Default Pitmaster's Log Book, back it on Kickstarter

I just launched the Pitmaster's Log Book on Kickstarter yesterday. The Pitmaster's Log Book is a 100 page log book to document all the aspects of each cook.

The idea originated from a frustration I had. I didnt have an easily accessible place to document every time I cooked barbeque. For years, I wrote things down on different types of paper making it difficult to retrace my steps with any cook I did. At this point, there are about 16 years of cooks documented on different types of paper.






The solution was a book with a standard entry format with room to document the most frequent variables in a barbeque or grill cooking session and a bookmark to quickly get you back to where you started. Pitmasters Log Book.

Our initial funding goal is designed to cover the raw costs of the production process. Itll pay for the cover, the layout and design (done in-house by Mike Hall), and the printing of the book. We have our printer lined up, and the costs specced out. If we hit our initial funding goal, Pitmasters Barbecue Log Book will become a reality, with a projected publishing date of September 2018.

If you or, someone you know would be interested in the project, sign up to be a backer or, share with someone you know! #bbqbetter

Seems silly to me to put that time and money into a log book when so
much free information is readily available.

Just go here

My Business Costco (not to be confused with regular Costco) has full
racks, b\skin on or skin off pork belly, Clod, necks and slices of
meat I've never heard of. And 0.30 to 0.70 less than the regular
costco
