Hey Boss, mods, is there an update in the app I might have missed? It's acting quirky for me, like if I hit the drop down arrow it drops down--way down. See? ?

Yep, I'm going to take a stab at resurging my passion. Only 40 starts this year, and that may be ambitious for the space I'm allotted, but compared to the TWO I grew last year? Way. So this year I'm doing the GIP Serrano Magic Powder again. Some of the farmers in Pueblo are growing some limited...

Well, the Camp Chef beat out the Pit Boss by one simple feature: it has a removable ash cup. That's a biggie for a lazy guy like me. https://www.campchef.com/sg-24-wifi-pellet-grill---black-%7C-camp-chef/CC-PG24SGC.html It went together in a little over an hour, heavy as shit. The burn in went...

I've had good grows before, but this Pube is making me wish I'd planted more! I'll try my dammediest to do a glog next season, I'm just giddy as all get out to have such good results from these two. Oh, the one on the left is Rocoto Rojo, and is performing nominally, but not like the Aji Oro...

Oh my!! I've looked, on and off, for local retailers for Leerdammer for 20+ years without success. I was turned on to the brand by a Dutch friend in Amsterdam and was told "It's like the Velveeta of Holland". Being the cheese freak that I am, I finally convinced my to order it online for an...

Egad. No, really... We haven't moved in 12 years. Unbelievable the stuff that accumulates in that amount of time. We sold just about every piece of furniture but the Sleep Number bed and a pub table, all my big-ticket power tools are gone, yet we're overwhelmed with stuff. There's a three yard...

I'm having the hardest time finding 1 & a half ounce plastic shaker bottles for the GIP Memorial Smoked Serrano powder. Everything is 1 ounce, 2 ounce-plus, OR FREAKIN' GLASS. Can anyone please tell me where I'm not looking yet? I'd like to buy them in lots of 25 or 50, for my friends, of...

I promised Boss man a stuffed pepper, and here it be. My recipe for filling changes every time I do this, I just build it till it tastes AMBROSIA. This time: Wild rice, one cup Basmati long grain rice, half cup Ground pork (I doctored a chub of Italian sausage), 1lb Cream of Mushroom, one can...

Nervous, me...   $17.99/lb. Wagyu/Angus crossbred beef. One chance to do it right.   Salt and pepper, a brushin' with olive oil.     I let the grill preheat for 20 minutes, wanted it HAWT...     First good sign, after 5 minutes I got a terrific sear...     Both sides seared, put them on a...

I wasn't planning to do a grow log this year, too much going on and little time to devote, but I've had a real good seedling season, so I thought I'd drop in from time to time to glance around and give you guys n gals something to talk about...   SUPER small list this season, but germ rate was...

I've been interested in doing a memorial grow of the Serrano that our lost friend GIP made his famous smoked Serrano powder with. Parusing through GIP's past glogs today, I think I discovered the variety: https://www.sandiaseed.com/products/serrano-tampiqueno I don't know if Sandia was his...

I got a cell with a freakin' poltergeist living in it.   It started at some point yesterday. Was working fine in the morning, didn't pick it up for a number of hours, and when I did I found that my text, email, several apps of several kinds (including Chrome and Amazon) either partially open...

Trent posted some sad news on his family FB page...I'd been wondering where the man had run off to, I had no idea his pain was so great.   No, he hasn't passed, but what he's dealing with must feel worse at times...   https://www.facebook.com/LawrenceProduce    

My Container Aji Oro, while ultimately giving me almost 20 pods, suffered from a sickly appearance all season, yet functioned otherwise "normally", though not robustly.     I decided to overwinter this plant, hoping the inverted cupping might cease with a trim-back, good rinse, root trim, new...

I was making a red chile sauce for freezing last weekend and found the remnants (about 1/4 lb) of a bag of hot Chimayo powder that someone gifted me a few years back. It came from Lulu's Farm in Brighton CO, and being a pepper I hadn't heard too much about (anything really) on this site, I went...

So... 4 lbs, 2 oz...     Thought I'd be cute and use an Andouille cure. 7 days in the beer fridge     A good cold water rinse, a dusting of fresh ground pepper and 3 more hours with the IPAs     Meathead and others were claiming +/- 2 hours @ 225F to an IT of 150F. This took 4. The coal...

Anyone have experience with this stuff? I read that the stalks would get from 36-60 inches tall, but mine is 8 foot. I did no research, thought it would be a no brainer, but now I hear it needs picked "immature"...My gardening instincts refuse to allow it. We did stir fry last night, orange...

Here I am in the midst of the chokecherry season and my Aji Oros are just not producing. Please PM me with any offers. I'm interested in similar varieties as well, color not an issue bur flavor and heat is.   Thanks    Eric

I'd been on the hunt for a great sesame oil for stir fry and such oriental fare, buying exclusively from local groceries...But the size of the bottles really bugged me, and I couldn't find a robust "toasted" flavor and figured that the sesame sauces I'd purchased over the years, Iron Chef and...

I'll shave my ballsack with a rusty lawnmower blade before I wear a mask. It. Is. Pointless. To me. And the AMA.   That being said, it is the reason I won't go into a Costco and a small number of other retailers making the same unfortunate demand.   So I spent over $400 on an online order last...
