We have been feasting on crawfish at the local grill store between fishing trips. Chris still refuses to suck the heads but enjoys the meat from those tails. The world of coffee and espresso has me intrigued but not everything is very accessible. The scale company Acaia has made their Pearl S with a talking feature and made a conscious effort to make their Brew app accessible with screen readers. The Lucca A53mini has tactile buttons for easy use but out of most folks price range. And then there are grinders which seem to be moving to the touch screen interface with few exceptions. Finally, we have put the sous vide machine to work since the storms have kept us inside.

ThermoWorks has released a new wireless meat probe and Chris talks about the pros and cons of the RFX vs the Meater 2plus. The ThermoWorks uses radio frequency and wifi to bring a better connection with greater reliability. However, there are a few tricks in the Meater 2plus bluetooth that keeps it in the running for a great option. Several subscribers have reached out and one even shared a story about dropping his iPhone into a burning hot grill.

Cooking a 22lbs brisket in eight hours helped ease the pain of the Chief’s loss and poor performance in the Super Bowl. The Meta Ray Ban glasses still holding up and recording some great point of view videos which we have posted to IG, FB and YT. Finally, Chris answers a question about cast iron and if enamel coated cast iron is worth getting over quality cast iron.
