    @RRP is that picture real or photo shopped? 
    I think the shirt was a gift.
    Not a gift, but one I designed and paid to have made. That was the second year after winning the first so I knew others were gunning for me. So just to piss them off I thought it would be funny to give them a bulls eye.  BTW I was the only contestant both years cooking entirely by myself and the only one using a BGE. And yes it was a juried contest. 
    Again, just awesome all around Ron.  
    Having cooked with you several times, I know firsthand, you don't Fock around.  You would cook circles around these clowns.  Funny thing is, I'm not joking here.

    Who are the clowns you purport to be superior to Brandon?  I didn't think you were one to judge.  Am I wrong?
    Come on man.  I think you're smart enough to figure that one out on your own holmes.  

    Not judging, but gathering data over a time span, and being guided to this conclusion.


    Judging bro.  KKK post was not cool.  I'm just sorta smart.  Not genius by a long shot.  Living what I believe is a good life.  Surprised you can't discern comedic interaction from insult.
    Comedic to who, you, and the "gang"?
    I know, Ron isn't laughing.
    I know, I haven't.  
    There may be a few others, not laughing.

    Baffling, how a group here, bullies such a nice guy.  
    KKK wasn't comedic to anyone I know here in the south.  It was in fact repulsive. 
    We all know Ron is a good guy who made a terrible post about prostate cancer. That's irrefutable. That you interpreted the response to Ron's post as acceptable is your failure. There has been bullying on this website, but not here. Either participate here or quit. Personal choice. 

    Are you high?

    His menu in one day is crazy.
    I've had Monkey bread, Clay's Hodags, Georgia Red Wings, Kahlua cake, chili, and there are probably a couple others I missed, with one large egg.  
    Brandon,
    I'm not high and I'm not sure what you mean.  I am sure you posted KKK **** on here inappropriately and that Ron has been hypersensitive.  We are a group of educated friends.  Open to each and everyone of our brothers on this forum.
    PM me if you feel like it.

    Good pics guys. These are relatively recent. I want to see some old stuff.

    @RRP: If memory serves me well, you've had your Egg(s) a long time. Pics?

No it was from the bad smoke Ron it makes the food darker. The day before he posted about never hearing about holding food over 140 for safety. The guy has no clue what he is doing.

    I would explain my analogies, but I just don't have the time, nor interest,  bud.  I'm actually cooking something today. 

    As for the crickets, I have said my piece, no need to gutter a good throwback thread.  But that seems to be the playground mentality of the educated.

    Carry on Chris Rock.  ;)

    2004 oldest in my pbucket.  map is my old stopping grounds, moored my boat on biddeford beach, location (10) stripers and blues fishing,lots of clams in the flats,  bottom of the knife was giant bluefin, macos, whites, blues, baskins. cast a fly to a 20/25 foot baskin shark once before it rubbed its back on the bottom of the boat =) so glad it didnt rip the outboard off the transom.
    no gps then, would go 30 miles out after losing sight of land using a loran and a map and a compass, and if the loran breaks, you find your leathermans under the compass, good guessing works too

    Pretty boring pics from December 2016.  I've been through a few phones since I first got the Egg in February 2009. Was posting pics from my camera to Snapfish and links to the pics from Snapfish to the site back then, way before iPhones.

    YOur kidding right? His ABT post from yesterday he was clearly cooking with dirty smoke still rolling then blamed how dark the bacon was on the rub and apple wood. No it was from the bad smoke Ron it makes the food darker. The day before he posted about never hearing about holding food over 140 for safety. The guy has no clue what he is doing.
    WOW - only 6:45 AM and you are already filled with such hatred and venom toward me!!! I really am sincere when I say I feel so sorry for you! I wish you would seek professional help for your obvious mental condition before it cripples you even more.

    Just so you know - that smoke was AFTER a 40 minute stabilization since I had lit the fire and then SWMBO asked me to run an errand, so I knew I shouldn't put the ABT's on then, but wait till I got back. There was NO bad smoke - that SWEET smoke in the picture was from 3 nice pieces of apple wood.

    As your your attack about the 140º - I clearly was discussing REHEATING already cooked, COLD left over meat.

    Ron that is clearly not clean smoke in your picture you should not have had food in that egg the wood is smoldering to make the white smoke that thick. Oh and remember there are those things called time zones it wasn't 6:45 here. For the 140 thing the OP specifically said hold food at 140 in the post you questioned if you want to go back and read it.

    You are super annoying Ron. You can't ever be wrong. You can't laugh at yourself. You think you are so great that you never once question am I being a douche you go straight to thinking the other person must have emotional issues. The guy posted a funny picture of you in this thread it's funny laugh at yourself but no you cry every time it's posted and try to explain you just won a contest and you are the best. If I wore that I would have it framed on my wall cause yes it's funny. I guess the short answer is you are annoying.

    I would expect nothing less from you Ron. I am truly tormented every day by my horrible life with my beautiful wife and kids. My junk still working just makes every day so much worse I truly wonder how I'm gonna make it from day to day. My life is horrible. Or maybe your just an old miserable man Ron that hasn't been able to get excited in 20 yrs. No it must be me.

    This was really a great post that brother Double put up. Sadly I see it going the way of the Buffalo as soon as he makes his rounds. I hope that I'm wrong, but at this point I would put good money on it.
