I have to vent in a "safe" place...
This week I joined one of the many FB BGE groups. While it does get more amateur posts then some, which I like, holy crap the the cooking results are awful! Pizzas that look like they fell out of the box onto the ground, shingle hard brisket slabs claimed as "OMG best ever!" and some of the dry nastiest looking ribs I've seen.
I try to take the old advice from here of just giving them a thumbs up and applauding their enthusiasm. We all started somewhere. ....but I really want to shout "there's no smoke ring on that beef and the meat is so dry you'll need to oil the cutting board when you're done slicing it." But I just scroll on. It's tough in the FB environment to give constructive criticism like that without coming off as a hater.
That's it. Just had to vent.

The stay at home work the past couple months has brought me back to this forum as I've had a little more time to read and post. It's the best. I'm no gourmet. I'm usually making quick prep meals on the egg, but I also know a sh*tty result when I see it.

I absolutely believe this to be the best cooking/drinking/biotching forum with the best folks around.
