    I had a t-bone with mixed vegetables & some stove top stuffing.

    I have a whole bunch of cutters if you need one…

    That looks like a good one.

    Thanks. But I’ve got them too, but they still end up the same way…. I’m weird, I guess… I like chewing on them as I smoke them…

    My flavored ones usually end up that way. There is an old boy that lives in town here that I have known for over 30 years, I have never seen him with a lit cigar he just chews on them.

    I liked that Padron, it burned evenly & very slowly, it had decent flavor also

    Whatdidya think of that one? I have a 5 pack I got with the ashtray box set. Wasn’t impressed with the one I’ve tried but maybe it just needs a good nap in the humidor…

    It was ok, nothing to write home about. I believe these have been resting for about a month.

    I agree with your assessment, hopefully more time in the humidor will help.

    That’s what I am leaning towards, I am watching my nephews ballgame on video stream so a nice long smoke will be great.
