Your guys are gettin' a whipping like Michigan is against Ohio State. That ain't pretty, either.

Painful to listen to..... recording the Michigan game, not much reason to watch it. Have Penn State recording, too.

Charcoal? That was on you....you smoke with wood.. Mesquite is what we use in the Piney woods.

Right, Mick....team that they're playing is a "charter school" (read :last step before prison) that draws from Philadelphia and surrounding area. We draw from a population of less than 20,000. For whatever reason , both teams are in same division. I think their fullback is something like 6' 275 lbs. They have a few Division I players. No excuses...just facts. Normal HS teams don't stand a chance. On top of that, we made a ton of mistakes. down by 31 pts....

Greg, I'm gonna do some more filets today on the grill. I won't be using the "Trailer park wood" otherwise known as mesquite. Only idiots and Yankees who don't know how to cook properly use that **** as it tends to cover up the taste of the meat. It burns really hot and creates a harsh smoke that many folks who enjoy BBQ find objectionable. Those of us who know how to BBQ use hardwoods, pecan or apple to give a distinct taste without overpowering the meat. Wood smoke flavors are developed from the combustion of lignin within the wood, and mesquite has a higher concentration of lignin than most hardwoods. In its chapter on smoked food, the book Modernist Cuisine ranked the common fuel sources for smoke from least to most intense, and mesquite was listed as the strongest. Might as well eat creosote or boil your steak if you are going to use mesquite.

Interesting, Russ. I found this online, do not claim to be a grilling guru and found it informative. I am sure there are parts of Texas where this is not applicable...
