No covid discussions in The Pit

As long as we can continue our monthly posts of Plant Based Meats…I’m good! 🥸

Dang Bogy What the hell is wrong with boiling ribs?
😂

I don’t think it is from boiling ribs. It’s my darn dogs. We need to teach them not to look so cute.

[Bogy]

So many things I could say, but I won't, because it wouldn't change anyone's mind anyway. Let's disagree on important things, like whether charcoal, sticks or pellets are the best fuel for cooking. At least we can agree it's a mortal sin to boil ribs, and every time someone does it an angel dies.

It is a good decision. I understand why it pains you to cut the subject off. I have a story that I thought would be safe to share here because I think of you all as friends. However, each time I felt like I wanted to, I saw how much vitriol all subjects related to COVID evoked. What I wanted to share had nothing to do with (in my mind) "to vaccinate or not" or "to mask or not". It would have become that.

I'm glad I'm not the only "horrible" neighbor... can only be helpful so many times before you have to choose between entertainment and babysitting

[ItsAllGoneToTheDogs]

Fair enough, and the right call. Plenty of places to find productive, heated or worse, toxic debate. BBQ like video games is my mental escape from such things.

Of late I stopped playing my online video games because folks have become so toxic with various topics... woulda hated to take a break from here too.

I feel exactly the same way you do, and sadly, I don't think you had any other choice here.

Good decision.

Thank you.

Thanks

[CaptainMike]

Thank you.

I'm in total agreement

[Steve B]

Agreed. There is a place for everything.
This fine forum is not that place.
Let’s keep it about BBQ and our own fun little things that make us happy.
Like watching my neighbor having to jump start his car every couple of weeks because he doesn’t close his, drivers, door when he gets out. 🤷🏼🤦🏼😂
