Ooooh - MAJOR OUCHIE!

On the up side: if you have someone to fetch you the fixings, you're actually perfectly qualified to tend a smoker for just as long as it takes Wink

Heal up soon, man...

Cheers

Dang dude! Let us know how everything turns out.

If you're not gonna Q or post pics for a while, you're gonna have to scan a doctors note for us proving your restrictions.

Hope everything goes well.

Best wishes for a speedy recovery Troy!

I'd give you a solid -5.0 on the dismount. Confused

Sorry you got dinged up.

But after the surgery, and cast, you will have some time to sit around the BBQ and do some cooking! Cool

Just a friendly tip: If you smoke (cigarettes) now is the time to quit.

That will heal up a lot quicker if you do.

I've had friends sustain similar injuries motorcycling, and the non-smokers heal up a lot quicker.................................

Troy, that looks like it hurt Shocked

I hope you heal up fast, but don't push it, sit around the cooker and point and click Smile

Last year I had launched Mrs. K.A.M. and was fixing to step into the boat, it was a little windy and she was having a time getting it close so I stretched out with my left leg to hook the boat with my foot and Bam, groin pull, I folded like a cheap lawn chair.

Let a little pain stop me from BBQ? No way Laughing

I had back surgery a month ago, a week after I was making ribs. Yesterday was 15 pounds of pulled pork, coleslaw, homemade baked beans, pasta salad, and my version of a Carolina sauce(50/50 cider vinegar/ketchup, sugar, red pepper flakes simmered).

I think that leg needs to go back on the smoker - it ain't got no bark! Shocked

OUCH! Hope you get better quickly. I guess it's time to train the wife, kids, neighbors, whoever - to cook some Q for you while you recover.

Here's to a speedy recovery!
