/ck/ - Food & Cooking

My buddy got a smoker recently and is kind of anal about it.

>”no worries anon they’ll be done quickly, we can leave by 10:00 to go out”
>proceeds to check on them every twenty minutes and we end up leaving at like two am
They were pretty great, but I don’t have the dedication for that. I have the patience to wait eight hours for a meal, but is he just a sperg or is that how you have to do it all the time?
I can understand doing that if you’re hosting a party/grill n’ chill.
Is there some shit that I can just throw in there and leave? Because that’d be tight.
Otherwise my lazy ass should probably just use a crock pot.

I really want to stop doing this but I go STRAIGHT into DTs/WDs if I stop. I want to do the HAMS beer taper but I know that this week is going to be rough on me, I doubt I can handle other people being crazy stressed if I’m not mentally limber myself. To be honest I’m a lot more socially capable than a lot of my friends and hardly ever do stupid shit, I’m just getting those phantom organ pains and they make me worried.
