    11 and 13. I was a late bloomer.  For a couple of years in my 60s I had a wife in her 40s.

    Math is fun, unless you are a waiter.

    11yo here, going on 30. Says he can drive, if only his longs were longer. I have tried explaining that life is not Mario Kart.

    Kinda Korean flanken style angus ribs with stir fry carrots and peppers to be served over rice.  Ignore the gin and tonic… it has gotten over 100° here which indicates no more neat brown liquid for me for a few months.

    Served with some pickled daikon and hot pepper sauce.

    I gotta get me one or more of those cast iron boats you have the carrots in.   

    Late this August I'm going to cast iron heaven, the Aberfoyle Antique Market in Ontario. Went last year and just loved all the fun CI there. Going to keep an eye out for boats.

    I'd chow down to that @shtgunal3. Did you have to adjust the cook time because the meat loaf was in smaller portions?

    @BeanHead - what dome temp and what is your declare victory cook temp as I hot smoke at around 225-240*F indirect to 135-140*F?  Always looking for a different way to go any cook a go.

    Yes. It/they cook much faster this way. Everyone gets their own this way too. I didn’t really time it but I want to say they were done in roughly 30 minutes at 350.

    @lousubcap I shoot for 225° if it looks like there is a hotspot on the coals I shift the fish a bit to avoid scorching the bottom. The grill mats have been a game changer in regards to overcooking. I know I could use the deflector but that adds a good 10min to the warm up time for my MM setup.

    Just some ribs and turkey legs on a rainy saturday morning. 4,5 hours indirect at 250 F, no foil. Simple but effective raincap in use.
    Last cook for a while as I'll be travelling to the US next week (DC, NC, VA)

    This forum is kind of optimized to make your wallet shrink and your waist expand.  Think of it as the Egghead conservation of mass.

    @zaphod wish I had some of your roasted cauliflower with my curry! I'm curious about the 'butter chicken', did you use the premade KFI butter chicken sauce? That reminds me of something funny... my wife recommended the KFI sauce to a vegetarian coworker who declined with 'but there's chicken in it'  =)

    we got a local powder mix from the farmers market. You add 6T tomato paste, 1.25c water, 1c milk, 1c half and half. mix it all up and cook the chicken in it.

    because we weren't doing chicken we just mixed it all up, but it was looking pretty thin so we skipped the milk. we then soaked the cauliflower in a bowl of it for 90 minutes or so with repeated bastings.

    The company is called "Amazing Foods BC" but I think that it's pretty local to farmers markets.
