What did you do to your TJ today?

[John Cooper]

Have you had a Pasty ? (Both sides of my moms family were from Cornwall and were hardrock miners ). They are fantastic , especially when it was food made for poor people eating where they were working.

The traditional ingredients are the only way to fly. All raw going in and all cooked together in the oven.

Not sure about about the Rutabaga.

Turnip is the substitute , you can usually get it in the grocery store.

That's better. Sad thing is we didn't plant any turnips last year or this year.

Have to buy them.

Lots of Cornish miners emigrated to the Upper Peninsula of Michigan (the U.P.) to mine copper, and brought the pasty with them. Every time I get back to the north part of the mitten, I’ll ask at the party store “who makes the best pasty around here?” and grab a few for the freezer.

Yoopers (denizens of the U.P.) will tell you to eat it with ketchup, but I like ‘em with beef gravy.

This place is close, I’ve had their pasties and can confirm they are U.P. quality. And they will ship!

If you have an adjustable do you need to run a bracket or is it good to mount it where the stock one mounted?

I still used the bracket because of my pinion angle and clearance at the gas tank skid.

 

[lumberjacklloyd]

Rear trackbar bracket is only useful above 4" of lift or it takes away too much up travel. Adjustable and stock bracket is best under 4" of lift.

I think its one of those install it and see if you need it or not.

I'm born and raised in on the border of Cornwall and Devon... Pasties were my staple diet....my Auntie used to make them as big as a dinner plate (traditional size) and slow cook them in a coal oven...... I missed her cooking.

Back in the early Colorado gold mining days , Cornishmen would speak up for a new miner trying to get hired on . " Oh that's my cousin Jack from Cornwall he's a great hand " ! So many in our area were all cousin Jacks or Jenny's ! Almost all of then actually met after the new guy was hired . It was a tight group of folks that work hard together !

haha I didn't know that, love it.
I have a few tin miners in my family tree from way back. They were as tough as old boots back in the day. (On a side note, Cornishman are usually not very tall either haha)
