    OT: "Road House" remake

    Umm, they already did. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2058673/ The newer version does not lack for action scenes.

    Kansas City hotel canceled

    Tulsa - it was a Choice brand hotel and we received zero help from the hotel. They lied as I took a screenshot of their website listing available rooms for 3x the price I had contracted with them. Kansas City - this was a Marriott property; they've actually been pretty good and found us another...

    Kansas City hotel canceled

    Alternate KC hotel is south of the city. Yeah, those downtown KC prices are gouging fans; supply and demand, I know. I refuse to be subjected to that. Philly hotel is downtown, and good location. Classic Seinfeld episode. I also feel like this meme applies to current situation...

    Kansas City hotel canceled

    Who says lightning can't strike twice in the same place? (Tulsa and Kansas City) (Different city, but same event) Block of hotel rooms canceled "again" a week ago (2 weeks before arrival). The excuse this time is that they overbooked and expected more guests would cancel. Wrong. The sad thing...

    You are correct. Cheese needs some heat to “hold the smoke”. When the temp is about right, the cheese will get a little softer and oily. That def helps to hold the smoke. I set my PID temp to 92 when smoking cheese, and do not let it get over 95. I cut it into about 1 pound blocks and...

    OT: Travel & Food ideas

    I keep entering the special lotteries on PA's fine wine and spirits website with hopes of scoring some Pappy. In this most recent one (November) I received notice that I was one of the lucky entrants who won the right to purchase a bottle of Blanton's Gold Straight special edition at a decent...

    AJ's charges

    Sorry, I do not. I bough the season tickets for the 21/22 season. I'm still getting emails from hawkeyesports :-(

    AJ's charges

    I bought 2 season tickets to Carver just for the PSU dual as it was way cheaper than buying for just the dual. Now that we've been to the last 2 there, I think I'll watch from home this time around. It was fun, but I'm not a huge fan of many of their fans.

    OT: Travel & Food ideas

    Here’s some travel advice. Have your Dr(s). Prepare a travel bag (of assorted prescription meds) to take with you just in case…. We just got back from a long awaited return to Barbados. On day 3 the Mrs. came down with severe nausea, etc. presumably from something she ate or drank (water?)...

    I am in the market for a new grill and am thinking a "smoker grill" would be best for my wants. My research so far is steering me towards a ReqTec. Does anyone have experience with them? Kinda pricey, but am a believer in the general adage you get what you pay for.

    Speaking of barrels... Several years ago a close friend of mine shared some of the "fuel" (aka white lightning) he was making. I used an apple pie recipe I liked, mixed up a batch, and put it in a small oak barrel (charred on the inside) I had received as a gift. I left it in there for 2...

    OT: What is That Delightful Smell? Or, Is Something Burning?

    I usually cut them into 0.75 - 1.0 pound blocks for smoking. I bought a 15 inch double handle cheese knife for cutting them. The first time using it, I was real careful when cutting, but not so much when cleaning. A visit to the ER and 8 stitches to the side of my index finger later, and now...

    OT: What is That Delightful Smell? Or, Is Something Burning?

    I use A-MAZE-N trays, but they also sell tubes. Both use pellets. Due to the size of my smoker, I will sometimes light the pellets at both ends to get double the smoke. I have purchased pellets from multiple places and tried various varieties, but it's honestly pretty tough to tell the...

    Tulsa in 2023, hotels, etc.

    I just checked the hotel’s website and rooms are now listed with a price of $599 per night and then, $799 for Saturday night. Heads are gonna roll. :mad:

    Tulsa in 2023, hotels, etc.

    Hey all. To say I'm angry is an understatement. Thanks for the suggestions, recommendations and condolences. I am a rewards member of this brand, but I rarely stay there, so I'm not very high up the ladder. It is not a Hilton, Marriott or Hyatt brand, where I do have a bit higher status. There...

    Tulsa in 2023, hotels, etc.

    Despite having a confirmation number and email receipt of my reservation, I just received an email from my hotel stating that my reservation was cancelled as "our hotel is booked by a private contracted block". WTH? I booked 9 months ago so I didn't have to worry about not finding one. :mad:
