    Saw the Bean in Chicago, the Museum, the aquarium, and of course Pizza.
    But a lot of California non-sense pizza.

    I have had very good PIZZA in Chicago, maybe the best IMHO.
    In the news lately, Portland OR was listed as the #1 for the pizza.
    Go figure.

    Damn, I wouldn’t have driven up to the North Shore if I’d known you were coming to the Western Burbs.

    (I'm enjoying some Sweet Cognac on some breaded chicken right now. It is the best sauce for that, without question.)

Is This Superb Charcoal Grill A Kamado Killer?


The PK-360, with 360 square inches of cooking space, this rust free, cast aluminum charcoal grill is durable and easy to use. Four-way venting means it’s easy to set up for two zone cooking with more control than single vent Kamado grills. It is beautifully designed, completely portable, and much easier to set up for 2-zone cooking than any round kamado.

Our Favorite Backyard Smoker

The amazing Karubecue is the most innovative smoker in the world. The quality of meat from this machine is astonishing. At its crux is a patented firebox that burns logs above the cooking chamber and sucks heat and extremely clean blue smoke into the thermostat controlled oven. It is our favorite smoker, period.

Blackstone Rangetop Combo: Griddle And Deep Fryer In One


The flat top does the burgers and the fryer does the fries. Use the griddle for bacon, eggs, grilled cheese, and so much more. And why deep fry indoors when you can avoid the smell and mess by doing it outside!
