That is quite interesting, Russ.
Are you going to that yuppie store we stopped at for the meat?

Wrong
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.

Today is a 50/50 day weatherwise. Beautiful for half the day and now it's snowing! Dropped 25* in about half an hour.

Like most people who have no real hands on experience in the ways of the world..you tend to overthink things...no offense...just your Poindexter nature.
