Never knock something until you've tried it,right Harry? My cooker just
doesn't want to let my cook down around 200° to 225°, so I kind of
learned it through the school of tough love. When I finally quit worrying
so much about temperature, my blood pressure went down and the quality
of my 'Q' went way up. Not so speak of which, I get a great deal more
sleep.
