Congrats Jo! ... I heard the guy in the back hollaring "you can do it" ...
I'm assuming you mean Nate, but you just gave me Tony Little flashbacks

Last Friday was my birthday and I was doing some filets up in cast iron skillets, I had 4 filets going at the same time and I'd had a smidgen to drink. The timer went off for the medium rare filets and I grabbed an Ove Glove to use like a pot holder for the final flip. I grabbed the skillet, realized I was getting burnt, kept a hold so I could flip the steaks anyways, then let go. A second degree burn, the gift that keeps on giving.
I really like the cast iron skillet steaks in and on the stove but I got a cowboy ribeye that was too big for my skillets so I went and got a cheap charcoal grill just to cook this 2 1/2 lb monster. It was the first time I did a reverse sear but it worked well, getting the whole cut up to 115 under indirect heat then searing the outsides for a nice crust.
The grill was cheaper than that steak. Worth it.
A filet Friday, that monster ribeye Saturday, and a bottle of bourbon split over both days. Sunday was two smoothies, a gallon of water, and a bit of pain and regret.
My kitchen feels like an art museum now.
Unlike most art museum exhibits though, I like this stuff.

Nasty burn there! Make sure to keep it clean - a craftsman/artisan needs two good hands!!!
You may need to restock the medicine/liquor cabinet. Burns can be annoyingly painful without proper care!
Oh and Happy Birthday!!!!

Two good hands and at least a half a functioning brain. Grog is almost there, but the operative word is ALMOST as self evident by this saga
Happy Birthday Dan, yer ogre!
No wonder the nieces, nephews and the kids in general luv Ya. You're still a kid at heart Brother
