I like smittys as well. Feels like stepping back in time inside that building.

Been to Burnt Bean several times. It is incredible. Shockingly the ribs may be a bigger draw than the fatty brisket. Usually I skip ribs in Texas in general. Sides are very good and atmosphere is in an old historic type building downtown that’s pretty cool.

Can you imagine the amount of “my stove don’t work” calls when the cheap skillets don’t heat up on the induction cooktops. Not gonna be happy when they realise they need $75 plus per piece cookware for it to work. Genius idea in low income areas.

re: I've never cooked a ribeye roast before, but I'm going to try it. Will this work?

4 hrs it will be a brick!
Smoke it whole for 30 min on 220
Slice into 2” steaks. Sear the hell out of the outside of them, open hot fire plenty of butter to baste with.
Let rest and slice portions off each steak.

Make your own with a stand mixer. Very easy and tastes incredible. You need heavy cream with like 40% butterfat. You also end up with buttermilk as a by product.

Burnt bean is really good, but it’s only open like Wed-sat and sells out fast. Plan accordingly. I would say Pinkertons as second choice based on your list.

Mini Splits are here to stay and will be the future.
Another problem with the 16 seer and above is many of them are communicating systems with fancy circuit boards that can easily get damaged in a 150 degree attic space. Costly to fix.
R-22 was great because running pressures were much lower than 410-a thus easier on the equipment which in turn made it last longer.

Newordercoffee.com does a fresh roasted(within a week) k cup and they are very good if k cups are you’re brew method.
Drinktrade.com is great for trying small batch coffee roasters from all over the country in subscription format. Highly recommend. I do mostly pour over with hario or kalitta brewer.

I deer hunt 30 min south of there, and back in November I had a dozen of them pop out from behind my feeder and scare the crap out of me. Once they knew Biden was gonna win it was on. BP agents we know said back then it was already triple the number of usual crossers, much less what it is now.
re: First brisket on pellet grill. Help
Posted by HotDogBandit on 9/7/19 at 3:59 pm to creolechef
I do brisquet on Rec etc, your temp is a little high at 250, If cooking too fast drop it down to 200-210, maybe open up that Texas crutch(foil wrap) and let it finish low and slow. I usually pull around 198-200 and then let rest just covered with foil and not wrapped. I like to pick at the fatty bark while it’s still hot and crispy so to me resting it in a cooler tends to steam the meat and mess up the bark to me.

Smittys is legit, that 20’ smoke wall and the fires burning on the floor next to the walkway. Hard to go wrong with Kreutz, smittys, or blacks. Hit all 3 and decide and then top off with Luling city market on ride back to interstate. Fatty brisquet wrapped in white bread is hard to beat.
