I’m a fan of Hattie B’s. Last time I was in Nashville someone talked me out of Hattie B’s and into Princes. Princes can get hotter than Hattie B’s, but Hattie B’s is a better flavor. In fact I’d say Big Shakes is better than Prince’s. If you are just going for the hottest chicken go to Prin...
My favorites are the ones with extra celery salt: Swamp Fire Cajunland Zats Pro boil …in that order. I’ve had a pack of chack bay for years that I don’t know what to do with. I see most of you are combining it with other seasonings. Does it lack salt? ...

The second book was still good. I read the first book 3 times. Watched the movie twice, and read the second book once. It’s been a few years now but I remember the second book get a little woke. If you are dying for another round of RP1, you’ll enjoy the second book just fine. If you are looking...
I would agree that SLS will be the last cost plus contract that NASA ever awards for large space vehicles. They will move to fixed price contracts like they used for Falcon 9 development etc. But having said that, NASA has always been all in on private companies hauling the mail. :lol: Everythi...
The per launch cost numbers for Starship assume something like 140 launches per year which amortizes their manpower cost across those launches. That's a cost of about 2B per year which is more than what we spend on SLS. I'm not saying SLS is cheap but you are comparing apples to televisions. Pl...

With the way these online mattress companies work with free delivery, and 100 night trials with free pickup this really isn’t an issue anymore. Just try a bunch out until you like one. Me and my wife tried 4 and then eventually picked the first one (a purple 4, I think they’ve renamed them tho)....

[quote]Depends on temperature If you are cooking at the limits of a home oven of 550, use a steel. Let the steel heat up with the oven and give it time to get fully heated before you put a pizza in. The reason is the steel is more effective at heat transfer and will crisp up and cook your crust b...

A homemade dough is not a must, but you've got to have access to good store made dough. Whole foods sells their dough and is my favorite by far. Trader Joe's dough is edible and is my fall back. I've heard Aldi's dough is great, but I'll never know because I hate Aldi. I've had Publix dough an...

A pellet smoker and a webber kettle are two different animals. Sure you can smoke on a webber, and you can grill/sear on a pellet smoker, but that's not where either shine. Get a pellet smoker for long cooks. Keep the Webber. (Recteq and Webber kettle owner)...
