    The Devil's Lettuce

    While on vacation with the family a few years ago, I got up early to walk the Kihei beach while everybody slept in. Made it further than I planned when I saw a guy casting a fly line off a break. Walked up, made some small talk about living on the island, how I'd paid for part of my college...

    What's on the smoker today?

    @Addicting inspired me yesterday to put some smoke to our wild turkey thighs. Pulled last year's birds out of the freezer and added them to the mix. Rubbed with chili lime and bbq seasoning made for good smells while getting the lawn cut. Should add a little extra to Hank Shaw's already...

    2024 Turkey Season!

    Close quarters combat this morning. Son was steady on the trigger and kept his cool until after the shooting was over. His bird nearly flopped in the blind with us. Cold and windy, but makes for better memories. Got birds cleaned, ate a quick lunch, then it was off to play his alto sax. Kid...

    Group Pulls Bear Cubs Off Tree to Take Pictures With Them

    "Bear cubs cannot survive on their own, so the refuge center will wait until the cub is a subadult — a range of ages between 4 and 6 years old where bears become independent of their mothers despite not yet being technically mature." Say what?!? Having been within 5 or 6 yards of a mother...

    Tics not Tik Toc

    Treat your clothes with permetherin. We had a wimpy winter in michigan, but second year in a row I've pulled ticks off my dog in January, February, and March...which is nuts. I hate those damn things.

    Got blown today!

    Yeah, maybe try a 'yota?! Those things never blow up, unless you are almost to Fargo on a fall friday night! 😆 At least nobody was gonna drive it away. Connecting rods are supposed to be inside the engine right?? For anybody wondering, you can make it about a mile with no oil in a 4runner...

    Help me plan a family trip to the Tetons -June 2024

    The kids liked the Jenny Lake boat trip/hiking and the gondola ride at Teton Village. I much preferred the ID side vs Jackson Hole. We stayed in Driggs and would do it again. Lots of great hikes in the area. If you find yourself hungry in Driggs, the chimichanga at the Royal Wolf was life...

    First go at brats

    Looks just like my old man's setup, except his has a split door so you can add sawdust to the cast iron on the turkey cooker without letting the heat out of the cabinet. Great way to go!

    First go at brats

    Gotta mix it up a bit for sure. We did 100# one year and I'd been quick freezing them before vac packing....which got real old real fast. Dad and I both said, "screw this, let's just bulk pack some." I can honestly say we ate too many brats that year! Our kids were little and didnt eat much...

    First go at brats

    Awesome!! You can also skip the casings entirely and cook em as patties like a burger. Doesnt have the same snap of a natural casing, but you get more smoke flavor if using charcoal or a pellet pooper. IMHO, bearded butchers have put out enough good content to get the premium they charge for...

    The quiet season

    This is so dumb. This place is turning into California one moronic step at a time.

    Any hog farmers on here?

    No firsthand experience, but a close friend used to raise one or two each year. His wife would nerd out on feed, pig weights, etc. He said after a few years they switched to covered feeders. I guess they kinda had to teach the pigs how to use them, but they fed considerably less food and had...
