Sorry Phil i just had to rub it in,i'm glad your feeling good enough to cook.I grew up in New England so i know how lucky i am. Them 1 1/4"thick New Yorks where out of site.Now maybe i'll get lucky like Biil does and everything will be perfect.

Today I couldn't bitch about the weather, 58 and sunny

Not too shabby for December!

MrSmoker..I'm with you...I have been at work here at Sky Harbor (PHX) for going on 13 hours and 3.5 more to go. On top of it all, I now have a cold, chest congestion, coughing up the green stuff......more fun than humans should be allowed. So much for me cooking anything on the 'dera tomorrow. Have to wait until Tuesday or Wednesday. Gonna try a fatty and a small pork shoulder.

racer_81 · 12-04-2004, 10:24 PM

I hear ya Mary. It's cold here too. We didn't even make to 70 today.

Earlier this week I had to scrape really cold stuff off the OL's windshield.

Bull thats way to many hours at work.(Why so many)?But it's Ok for long /slow smokes and tending a fire.

Beautiful day Saturday on the southwest coast of Michigan, 41* sunny. Worked outside all day no need for a jacket. Cutting wood and tending the pit.

BigBelly · 12-05-2004, 07:44 AM

Waiting to get a day off so I can even think about firing up the Dera.

MrSmoker · 12-05-2004, 04:38 PM

I have three racks of Baby backs ready to eat and half of maple fattie in the bbq beans,the other half vanished some where.

417bullelk · 12-05-2004, 05:13 PM

Now I'm home, in bed, sick, hoping to get better so I can finally cook something. Took they day off af work to get some rest. The Mrs. just took the kiddos to a neighboorhood chili cookoff to see Santa. I told her PLEASE bring some chili back!!

MrSmoker - have to work the long hours to keep things afloat. The wife was laidoff recently and she is just starting to get things going again. She is now in real estate.

I recently came across some fire resistant insulation material that is used to insulate aircraft firewalls. I think I am going to try and make the Bandera a blanket out of it to help hold the heat in the smoke box. I will keep you guys informed.

racer_81 · 12-05-2004, 11:19 PM

Geesh. I had to turn on the A/C. The dewpoint here is 70, we might get down to 68
tonite. Tomorrow's high approaches 80.

It's still December, isn't it?

Amazingly enough, it is 50 degrees here right now. Little drizzle going on, but am not complaining. FANTASTIC temps for 7 at night in December.
