Man some of my best smokin' friends are AWOL and I'm not sure what TF. I know Bradley has SUCKEDrecently on their forum stuff but where are my friends. Lets just see who is monitoring. Just smoked a turkey breast with hickory for samiches. I let it sit a day in the fridge wrapped and man oh man is it bueno.

Some say BBQ is in your blood, if thats true my blood must be BBQ sauce.

Hey BigSmoker, I am doing a turkey breast tomorrow, what internal temp did you go to, to make it so bueno? did you season it with something special?

Big Smoker,
I'm all in with the turkey. I'm going to make some turkey jerky next. I have a new recipe from Owrstich and I've had really good luck with a teriyaki recipe that Smokehouse Rob shared. This time I'm going to use a new seasoning from High Mountain, the Mandarin Teriyaki jerky seasoning. I will post pics and results Monday night on this thread.

As far as AWOL members, I've noticed the same thing. In fact, I have a picture of one in case anyone has seen him lately.

Please notify the Administator of this site if you see him!!!

Well I wrote to JJC and he replied back on the 20th. He has just been hammered between work and health issue with his mother. Plus she does not have a net connection. He said as soon as he could he would get back on the forums....

If you look at the Members list most that were posting last year are still posting this year. However, with all of the problems with these boards the posting have become diluted.

Now the Data Base for this board is still broken. However, it looks like in the past 10 days we have been moved to a new hosting server/ hosting service.

Nevertheless, it is a pain to wait 30 seconds or so for a reply to be posted. Hopefully this so will be fixed and then more folks will reply to a thread.

EDIT: It took right at 70 seconds for this reply to post.

Hi All,

Like Olds said, I've been busy helping my sister take care of my mother (who is ill) and my dad (who is a psychological mess because of my mother's illness). I go down to DC on weekends to spell her so she can go back to NC and see her husband. Mom looks like she's turned the corner on this particular crisis, so this is my first weekend at home in about a month.

Hope to be on the Forum more regularly . . . and thanks to those of you who checked in--I really appreciate it!

Jaeger call 911, the Administator... He is spotted just ahead of my post or at least someone who looks like him.

Hi Bill,

How about a recent pic of your now semi-svelte physique--maybe a before and after composite? You're an inspiration, my friend!
