last a long time, almost no ash.............pricey..........buy the Big Block XL........This is what I use for pork butt...
I saw a genuine US military flame thrower for sale at the gun show in Tulsa three weeks ago...........it was all there, but pretty rough, it did have an unused set of hoses with it...........only $15K........
Had a guy go to Sturgis with me one year...........he got a big tattoo of Foghorn Leghorn below his knee...........said he always wanted to tell the women he had a big cock below his knee.........
