Leg of lamb was delicious. Pulled off grill at internal temp of 135° and let rest 10 minutes. Tender and juicy.

Never had a problem getting my stuff nice and smokey on my Traeger using a variety of different pellet brands.

My only guess is using some off brand pellet grill from Menard's or temperature too high.

Depends how into trains you are. This event had train rides, open cars to walk through, sheds with engines and cars nose to tail. Some you could walk through with displays and yesteryear. Various companies represented. If I was in the area and a train guy I'd stop. Don't care about non moving trains from the area and hours away, I'd not go. Kid enjoyed it, but there were other booths, tents, rides, etc going on.

Sharing some pics to help you with your decision.

There is also an old west town close by.

Thank you, that’s really cool. Idk that I’d make a trek JUST for that but it’s not terribly far either. We’ll try to check it out the next time we’re near is nothing else.

Did you trade places with Jedi?

 

[Ballstater98]

Three emails from Natchez so far this morning.

I got the magazine too.

I got the magazine too.

I used to years ago, along with the emails. Suddenly a couple of weeks ago, they started back with the emails.

I passed through that area a couple weeks ago and saw the signs for it. I'm into old railroad stuff and seeing your pics convinced me to plan on stopping there some time. Thanks for sharing.
