I cut these about an inch and a half thick. They should be tasty.

Yes the thicker the better. Those thin cuts cook to quickly and you don't have a chance to get a good sear.

No. A volunteer.

I had rats take up residence in my backyard where my vacant dog kennels were. I found there was some food in one of the dog houses that drew them in. That caused me no end of anxiety until I ran them off. I put rat bait out, watched with the pellet gun to chase them around any time they showed themselves. I think it took me a bout a week to get rid of them.

Hello Coop

The wife always liked her pork cooked thoroughly, so ones that thick would be a challenge.

We had pest control come out and he determined that setting out bait was the only thing he could do since everything else seemed fine. It was like $250 to start and $90 a quarter. I just got my own bait stations, but they were for mice. This monster wouldn't fit and actually got its head caught in one of the mice bait stations for a while. So I get the big lunch box size bait station and it got in the range and died.

I put rat bait out.

I now have a prescription of rat poison (Warfarin). lol

I like them cooked but still moist. Tiny bit of pink is okay too.

Yes, you're using charcoal as well. I don't do gas grills anymore.

Yes, you are correct. The scare on pork is from the early 20th century when people fed pigs garbage.

If there was any pink, I was in big trouble.

I used to use gas only for several years, then I about blew myself up, since my eyebrows off and the hair on one arm. I went back to charcoal after that. But truthfully, I just haven't grilled much sense.

I've never had a gas grill. I can see where they'd be convenient, but just not for me.

We had a gas grill years ago. Brother and Miss Daisy decided to fire it up by starting the gas with the lid closed, then opened it up with fire in hand. When it blew, the whole grill lifted off and did a back flip off the deck.

I don't like any pink.

Thankfully no one was hurt.

Well I have a grill hooked to the natural gas, a charcoal, a pellet and a propane that I can use. Just saying having options is a good thing.
