I'm an old retired guy that likes to cook. I used to have a resturant in Cheyenne, WY. But just stick to poisening my friends and family now. I have always catered to foods that were greasy or smokey or greasy and smokey but now my doctor says to mend my ways. Sooooo, I'm having fun trying to turn over a new leaf. I need all the help I can get!
