[Avid-L2] Re: it's that time of year...

 

Wow after an advanced search of the archives it would seem that Wilson has been the first to use the term, "spatchcocked" on the Avid L-2. The actual definition is much more tame than what I had in my head, I'll spare the group on that note. Wilson you never cease to amaze me! The only thing that could make my day more complete now is if while spatchcocking you blew out your GFI. I just can't wait to order my next OKI dog special spatchcocked, I bet it will really bring out the flavor. ;-)
