I've bought used, and I've bought new. The things I bought used were things you can really hit a home run on used (old Fender amps, slightly used boutique tweed amps). I bought a used Telecaster in the late 90s that still is my #1, even with two new AV telecasters (52 and 64), both of which are great guitars. Bought a 1970 ES335 used in 1996. That was a good call. Have some other used guitars and a PRS HBII 10 top I bought new in 1999. Lots of used and new pedals. Really just depends what's available when I start looking since I'm not tremendously patient.

AND AWAY WE GO!!!!
I know someone upthread told your ass to book those spots early and often. But no matter. That's the fun for the rest of us. We're watching our boy on the road become a man!
Safe travels! Have fun!

I lit up the PBC for the first time in over a year. 2 split chickens and two racks of ribs, sausage, corn, and I threw a frozen pizza on there with the rebar removed just to see.
Ribs stayed on a bit long, with this British smile of bones as the result, but they will be delicious.
I'll try to snap a shot of the chicken later. That really is the party piece for this thing.

Cajun Bandit door just arrived. Got it installed. It seems to fit OK, I guess I'll find out next time I start a fire.
It looks like it isn't a perfect fit when you look at it, but it does not leak.

Stephen F. Austin owned slaves and the name “Texas” is a supremely ironic example of cultural appropriation (hey, “friends,” mind if we drive you from your land?).
We should probably burn the whole University to the ground and start over.
Let's start with the agricultural branch.

@Wulaw Horn I'm really anxious for you to get on the road and hate to be a sort of downer but have you considered the Covid19 issue since it is apparently flaring up again in Texas. Not sure about Arkansas. How would this work if you are in tim buck two and someone gets ill?
I asked precisely this upthread. He responded, in not so few words, that he's not afraid.

My son was looking at Hexclad pans. I've never heard of them but they seem to me to be like All Clad.
Probably a bit overpriced, but pretty high quality and should last a lifetime.
No copper in my kitchen. For reasonably priced tri-ply stainless, also look at Cuisinart Multiclad Pro. I've got the more expensive made in France (vs. China) version and it's excellent, easy on the eyes, and way cheaper than All Clad.
But stainless isn't necessarily nonstick either.

Just gonna buy a new pan. Non copper

Copper is a pain in the ass. I can see an expert wanting some copper pots for sauces because there is no more precise a piece of cookware when it comes to temperature control. But for most of us, it's just a delicate pain in the ass to keep in good condition and looking pretty. The real stuff is lined with tin and is easily scratched. It's going to stick unless you are a wizard with controlling temperature, and even then it probably will stick. If you're rough on it, it will need to be re-tined sooner or later.

Someone had a bad morning. Yikes.
Should have deployed the pontoons earlier, or he should have spent the extra $$$$ for the retractable pontoons.

I just soak some dodo down in Romanee Conti stuff those in a castor sac (North American only, preferably West of the Rockies) then light it off with some pre-embargo Cuban tobacco leafs. Is that not how you light a charcoal chimney?
There's a distinct possibility.

So down from 4 to 3 cotton balls with a sprinkle of 91% isopropyl. Worked perfectly with a flame within a few inches of the cotton. Will try 2 next time. Oil works. So does Pam (or is is Pamb)? Anyway, paper leaves a mess.

Did anyone hear they cancelled the Houston Rodeo?

I think I'm gonna lock this thread and start a new one for the 2nd wave discussion.
Should we cut this thread up into many other threads for the archive or should we leave it as one big whole shitshow for posterity's sake?
One shitshow, please.

How was anyone having trouble with starting a chimney? I've used the cotton ball alcohol starter for years on lump charcoal in kamados, but nearly anything works for briquettes in a chimney, they're so easy.
Works, yes. Works instantly? You should have posted about it a while ago. Because I've learned a shitload from this site, but not that. Just impatience that has been resolved by this little trick..

That’s why larger orifices are used for NG.When I used to brew, and switched to NG, I ran a straight 3/4" pipe to the stand and only reduced to 1/2" fo the burner because that's what it had. The more volume, the better for NG. But it's still cheap as hell. And brewing requires a pretty large amount of BTU without any retention as compared to a cast iron griddle.

Not even in a pinch. It’s my only method now. Clean, simple, cheap. PerfectMe, too. Just trying to appeal to people with half a pack of tumbleweeds left.

Forgot to take pictures of the raw meat. Will probably forget the end product. But the beer is flowing and I got some nice looking strips on the grill.

Leave it to an aggy to think repeating the Tuskeegee Study with their football players would seem like a good idea.
The people of Texas deserve better than Texas A&M.
Surprisingly, some of the responses are somewhat sensible. The comment about infecting them with the clap before playing Tech was pretty funny, too.

I use those tumbleweed starters and they work great.In a pinch (or instead), 4 cotton balls and rubbing alcohol is light it and walk away with no mess, no anything imparted. I somehow only heard about this a week or so ago and am amazed it doesn't seem to get more press on as many bbq boards as I've read. Cheap and easy.

For lack of a better place to put this.
How am I just not finding out that the best, cheapest way to get a chimney of charcoal started is four cotton balls with a little rubbing alcohol on them. No mess. Gets going first time and fast. Game changing.

Also, for team cottonball/iso, 2 cottonballs and some alcohol was plenty. Might as well try one at this point.
