    ***What Are You Smoking, June 2021?***

    Love it. I have a Weber and a side smoker, but the Big Green Egg is the best cooker I've ever had. They are expensive, but worth every penny. Last week I fixed a steak, ran it up to 600+ degrees to sear the exterior, then 3 or 4 minutes to a side - perfect. When I cook chicken its easy to set at...

    I made it to J.J. Fox, F&T, and old Dunhill's while I stayed at Victory, my military club in the 90s - where I still have my membership today. In their sitting room in the 90s I could smoke my Havana cigars and pipe. Those days are gone. We who remember the old days know what has been lost.

    Thanks! Yes, that's how I remember it, although not sure Mr. Walter was on duty when I was there. It was overwhelming and so glad I had the Pounds to buy my Author. I understand their pipes were made for them by Dunhill and others. You didn't find anything that was stamped Ashley's with a pit or...

    I didn't know Dunhill made a Baker Street blend. I have never seen it here in the States, nor on my trips to the UK, including times at Dunhill's shop.
