    Yeah, I wouldn't read too much into my "tone" but you're probably right.  My favorite parts about grilling are much more the being outside drinking a beer overall experience, than the actual needing to see grill marks on my food.  If I was that much of a grilling purist, I'd exclusively use charcoal, which I've never had a desire to do because the upside of the convenience of propane heavily outweighs the upside of what charcoal offers in the way of added flavor, to me.  So, assuming these griddle things can do what it seems they can do, I think I'll get the "experience" part just fine.

    I think what I'm truly having trouble getting my head around is just the no longer being a grill guy.  That sounds really douchey, but I've been a grill guy all my life.  Damn near 40 years of being a grill guy is a hard habit to break.  I would just say why not have both, but A) I really don't see using both if a griddle can do everything a grill can do plus more and B) I really don't want my back yard to look like the parking lot by the entrance of a Home Depot.

    The other thing I'm having trouble getting my head around is abandoning Weber.  I'm loyal to about 2 total brands in life and Weber is one of them.  If Weber made one of these things, I'd probably be all in.

    Even with this flat top, I will always have a grill/smoker. I will never give that up.

  2. Got my 28" Blackstone a couple of weeks ago. Went to Wallyworld and bought a conversion kit for my outdoor gas line. Absolutely love the convenience of this thing, plus I don't have to worry about propane running out. Damn game changer......

    Again stop conflating Donald Trump with politics, Donald Trump is not political as he has no political philosophy beyond self aggrandizement. Mitch McConnell, Ted Cruz, Dan Patrick those guys are all fucksticks but its whatever. Trump is a threat to the very fabric of America and what America is supposed to be. Every check, every rule, every law we thought would protect us from becoming some dictatorship has meant nothing. The system has completely failed because no one ever imagined someone like Trump could be elected president. The sooner people understand that my side vs your side is actually America and the American ideal and the other side is Trump and his ego the sooner we can go about repairing the damage that's been done. This is the largest crisis America has face since the Civil War and there doesn't seem to be a Lincoln waiting around to save us.

    LMFAO

    You seem to be a snowflake who believes everywhere you go you're in the oppressed minority.

    You're also wearing out the notion that Trumpists are actually conservatives. You're GOPs but really just cheerleaders for a particularly obnoxious and malign president whom nobody concerned about government restraint could ever call conservative. 

    But, you're always yukking it up at the ebil libs. You got that going for you. You're a well-trained and compliant snowflake. Please, continue to congratulate yourself as prescribed by those you allow to do your thinking for you.

    And, by all means, continue making yourself argument-proof by condemning intellectuals. Your masters will soon give you a doggie snack while they rob your house.

    Ouch! That hurt.....

    Nice mask, BTW.

    When I first joined this site(other site) a long time ago the cloakroom was pretty conservative. Things changed when that POS was elected. It doesn’t fit our narrative because its corny. Its funny to guys who only enjoy missionary.

    If you think the CR was conservative on the Shag, then you are left of Marx. I just get a kick how you snowflakes can't help yourself when someone posts a funny toon that doesn't jive with your narrative. It's good entertainment....

    I just bought a Pit Boss 820 today.  A buddy of mine has one, and everything he's ever done on it has been delicious.  I don't have the time to be a Surly elite smoke master, but from what I gather it's hard to do better with this level of convenience.  I plan on getting after it next weekend with some pork butt, pork chops, and venison back strap.  There's some model hunting on the docket as well, and wild asparagus is hitting hard up here too.

    The thing I love about my Pit Boss is you can grill with it. Just slide the cover over and now you are grilling over an open flame of what ever wood you desire.

    Slide it back to smoke whatever......

    Buttigieg just announced first endorsements for the Win The Era PAC he started. 

     

    "Cruelty and Division" LOL!!

    Come on, Hank. You actually believe this bullshit? Do you think the previous administration was more inclusive? This country has, and will always be divided.
