For whatever it's worth, search results say to just sprinkle the wood chips directly on the burning charcoal before putting the food on. I'll just do both, put the pouch on the opposite side of the grill and also sprinkle a few wood chips directly on the coals. Problem is, if it ends up being...

Now I have questions about smoking with wood chips. In this video he says 2 or 3 times that this is for a gas grill. Does that actually matter? Can I put a smoke pouch on a normal grill? Also, once 10-15 minutes go by and the pouch is smoking...what then? Add the meat to the grill, while...

Remake is for people who loved the Midgar parts of FF7, Rebirth is for people who loved the non-Midgar parts. I knew a lot of people who didn't like Midgar, but I was always a Midgar guy. I wish Remake had expanded on it more. I think Chapter 3 was the only part that actually showed us more of...

Well liberal British men are usually somewhat feminine and generally worry about what everyone else thinks (i.e. they're really into following the "consensus viewpoints") so of course they get along well with liberal American women who so frequently make the same consensus-based judgments. Both...

Plan for tonight's steak: 1. Let it sit out for an hour to get down to room temperature 2. Put salt on it and let it sit for another hour or so <---I am here 3. Get wood set up in the aluminum foil, get the grill ready 4. Brush truffle oil on the steak, no patting dry 5. Throw it on, smoke it...

Wait, DON'T pat steak dry? Just chicken / pork?

That reminds me, I've got spray-on beef tallow. Had good results with that in the pan, haven't tried it with the grill yet. I could try that instead of truffle oil one of these times. Olive oil has proven unneeded because the "special occasion" truffle oil is noticeably better and I just use it...

Sorry to hear that my dude

I don't go for dessert much anymore because of having to watch weight more than I used to. No ice cream and whatnot. One thing I will go for is rice pudding, those can be really good if done right.

That might be the most horrifying idea I've heard in a long time. The idea that post-death, you could be revived in some sort of stasis with no body and unable to do anything. Or getting hit by a car, waking up in the future as a disembodied head, and being a test subject / component in a...

TLDR: Probably nothing important. I complain about women and yet make little effort to broaden the net and get a better sample size / catch decent ones. I'll need to do that, and possibly lower my standards a bit, before I get any more old. One of these days I'll actually visibly start to show...

A shade over 40, but everyone I meet thinks I'm 30ish. Women in the 25-32 range are my wheelhouse. Any older than that and they usually look a lot older than me, plus all they do is ask me what I do for work / money and if I have a house and all that adult expectations bullshit. 25-32 they tend...

My charcoal and wood collection. Is it redundant to have both the Kingsford regular charcoal and the briquets? Are they more or less the same function? What I generally do is go 50/50 in the starter between the wood lump charcoal and either the briquets or the Kingsford. Given I have less of...

So dry them and then brush on olive oil -before- putting them on the grill? I'll try letting it sit for an hour too. I usually take things out of the fridge and let them sit for an hour already, which has helped a lot. Much easier to cook things rare without scorching the outside when the center...

"Vote correctly or the world will catch on fire" isn't even that different from the Middle Ages status quo of "everyone needs to believe in OUR God or else armageddon will happen" Putting aside climate shifts and all that jazz, what we have here at its root is half the people wanting to be left...
