The Wednesday Wellness threads are meant to encourage users to ask for and provide advice and motivation to improve their lives. It isn't intended as a 'containment thread' and any content which could go here could instead be posted in its own thread. You could post:
-
Requests for advice and / or encouragement. On basically any topic and for any scale of problem.
-
Updates to let us know how you are doing. This provides valuable feedback on past advice / encouragement and will hopefully make people feel a little more motivated to follow through. If you want to be reminded to post your update, see the post titled 'update reminders', below.
-
Advice. This can be in response to a request for advice or just something that you think could be generally useful for many people here.
-
Encouragement. Probably best directed at specific users, but if you feel like just encouraging people in general I don't think anyone is going to object. I don't think I really need to say this, but just to be clear; encouragement should have a generally positive tone and not shame people (if people feel that shame might be an effective tool for motivating people, please discuss this so we can form a group consensus on how to use it rather than just trying it).

Notes -
I grill 2-3x a week and smoke with my electric smoker 1-2x a week.
I used one of those chimneys for charcoal for a few years but now I’m back to lighter fluid.
I use a Weber and (I’ll look at the brand if you want but any of the 199$ ones are mostly fine) electric smoker.
Buy a fish basket or veggie basket or two.
My best recipe:
Cherry tomatoes, mushrooms, red onion, pablona peppers, sweet baby peppers, kielbasa tossed in olive oil and Sazon Completa seasoning.
Grill it in a basket for 4 minutes a side on the charcoal side.
Eat.
No one has not lived it - ever.
Leftover for breakfast with scrambled eggs.
Most impressive:
Whole snapper. Have the market clean a small to medium snapper, run her down with olive oil and your imagination of spices and herbs (garlic salt , black pepper , cilantro to start) and grill for 3-5 minutes a side on the charcoal side.
Ribeye:
Worshershire, garlic salt, black pepper
Grill on the charcoal side until as ‘ burnt ‘ as you like and grill it to a tad over medium so the fat renders.
Get a meat thermometer.
