Caution Salt Water

[ygmir]

HI,
I make some mean pork ribs, and, bbq leg of lamb.........
Shrimp on the Barby is always a hit.......I even cook my veggies there.......
I have to cook, being a single dad.......and, my 'girth' tells the tale of my skills......or desperation.......

Can you imagine an AATV convention and cook off? drool........

My problem is you are all so far away from here, it'd be a small fortune just to haul my Hustler back east.....dang........

And,
everything is on fire here now, and, it's quite early in the season for so many wildfires, we've had over 1,000 going at once lately, not sure of the total now........

Sounds good rdr...Meinfeld was telling me about the whole vinegar thing. Pretty fascinating to me because my wife is Filipino and they eat just about everything either with coconut vinegar in it, or use it as a dipping sauce...I'm pretty interested in tasting some of this pork. Whole pigs are kinda hard to find around here. Oh yeah, back to the Filipinos...the ultimate party dish there is whole roasted pigs, they stuff the carcass with herbs, then baste with Sprite, butter and vinegar till it's crispy....good stuff for sure.

I'd say the most common BBQ around here is, in this order: beef brisket, steak, and beer can chicken. I have a hook-up for dry-aged beef and have gotten kinda spoiled.

So you cook too, yg?? So what's on the menu in N. Cali??

cool you are welcome anytime robbie

salt Air

I here even the cars/trucks near a ocean rust. Just from the ocean spray vapor in the air.

I agree with Larry, I live next to a salt marsh and just a couple of miles from several tidal rivers. The salt air around here will kill everything and you must constantly be aware of lubing everthing. Most of the places I run my six wheeler have a certain amount of tidal water (salt). This is where I live as this is what I have to deal with, I don't like it but it's either deal with this or go inland about a hundred miles.Everthing on the max that is bare metal has to be lubed and it has to be done often or you pay the price in rust.

I have a question with the water proof grease. I have never bought any because it seems like a scam. Isn't all grease water proof? Anything petroleum based should repel water? Maybe there is something else I'm not thinking of involved but I just thought it was a was of money.

Larry,
I think the waterproof part comes from something in the grease that makes it sticky-er, and, able to stick to wet metal.......a lot of regular greases ,if applied to wet metal, have a hard time sticking without a lot of pressure to expel the water film between said grease and metal part.....

At least, that's the explaination I got........

Hey rdr,

I'll start looking for some Remington gun oil and pick some up....when I go out in the marsh I usually take my Mossberg, then if I have to use it for a crutch or something I would not be upset!

BTW, have you seen that green grease?? It is synthetic and supposed to be waterproof....I have been using that on all axle bearings...I don't have an opinion yet, not enough time with it. Just wondered if you did. I have seen it at Advanced Auto and Pepboys...Also, some day you need to share your thoughts on cooking pork...Me and Meinfeld have been talking about BBQ lately. As you know, us Tx boys like our beef...you and Meinfeld's area pretty much have the title on pork.

no i have not seen the green grease yet. i use a red molly lifumin blend water proof and works good so far , as for pork, what would you like to know . i cook eastern style we have no ketchup in our sauce. we use vinger and red pepper , salt, black pepper , texes pete , and a little natural light beer . our bbq is not red like lexingtion style is .+ we cook the whole hog and not jest sholders or bouston butts , makes a differance . we all so use hickery wood or carcoal . not gas. anything elese jest ask . oh cook it slow , no hotter than 300 deg . robbie

Simple and cheap is definitely good....

[ygmir]

I've been a gun-nut for many years now.......
An old timer told me, and, it has proven true, in my experience anyway.......
Automotive engine oil is the ticket, and, cheap.
It's formulated to do exactly what we want, for guns anyway....
cling to metal surfaces, displace moisture, lubricate, hold up to high heat and pressure, etc, etc.......
I've used it for many years with great results.
Not that any of the "gun oils" didn't work, I just like simple and cheap......
I use multi-grade.

just a random thought.
