    Those brats and kraut turned out great. Can’t wait to see the beans and rice video.
    Glad to hear you’re giving your back a chance to heal.
    Breezy is such a sweet dog, with a face and eyes like that, how can you not fall in love with him.
    Hope the ladies are doing great.
    Have a very blessed day everyone!

    I enjoy your solar cooking videos. The brats really browned nicely and the saukraut brat sandwich looked so delicious. I don't blame you for eating three! I would have done the same. 😋😋 Look forward to the thermos cooking, too. Great deal you found. Beans and rice, yum. Glad you're taking it easy for a few day.

    Comment: Now you've done it! Going to the Metzger (Butcher) to get some Bratwursts and going to a Farmers Market that sell Sauerkraut from the fass (Barrel). I cook them in a Dutch Oven at 180°C for ca 30-45 minutes. I brown the Brats, take the out, throw some bacon bits into the brats fat, cook the bacon bits till they are crispy, remove the. leaving the grease in the dutch oven, cook two halved and slice onions in the bacon/brat grease when they are translucent, add the sauerkraut, dump in some beef broth, ground caraway seeds, take a tea ball put 2 bay leaves, 2 clove corns, 2 all spice corns, 1/2 tsp pepper corns into it and drop it into the sauerkraut ( You get the spices without spitting out all the corns) , add some brown sugar to taste into the pot, stir it all up, dump the brats back in, and bake them. Great eats....Now I've got to work in the kitchen after seeing your video.

    Brad those Bratwurst looked incredible. I was going to ask you about what you thought was the best solar oven a while back however I don't really have a place to put one that wouldn't be a problem if I had one I would slow cook some dark meat Turkey with BBQ sauce until it fell apart and put it on hamburger buns I did that before with a crock pot

    Yummmmmm! Sure looks good. I've always enjoyed seeing your alternative cooking methods. This video reminds me of all those sessions on your back porch at your previous place. You have a good point about updating new viewers. While your back is healing maybe something to consider recording is more front porch cooking and such. As I listen to rain of Debby, on my roof, this morning, wonder how many on the east coast are without power. Can't turn on microwave or anything else electric to make a cup of coffee? Thankful that we still have power. Thankful, too, that we have some of those cooking alternatives that you've shown in the past.
    Sound like, looks like, your back was better yesterday. Hope it is even more so, today. Hope too your CT had good results, as well. Results from Sis's were very positive, at this point. Hope it means she can continue to pause her chemo.
    Have a blessed day. Godspeed.

    A Texas Roadhouse Barbecue is being built by the Walmart. It’s bigger than a football field
    I plan on dying there. Barbecued everything plus smoked brisket and monster sausages.
    buckets of slaw. One way ride on the geezer bus ,then eat till I bust.
    I’m starving. I just got back from making grocery and helping to load geezers less fit than myself on and off the bus. They were a lot heavier too!
    I have six pounds of keilbasa, and I just realized that I didn’t get the kraut!!!😫

      Most definitely better than canned! Today , I looked at it and said “Ah there’s the kraut.” but ,for some reason, I didn’t put it in the cart!
      On second thought, it might be time to try making it.
