+1 for the spare. First in first out. Once one is empty put it in the most annoying place ever to where I have to step over it until I get it filled

I now have three full tanks on standby, mainly use propane for pizza oven but primary reason is the dual fuel generator for emergency.

Speaking of propane tanks....
I brought my propane tanks in to get refilled the other day and the propane employee told me to remove the company advertisement wraps from them. He said the wrap collects moisture and will cause rust around the propane tanks. He said the tanks will last longer and be easier to recertify for the future. The employee showed me a few examples of rusted out tanks where the people left the company wraps on them. That never even crossed my mind as being an issue. It probably doesn't make much of a difference if you swap/exchange propane tanks but for those who bring them in to get refilled it might be worth removing the company wraps on them.

@WeberWho Learned something new, so it's kind of like the vinyl caps on the nest prongs I guess. Not sure if I want to remove the wrap though, I always thought (could be wrong) the wraps are proof of recertification. All my tanks are kept dry in an enclosed shed so I'll take my chancescanuckland

Made a charcuterie board for the family. I ate my calories in Publix key lime pie frozen yogurt. Has graham cracker crust crumbs mixed in. Almost couldn’t stop. 😞

Typically any need to know details on the tank itself are stickers and the date I think might be engraved on it."The pig is an amazing animal. You feed a pig an apple and it makes bacon. Let's see Michael Phelps do that" - Jim Gaffigan

It has been a long time since I did a cook using a Meater probe that the battery went dead. I usually remove batteries from unused devices but not this time. Now I am told the battery in the probe is not fully charged. Guess I am going to continue old school on this Brisket. 16.375 lbs of prime meat riding at 200 degrees F for now.
It just barely fits in the Large. Started early, hoping to pull it off at 4:30 to let it rest for an hour. Friend Navy Submariner will be flying in Monday morning. Invited my egging neighbor and his wife. Will probably send some of it home with them, if the cook goes as planned. Need to take my best knife to neighbor for sharpening. That is a lot of meat to cut thru.Ubi panis, ibi patria.

While a few posts back, buy two of your initial consumable. Once one goes dark restock and you will always be ready to go.
Initial expense double, but after that, no worries.
Works well with shaving cream, toothpaste...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. -
Damn, power just went out, during a game between two of my favorite teams!
And you all probably won't be able to see this whine. (7:31 pm timestamp).
EDIT: (mebbe not a real edit). Power just came back on, 7:44 pm; that wasn't too bad, won't have to throw anything out.

Just pulled the brisket off the large egg and put it in this container, put the lid on, stuffed the cooler with large towels, and closed it tight.
Had an issue with the meter early in the evening, replaced the battery, and had to restart so the time is not correct. Put the brisket in the egg at 7:00 pm so the cook took four hours longer than the graph shows. Hope the temp will rise to 203 degrees while the brisket restsUbi panis, ibi patria.
