Hey Spectrum.

Turns out his setup is exactly what mine is. Because he is my son using my growspace lol.

Total of 3 4x8 tents, a 2x4, a clone station, and various other goodies. Your basic windfall for a new grower.

The problem with those scopes is the stand. The cheap ones they come with are in my mind useless. there's too much vibration when adjusting the focus to work well. They have better stands that cost as much as the camera's. I got one from a review I made that was part of the requirements to get the thing but it works much better, its solid and doesn't move when focusing.

I'd say your Googler is broken if that's the recipe that came up when asking it for a Texas Chili recipe.
Are you sure they didn't call it Pinche Gringo chili? Because that is Pinche Gringo chili if I ever saw it.
8lbs of meat to only 4 teaspoons of cayenne? Friends don't let friends AI recipes.

I see what needs to be done now. Official Texas Chili thread coming soon. No gawd damn beans ;H

Tis the season. I'm down to try some different chili recipes. Even those Texas meat sauce recipes with no beans.

Our chilly has 2 kinds of kidney beans small slices of finger sized pepperoni ( pepperoni sticks) , thick back bacon, roast beef cut into small chunks, hamburger, peppers,whole mushrooms, onions, maybe celery, Tomato's and chilly powder to taste. I have to add my own heat to taste per bowl. I like it hot, served with shaved cheddar cheese, sour cream and maybe garlic bread.

That sounds good. I’ve never heard of using the pepperoni sticks.

I have to add heat to my bowl, too. The rest of the house doesn’t like spicy flavors as much as I do.

I have one. As noted most stands are cheap and flimsy. I hold it and take 5-7 pics to get one or two good ones. 🤣

I go to the tent and hold it while using the phone to take the pics. Son does a better/faster job.

If a leaf or an insect I’ve had no problems just holding it. The zoom levels are good. The signal and connection have been fine. Battery life is good, lasts months sitting and I’ve never had it die on me. Was a BD gift that I’ve only had for a year or two. (Can also act as a regular video camera.)

Some hate them but it’s a lot better than the loupe or magnifying glass for me. That model is close to mine but they are all about the same when I looked for one. My zoom is a ring that goes all around the pen, not just in a recessed section.

Very similar to mine. I haven’t added pepperoni sticks before but I do to a lot of other things. I’ll have to try that. I keep the amount of ground beef and ground pork equal. Corn sometimes but it just looks wrong. The celery is needed for the cool bites, we do it hot too. Shredded cheese and sour cream are great but not mandatory. I like a few Premium Plus crackers on the side, unsalted. 🤤

When cooked into the sauce they swell and moisten like little pepperoni meat balls, Too many oils up the Chilli but just a few mixed in is a nice taste treat when you hit one. A French Canadian friend of mine started me adding them after 1 of his chilli parties

I'm definitely going to try this. Everything your saying about this sounds right up my alley.

New all things chili thread now open!

Bandit's West Texas Gunslinger Chili Recipe and whatever that abomination is you call a chili recipe thread

First, a history lesson: As with any popular food, there are many legends surrounding the origins of chili con carne. Some sources describe a very similar dish dating back to the Aztec world in the 1500s. One legend involves a divine figure called 'the Lady in Blue' who spoke of a spicy...

I kept doing something similar and mine kept slipping probably cuz I didn't have a skewer or something like that

Dub my version the zero tool diaper method

i feel the holding the paper towel tight and not letting it slip when going from hump to hump is the key regardless on the tool or if even just fingers.
