but search feature still sucks.


Since it’s hard I found these for you in less than 5 minutes. For future reference don’t use the search feature within Tigerdroppings. Instead do a google search and add Tigerdroppings after your search words such as “handgun recommendations tigerdroppings”. You are welcome.

Oh and don’t keep a gun in your vehicle unless you have a way of locking/securing beyond just locking the vehicle doors. It’s widely considered irresponsible gun ownership and how many thugs easily get their hands on guns.

If you are gonna spend that much I highly recommend checking out a used commercial fryer like what is used in a restaurant. They are easily found for sale on FB market place. I paid $200.00 for mine. Set the temp and forget it. Most come rigged for natural gas but the jets can be converted to propane.

Example:

That does sound like overkill for 15 people. There quite a few electric fryers that hold a little over a gallon of oil that would be perfect for your application and you don’t have to worry about it regulating the oil temperature.
You can pick one up from Walmart or Amazon for 45-60 bucks. I plug mine up on my back porch.

A simple propane pot and basket like posted above works also.


I’m not sure about that. Probably need a separate charger but sure someone more qualified will chime in.

Is it an older 2 stroke motor with no alternator?

For my rig I don’t even have my on board charger connected to my cranking battery. The alternator from my outboard keeps its up with no problem. If there were an extended time maybe several months without using the boat I just connect an external charger to my cranking battery before the trip.

Sorry, this doesn’t answer your question just explaining my setup.

Litimes are awesome batteries but they always have a sale going on. I am no expert but everything I read on the topic indicated that 100 AH are best for trolling motor applications.

That’s clearly dated from a year ago from the thrive plan. The website hasn’t been updated for the plan rolled out today.
Yeah, the money isn’t coming from the library fund for this.

No new tax.

I am guessing the audit the mayor recently called for turned up some funds.

This is a good thing for the officers and the city.
Heading to the Troubador BBQ festival next weekend. Hope to sample some good bbq at the festival but will be looking to try something not BBQ while in town for a few days.

Anyone else going? Restaurant recommendations appreciated.

TIA

Yes most use a cork, not weighted. Your choice of jig head weight depending on depth. I usually use 1/32 for fixing shallow right now.

Another vote for Litime. Mine have been flawless. 100 AH.

I haven’t been since they moved to the bigger location where Sarita’s used to be. Went this week and great as always.

The brussel sprouts appetizer isn’t something you expect to get at a pizza place but man o man what a great dish. Highly recommend.

I’m sure it handles fine but don’t have personal experience with it. The 150 oughta push that boat well. I personally wouldn’t get a t-top on that size boat.
Project Farm on YouTube has a ton of videos comparing various power tools. I have watched a bunch of his videos. Usually Milwaukee finishes is at the top and then Dewalt. I run dewalt just because that’s what I started with years ago and never changed up. But they come with a price. Ryobi is perfect for the average homeowner. They are cheap and have a more versatile product line.

Ive been sitting here wondering why one would need to vacuum seal soup. I either do exactly as you described or put in a containers. Nothing to it.


If you are doing a larger quantity it is certainly a lot easier to toss it in the chamber vac and let it do its job. That is if you have the device, if not then do it your way.

I am curious though, do you own a chamber vac and are doing this anyway? Are you just stating you do this because you don’t own one or is it not necessary to own one?
It works. I usually tie up my corn in a separate bag for soaking because they soak up the spice so quickly. The corn I usually pull out first. Potato’s are fine till everything else comes out.
Yeah they aren’t gonna soak up a whole lot of seasoning. Maybe better to make some type of spiced butter to dip the meat in.
Thank you so much. We were able to get some clip art images online I think will get the job done for what I want.
