I always feel guilty, even though I haven't done anything... When you've been eating steak for every meal, a plate of beans can taste pretty good.

Right now I'm smoking a Savinelli with a balsa insert. It's filled with a 50/50 mix of Smoker's Pride Natural and Vanilla Cavendish. I know, I know, I should be ashamed of myself.

You would think, but no. He just decided to be an aromatic smoker. (go figure!) I've only tried 2 so far, the Astley's, which I didn't care for much, but when I mixed it 50-50 with some Skokkebye English Oriental Supreme, it made a pretty good smoke. So no loss there. The other one (I'm...
