Yeah my thoughts exactly. I got them from a friend of mine and they've just been hanging out in my charcoal pile so I use them once in awhile. I do think its worth throwing one or two in just for the smell though. It gives off a great smell for the first 10-15 minutes
So I tried them with fish I was grilling and did notice some of the taste. Of course you're only grilling fish for 15-20 minutes.
I also used them on a big roast I smoked and I swear I got a solid kick of flavor. Just not sure if that was from my dry brine or the briquette
That first paycheck feeling is so nice lol. First of many!
Sounds great! Probably going to knock out a little bit of yard work too. Accomplishing a couple small things let's me enjoy the laziness more lol
Traditionally I've done lump charcoal as the base and then some mesquite wood on top to add some more flavor and a higher heat point.
I do randomly have some basil/oregano briquettes laying around though so I might try that. That's a solid idea
Alright, my plan for the weekend is to do some wood-fired pizza over my charcoal grill and that's about it. Don't think it gets much better than that.
Cutting down the frequency of these a bit, think I'll aim for a few times a week.
Happy Friday!!
This is my first time doing it! So we'll have to see. I'm a social worker not a teacher so awards aren't usually in my wheelhouse.
Oh wow that's pretty cool. I didn't think they did anything to alter their voice live. I wonder what the science behind that is. I saw Luke Combs a couple months ago at a football stadium and was blown away by the fact that he just came out and sang for two hours (he's not really dancing and performing lol). So it's been on my mind for a little bit. And the speaker thing makes a lot of sense as well.
Working on making graduation awards for my kindergarteners today. Highlights include "fantastic friend" and "shining star". Coming up with these names is fun lol
Interesting. Here's a question I've been thinking about. Do most artists lip sync? Or do that thing where they have the track running in their headphone to sing along with?
I have some background as a singer and I can't imagine what it would be like to perform in these huge outdoor venues with very little sound feedback for my voice.
Happy to hear that. Said it yesterday but it'll be interesting to see where everything goes. Fingers crossed there isn't some sort of instance war where everyone starts blocking each other 😂
Congratulations! That's a solid field to be in. There's so much work that only qualified electrician can do (as someone who bought a 120 year old house with some wiring issues).
How long was the apprenticeship?
Oh that's dope, I've always wondered what backstage at a large concert is like. I assume hectic but amazing?
Yeah that's my bad. I meant to respond to the poster below you who was acting like it was a breach of ethics or something.
Mine's a lab. Great pyr and Swiss mt is crazy big lol. How much does that thing shed?
Hey all, figured I'd start doing a free talk thread if people are interested. I had one back on Reddit that I was in and it's fun to just post whatever thoughts your having throughout the day (especially when work is boring).
I'm sure it'll take some time to get going, and if there's no interest I won't spam. Just figured I'd see how it goes!
