Hello Forum members and guests. I wish you all a happy and safe holiday. I just thought I would go off topic a little bit and start a thread to discuss one of the things we purchased and regretted or a silly purchase we should have never made in the first place. If you are having trouble narrowing down your eccentricities, feel free to ask your spouse, significant other, kids, or favorite pet to assist. Then, if possible, post something that your smoker/grill would ask for if it were animated and could receive a gift for the holidays. One final ask, if you have a picture of your “worst purchase souvenir”, feel free to post it so we can commiserate together. I will open the confessional with the following:
During a recent visit to Costco I found out my local store is one of 22 in the country that has American Wagyu. As a fairly well traveled individual, I have eaten Wagyu in several regions of Japan but, my patriotic spirit drove me to “Buy American” realizing of course that it is only Angus beef with a little more pampering (kind of like a GMC Sierra vs. Chevy Silverado controversy, sorry Ford, no room at the Inn, lol.) Several hundreds of dollars later I thought to myself, “really, am I that out of contol”.
If my grill could talk, it would say... “Dear Santa, I have been a very good Bull this year and I would like to be taller. My owner is 6’3” and doesn’t like a lot of bending because he is too darned old.”
