiber/paraffin squares). Since the KAB was out anyway, I oiled and wadded a paper towel into the bottom, replaced the KAB/fresh lump, and lit via the bottom vent.
The Egg got to temp, and the smoke went clear, in half the time it normally takes. It's a bit messy, and I normally have plenty of time to wait for the squares, but if I'm ever in a hurry this will be my go-to method.___________"When small men begin to cast big shadows, it means that the sun is about to set."

So I should have pulled the pizza 30 seconds earlier. Did a BBQ chicken pizza with carmelized onion and chèvre. Did the chicken in the sous vide. Overall was good but I need to dial down the heat for this dough.

Everyone has left, and I'm settling down.
Here were the pineapple gems going on.
No finished pics...
A couple buddies brought me this for my 40th, which was actually last weekend, but we were celebrating tonight.
The two blurry ones in the back were the ones that brought it.
And then we headed out.
Wine for the table
I tasted both, went with the Merlot for dinner, really nice wine.
First course, escargot
My first time having escargot, really good, texture similar to mushrooms, seafood similar flavor.
Second course, duck breast.
The chef nailed it, it looks more done in the pic than it was. Ordered medium rare and it was.
Shared a sour cream cheesecake with my better half for dessert.
My rule of thumb when eating out is to order stuff I don't cook at home. It worked this time, everything was spot on, had a great time with a great bunch of friends, many which I've known for 25+ years.They/Them
