Heard Steven Raichlen say the same thing in his barbecue book, that fat is flavor and not something to be scared of. @kai_knight1's quarter inch rule sounds perfect, gonna try that next time for sure.

My friend Jake swore by boiling eggs for exactly 11 minutes until his roommate timed him and showed him they were done in 9. He was so embarrassed he started setting timers on his phone for everything.

Competition guys showing off"? Man, I thought the same thing until last spring when my throw line literally saved me from a dead cottonwood that was one gust away from becoming my new accidental coworker. Did you feel like a wizard pulling off the move or more like a clown fumbling with the bag for 10 minutes straight?
