I grew up eating Reubens like this one when I lived in Kansas City, except that nasty salad dressing, I miss them . My dad used to bring them home and we would have them for dinner, usually a half of one per person.

Make sure to use houses with crescent shaped holes, these are too small for starlings. Also you need to clean these houses when the martins leave
Around July.

2/3/26 had five woodies in front of the poles I put the boxes on this AM.
Once again the officer panicked and shot a guy for no real reason.

I’m usually on the side of LE but both the recent shootings were unnessary, IMHO.

I’ve had boxes out for over 25 years, some of these pointers are good. The best snake and coon guards I’ve found are made by a co called Duck hut .com. Expensive $39 but they are the best. You abosuly need good guards or you are just feeding snakes. I count shells in the boxes after the hatch to confirm. It doesn’t matter how high you place the box as I have had one successful hatch from an owl box that was up 25 foot. I live on a lake and there are way more hens looking for a box to lay in, so they will use a box when the other hen leaves to eat. I’ve had as many as 15 chicks hatch from one box. I get cedar shavings from tractor supply and put hardware screen below the entrance so the chicks can climb out.
They are designed better than the Browning and made better as well.

re: Smoking Ribs Tips

Posted by BIG Texan on 9/3/25 at 9:09 am to
My advise is to not over cook ribs, I like to cook at 250 , the bones will tell you when they are ready, put a small pan of water in your smoker. Use a spray bottle to mist them when they look dry, appple cider vinegar and water. I don’t wrap because Im using a big green egg.
No need to wrap but if you wrap I would do it after two hours if doing baby backs, cook a hour then unwrap and direct grill them until done. I don’t like fall off the bone ribs but a clean bite. If you are doing St Louis ribs this may take a little longer. Not over done.
Everyone including Paul picked Clemson and were bashing BK. I mean they were really piling on Thursday.

My best dog ever is a 14 year old Pitt, fixed male and he loves People other dogs, some cats. I take him to the store and almost every time I’m in the truck. He loves going. He was with some people who trying to get him to fight so he escaped and showed up here over 10 miles away, he was less than 18 months old. Never had a problem with him in 13/ years.
In 1970 I bought a new 454 Chevelle, Cranberry Red black stripes 4 speed.
$3400 after my trade of a 66 mercury. Wish I still had it. Had to sell it to move to DFW for a job.
