I watched a guy bake biscuits in a dutch oven at the campground one time. He had it in charcoal in the fire pit. He used a digital thermometer.

Just butchered my steer last week, Colorado grass hay fed black Angus. I think my daughter took some pics if so i will post them up.

if you need a digital thermometer you may as well stay home and cook in your oven.

I gotta start cooking the mushrooms and onions in the grill like that! I always run back and forth inside and out.

Yup, looks like just enough for the pan of mushrooms and onions. I like big cuts of steak. I laugh at those people that go to fancy restaurants and get a 4oz steak for $34 and say "its about the flavor not the quantity". Yeah, it can be good AND big! lol

Might look for a pan with no handle so it takes up less room. I like cast iron too!

I had a great productive weekend. The rest of my family was gone at the in-laws so I was all to my self

Along with the obligatory honey-do-this list, I got Rusty going again with a rebuilt carb and new gas tank. All the rubber fuel lines were actually vacuum lines with gas seeping through. Got those replaced.
I got the re-built carb on.




It fire right up! While Iwas tuning it, it suddenly started to rattle. I couldn't figure out what was wrong so I shut it down. When I tried to start it again the starter just growled. There's the problem!



Yesterday I drove the Skunk to the parts store and parked right in front of the doors. I set the old starter on the counter and said I want a knew one. The kid at the counter said, "Did this come out of that old Ford outside?" I replied, "I wouldn't have been able to drive it here if it did."
"Oh. Good point." HAHAHA!

I also spent time refreshing Dad's old Tonka truck. There's a lot of play left in that thing for future generations. My brother and I literally played the wheels off.




I got a picture of my 3 favorite rides.



When my family got back we got in on the grilling fun. Steak, pork chops, mushrooms, onions, and potatoes.
