Let all of us know! I have been thinking about building a directory list of sorts for some time but it has always been on the back burner (just like everything else!). Time to whip something up. So, if you would be so kind, help your fellow asado lovers out and let us all know [...]

I’ve been performing some back-end work and realized that a FAQ page has been long overdue, maybe even a couple posts for the most frequent, useful questions. Not that I get bombarded with questions on a daily basis but those that I do get tend to relate to the same topics. Much easier to drop [...]

Whew, am I glad that I could finally ditch that horrendous old theme I ruined beyond repair. It was like those cartoons where one of the characters causes a leak in dam, plugs it up, and then another one appears. Except in this case, instead of leaks appearing, if I tried to reposition one thing [...]

New design is finally up! Still have a few tweaks to make but the new theme is good to go for the most part. (Link section included, so if you came here wondering why your link is missing, it’ll be back up shortly.) Some things will take a little longer than others, more for cosmetic [...]

April Fools!!! Yesterday’s post might have weirded out some of you but I’ve been doing a lot of soul searching lately. You know what? I feel great!! I stayed up into the early hours of today discussing with my wife, plus a few phone calls to friends and family, on how to combat the various [...]

Well my plans to update the design of this site and a few other things have been squashed for the past three weeks due to my ISP screwing over all of its customers down here with connection speeds slightly better than what I had with Compuserve back in ’93. So while I’m sitting here flushing money down my crapper because I can’t really work and waiting for the new ISP to connect–already a week late, you’ll just have to put up with my foul mood.

There I was, this past Sunday, in the process of laying out about 5kg of meat when, POW (plus a few clinks), the rack started to list at 30 degrees to port. A bolt that clamped a chain/clamp assembly to the winch appeared loose. After frantic attempts to tighten the bolt, while preventing my arm [...]

First of all, a belated Happy New Year to everyone and many thanks to all who took the time to read through my poor writing and/or offered their comments and opinions throughout these years!

Just popping in to give a heads up to those looking for round wooden plates. Ignacio was nice enough to drop a comment with a link to a Mercado Libre seller. (thanks for that!) http://articulo.mercadolibre.com.ar/MLA-31913740-platos-de-madera-calden-regalo-de-navidad-20-cm-_JM Looking at the description and comments, I take it that the seller will ship to pretty much anywhere. In other [...]
