Evidently an oatmeal hater that identifies as an extremely conditional oatmeal lover…

Happy Saturday ya'll.

Looks like a nice day to tear into the side gate. The wood slats are old and warped so imma going to replace them with polywood if I can find it. I think the hardest part is going to be removing about 20 old bolts holding the slats as they have been painted over and rusted. Might have to grind them off. Then the steel frame which is also painted and chipped needs to be sanded and repainted along with the steel surround attached to the concrete block fence.

Or maybe I'll just have a cigar and think about this some more.

Sprinkle it with some gas or lighter fluid or some other fuel to to it going. Purge it with fire down to the frame while you smoke a cigar.

Am on oatmeal a couple days a week. Quaker Minute Oats better than the whole oats. 1/2 cup of them, and about the same amount of a somewhat healthy apple and cinnamon make for a healthy and semisweet taste.

I dare say, and some may consider this blasphemy, that pork belly burnt ends are better than brisket burnt ends. 😱

This is how I do them:

Buy a pork belly at Sam's or Costco.
Cut it up into 2" cubes.
Dust those cubes with your favorite rub.
Smoke them at 225-250 for 2 hours or so.
Rub with a little BBQ sauce and cook in a covered aluminum pan for an hour.
Remove from pan for another hour on the smoker to crisp up.

Done 🤤

So sad....

I agree with MACS. Pork belly is the 💣

I will take that into consideration while enjoying this cigar. Other factors:
Do I have the proper tools?
Do I have enough time?
Do I have a source for the replacements?
Can the replacements be precut to my specifications?
Should I use a wire brush to clean the rust and chipped areas before repainting?
Should I stop and talk to the neighbor with the big rack when she comes by walking her dog?

Which cigar should I pick for this contemplation?
