    If your company is OCD about monitoring then they will be logging this stuff. We used a tool which could monitor everything you did, offline, online, how long you sat idle, keystrokes, screenshots, how long you worked on a specific spreadsheet, etc. If they are that crazy about stuff, then you...

    Month 5 is nothing, if you are monitoring ovulation and doing the do in and around that time, give it 12 months. If nothing after 12 months, go see a doctor. I HIGHLY recommend you both go see doctors at the same time instead of sending one spouse to check and then the other. It will make the...

    Yes I do (see previous posts for pictures of my smoker). What is your budget? What type of meats do you want to smoke and the quantities at once? Do you want something that is set and forget or something that you tend the fire on? Do you want something for smoking meat strictly or do you want...

    Tastes just like fried turkey, use around a cup or so of peanut oil and coat the outside, works great. I love not having to do the massive cleanup as well. Also, if you wait until the end of the holiday season, you can usually pick one up at Lowe's for @ $65.00 like I did.

    So for better back story, these pots/pans are going to be for simply boiling water, my wife frying some eggs in the morning for her (she uses nonstick spray), and maybe some hamburger meat or whatever else she cooks when I am not around. They are mostly for her benefit because she will NOT was...

    If you are going to smoke baby backs, 2-1.5-.5 at the most. I can produce the same flavor profile grilling baby backs as smoking. If you are going to smoke ribs, I highly recommend doing spare ribs.

    I just want to say thank you for all who are sharing on these infertility subjects. It is hard to find people locally to talk about this stuff with. My wife and I are having issues as well and it is a very stressful and emotional time going through all of this.

    Love me some bacon grease in beans. When I need to get a good amount of bacon grease, I will cook bacon on a broiler pan at 425 and flip halfway through cooking. I line the bottom of the pan with foil and I usually get a good amount of grease per package. Oh and I use good thick cut bacon.

    Ya I know they have the plate setter. My Smokey Mountain has a water pan for heat deflection, I still just like to play it safe. There are cooks way better than I that go back and forth on fat cap up or down, flip or no flip, to wrap or not to wrap, find what you like and do it your way. Trial...

    Spare ribs and baby back ribs can handle the 250 no problem. I spritz my ribs when cooking at higher temps and they always turn out great. I mix up some Parkay squeeze, apple juice, and apple cider vinegar, melt the Parkway in the mix, and put in a sprayer bottle. Next time you are cooking...

    Ok the brisket us divided in two sections the point which is the end that looks like a fist and a flat is just about everything about half way down the brisket. A full packer is a whole brisket with all the fat on and usually the markets sell them in 3 ways. Super trimmed; which is a full...
