What size egg you got? my Akorn rusted through and is no longer able to smoke. I’d like one but I’d also like to throw a smoker on the back of the camper and head out....egg ain’t makin that tripRib-eye from the BGE, seasoned with Montreal Steak seasoning. Crazy simple, accompanied by green beans, and homemade pesto (from Mrs G.’s basil plants) on Angel hair with my recent favorite bargain cab, the Columbia Crest Horse Heaven Hills. Finishing the bottle as I type this.....
Large. Suits us great. It was a Christmas present and I’m still learning the ins and outs.
I don’t want a plug in smoker. I think this is pretty cool but I can take the Akorn to a tailgate, camping, or on the back porch and not have to worry about plugging it in. and I don’t have to get lump for one cooker and pellets for the other.
Had a hankering for an old style meal like my grandma used to make. Whipped this up for supper this evening...
Peas we put up in June with bacon drippings and a few pods of okra from the garden, homemade mashed potatoes, fried cube steak and some sawmill gravy made from the renderings in the pan. Missus made a pear crisp with pears from the tree in the back yard. I feel like I’m fortified for the upcoming week.
At your age, you’d be better off staying away from fried anything and bacon grease. Don’t think gravy is a healthy option either. Pear crisp? Meh. Never liked pears. But those peas & okra and taters look legit. Nice work.Had a hankering for an old style meal like my grandma used to make. Whipped this up for supper this evening...

It's the thought that counts.We have a truck from Alabama that drives through Lexington with seafood once a month so I stock up. It’s much better than the grocery stores provide around here. I fried large red shrimp and grouper for dinner and then cut up russet potatoes to air fry in the ninja foodi. There were some token steamed veggies but who really cares about those.
There are no photos so maybe it didn’t really happen.
You’re probably right. But I weighed my options and decided on a coronary caused by Southern cooking as opposed to cirrhosis of the liver or a bullet from a jealous husband. All seem like family or regional traditions :)
