Split pea and ham soup is good, but not awesome. Sorry WTE, and Merry Christmas.

So my turkey came out fantabulous. I freaked at first because it wouldn't fit in the oven. The oven in this house is ridiculously small. So I put it in my roaster. It doesn't get that nice golden brown but it was so moist and tender. The ham came out good but the smoker sucks ass and I'm sending it back. It's a cheap POS. Mashed potatoes came out amazing - even with an electric beater. homemade Mac n cheese, Stuffing, squash/zucchini mixture, corn on the cob, lil smokies, and I burnt the asparagus. I put it in the oven and the baby was crying so I went to get him and forgot about the asparagus.

This morning I made homemade pecan waffles with my new waffle maker. They were the freakin bomb!!!

Did nobody have these? Lol

When you posted that link the other day, I thought to myself, "that looks like a cheap POS". But I kept my mouth shut since you'd already ordered it. The walls were way too thin, and no way to really seal it good. Temperature control would be nearly impossible.

No, it's just an easy meal. We eat it rather often, easy and healthy.

How it got such great ratings I will never know - there was NO way to control temperature - it "smoked" it fine but it didn't heat it up at all - had to stick it in the oven - thank god for amazon returns

My wife likes if too, but whenever I have white rice I end up hungry two hours later.

I like marinading the chicken breasts in the Carribean Jerk. I grew up eating rice with almost every meal, and we still do eat a lot of rice.


I wonder what Buff mixed in his eggnog?

I bought rum and brandy... Tried it with a little Brandy but didn't really like it. Didn't see any reason to shift away from my wine. But the GF liked it.

PAGS is heartbroken

I wonder if it was coffee flavored brandy. That stuff is gross. My parents used to buy that when I was a kid. Blaaaach!

Beef Wellington, broccoli and baby potatoes tonight.
