Darn boneless chops were over done.  Still tasty so I will cut them up tomorrow and use them in something.  Great flavor!

no matter what I always use my temp probe when I'm doing meats...
I like to probe too. :sleazy: :smoking: :mooning: :evil: :rotflmao:

Or an instant read thermometer.   Classic is Thermopen, made in USA, but there are some decent Chinese knock offs

I looked those green mountain units up, very nice. So maybe a dumb question,  if you wanna sear anything is it only directly over the burn pot? Or does the heat fan out more than just a small area for searing?




They are great for cooking anything except a nicely seared steak.  They only get up to 500 degrees and the heat is way below the grates so not good for searing.  I even spent $100 on a set of Grill Grates.  They are an aluminum rack that may absorb heat to help sear.  Didn't do the trick for me.  SO that is where the charcoal or gas grill excel.  I will sell the Grill Grates for 1/2 price if anyone is interested!  Or make an offer.  LOL  SO I have a gas grill, my Daniel Boone and my Smokin' It smoker.  I use them all too.  I also have a cheaper kettle grill but don't use it much anymore.
Not sure which way I'll go, looked at a nice unit the other day but only goes to 500 also. I did find replacement grates for the big  charcoal unit I already have and that's pretty much all that needs replacing... well see .

I have a crude patio behind the garage with a weber kettle, a weber smoky mountain, and a 3 burner  camp chef propane stove. 
I just don't want to have them on the deck.   Wood burns. Guy a couple blocks over burnt his deck and part of house because of weber kettle on deck.

Besides this way mama doesn't have to look at them..

My Weber Performer sits on the pavers on my patio! So there!!!  :tongue: Lamborgers tonite ahead of the stormageddon the weather terrorists hyped all day. Yes it was warm & I worked outside most of the day in it. So what? Made a good excuse to unwind and manufacture some of the finest burgers on the planet in spite of all the methane gas produced. Weber gourmet burger seasoning, Mrs. Gerry's mac salad, some Lays sc&o cheeps, Swiss cheese on the side w/Birdseye mixed veggies. Where's Reb to howl about the green beans when you need him?  :bonk: Mrs. Cheviot wanted me but I told her I think I may have COVID. She may start to catch on soon as this is about the 4th time I've used that one.  :scratch:

No photos, didn't happen. Sorta like when Mrs. Cheviot has her way with me!  :rotflmao:

Ruby was guarding the porch to protect her plants from toads as I grilled. A Smithfield pork loin filet & Morgan's mandarin teriyaki chicken breasts tonite. Birsdeye peas, cheeps, Mrs, Gerry's mac salad and it's supper. Mrs. Cheviot was out like a light. Negated another threat successfully.  :happy1:

No evading this away,  momma was crabby so I did my best of distancing in the garage.  The thick ham steaks just needed a quick warm up while the mrs made squished taters and broccoli salad. She rebounded after dinner but good thing it was mow lawnin night!!

Nothing special, just my favorite chicken quarters. But I did find a great way to make corn on the cob.... Glenn. Seal the corn in a vacuum bag along with butter and sea salt 180 degrees for 35 minutes in the sous vide, and Wow! Cut the bag open and eat. The corn has been bathing in the butter and salt.
