Chris sent me a note, I am passing it on:

Mickey,
Sorry about the short message day before but didn't want you to think I was ignoring yall or anything. Seems like we are having comm black outs alot lately. I would say atleast once a week. I get off shift in about 3 hours and going to post two threads. One will be the opening of the egg and the second is the two cookings on the grill with steak and pizza. Just a side note had to use flour instead of corn meal for the pizza stone..... Sort of worked sort of not. Had to keep scraping off the burnt flour. lol. But it still did its job. Cooking this friday (hopefully) not sure what though. Planned REAL hamburgers but the cook informed me yesterday night that the meat didn't come in... So maybe chicken breasts or something like that. . . . Maybe some BBQ chicken. Thought about kabobs but don't have the sticks. May improvise those from something. I asked the cook about spaghetti noodles in substitution of the sticks but she said wouldn't be hard enough. Everything else they have come in is pre cooked.. Not exactly good to try to change the taste of pre cooked food. Any suggestions for boneless chicken breasts?

Well just keepoing you up to date on the newest things going on here...

Take Care,
Chris

    Sounds like he needs some fire wires. Bet we could come up with those and ship at a reasonable price. I'm in!

    Thanks for sharing Mickey - interesting to see what Chris has (or does not have) at his disposal. I'll be stocking up for another care package to send his way soon. :)

    E I would like to help. If I sent a check would you be able to use it in filling the basket?

    I've got your email address...when I get everything together I'll let you know. I've added skewers to my list. Think I'll just send bamboo - I think they work fine enough and easy enough to clean :laugh: If you can think of other items, let me know and I'll see what I can do. I wonder about beans - the canned Bush Grillin Beans aren't bad. Flat Rate postage is easy enough- if it fits, it ships. And they discount the large boxes to APO/FPO addresses. Those guys are very deserving of a little surprise every now and then....besides Chris is practically my neighbor - he's from Eufala - he's an Auburn fan, but I forgive him for that. ;)

    Can I make a couple of suggestions?

    Tell Chris to soak the wooden skewers before using or they could burn up.

    And if you could tuck some SEMOLINA in to use instead of flour or cornmeal under the pizzas...the grains are like little ball bearings and the dough just slides off.

    Don't forget to explain exactly why it's there!

    If he makes his own dough he could put some into the dough, it's a good thing, too.
