    Anybody got experience with Electric UTV's??

    Looking at getting an electric UTV like a bad boy buggy or something similar, but have absolutely no experience running such a beast. Looking for the Good, the Bad, and the Ugly for these things. Any info is appreciated as Youtube and google are no substitute for good ole ND experience and...

    Smoked 286 lbs of pork this weekend. It's NOT icky!!

    Sorry about that last post fellas. It's a bit more harsh sounding than I meant. I went and shared a couple yesterday with the neighbor and then made the mistake of posting on NDA. What I meant to say is that I don't feel I'm talented at all. I've screwed up more meat in the smoker than a...

    Oh Horseshit!! Talent my azz. I've just screwed up enough to know better. Speaking of screwing up. Come to think of it, I wouldn't be averse to sharing a drink or three with you sometime in the near future and screw up a little with good company. Does my heart good to know I'm not the only...

    Smoked 286 lbs of pork this weekend. It's NOT icky!!

    Most of the time you have to special order one or find the hog farmer to sell you one. Then you have to slaughter and prepare it yourself. I just so happen to know a guy with smaller hogs (120ish lbs) on the hoof. If anyone would like one for smoking, I can put you in touch with him...

    Smoked 286 lbs of pork this weekend. It's NOT icky!!

    For cold smoke the heat source can be just about anything as you're not really cooking the meat or cheese or whatever. Wood is your huckleberry for cold smoking, hands down, all day long. For hot smoking, propane is the most stable heating. Wood is good if you're using just coals, but if you...

    What a mess they have going on just across our northern border.

    I understand his anger, but I don't think those orange vest wearers give a shrite and THAT'S the real problem. I suspect that this type of behavior from this organization isn't a rare thing. And the erosion of confidence in Law Enforcement as well as their handlers goes merrily along. Sad!

    Smoked 286 lbs of pork this weekend. It's NOT icky!!

    I did 3 of those last year and they turned out FANTASTIC!! The downside is the 2 days it takes to get one done. You're welcome to come out and use the smoker if you want to give it a whirl yourself. Just keep in mind the 2 day thing. One to prep and let the rub soak in and one to smoke. It...

    The games that WE play...

    I play "How much money can I spend without my wife noticing." and "What are the chances my wife noticed how much I drank tonight." Each game is a fantastic balance of nervous anticipation, excitement, and the possibility of extreme real world consequences for loosing. Just so you know, my wife...

    Smoked 286 lbs of pork this weekend. It's NOT icky!!

    Homemade 4X8X8 box with a gable roof and a shelf in the middle. It will hold 250 lbs of hanging sausage at a whack. Using the shelf, it will only hold around 180 lbs. It's a fun and useful little toy I can tell you that.

    Smoked 286 lbs of pork this weekend. It's NOT icky!!

    The guy with the hogs is using it as "Thank You's" for those that helped him throughout the year. I work cheap (meaning for beer and part of the finished product) and am fair to middlin with my smoker so he's asked me to make it a bit more "special" for his folks.

    Smoked 286 lbs of pork this weekend. It's NOT icky!!

    3 down and got 7 or 8 more hogs on the hoof that are in line for the smoker this winter. One biggun that's 450+ and 6 or 7 littleins around 140 right now. If'n I smoke all of'em, I figure I'll have put 1500 lbs of pork through the smoker by spring.

    Smoked 286 lbs of pork this weekend. It's NOT icky!!

    Decided to do something a bit wacky this weekend and it turned out AWESOME!!! Gained a couple dozen pounds "sampling" the finished product. Just thought I'd share a few photos. Try not to drool on your keyboards. (Grin) Oh and this is NOT all the meat. Just a sampling......

    The games that kids play

    My personal favorite game for the youngsters was "Find the Socks". How it works is, first you wash all your socks the day before the kiddos arrive and keep them in the basket. Then you dump the socks out on the floor and tell the kiddos, whomever finds and folds the most pairs of socks in 3...

    Getting Old Sucks

    Getting old has been my "go to" excuse for a while now, but in reality, it's just me being out of shape and lazy. When I shovel snow and have the aches and pains, it's not "I need to get my fat azz off the couch more!" it's "Man I hate getting old!" Why is it always easier to blame something...

    One man ice house or small two man

    TWO MAN!!! ALL DAY LONG!!! Just take a tape measure with you to the sporting goods store and measure the amount of space you have inside a one man flip over. Then measure the footprints of the heater, depth finder, and anything else you will have at your feet including the actual holes...

    Blizzard?? What Blizzard??

    You should have to sleep with lycans avatar as punishment for a comment like that. A three day blizzard means NO ICE FISHING as the lakes will be blown in and the ice will be crappy. You atta know better than to poke old man winter this early in his reign.

    Bigger idiot, lunker or eyexer?

    You and I could sit and drink ALL DAY and not exhaust the names we could call one another. I'd just rather drink and skip the other part. (Grin) As far as shoveling.....NOPE!! We have this thing called wind and it takes special delight in finding snow trails, open spots, and other spots with...
