Thanks for the info, Huskee. Ed popped into my head a few weeks ago, and I sent him a PM just to check in. I feared the worst when I never got a reply.

I of course love smoked meats of all kinds, but also like quick cooks like chicken portions, pork tenderloins, steak and fish. Really into cooking of all kinds.

My outdoor kitchen has a Lone Star Grillz Adjustable and it is wonderful. There also is a Pit Boss 5 Burner Ultimate Griddle and a Pit Boss Copperhead pellet grill.

There is an outdoor fire pit that has grilling capability and limited Santa Maria-style grill raising and lowering.

Somehow I missed this. I saw your post about the ham, went back to the recipe and it brought me here. Thanks. Ed was one to always give praise and advice around here.

Rest easy, Professor, you were a steady, warm light here in The Pitmaster Club. It was always a joy to see his wise, friendly face in his avatar.

Thank you Aaron Huskee for taking the time to look up our friend and sharing this with us.
