Looks good!

Hey, I might be mistaken, but from your pic, it looks like your V-pan is upside down??

[FLBentRider]

It looks right to me.
V not ^

[GusRobin]

[DarqMan]

We know where you will be this Week-End.

Sounds mighty good.

[GusRobin]

Oh I forgot - about a dozen ABTs will also be offered to the gods of smoke and heat.

Looking mighty fine!

Seeing this in someone else's pics, all the wires got my attention.  Mine tend to look the same, but when it's your's you tend not to notice.  Seeing all the wires we stick into cookers and meats makes it look like a pateint in critical condition.  Makes me wonder if we have gone too far?  Have we gone over the top pushing technology at basic cookery?   What are we trying to accomplish here?  What would our ancestors think?  What about those oldtimers who started all of this, whose accomplishments we are still trying to emulate?  What would they all think and say if they could see what we have brought to the simple task of cooking meat?  But then I taste what comes from all of this and quickly I regain my senses, realizing I need one more Maverick before the next smoke.  Yes there it is, Amazon.com ...    ;D

They can say what they want. I'll be busy resting doing serious contemplation while I drink my beverage waiting to indulge in some good food.
