• xenforo has sucessfully updated our forum software last night. Howevr, that has returned many templates to stock formats which MAY be missing some previous functionality. It has also fixed some boroken templates Ive taken offline. Reat assured, we are working on getting our templates back to normal, but will take a few days. Im working top down, so best bet is to stick with the default templates as I work thru them.

Went to the Bass Pro Shop yesterday and saw something I had to have. It was only $24.99 and should help me babysit my turkey/fish fryer a little better.
 
When I did the 10 turkeys for Thanksgiving and then the fish fry a few weekends back, I spent more time farking with the fire. I know this is cheatin' a little but if it gives more time to talk to friends and drink more beer instead of babysitting a propane regulator.....I'm all for it.

Greg....I thought you were gonna make some trips to Memphis. You oughta wait til you come down and we'll go get you one. I'm eyeballing a coupla Dutch ovens right now. One to start cooking my baked beans on the Bandera instead of in the oven like I do now. And this other one that's farking HUGE!! It would be awesome for fish fry's and stuff.....they're proud of it though....$70.
 
Still plan on mkaing it down for MIM. Thought I was going to spend more time in Memphis, but we had tons of work laid on us in St. Louis.
 
Right now I'm trying to get on a team as a walkon. If I do, you're gonna have to stop by.
 
looks cool but won't that take all the fun danger out of deep fried turkeys?

Looks like a great accessory -- I'll look for it next time I'm at Bass Pro Shop in Orlando or if it's in the new catalog!

not at all.....set it on high and walk away from it, it'll still be just as dangerous....heheheheheh. Just kidding....I say that because it reminds me of a story that's funny now but not at the time....a coupla years ago we got together with some friends and were going to do chicken wings. We had several different recipes and wanted to try them all out to see what we liked best. About the time the wife and I showed up, he had just lit off the burner and the wife went inside to visit with his wife and he wanted to show me this new dog house he had built. So we grab a coupla beers and stroll to the backyard to look at the dog house.....then the new fence he put up....then the area where he was going to put a pool.....you know how it is. Meanwhile, the burner is doing a fine job heating up the oil. When we got back to it, the temp gauge was pegged past 550, the oil was smoking and dark. Then it flashed and we put the lid on to smother the flames. Even after we had shut off the burner, it would still flash when we took off the lid for about 15 minutes afterwards. It even got the pan so hot that there are permanent impressions in the bottom of the pan from the burner grate.

Looking back now it's funny, but we sat there for an hour or so pondering the "what if's" if we hadn't come back to it when we did.
 
this would also be really cool for doing homebrewing... keep a level temp and such... very nice find... someone add it to the q tools yet? and the gloves for that matter?

dammit I cant add links... who took away my toys!!! GAH!!! I know it was bill
