I would suggest that it is a combination of the two. It is the community for sure, however it should be pointed out that John and Austin are a part of that community as well and I would say the biggest part of the community because of their investment and contributions to these forums not to mention that I have gotten the idea that John is either responsible or has a major role in the creation and development of them. Useful information and a community that cares that helps you. Great job to everyone.

My grinder is showing signs that it is about to kick the bucket. John, can you or Austin give an approximate time frame on when you will have your grinders in stock? I have heard other places that grinders should be available again about 9/20/20. Is that your approximate time frame?

Good gracious almighty what a burger!!! Just think you could take the family out order that burger, cut it into quarters and feed the whole family!! It looks and sounds delicious.

Tex_77 that is some really good looking chicken. You can

calldoctoday it is an omelet made out of what ever I can find that sounds good in the refrigerator!!! LOL

I did start curing about 25 pounds of bacon and we made another 25 pounds of breakfast sausage.

Everyone has had delicious meals. I had a fridge omelet with a little filet, bacon, onion, and provolone. I can’t post a picture because I ate it before I got on here!!!

I am in Huntsville. I was born in Mobile, but raised in Huntsville. Yeah the hole fish head soup thing is not my thing either. I had an old friend that I had invited to dinner when my wife’s family was visiting because he wanted to experience the authentic Vietnamese food. My mother in law made fish head soup and my friend trying to make light of the situation took the fish head and played like it was talking to him. It did not go over very well and my in laws were not amused. It was pretty much a disaster and Ronnie was never allowed to dinner again. When you said fish head soup I laughed. Thank you for bringing the memory back and allowing me to share the laugh.

TexLaw I love it when my wife cooks. I am not a fan of fish sauce in everything, and it took me a while to get used to fish in soup, but that was mostly because of how I ate growing up. Growing up in Alabama means a definite southern cuisine, but nothing like the Asian cuisine or Vietnamese that I am getting now.

calldoctoday Include me in that one! It is not hard to learn something new everyday. I learn something new every time I come here so it is great!

calldoctoday that doesn’t mean I have that exactly correct but that is my translation of what she is telling me. LOL

Chef I will help her write it down and post it. I have several things to post, I just need to land long enough to do it!!!

calldoctoday yes there are two other types of rolls that I am aware of. Spring rolls which have no meat in them, and are fried, and then cow rolls which have vegetables and Chinese sausage in them and are not fried but eaten with a peanut sauce. All of them are really good.

My wife is Vietnamese and she cooks the best egg rolls I have ever had

Joe Hell That is one fantastic looking sandwich!! Do you happen to be hiring for the lunch hour a couple of days a week!!!

Jonathon never mind I figured it out once I got on my computer. I don’t need to be posting from my phone apparently my fingers are too fat.

Jonathon can you please delete picture I posted. My phone posted 2 pictures and I do not know how to delete it after it has been posted. The picture of checks should not have been posted. Please and thank you.

Jonathon nope just put lump charcoal in and fired it up. It was just an accomplishment due to a really good friend of mine providing the opportunity to raise the steer that provided the steaks. Sorry I was not trying to come across that way.

Parksider I have and it worked perfectly. I had to go to my moms house and I could monitor my cook from there via the cloud. I am very happy with my MEATER+ thermometer.

How about home raised and butchered filets wrapped in home cured and smoked bacon.
