  1. https://www.npr.org/sections/thetwo-way/2018/05/17/611898421/u-s-births-falls-to-30-year-low-sending-fertility-rate-to-a-record-low This might have something to do with it........ The birthrate fell for nearly every group of women of reproductive age in the U.S. in 2017, reflecting a sharp drop that saw the fewest newborns since 1987, according to a new report by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. There were 3,853,472 births in the U.S. in 2017 — "down 2 percent from 2016 and the lowest number in 30 years," the CDC said. The general fertility rate sank to a record low of 60.2 births per 1,000 women between the ages of 15 and 44 — a 3 percent drop from 2016, the CDC said in its tally of provisional data for the year. The results put the U.S. further away from a viable replacement rate – the standard for a generation being able to replicate its numbers. "The rate has generally been below replacement since 1971," according to the report from CDC's National Center for Health Statistics.
  2. Pics and a review please!! I just sent Ben a shit ton of sauce!
  3. If you get an order for 40 pints together Ill gets some case pricing for you. That will be the price that I use for stores. Then you can pay the actual shipping. That will not be able to be through the store though.
  4. I didn't take it that way. We are exploring bottling gallons, but they are still going to be expensive, relative to the big brands. My ingredients eat me alive (honey, seasonings, real sugars). I also need to bottle 48 gallons of any one flavor.....and that is scary, when I have a home for the pints. It may be next year but we will get to that point eventually if it continues to be popular. I do have some local restaurants using it so maybe we will be doing it sooner then later.
  5. It isn't up 33%. CKF has a promo code for FS members. Pints are still around $7 after the discount and the shipping I am pretty much taking on the chin. Shipping 'up to' 10 bottles will be way more then $14.95.... come on...... I used 1 case to feed 600 people the other day..... that's about $.15 per guest in sauce cost.
  6. Shipping food to Canada is complicated from my understanding. There is certificates and inspections from what I understand...... We looked into if for MOMO but it didn't look like something that was very practical, unless you know of a different way!
  7. Probably right around 8 with me on the cooker. Its a big ass party, and I was so busy I didn't get any good pictures.... bummer. Started at 2AM and had all the food in serving stations by 12:15. Then I cooked for the daughters first bday yesterday.... dragging ass today.
  8. FTR there was no one aboard this train. Runaway....after a fire. Lots of blame to pass around here.
  9. I cooked for our company picnic Saturday: 170 lbs of top round 90 lbs of boneless real ham 90 lbs of real turkey breast 90 lbs of mild Italian sausage 270 hot dogs 12 #10 cans of baked beans 48 lbs of sliced peppers All on my cooker at the same time. It was easily a new record, fed 600 folks.
  10. Man that sucks. I cut over 50 hickory trees off my building lot.....wont burn a stick of it in my smoker. Insane really. I'm spoiled.
  11. Wild for me. Fruiting and flowering give weird smoke.
  12. You wont go back..... That is the only wood I use now. 8 cords a year +/-. Make sure it is dry....very nice mellow smoke.
  13. We've sold over 3,500 bottles locally in 5 weeks.......with out these two. We might be onto something.....but it is really early in the game. I have 6 other stores we are adding in two weeks which will put us up to 30+. My local store has bought 996 bottles (83 cases). I cannot believe we have one store ready to crack 1k..... insane.
  14. Stop being difficult......it's the first steak before the ribeye....... Speaking of which, have any of you guys ever seen a "club" steak? That's when you are at an old school butcher...
  15. Wonder what brand grill ford uses......burners all rusted the fuck out, grates bent to fucking hell, rambling on about how BP killed dolphins in the gulf, half smashed on PBR.......
  16. I'm thinking our site is about ready to go live.....so stay tuned!
  17. Check your email buddy. I need the bottoms cut off.....it would be good to get rid of all the extra stuff on them. These are current and up to date!!
  18. No but I know what you are talking about. Have you???? They look incredible!!!
  19. That's a wrap. Two more weeks for these gurls....
