You've got to ask yourself one question. Do I feel lucky? Well, do ya, punk?
I have not won the lottery yet, or a Gold Medal Giveaway, so I guess I don't feel so lucky. But I have my health and a small portion of my sanity left!
PBC
Weber Smokey Joe, no legs... kettle rusted at the attachment point
An expensive but cheap gas grill (too embarassed to admit brand)
Barely adequate probe type meat therm. (brookstone quality)
Maverick E-732
Guiness Draught (why drink coors lite at 110 calories? Guiness is 124!)
I went to see a movie that they held a raffle at some time ago.... Nice prizes too... Three people showed up, including me... Needless to say, I didn't win. In fact, I don't think I've EVER won a drawing of any kind. But hope springs eternal!

Reason: Typos typos typos
I went to the premier event of the new Star Wars movie with a vendor. They held a drawing for one of the little remote-control BB-8 droids. I think that is the first thing I've ever actually won in a drawing. I wasn't even really paying attention.
I have a charity meat raffle that i'm planning on attending on the 23rd. I think my odds will be better there. mainly Costco items, with the "Big Kahuna" being a large whole angus ribeye... (last one i saw in the store was $185.00). lots of other good items, on down to the six pack of chicken boobs. about 20 items in all, and i have to sit in a bar waiting for each round to occur. Damn the bad luck.
I know the suspense has been killin y'all so without further adooooooo..... specialshake come on down you're the next contestant in the Gold Medal Giveaway! And by contestant I mean you just have to go to the prize page, pick out what you want, and let us know! Congratulations!
Scotch: Current favorite- The Arran (anything by them), Glenmorangie 12yr Lasanta, sherry cask finished. The Balvenie Double Wood, also like Oban 18yr, and The Glenlivet Nadurra (Oloroso sherry cask finished) among others. Neat please.

Hi, my name is Darrell. I'm an OTR truck driver for over 25 years. During my off time I love doing backyard cooks. I have a 48" Lang Deluxe smoker, Rec-Tec pellet smoker,1 Weber Genesis 330, 1 Weber Performer (blue), 2 Weber kettles (1 black and 1 Copper), 1 26" Weber kettle, a WSM, 8 Maverick Redi Chek thermometers, a PartyQ, 2 SnS, Grill Grates, Cast Iron grates, 1 ThermoPop (orange) and 2 ThermoPens (pink and orange) and planning on adding more cooking accessories. Now I have an Anova sous vide, the Dragon blower and 2 Chef alarms from Thermoworks.
Wow! I just found out I won the Gold Medal Giveaway! While its not as awesome as the $1.4 billion powerball jackpot it is still pretty frickin' awesome. Its especially cool because I didn't know I entered. My wife cautioned me that it might be some sort of scam LOL, but I told her I didn't think the Amazing Ribs people would scam me. I would like the JNR4 gas grill. Timely also as my 10 year old weber genesis is in sad shape. Thanks again!
