Well who's hoarding all the darn biscuits? I've been to four stores this week looking for canned biscuits. Everybody is OUT! What's up with that?

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

Same problem here in Iowa. Wife wanted to make Monkey Bread for breakfast last Saturday morning. No biscuits to be found....:(

I just went to the grocery store, no milk. I can't buy a cow because I don't have a barn any more.... Double...:(..:( ... & a :m6:

I had a set similar to that on my 86 Mustang GT. I wanted to get the covers for them but none were to be found at Pick A Part. The Mustang's were always picked clean. Then I realized that the Lincoln Mark VII had the same lights. All the Mustang guys had missed them. I must have bought 10 sets for under 10 bucks a set. I put them on Ebay and got about $100 a pair. Not a bad deal until someone else figured it out too. Then they were gone too.

Glued in the headliner of the mustang today. Windshields hopefully can go in next weekend.

Made an Adze . Used an old leaf spring for the blade and just some rod for the handle. Which I’m not happy with its to small so I’ll be making a new one but it works well .

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

Nice work. I have those tools, adze, froe, and draw knife. The adze was listed as a maddock. Always cracks me up when someone is selling something and they don't even know what it is. I bought a "bacon press" I use often. It's made from aluminum, wooden handle, shaped in an arch with slots in it. That's because it's a pot strainer. How did they figure a light aluminum utensil would flatten out bacon? :lol:

Frozen fries, cinnamon rolls, and biscuits are things we have been out of almost entirely since Christmas.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

Hey Boog
We have a few biscuits here.
Do you want me to ship you some?;)

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

Yeah buddy. You'd be wise to latch onto some extra cans now that you know there is an apparent NATIONAL shortage of em. After the past two years we are used to some items missing on the shelves now and again but this is a first being biscuits. Not even the cheapest brands are to be found. I've never made biscuits, yet. You tube here I come. :lol:

Inquiring minds want to know!

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

I can see it now.
What did you do /Not to your truck?

I learned how to make Biscuits & Gravy :lol:

Here's your Guy to learn from:ito:

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

Oh yeah. My guy Cowboy Kent. Some good cooking right there. Yessiree!

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

I'll have to check him out. I'm all about home made. I couldn't tell you the last time I bought those tube biscuits. I could count the times on one hand. They are tasty and all that, and I wouldn't turn them down if you offered me some. I just prefer home made. I'll be making apple crisp for this evening, before my son eats all the vanilla ice cream! I'd make some of that, but need ingredients and no running out today.

I got that old style oak shoe ran off yesterday. The router bit wasn't the exact profile, but I realized I could rip a square edge and rip a second side where the curve went to square and come real close to a match.

Here is the store-bought (darker) and mine

Before I got too carried away, I realized I didn't need a whole lot of it for now and didn't run off the whole board. Turned out that 1x6 I found was 12'. I'll have other uses for the rest.

I had plenty of afternoon left, so I got back on my barn move project. I think it's been since Thanksgiving since I've done anything. I have the "move from" side all prepped and ready for the move, had the "move to" wall temporary supported, and ready to cut posts. I cut all but the front corner and installed what bottom plates I could, till I get to that front corner. I think I'll do the rest today.

These are pictures of what I started with, before putting up the temporary posts and beams. The back corner does have a single temporary post because I had to cut out the back corner post to put the stem wall in

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

Mouldings look great . The barn move is coming along .

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

Fired up the Traeger and smoked some meat!

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

That looks mighty tasty. I was checking on Google to see how far Bellevue was from Montezuma.... :) ..

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

I'll be right over :)

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

Looks great ! My smoker is snowbound right now have to settle for grilling with lump charcoal

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

I found out what is going on with the biscuits. The manufacturers can't get the metal ends for the tubes they are packaged in..... Plenty of biscuits and tubes just no metal ends.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

Oh man that looks good. :metal:

I've been so wanting a Traeger smoker. I guess I'll just have to drop some less than subtle hints before Valentines Day.

I just got done making a panic run to get tortilla chips. I'm making nachos for the game. I went to the store yesterday and got everything. All the fixins for my famous nachos.

Everything but one thing. I forgot the chips. :dohh:

I got lucky. They had fresh home made ones. :metal: I was really panicked after the whole saltine cracker incident. My wife finally did manage to find those. Halleluiah. I'm set to go. Now all I have to do is heat them up and drink lots of beer. Go Rams

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

Easy does it;)

This is a Chevy & GMC forum:lol::chevy::gmc2:

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

I'm waiting for the game to start so the store won't be crowded. And getting an early dinner where there are no televisions.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

Really? They can't get little tin can lids? Don't tell me they are imported..

Did they ever clear out those cargo ships backed up at Sand Diego?

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

Current president cleared the way for 24 hour operations at the ports, and the back log is diminishing.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
 

You mean today? :lol:

I don't get the hype over Traeger smokers. I guess I don't get it because I've been smoking killer smoked meats on all sorts of smokers, including home made, for decades before Traeger went on their huge advertising push. Not just my smoked yummies, but from many people and restaurants. I guess I was never meant to be a consumerist. I missed that boat. I do not understand the brand hype at all. Currently I am using an El Cheapo CharBroil offset smoker. But I also have a vertical Weber. Never even heard of Treager five years ago and people have been eating great smoked meat since before any of us were born
