Holy crap. You sound like man thread president material! Anybody who drinks beer and smokes chicken has all the qualifications you need. We should have an election. Wait, screw the election! We make our own rules. You're new president. But if a guy named LeMan comes by and disputes your title, don't tell him it was my idea.

Turkey hunting does sound like fun. Except for salmon, I've never killed anything bigger than a mouse, but if I did it would be a turkey. They are scary ugly.

I ended up heading back o camp because the turkey's messed up my morning. Too bad it was turkey season at the time.

Those turkeys didn't bother anything, you should have stayed in your deer stand. Watch them, they'll let you know when something is in the area. They have many times better eye sight than you do and can spot even the tiniest movement long before you even know something is there.

Also, their presence will make the deer more comfortable and hopefully make them think there isn't a predator around.

I never thought about that They were making so much noise that I didn't think the deer would come around. Lesson learned!



As far as being President... I don't know about that. You can't be Southern and not know how to BBQ LOL

One of these days I plan on making a trip up to Alaska for some salmon fishing!

Good Lord are you serious? I started moose hunting when I was 8! You live in the sportsman's paradise and you've only been salmon fishing? What about halibut, ducks, moose, caribou, bear, anything?

I smoked some sausages a couple of weeks ago. Poked them on sticks, smoked them, then froze them. I always have a few in the fridge. Just wrap in a paper towel and nuke it. Handy manly snack on a stick.

This weekend, I'll be mowing. But after that, we might

If I can ever get my Mustang finished a motorcycle is next on my list. Going fast costs waaaay to much money HAHA

Do mosquitoes count? I've killed several hundred thousand of those. Thinking about mounting some of the bigger ones.

Nah, I grew up in a lousy hunter family. I did the NRA course and went out ever year in my youth. And not one of us got a deer. I think I lost interest. Plus, up here there are always good hunters willing to share their meat.

Sweet. C'mon up. We'll go fishin' and you can teach me how to barbecue. I turn everything (except salmon) into charcoal.

Charcoal grill and indirect heat. It takes a little while longer but they don't burn.

[MrYorkiecrazy]

I'll take a stab at this, but I will admit it's without any experience with ribs.

I used to try and cook EVERYTHING the same way I cook T-bone and hamburger... over a VERY hot fire for quick searing/cooking.

I'm thinking ribs should be cooked slowly over a low/medium hot fire?

EDIT -
Oops, not posted fast enough, but it WAS a good guess, right?

[MrYorkiecrazy]

One of these days, I'm going to get a fancy side burning cast iron grill.

QUESTION - What is the proper and guaranteed method to seasoning one of those grills???
