    Well, this wasn't a bad find last night.  This was the smallest pack they had, and there were probably 8 packs.  Not my regular HEB, but I think it may be from now on.
    Great eats coming your way.

    Had some fun playing in the hearth - getting to know it - learning how to get along. I made some clay pot rice. I added some sauted mushrooms. Cooked some chicken tenders. It's fun to play with fire.

    That is from the Dogwood tree I had to bring down in my front yard. Anybody know how it works for smoking wood? Smells a little sweet.

    Love that hearth @SciAggie and that vertical rack is pretty cool.  Are you thinking about adding a rotisserie or vertical rotisserie there?  Mmm, gyros and pastor.

    Yes, I just have to work it out. The first cool spell I want to hang a leg of lamb by a string and roast it vertically.

    It was great.  Had the kids over, they demolished quite a bit of it and my wife made some beans in the instant pot with a ton of hatch chilis that were really good.  I have a few lbs left that I'll either chop or freeze.  Funny enough, after rock solid overnight temps, the fire snuffed on me during the day - took forever to get it back and manage it.  My fault, cleaning up ahead of the storm I just dumped what was left in a bag of lump in the egg rather than put the bag up and it was waaay overfilled..  Never cleaned it out and it eventually clogged.  Never had that happen in the XL before, oh well.

    Thanks.  Wind and rain, repeat. We're closing in on 8" here and lost a fence section last night to the wind, but it's not bad, it's an old fence and I'm sure it's a little soft.  We're on a slope and on the west side of town, not as at risk as others.

    @YukonRon, thanks for asking!  Flavor was amazing but the bark lost most of its texture and a piece stuck to the BP.  Point was (leftovers still are) absolutely amazing - SRF really made a difference there and in the moistness of the flat.  I failed on the sliced pictures as we were plating for 8 (and I had a little bit of wine onboard...) but here's just before slicing.

    Looks amazing. Congrats on the cook. It is hard to beat SRF. I made chili with the left overs, it was awesome.

    @da87 - Way to go.  Definitely captured the moisture.  Surprised at the bark if you avoided the carryover cooking when coming off the BGE.
    How long did you FTC and what method process did you use?  (From a prior pic looks like the SRF cooler was the vessel of choice.)  
    BTW, I can appreciate the slightly over-served feeling.

    Took the youngest (7) shopping for new shoes for school.  Went to two stores, tried on about seven different kinds - nope!  She hates them all.  FML.
