CO passed a law re: rental cars requiring snow equipment and it's the renter's responsibility to make sure the car is equipped. Don't remember the details so one should check if renting. Was just there last week but had personal vehicle that was legal so didn't pay too much attention
Using pizza steel on Big Green Egg
Posted by gungho on 12/2/25 at 7:10 am
Still learning my BGE. Bought pizza steel, tried Neapolitan dough. Preheated steel on BGE to 650 degrees (placed on upper grate, no stone or ConvEGGtor underneath). Dough basically caught fire when placed on steel, 2nd piece of dough still got charred. Suggestions? Maybe ConvEGGtor underneath the answer? Thanks
Given the context, bit of a reach, but I'll give u a point or 2.
Anyone have experience with ultrasonic bat repellent devices? Any recc's on which worked and which didn't? Thanks

I’ve been to Hyderabad for a couple weeks.
No trash on the streets; no offensive smells other than car exhaust.
Great food and friendly people.
I don't know what part of Hyderabad u went to, but when I went about 9 yr ago I went all over the city. About the filthiest place I've been. Typical Indian views- street urination/ defecation. Even though I stayed in one of the Marriotts, the stench from adjacent stream (diarrhea green) when the wind blew a certain way and the nearby lake where people sent their little flaming boats out on the water as part of the grieving process for loved ones were very efficient deterrents to return. Heartbreaking situation. And i have a very close Indian friend who lives there

Anyone travel the North Coast 500 in Scotland? How was your experience? Recommendations? Warnings?

You are mixing tense. "This" is singular but "bars" is plural.
It's not tense- that's for verbs. The error is in number agreement.
re: States with less people than DFW

Yeah, we live in N LA and drive several times a year to CO/UT. We're old and don't like the stress driving thru DFW so the extra 20min it takes us to skirt north is more than worth it. Kinda pretty scenery anyway thru the ranch land there

Help with cookbook name
Posted by gungho on 10/1/25 at 6:22 am
Not too long ago, there was a thread that contained a post about a cookbook from the 60's, not sure if out of print, title something like "Recipes from..." or ""Evenings with...."and the name of the place was a South Louisiana name. Sorry I can't be more specific, but if someone could weigh in with some possibilities, I'm pretty sure i would recognize it. Thanks for any help

I would at least consider this.
I have been here probably 20 times over the years for a men's retreat in the first week of March. They use this time as a warm-up for their season. The staff are incredibly kind, courteous, and helpful. The food is unbeatable. Check it out.

I've done them using half the grill lit and cooking ribs using indirect heat on the unlit burners and also some wood chips in foil packet for smoke. Came out pretty good, advise use thermometer, not so much for meat but for cooking temp
re: Anyone been to Utah for fly fishing and golf?

I think Hobble Creek golf course in Springville is incredible. Has been awhile since i played there but used to be every week. Have seen moose there and bear have been sighted. It is a slice of heaven.

Somebody said it earlier you just missed it. That was the original Georges under the overpass on Perkins. Newspapers on the wall, graffiti on all the tables and dollar bills hanging from the ceiling. When the owner (Smokie) died they closed the place. It's since reopened as Zees Zees which funny enough used to be where Overpass Merchant is now across the street. Anyway, that location of Georges was well known for its burgers but isn't there anymore. Some will argue but the location on Highland (Georges Southside) has burgers that are pretty close to the original and the guy that managed the original location (Tony) runs the one on Highland now.
Thats your answer.
Got it, thanks. I actually did see that but with all the other replies re: just the best burger in BR and being so brief, wasn't sure that was what nicholastiger intended. 'Preciate it.
Guess I wasn't very clear in my original question. Does the descriptor of old newspapers papering the walls and proximity to the overpass spark anyone's memory as to a particular restaurant? Thanks

I have only seen this $6k figure called a"deduction" which seems to me an additional deduction to the standard deduction or itemized, if that applies. But looks like most people are reading it as a tax "credit" which comes off the final tax bill. Which is it?
