Personally I love low and slow but I think i'd want a bit of time on high to crisp out that outside pork belly. It'll probably be a week or so before I try it out so i'll have some time to plan it properly.

Oh man. You're in for a treat. That belly fat is sinfully delicious wrapped up like that.

Chill on the back deck with a couple of pops, serve with freshly picked garden veggies.

We did coleslaw and potato salad. An insane amount of alcohol was consumed. It was nice to be around a bunch of friends again and celebrate.

Yeah, wife's birthday is Monday so i'm bringing my small Kamado to the beach on Sunday. It's either those burgers or a small brisket.

Weekend after i'm thinking the porchetta but in the backyard on the rotisserie. Out here we haven't had as long of spells without visitors but it's wide open now so time to take advantage.

Happy Birthday Mrs. Golfing. Coincidentally mine is next Friday. Rolls nicely into the long weekend this year.

Apparently JB turned down an offer to send Holtby to Seattle saying there are better deals available.

Apparently Francis was holding fast on severe overpayments for taking on declining players with high salaries. Might end up biting him in the ass, unless someone gets desperate? Flyers GM just said he paid way less to send Gostisbehere to Arizona than what Francis wanted with the Kraken.

They wanted him to retain money.

Benning told Holtby's agent today if he can find a deal do so. I think by Tuesday Holtby will be bought out.

Arizona is going to get their asses handed to them in the Central Div.

I think their GM expects that to be the case. He mentioned a rebuild and reset, wants to compile draft picks and build the thing up from scratch. He was dealt a pretty shitty hand, much like Benning when he took over a depleted system, or rather a non existent system.

Benning can’t facilitate a trade himself, he’s gotta turn to the agent? WTF...is he related to Mike Gillis? I doubt Aquilini will let him buyout Holtby after just signing him last summer, what a gross mismanagement of corporate funds that’d be.

Wife and I drove both our vehicles down as far as Twin Falls Idaho today, 97° here, why the f**k is it so hot in Idaho?

Didn't they just come out of a rebuild 2 years ago?

I don’t think Chayka ever did what I’d call a rebuild? Their new GM, Bill Armstrong, was just hired last September so we’ll see what he can do.

It really is an underused accessory. I found a recipe for porchetta, can't wait to try it!.

I did a rotisserie duck on the weekend with potatoes in a pan roasting in the dripping duck fat. Absolutely killer.

Trade off for 3.8m cap space minus cost of a backup.

That's what he meant about being aggressive, he's called all the players agents to make things happen.

That has been a sorry franchise, ever since they moved to Arizona.
Time to relocate them again.
