Thanks Dave. My brain is overflowing with stuff I have learned and memories. That may be the problem. I still quest for knowledge and more hobbies. So something must go get something new in there. Like clearing some of my hard drive to have enough memory for something else. Did I say hard drive? Ha!

Thanks Randy, Thanks for contributing to the children as a former teacher. As much as this quote is used, they are our future. Writing and telling our experiences I enjoy. It may bore some because I tend to go into detail. Sharing and writing keeps me sharp. When I put things together it digs deep into my pea brain vocabulary and awakens words and their meanings not used often as I speak. Trying to keep sharp. I sometimes now struggle to find words and it is getting worse. Names, word meanings etc. Pat and I will be talking, and I will go blank. Not forgetting what we are talking about but for a word. She will say as I am saying you know what I am trying to say, she can get what I am trying to say right away or get really confused. I may be predisposed to dementia on my material side. Mom and one aunt. Mom long term still plugging along and aunt it progressed really fast, and she just quit eating and passed within a short time.

heck yea, skinned many possums when they were worth money.

Fixed it for you 😁, I buried a bucket of shad in the ground almost a year. Skimmed the oil off top for scent. Used the stuff underneath for bait. Possum catching deal. The fox and coyote would just roll in it and set off the trap. like any canine does with rotten stuff. I had a friend who caught a gray fox by the shoulder with the stuff.

Tis the season for zucchini! Zucchini boats and zucchini blueberry zucchini bread. Both done outside in the trager pellet grill. Too darned hot to fire up the oven inside.

Totally awesome Daryk!

Forums have been quiet?

That is a lightning arrestor. Funny it arrested a blue heron!

Delete and what happened here?🤣

No not at all Daryk. Just start cooking! The More you use it the better it's going to be.

Ha funny! Ours is buried in the pantry. Always save and used for just seasoning cast iron. For baking instead of Crisco type products, we use rendered waterfowl fat. Good luck and enjoy using your cast iron.

Each time I add a layer of oil after bringing the cast Iron slowly up to temp which is Approx 350 to 360 degrees. You are working each layer at that hot temperature. Thin layers and immediately wipe it off and get it right into the oven again. When I say wipe it off, I mean like buff each coating off. The object is micro layers. As many as you want. I go three. Then oven off let it cool down slowly. Each time you use it wipe it clean and I mean clean. Use water if you can so as to loosen the sticky bits. Slowly heat your pan or what you are using on a burner just long enough to dry it completely. There is no excuse to have a sticky oily gooey cooking vessel whatsoever. None, zilch, no way. Same thing for rust. No excuse. Your end goal is a thin carbon layer.

I knew that JD. I was corrected by Pat when I said that. She uses both for cutting corn off the cob.

Be well Old Man. I still need to drive over and meet you.

You are a dandy oneshot.

Outside yes perfect. If I'm going to do a pound or more at a time I do it outside on a cast iron griddle or a giant 12 or 14 inch skillet.

I will get you fixed up in a few JD

In this case the bundt pan is your friend.

I have the answer! Good one John.

Interesting, that does sound good. Maybe cut down on spatter even?
