After washing away the weirdness of the last few days and pulling on your most comfortable pair of jeans, complete with an old, baggy sweater and well-worn boots, you were ready to tackle the next problem of the day: how to get to Brooklyn.

You’d left your car, dead battery and all, back at the office. But when you got out to the parking lot, you saw your car sitting safe and sound in your spot. Cleaned. The battery magically coming to life when you turned the key in the ignition.

Huh. Maybe it really was magic that had charged your battery. Being a wizard was kind of super convenient, and you almost regretted being just a normal, average—

Your shoulder gave a twinge, throbbing under your sleeve.

Okay, maybe not entirely average. You sighed through your nose as you drove out of the parking lot and into traffic, once again reminded that you were going to Bucky’s place to do more than just talk.

As it turned out, it wasn’t too difficult to figure out who Jacob Miller was when you took two seconds to think about it. Though you began to have your doubts once you were standing outside of the historical condo. It was even less reassuring when you were let past by the doorman into an intricate, opulent lobby.

A multi-million dollar apartment didn’t really seem Bucky’s style.

“Ah, yes, Mister Miller said you would be coming,” the desk manager informed you with stiff politeness, directing you toward a small bank of elevators.

It was too late to back out now, so you let yourself be led along, trying not to feel like a lost, wayward lamb.

The elevator operator—because apparently those were still a thing that existed this century—hit the PH button for you. The knots in your stomach tightened as you realized the clock tower you’d seen on the outside of the building, was in fact, part of “Jacob Miller’s” residence.

God, you really hoped this guy was Bucky. It made sense. He wouldn’t use his own name, even if the world thought he had died in 1991. Especially with all the business a few years ago of Hydra trying, and failing, to take over S.H.I.E.L.D., he would want to be careful.

Once you reached the top and the elevator doors opened, you were surprised to see the elevator itself open directly into the penthouse suite. The floor plan was open, spacious, almost empty… until you realized this was just the foyer.

Feeling like an intruder, you called out Bucky’s name as soon as the elevator doors shut behind you. Your echo faded into silence with no answering reply. You winced as you checked your new phone to find it was only 8:30 PM, your anxiety having forced you to leave too early to give yourself time to navigate the roads. With the holiday shopping traffic a nightmare, you were surprised you’d arrived so soon.

Too soon, apparently, if Bucky wasn’t here. But wouldn’t the desk manager have said something if that was the case? Where would Bucky even go?

With slow, careful steps, you walked across the hardwood floor into the apartment proper.

It was… not what you had been expecting. There were no walls to separate the space, apart from an alcove you suspected was the bathroom. The living room was off to the side near one of the large clock face windows, of which there were four, each in the middle of the four opposing walls. The entire apartment was in a perfect cube space, set directly in the scooped-out brains of the former clock tower.

On one side was the living room, complete with a plus couch and a widescreen TV on an elegant mahogany stand.

In the middle of the square penthouse was a raised dais, empty except for a nice teal rug, and a glass elevator just beyond. You stood beside it and peeked upward into the “shaft,” open enough to show that the elevator went up at least two more stories, a railed staircase wrapping around it like a wood-and-steel boa constrictor.

Just how big was this place?

On another side was the bedroom, if it could be called that, being so out in the open. The bed, an extra-large King-sized piece with a modern, black wood frame, was situated in front of one of the massive clock face window, giving a breathtaking view of the Manhattan skyline across the river.

The kitchen was in a corner between the bedroom and small dining room. It was ultra-modern: sleek, clean, and would put most cooking shows to shame with its burnished silver and white appliances and smooth granite countertops. It made you wonder for the first time if Bucky actually ate food, real food, or if he just survived on… well… sex.

The thought made your stupid, gremlin libido perk with interest. You ignored it, not too difficult to do when the object of your involuntary lust wasn’t even here.

Overall, it was not the kind of home you’d imagined Bucky having. You weren’t sure what you’d been expecting, maybe an off-the-grid cabin in the middle of the mountains. Or even a boat he let stay anchored off port, flying back to the city if he needed something.

That’s what you would do if you had to live as a demonic hermit. Not lavish in luxury in a multi-million dollar penthouse in a clock tower.

Okay, actually, you did love the clock tower part. He was like a real-life gargoyle, and now you wanted to ask him if he perched on the ledge of his roof and wrapped his wings around his shoulders like a medieval French statue.

Your humor faded, curiosity dimmed as you remembered why you were here. And it wasn’t so you and Bucky could become friends.

Morose mood restored, you sat on the edge of the plush microfiber sofa, set your purse on the ground, curled your hands in your lap, and waited.

It was exactly the last thing you needed, to sit alone with your thoughts. You’d be able to distract yourself all afternoon and evening by getting cleaned up, watching TV, and spacing out on your phone. You might have spent the time doing the housework you’d put off, but it seemed the wizards had done it for you.

Just like your car, your apartment had been completely cleaned. Which was nice, if not kind of weird, but you definitely weren’t going to complain over a clean apartment.

You’d just wished you could stop thinking.

Since Davin remembered everything, you weren’t sure you could show your face at work ever again. Funny how that seemed to be your most pressing concern, but honestly, working at an office was bad enough without a coworker knowing you had to have sex with a demon because the alternative was a gruesome and tortuous death.

And then there was Bucky. You’d thought you were getting somewhere with him at the wizard’s palace. You’d thought he cared about you. Was it all a lie? All a manipulation to get an easy meal?

You shifted on the cushions, stomach aching as your stress increased. Please, let me be wrong. Please let this be some kind of horrible misunderstanding—

You jerked your head to the side, tilting it at a sudden noise somewhere above you. Low and thudding, rhythmic, like a bass beat.

But you were in the penthouse, there was no one else above you. No one could be playing music up this high, could they?

Curious, you got up from the couch and returned to the elevator shaft, placing a hand on it as you looked upwards. The sound seemed to be originating from there, and it hadn’t stopped.

Worrying your lip between your teeth, you took one last look at the living space. Fuck it.

You took the stairs, not willing to use the suspect-looking glass elevator. The shaft was open, allowing you to walk past thick cables and steel beams as you continued upward, a hand steadying yourself on the smooth railing.

The sound was like a drumbeat, but the pacing was uneven. It sounded like… like a heartbeat. And with each step upward, the pace seemed to quicken, grow stronger, as if urging you onward.

You swallowed heavily as you kept going. The higher you went, the less it looked like a condo and the more it looked like the inner workings of a clock. Old, wooden beams crisscrossed from wall to wall, dust motes floating in the pale light cast from a light somewhere above you.

It was cold, very cold, as if the heating system didn’t go up this far. You suspected it didn’t, and you wrapped your old sweater tighter around your chest as you shivered.

Reaching what you could only describe as the “abbey,” you saw the large space where the mechanical clockwork had actually been stored. It had all been removed long ago, but the wooden scaffolding remained, high above your head. There was a wrought iron staircase that led to the roof, free of rust but still looking as if it was over a hundred years old.

There was no reason for you to keep going up, anyway; the sound was originating from the wall to your left. The beat was urgent and so loud you could feel the pulse in your chest and fingertips.

You should have been terrified, would have been terrified, but you were trapped in its pull. It wasn’t an urge, or curiosity, but a soul-deep need to find what it was.

You dropped to your knees before the wall, seeing just the faintest shadow between one wood plank and the next. Digging your fingernails into the crack, you pulled at the plank, sweat almost running into your eyes despite the chill that formed puffs of white from your lips.

Pulling so hard you felt a nail almost break, you yanked the wood out of place, tossing it to the side where it clattered against the floor.

The beating stopped.

You stared at the black space, completely dark inside the wall. There was absolutely no reason to stick your hand in there, where you with either find a still-beating, tell-tale heart, or a cursed children’s board game that transported you into a magical jungle.

How messed up your life had become that neither of those things seemed far-fetched.

Your decision was partially made for you. Even though the thumping had stopped, the urge to reach in and grab, to pull, to hold whatever it was that had made the noise to begin with—it was growing stronger by the second.

So it was with a shaky hand that you reached into the hollow crevice, your heart pumping madly as your dry throat compulsively swallowed, and wrapped your fingers around…

…soft, plushy fur?

After a moment of confused hesitation, you retracted your hand and stared down at the object in your grip.

Covered in a light layer of dust, grey tabby stripes faded with time, there was no mistaking the onyx glassy eyes staring back at you.

“Mr. Squiggles?” you asked, sounding so much like the ten year old you’d been when you’d lost him. Vanished into that unknown place where all lost childhood toys went.

Or so you’d thought. Why the hell did Bucky have… your… your…

Your thoughts ground to a halt, a crowbar thrown into the gears as you stared down at the toy in your hands. Your favorite toy in the whole world that had disappeared around the time the cursed book had said the demon pact had been formed.

You probably wouldn’t have made the connection so quickly if not for how the tabby cat felt in your hands. There was something about it that felt horribly visceral, like you’d reached down into your chest cavity to give your organs a direct poke.

It was extremely disturbing, but when you pressed the stuffed cat to your chest, it felt… better. You could take a full breath and loosen your muscles, no longer sensing the tension on the back of your neck.

You closed your eyes and didn’t move for a good while, trying to come to terms with the fact you were holding some kind of… piece of your own soul in your hands, if the book could be believed. So far, everything that damned thing had said seemed to be right.

Wincing at the stiffness in your knees, you kept the toy tight to your chest as you went back downstairs, being extra careful on your way down the stairs. You weren’t concerned for yourself, exactly, but the thought of dropping the toy made your heart race with anxiety and your vision slightly spin with vertigo.

The legs that carried you to one of the couches were numb and cruising on autopilot. You sat down—perched on the edge of a cushion, more accurately—and set the toy in your lap.

You didn’t move from your chosen spot, not even when your phone read 9:14 P.M. Bucky was late, and you didn’t feel anything. Numbness had seeped through your entire body at this point, refusing to believe the implications of finding this toy in Bucky’s possession. Holed up in a wall like some kind of dirty secret.

You heart began to race. Okay, maybe you weren’t as numb and disconnected as you’d thought.

The sound of your name being spoken by a familiar voice only a few feet behind you startled you so hard you jolted to your feet.

You spun around and banged your calves against the coffee table as you tried to retreat. The furniture stopped you cold, your arms wrapped protectively around the toy pressed to your chest.

Bucky stood absolutely stock-still. His half-curled wings gave him an intimidating silhouette, further strengthened but the outline of his curved horns and the flickering tail near his legs.

You hadn’t heard him come in, as silent as a big cat stalking through a forest, eyeing the tree line for a meal.

But he wasn’t looking at you like a predator. There had been very few occasions where you’d’ seen the blood drain from Bucky’s face, leaving his skin pale and his eyes haunted.

This was one of them.

He said your name again, this time with an unsteady questioning. His eyes, slightly wide as he stared at the toy in your arms, finally rose to your face.

You expected him to ask how you’d found it. Maybe even get angry, yell at you for snooping in his house and sticking your nose where it didn’t belong.

Instead, he said nothing. Still as a real gargoyle stature. The silence that surrounded him was so much worse than anything he could have said, and it was far more damning.

“Bucky.” Your voice shook. You wanted to be wrong. Had to be. “Why do you have this?”

His lips slightly parted but no noise escaped. Bucky closed his mouth and his brows deepened into an almost pained look. It was guilt you were seeing. Guilt, because he had done something wrong and he knew it.

The confused hurt, the suspected betrayal, all of it rose to the surface in a fury that left you feeling like you might explode. You maneuvered around the couch, walking fast up the two steps onto the dais before coming to a halt.

You were still a few feet away from him where he stood frozen next to the elevator shaft. From this height, you were almost eye-level with him.

“This is an animus, isn’t it?” The words were sharp and accusatory. Bitter.

Bucky’s eyes went comically wide. He took a step forward, tail flicking with distress. “How do you know about that?”

“Does it matter?” you choked out, tone rift with sarcasm. “Is it true? Did you force me into a pact with you? When I was just a kid? Did you?!”

He said your name again, low and even, his hands out as if trying to soothe a spooked horse.

“I need you to calm down and tell me exactly where you heard that word. It’s important.”

“Important?” you repeated, angry tears filling your eyes as your throat tightened. You hadn’t wanted to believe it, every part of you had wanted to prove the book wrong. Instead, you’d found your worst fears confirmed to be true.

“You know what’s important? The fact you’ve been waiting for me to grow up. Fattened me up like a lamb for the slaughter. That’s what I am to you. Just a meal.”

The tears clouded your vision and you wiped them viciously away, just in time to see the wince in his expression. Bucky had nearly reached the bottom of the dais, about to put his foot on the first step, but your next words stopped him cold.

“Did you really rescue me that night? Or were you and the Alpen in on it together?”

The open look of shock on his face was wretched, as if you’d plunged a knife straight through his chest, leaving him raw and bloody.

You regretted the words almost immediately, but the damage had been done.

Bucky stood there with the look of a man who was trying to steady himself, reel back the emotions that were rarely so exposed. His Adam’s apple bobbed, brows lightly furrowed in anxious worry as he dropped his gaze to the hardwood floor, somewhere near your feet. His wings were tucked as far against his back as they would go without folding up, shoulders hunched as if to make himself smaller.

Despite how hurt and betrayed you felt, there was a large part of you that wanted to reach out and wrap him in your arms. But you didn’t. You remained completely still as he began to speak.

“I found out just before you were attacked.” His words were flat, a hint of sadness to them. “I’d been searching in the Sanctum’s library for weeks. Never found an answer. So I went to Wong, asked him if he knew anything about humans bearing demon sigils. As it turns out, he did.”

Bucky took a deep breath, his wings shifting uneasily on his back, tail wrapping around his leg in a tight coil.

“He explained how pacts are made. It still didn’t make any sense; they can’t be made on accident, both sides have to agree to it. We never did anything like that. And then… I remembered the toy.”

Bucky rose his eyes high enough to stare at the stuffed tabby in your arms. You squeezed it tighter, holding onto it like a lifeline.

“You wouldn’t remember, but you gave it to me, soon after I came through the portal. I guess… that was good enough for whatever fucked up magic creates these things,” he said, his pointed ears drooping miserably. You hadn’t even known they could do that, and it made you feel even more of an asshole, a feeling you were becoming all too familiar with.

Tilting your head with a frown, you said, “I don’t… understand. Why would I give you Mr. Squiggles?”

Bucky’s morose expression lifted the smallest degree as he met your eye.

“’Mr. Squiggles?’”

“It’s his name.”

The faintest twitch touched his lips, the gesture making something in your chest stir, but then he grew serious again.

“I don’t know why you did it, if I’m being honest. I wasn’t exactly stable. Not to mention a fucking demon had just landed in the middle of your bedroom. You should have been terrified. Instead, you… just. Handed it to me. Said it would help.”

He gave a small shrug. If you hadn’t gotten so good at reading his tells, the way his tail uncoiled and twitched as his wings shuffled, you wouldn’t have realized he was actually embarrassed.

“And you… kept him? All these years?”

His tail swatted like a cat’s, his wings unfurling enough for you to see the warm glow of the lamps shining through the webbing.

All easy, obvious tells. Also, he was blushing. The sight of it was like injecting your libido with steroids, and you had to fight to pay attention and not do something crazy, like, jump his bones.

“I didn’t want to get rid of it,” he grumbled, unable to meet your eye. “Would have seemed like an asshole thing to do. Plus I was… drawn, to it? Should have known there was something more going on than me just being a sentimental idiot. I had no idea what it actually was. What I’d done to you.”

Bucky licked his lower lip before lightly sinking his teeth into it. His sharp teeth, your horny monkey brain supplied helpfully. He raised his head to finally meet your gaze, his pretty eyes almost enough to distract from what he was saying.

“And then when the heigore nearly killed you, I just… It didn’t seem all that important, at the time. That’s why I told you to come here. I was going to tell you. Tonight.”

“Oh.” Shame flooded your cheeks, but it didn’t completely sidetrack you from something else that had been bothering you. “But… why didn’t you tell me afterwards? When I was stuck in that room. You didn’t come see me again, after I woke up…”

You let the words die when Bucky winced, drawing up his shoulders and shuffling his wings again.

“I couldn’t talk to you. Not there. Not when Strange himself was probably spying.”

“But you could talk to Davin.” Some of the steel had returned to your voice. “You could visit and threaten him—“

“I didn’t threaten him,” he huffed out, a measure of hardness in his own tone. “I told him the truth. Said that if he told the sorcerers what the heigore knew about the demon pact, they would lock you up. Strange would, too. Do you know how lucky we are that he didn’t sense your sigil?”

It was like a cold splash in your face, dampening your anger, and the tension from Bucky’s expression drained as well.

“Why didn’t he?” you asked, voice small.

“Honestly? No idea.” He licked his lip, once again annoyingly distracting. “But, after everything that happened, with the heigore, and with your friend… I think it might be a mistake to keep all of this from Strange. I should have gone to him after… that first time.”

Bucky seemed to have sudden difficulty speaking, his Adam’s apple bobbing as he looked up and studied your face, long enough that you had to fight to not squirm.

“I think that’s what I’m gonna have to do. Tell Strange. He might keep you at the Sanctum, but he would find a way to break the bond. It’ll be better than—“

“No!”

Your sharp denial echoed off the hardwood floors and plaster walls, slightly startling to yourself but apparently more so to Bucky. He stared at you, frown steadily increasing.

“No? What do you mean no. We’ve got no other choice.”

“You can’t,” you choked out, fear clutching at your throat as you took a step forward. “I won’t let you.”

“You won’t… let me,” he repeated, voice lowered in confusion.

You plunged forward, desperate to tell him what you had found now that you actually could. You knew he’d be pissed, but it was better than him being dead.

“I… I saw something. While I was there. I didn’t mean to. I was just following Monster, he opened my room somehow, and I followed him down to the basement. And, and there was this, dungeon.”

You took a breath, running out of air from your panicked rambling, now standing almost directly before Bucky, still meeting him at eye-level.

“Bucky… it was a trophy room. A demon trophy room. There were horrible things in there, demonic taxidermies and babies in jars, and—“

“You…” The pitch of his voice had dropped again, this time definitely not from confusion. “You went into the dungeon?”

“You’re missing the point! If you tell them about the pact, they’re going to, to… I don’t know! Turn you into a rug, or something!”

Bucky actually groaned and pinched the bridge of his nose with his thumb and forefinger. When he spoke your name, it was with barely-contained patience, as if he was doing everything in his power to stay calm and not shout at you, which was kind of super hot—

“That’s not a trophy room, girl,” Bucky growled. “It’s a vault.”

“A… what?”

“A vault.” He lowered his hand and leveled a loaded gaze at you. “For the last two decades, I’ve been helping the sorcerers raid old HYDRA bases. Abandoned labs and private collections, shit like that. Whatever I could remember, making sure we took all their occult stuff. I didn’t want them doing this to anyone else.”

Bucky’s eyes hardened and you sucked in a breath, gut tightening as your body had all the wrong reactions to his stern tone.

“So yes, a vault. A place where the sorcerers store incredibly dangerous demonic artifacts to keep wandering guests from accidentally cursing or killing themselves.”

The darkness that enveloped his features made the hairs on the back of your neck stand up, and when he took the short stairs to stand on the dais directly in front of you, you took two hurried steps back.

“Did you touch anything?”

You mouth opened, useless, like a gaping fish. Bucky snatched your upper arms in his grip, halting your retreat as he glared down at you, the toy trapped between your chests.

“I need you to answer me. Did you touch anything.”

“I…” Your voice was a pathetic squeak. “Y-yes? I, I know I shouldn’t have—“

“What was it?”

“A book!” you blurted out, equal parts scared and unbearably turned on. “Just an old book!”

Bucky’s fingers tightened on your arms as his eyes widened.

“A book? What kind of book? What did it look like?”

“Uh, it was, I donno. Really old? Wrinkly leather, old musty pages—“

“Did you open it?” Bucky cut you off, and when you didn’t respond fast enough, he actually gave you a small shake. “Did you open it?”

“Yes!”

Survival instinct finally overtook the unnatural, magically-fueled arousal. Tears blurred your eyes, fear clutching your throat. Not from Bucky’s anger, but from the color that was receding from his face for the second time tonight. It was his fear that was making your knees tremble and your words spill out of you like a wound.

“I… I opened it. And the pages cut me. It formed w-words from the blood. It asked me wh-what I wanted, to know, and that’s how I know about the… the animus. It told me—told me about—the pact. And it can’t be broken, it’s permanent, nothing can break it but—but death. And it wouldn’t let me go, Monster had to shut it—“

Panic and terror weighed on your chest and coursed through your veins as the full weight of what had happened crashed down on you. Seeing Bucky’s reaction had made it suddenly far too real, and you couldn’t handle cope, couldn’t breathe—

You clawed at his jacket for purchase the same instant Bucky moved forward, grabbing you and holding you upright as your knees tried to buckle.

“I’ve got you, okay? Just… take deep breaths. Slow your breathing. I know you wanna take big, gulping breaths, but that’s the opposite of what you gotta do.”

As he held your shaking body to keep it from falling apart, Bucky’s speech took on a slightly different inflection, forming around a light New York accent.

That more than anything snapped you out of the feedback loop of panic. You clung to him tighter, one arm still around your stuffed animal as the other gripped his jacket tight, your face half-buried in his neck.

The scent of pine and fertile earth flooded your nostrils and immediately grounded you.

Breathe. Yeah, you could do that. You could breathe. Especially with Bucky murmuring comforting words to you, one large hand rubbing between your shoulder blades while the other was slung around your lower back.

“I’m sorry,” you choked, trying to gulp and gasp at the same time. “I’m sorry I keep freaking out. And messing up. Everything I do, I just, I make it worse. I know—I know I shouldn’t have followed, but Monster led me there, and I thought… I mean, it’s Monster. He wouldn’t lead me somewhere dangerous, would he?”

Bucky snorted, tickling the hairs on your head.

“Hobgoblins are a pain in the ass on a good day. They do what they want, when they want, and you just gotta kind of accept the fact you’ll never really understand them. I don’t think he was trying to put you in danger, but…”

He loosened his hold and pulled you away gently, at arm’s length, looking down at you with a strange, reluctant expression.

“That book shouldn’t have opened. Not for you.”

You tried to swallow the sudden lump in your throat.

“W-what do you mean?”

Bucky’s eyes narrowed into thoughtful slits, his brow furrowed and uneasy.

“Only the Sorcerer Supreme can open the Necronomicon.”

“The… what? Can open the what?”

“The Sumerian Book of the Dead,” Bucky explained, not really explaining anything at all. He took a deep breath, as if what he was about to say caused him great pain.

“It can only be opened by the sorcerer’s leader. I don’t think Strange’s tests worked. I think… he might have been right that you had something to do with that portal. There’s a reason that book is locked away. It’s extremely dangerous. The fact it opened for you…”

Your eyes widened as his hands dropped from your shoulders and his flesh arm reached into a pocket—and for the second time that day, you snatched someone’s hand as they were about to dial their phone.

“Bucky, please.” Your voice was tight, afraid, and you were past caring if he heard it. “Don’t. I can’t do this. I can’t go back there.”

He didn’t remove your hand, but he didn’t put away his phone, either. He just watched you, expression unreadable.

“Can we just… wait?” you asked. “At least until after the holidays? The wizards just let me go, and I can’t… I need a chance to breathe. And sleep. And absorb everything.”

It was true; you were seriously at the end of your rope. One more encounter with demons and wizards and you were going to lose your goddamn mind.

When he didn’t seem entirely convinced, you threw pride to the wind, willing to beg if you had to.

“Bucky, please. Davin’s safe, I’m fully recovered, and… whatever’s going on with me isn’t going to change over the next few days. So can we just… take a breather?”

Bucky’s expression, at first hard and unconvinced, had slowly loosened into something so soft it tugged painfully at your chest.

“Yeah,” he finally said, voice a little rough. “Yeah, you’re right. You need the rest, and I need to figure out what to do about all this—“

“Okay, no, right there, that’s a problem.”

Bucky blinked when you interrupted him, stepping into his personal space and tapping him on the chest, fixing him with a stern glare.

“You. You keep thinking you can do all this yourself, but this is a we problem. You and me. We’re in this goddamn mess together. Which means no more secrets. No keeping anything from each other. Full transparency.”

For a moment he just stared at you as if you’d spoken in tongues. Well, maybe not tongues, he was a demon after all, but he definitely didn’t seem to comprehend what you were saying.

“Look… we’re both stuck in this situation for the time being. And avoiding it until the last possible second and not talking to each other is clearly not working.”

You didn’t know where this was coming from; you certainly hadn’t planned to make a speech about it on the drive over. You guessed it had been building up for a while, running in the background while you dealt with the crazy shit that was your life.

Bucky seemed to be listening intently, focused on your face with brows furrowed, and you were encouraged to keep talking.

“I know the pact is meant to be some kind of ownership thing, but even the book said you can’t control my soul, or mind, or whatever. So… who’s to stop us from treating this thing like a partnership, instead of a one-sided power trip? Neither of us wanted this, but we’re both adults. We get through it, do what we have to do, and we stop hiding things from each other.”

Blowing out a shaking breath, you winced and added, “Or am I just… being stupidly naïve about it?”

Now that you’d finally said your piece, rambling and awkward as it was, you felt both freed of some invisible burden, and very, very nervous as you watched Bucky for his reaction.

He looked completely caught off-guard, but his eyes shone with something like understanding. Maybe even some kind of relief, too.

“No,” Bucky said, his voice slightly lifted in surprise. “You’re not stupid or naïve. I actually think that’s… a very mature way to think about it.”

You felt warmed by his praise for all of two seconds before Bucky’s face folded inward.

“To be honest, I’m surprised you still want to talk to me at this point. I thought maybe you would hate me. Not that you don’t have every right to hate me. I’m expecting it, that’s all.”

“Why would I…” You shook your head, hugging Mr. Squiggles to your stomach as you tried to grapple with Bucky’s words. “Hate you? No, of course not. I was scared, and angry, because I didn’t know all the facts. I got upset because I don’t hate you.”

Because I think I love you.

You shut your eyes, squeezed them hard as if the act would force the rebellious thoughts back into the farthest reaches of your brain. You were trying to patch things up with Bucky, and him knowing the truth about your feelings was not going to help.

The irony didn’t escape you that after just promising to be transparent, you were still hiding something. But this was different. God knew how Bucky would react. No, that wasn’t true, you knew exactly how he would react. He’d tell you you’re not in your right mind, that the bond is influencing you, as if you don’t know your own feelings, and then he’d probably go directly to Strange.

So, no, this was a truth that was safer not to tell.

“It’s getting bad again, isn’t it?”

You hadn’t realized Bucky had moved, and you opened your eyes to find him standing inches away, watching with close attention.

“What?” you asked, mentally rewinding your conversation to see if you’d missed something.

“Your sigil.”

“Oh.”

You hadn’t actually thought about it for a few minutes, distracted with your own inner turmoil, but now that you took stock, the throbbing between your legs had increased to an almost unbearable degree.

You gave a shrug, oh-so causal and fake.

“It’s manageable.”

Bucky gave you a look that said bullshit but he didn’t contradict you. Instead, he reached forward and took the stuffed cat from your arms, his flesh fingers holding it as carefully as if it was made of fragile glass and not cotton stuffing.

“I’m gonna set this over here for now,” he explained as it perched on a chest-high cabinet. “I have a safe I can use. Now that I know what this actually is, I’m gonna make sure no one can find it. But that can wait until—“

Bucky’s words cut short with a choked noise of surprise, pulled from him when you had pressed yourself, full-bodied, right up against the entire front of his frame.

When you had first grabbed the toy, it had felt horrible. Unnatural. Like you’d reached inside to prod at your own organs.

When Bucky had held the animus, you’d felt like your entire existence had been placed within the palm of his hand. And for some reason, that massive, overwhelming, existential feeling filled you with the craziest need to press every inch of your body against him at once, as well as to rub your face against his neck, which you did now.

And while you were there, you decided it would be an amazing time to stick out your tongue and lick a long stripe up his warm skin. He tasted just as good as he smelled, and you hummed in delight as your body valiantly tried to meld with his on a molecular level.

“Okay—that’s, uh, fuck,” he choked out, his hands on your arms in a half-hearted attempt to pull you away. He ended up doing the exact opposite, pressing you closer, his hands now digging into your back. Something large and warm covered you, and you didn’t even have to break contact to see what it was, your lips hot on his neck as his wings wrapped around you like a second set of arms.

Bucky was already hard in his jeans, pressed taut against your hip, and when you reached under his arm and stroked your fingers down the curve of his extended wing, his cock twitched and he gave a hoarse groan into your hair.

Planting his hands under your ass and lifting you off your feet, Bucky didn’t waste another second closing the distance to his bed.

From the Strategist: 21 Best Grilling Gifts for Every Type of Grilling Enthusiast

Photo: ClassicStock/Getty Images

All the grills and grilling accessories a grill master could want, from the Strategist

At its most basic, grilling is cooking on an open flame, like what our prehistoric ancestors used to do, but if you’re not the kind of person who takes pleasure in lighting charcoal on fire and then cooking big slabs of meat on it, you might be struggling to find the best grilling gifts for someone who does. (Though even self-described grill enthusiasts sometimes need help finding an actually useful but still unique grilling gift.) So to make it easy, we rounded up 21 of the best grills and grilling accessories that would be excellent gifts for the person in your life who likes to fire it up.

For the griller who struggles with lighting charcoal

BBQ Dragon Cordless Grill Fan in Silver

Jean-Paul Bourgeois of New York City’s Blue Smoke calls the BBQ Dragon, “a fire starter’s best friend. This easy-to-use little gadget will clip onto any grill or smoker and assist you in getting those coals burning fast and evenly.”

For the griller who mostly cooks with charcoal

Panacea 15343 Ash Bucket With Shovel, Black

If anyone plays a little fast and loose with the disposal of coals, or wants a safer way to do it, this steel ash bucket will help prevent accidents. As Hugh Magnum, pitmaster at Mighty Quinn’s Barbecue, explains, “It sometimes takes as long as two days for coals to be completely cold, so you don’t put any coals for at least two days into a trash bag, or else that trash bag will go up in flames.”

For the griller who’s terrified of burns

Artisan Griller Insulated Cooking Gloves

Writer Caitlin M. O’Shaughnessy was introduced to these pit gloves by her mother, who used them to take a full turkey out of the oven. “The cotton-lined gloves are coated with neoprene rubber and designed for true-blue barbecuers who have to handle hot meat on the smoker — that means they’re also waterproof, stainproof, and (most importantly) greaseproof.” They also come recommended by Patrick Martin of Martin’s Bar-B-Que Joint in Nashville, who actually prefers these heavy-duty gloves to tongs, especially when working with big cuts of meat, like whole hogs.

For the griller who’s looking to streamline

Stingray 7 in 1 BBQ Tool

Swap out the tool kit for this 7-in-1 grilling tool, recommended by self-described “pretty competent outdoor griller” Steven John, who calls this “the Swiss Army knife of grilling equipment, combining all three tools and even sporting a bottle opener built into its handle.”

For the griller who loves steak

Sloan Personalized Miniature Steak Branding Iron

For Valentine’s Day, writer Leah Bhabha gifted her carnivorous boyfriend a personalized branding iron, purchased on Amazon, and it was an instant hit. “We’ve now emblazoned his initials on everything from ribs to rib eyes, and even busted out the brander for cast-iron cooked burgers (the patty’s initials were covered by the bun, but he liked it so much he branded them anyway).”

For the griller who prefers chicken

Two-in-One Vertical Chicken Roasting Pan

Nick Pihakis of Jim ’N Nicks Bar-B-Q in Birmingham, Alabama, calls this chicken-roasting contraption “one of the best ways to cook a chicken. Not only is upright roasting the optimal position to roast a chicken (fat drips away, heat surrounds the chicken 360 degrees, skin crisps up better), this cooking method allows the steam and vapors to flavor the chicken from the inside cavity out, helping it to stay moist.”

For the griller who’s also a hibachi enthusiast

Elite Platinum EMG-980B Large Indoor Electric Round Nonstick Grilling Surface

If dinner has become a bit of a slog recently, consider setting up a hibachi or Korean barbecue night and using this highly rated indoor grill to do it. Reviewers on Amazon say, true to advertising, it’s truly non-stick (so feel free to go all in on your marinades) and is just as effective at grilling vegetables as a grilling a sturdy ribeye.

For the griller who’s not sure what to do with vegetables

Sur La Table Stainless Steel Grill Basket

Steven John recommends a grill basket, “that can be placed atop any sort of grill (charcoal, gas, or even wood fire) and filled with loose veggies, shrimp, fries, and so on.” It keeps these more delicate ingredients from sticking to the grill’s grates, and, as John notes, “the grate’s cleaner, too.”

For the griller who over-checks their meat

Thermapen Mk4 Thermometer

A meat thermometer is a must-have accessory for a barbecue enthusiast to quickly and easily ensure that meat is fully cooked but not overdone. And for my money, there’s no meat thermometer better than the Thermapen. As I wrote in my review of this gadget, “What makes the Thermapen stand out from other digital kitchen thermometers is its speed and accuracy. According to the manufacturer’s website, this food thermometer can tell the real-time temperature of whatever you’re trying to measure within 0.7 degrees Fahrenheit in under three seconds. That speed makes a noticeable difference when you’re balancing a roasting pan on a hot oven door as you try to take the temperature of whatever’s inside without burning yourself or letting out too much heat,” or dealing with a hot barbecue grill. (And I’m in good company. The Thermapen also comes recommended by Amy and Mike Mills of 17th St. BBQ in Murphysboro, Illinois.)

For the griller who’s getting into marinades

Boiled Cider Syrup

In his roundup of the best condiments you can buy on Amazon, writer Hugh Merwin recommends this boiled cider, which is “kind of pure apple essence,” he explains. However, that sweetness makes it an excellent addition to a barbecue tool kit. “Grillmasters use it at the base of marinades, where it tenderizes meat and its mildly tart and subtle flavor blends in with wood smoke.”

For the griller with a small patio

Fire Sense Large Yakatori Charcoal Grill

Recommended by Leslie Roark Scott of Ubon’s Barbeque in Yazoo City, Mississippi, this large yakitori grill is ideal for those in a “tight space. It’s the perfect size for a couple of steaks, and holds heat like a champ.”

For the griller with no patio

Weber 10020 Smokey Joe

If you’re looking to gift a truly portable grill, for someone who dreams of grilling in Prospect Park, the Weber Smokey Joe is a classic choice. It’s a no-frills option, but it’s got the same durability as the larger kettle-style Weber grill.

For the indoor grill enthusiast who hates smoke

Philips Indoor Smokeless Grill

We discovered this indoor smokeless grill while watching Queer Eye on Netflix, and it’s a solid option for someone who wants to grill but is constrained by the realities of living in an apartment. It uses infrared light to heat the grill and help prevent smoking from dripping fat.

For the indoor grill enthusiast who doesn’t want another gadget

Lodge Pro-Grid Cast-Iron Grill and Griddle Combo. Reversible 20 x 10.44” Grill/Griddle Pan With Easy-Grip Handles

Though it’s more likely to smoke up your kitchen, this cast-iron grill plate from Lodge is “the indoor grill that’s closest in spirit to firing up the charcoal.” (Plus, because it’s essentially a flat piece of cast-iron, it’s much easier to store than a new appliance.)

For the griller who likes that smoky taste

Z Grills ZPG-7002E

As Steven John explains, “a pellet grill is a barbecue grill that uses an automatically fed supply of wood pellets to maintain a preestablished temperature and infuse the cooking foods with smoke aroma and flavor. Your fuel source is also your smoke source.” That means your meat takes longer to cook, but it’s also got more smoky flavor, and in his testing of pellet grills, John liked this one from Z Grills, in part because “you can load up enough wood pellets for hours of smoking with minimal refills required.”

For the griller who wants to go full pitmaster

Masterbuilt MES 130B Digital Electric Smoker

On a long hunt for the “best, not-too-massive city grill,” Lauren Levy discovered that the best barbecue grill is actually this digital smoker from Masterbuilt. That’s according to Myron Mixon, the winningest man in barbecue, who explains, “It’s a digital smoker, so you can actually punch in the temperature you want and it takes you right there from 100 degrees to 275 degrees in just a few minutes.” He continues, “The truth is, everything that someone would want to barbecue you can cook with the Masterbuilt smoker, and it’s much more delicious.”

For the griller who likes to cook low and slow

Akorn Jr. Kamado Kooker

The first rule of Grilling 101: Leave the meat be. But when you’re constantly worried about your provisions burning that can be difficult to do. That’s why the grilling enthusiasts of Amazon love the Akorn Jr., a ceramic, kamado-style grill that does an excellent job of maintaining low temperatures. Plus, it’s about a tenth of the price of the popular, kamado-style Big Green Egg grill.

For the griller who tries to keep their grill spotless

Drillbrush BBQ Accessories

I’ve written about the Drillbrush as the best tool to keep my shower clean, but the company makes different brush attachments with different stiffnesses for different purposes, like this barbecue accessories set, which can be used to detail-clean even the most grease-stained grill.

For the griller who likes to grill and chill

YETI Roadie 20 Cooler

“When you’re smoking whole hogs, you can’t go for a beer run, so you need a good cooler that’s going to keep your beer cold for the night,” wisely notes Patrick Martin of Martin’s Bar-B-Que Joint. That’s why he recommends a Yeti cooler to keep by the grill. “I guarantee when you reach for a beer, it’s gonna be good and cold — just like it should be.”

For the griller who likes to carve meat

John Boos Block BBQBD Reversible Maple Wood Edge Grain BBQ Cutting Board With Juice Groove

This sturdy Boos block has a juice groove to catch any liquid that might come out when carving a big hunk of barbecue. (And this gift certainly doesn’t have to be retired once grilling season is over. It’ll also come in handy at Thanksgiving, when it’s time to carve the turkey.)

For the griller who likes eating barbecue more than cooking

Messermeister Avanta 4-Piece Fine Edge Steak Knife Set

Once they cook the meat, they’ll need something to help you eat it, and that’s where these Messermeister steak knives come in. “There’s a curious delight in using these very, very sharp steak knives to bisect a morsel of beef (or pork, or chicken, or whatever flesh you have lying around),” writes Katie Arnold-Ratliff in her ode to these. “The blade slices through the steak with tactile precision — a kind of buttery, slippery ease that makes me say every time my boyfriend and I use these knives, which is a lot, ‘Man I love these knives.’”

When to replace your stainless steel grill grate

It is a joyful experience to cook with a stainless steel grill grate, it have following good point.

Easy to clean,

Corrosion resistant

Durable and can use for long time .

So even thought the stainless steel grill grate is design to use decade ,but cooker still need to replace it when you find some corrosion,chipping on the grate. Follow is more knowledge about stainless steel grill grate.

Corrosion of the grill grate

Although the stainless steel grille has a high chromium content, that doesn't mean it doesn't rust. When exposed to moisture and oxygen, oxidation occurs; therefore, rust. However, it may take much longer due to the properties of the alloy.

Small rust on the grate may not cause significant concern. This is because you can easily remove them with a wire brush. However, the large amount of rust can be worrying, and it is difficult to remove with a wire brush. If you find the corrosion going deep into the grate, please replace it.

Over time, rusty stainless steel grill can cause serious health problems. Therefore, replacing them when the stainless steel grate rust is crucial for your healthy and wonderful barbecue experience.

It is difficult to clean up

It is self-evident that due to the nature of the material, the stainless steel grill grate is the easiest to clean. Even if these grate don't require much brushing and scraping, you need to clean them regularly to take care of them.

If you don't clean the stainless steel grill grate very often, they get so dirty that you can't clean them. If your grate is soaked in soapy water and is thoroughly washed and scrubbed with a wire brush, then please know that staying on the burner again is very tiring. Replace your grill grille to continue to enjoy outdoor summer memories, but remember to clean your new grill grate regularly.

What is the reason to make the grill grate rust.

This is not uncommon among barbecue cooker, In terms of quality and durability, stainless steel grid grids rank first because they contain a high chromium content and are ideal for reducing oxidation. However, when they are exposed to oxygen and moisture, the grate will not be rust.

Grills, especially grate, are subject to various abuses leading cause corrosion. If exposed to extreme temperatures, the grease splashes onto the element if not protected. The good news is that the rust on the stainless steel grill can be removed with a wire brush or a barbecue scraper, and then flushed with a solution of water and vinegar.

The stainless steel grids stand out because they are self-repairing, unless extremely corrosive. Even with severe rust, the stainless steel grill grills are still the easiest to clean.

How to prevent stainless steel grids from rust

Stainless steel grill grids are not as prone to rust as cast iron grates and require hard maintenance. However, it does mean that you set up and barbecue for years. To enjoy years of incredible barbecue experience, it is best to season the grill before use. This will reduce viscosity, which is the acceleration of rust.

Indirectly, the oil helps prevent rust by rejecting water. Indeed, stainless steel grate does not rust, but with seasoning, you can strengthen prevention; therefore, more years of ultimate barbecue experience.

When brushing your stainless steel grill grate with a wire brush, ensure low energy. Excessive pressure damages the appearance of the grate; therefore, expose it to the element and increase the chance of rust.Most people find that the stainless steel grille grid rust is caused by the contact with the rusty metal, and we know that the wire brush sheet will accelerate the corrosion.

Finally, keep your grill grate safe. It is best to cover the grill when not in use. By covering it, you will protect the grille and the whole grill from elements that may cause rust.

Conclusion for this article ,If you want to enjoy the excellent barbecue experience for a long time, the stainless steel grill grate is a good choice. However, when you find the grill difficult to clean, rust or peel, you will have to replace the grill. With extensive maintenance of your stainless steel grate, you can replace it at any time between 5 and 15 years.

in byron bay

I saw Byron Bay for the first time three years ago. I was driving north on the coastal highway from Sydney to Brisbane with my wife. The rain had stopped just beyond the town of Ballina, where the highway snakes inland toward the foothills of the northern coastal ranges. By the time we were west of Byron Bay, the iron-gray wedge of cloud had lifted to let the sun cast its warm, early evening light across the undulating grasslands to the flat brown marshes and pale dunes on the ocean's edge. Cape Byron was a distant grass-covered dome surmounted by a white lighthouse. Shafts of sunlight caught the rainfall evaporating from its rocky ledges and the salt-laden spray blowing in from the sea to form a bright rainbow that bridged the shores of the Cape and the patchwork of colored rooftops to the west of it.

The rainbow was enough to make us detour to Byron Bay. We followed a narrow road past marshland and blocks of whitewashed houses to the small town's main street. From there we found our way to the beach. By then it was dusk. A glassy swell rose and broke in even white lines along the sand and dolphins were playing inshore, their dorsal fins tracing lazy arches above the wave crests.

Without rainbows and dolphins, the town itself might appear to be just another of the many old beach communities scattered along the New South Wales coast. It isn't particularly picturesque; off the main street — and behind the motels and new apartment blocks on the beachfront — boxy, fibro’ weekenders with corrugated tin roofs stand eave to eave on an accidental grid of potholed, unguttered streets.

The people are part of what make Byron Bay different. Look at the faces on Jonson Street, the town's main street: bleached-blond surfers with their boards piled on the roofs of battered station wagons; bare-chested country boys in stovepipe jeans and slouch hats guzzling beer in the back of pickup trucks; doe-eyed earth mothers in batik sarongs back-packing suntanned babies; not-so-young survivors of the 60's love generation and dreadlocked white Rastafarians. Together with the pale-skinned holidaymakers from out-of-state, whose money is beginning to turn Byron Bay into something of a fashionable resort, they all hang loose together in an easy subcultural truce. Because of this, Byron Bay is a congenial home to the sorts of ideas about alternative, natural or creative living that took root in the 60's, and the surrounding countryside has become home to various writers, painters, retired rock musicians, film producers — the producer of Crocodile Dundee, for one — gurus, small-time drug dealers and reclusive Vietnam vets.

From the brightly painted timber facade of the community center, the boutique, health food stores, cafes and pubs straggle down Jonson Street to the beach, and the nearness of that broad stretch of sand and warm Pacific surf is what induces Byron Bay's relaxed, almost indolent mood. Most of the town's population, it seems, hits the beach at sunrise. Barefoot joggers pad along the sand. Surfers paddle out through the foam to catch a few smooth, well-formed waves before the sea breeze sets in. And devout sun-worshipers settle their oiled bodies on rattan mats to soak in the earliest rays. Looking across the bay from the beach, the surrounding landscape is reminiscent of the west coasts of Wales and Ireland. As on those Atlantic shores, the fine white sand gives way to grasslands that sweep up to hills dotted with pastures and plantations and, farther inland, thick forests and a sawtooth of dark, low mountains.

The country didn't always look this way. In 1770, when Capt. James Cook explored this coast — and named Byron Bay after the poet's grandfather, Vice Adm. John Byron — the now treeless foothills were overgrown with tall timber and dense subtropical scrub. The Big Scrub, as it became known, was the largest tract of rain forest in the state, covering tens of thousands of acres southwest of the bay. Loggers began clearing the forest in 1842 to reach the valuable red cedar trees within it and they were followed by farmers who cleared more land for grazing and crops. Within 60 years the Big Scrub was reduced to a mere 484 acres west of Byron Bay, next to what is now the Rocky Creek Dam. It's an eerie feeling to enter the surviving rain forest, where a footfall is deadened by a thick carpet of decaying leaves fallen from trees that might be 1,500 years old.

After a good rainfall — more than 70 inches are recorded in an average year — the inland forests and pastures turn rich, contrasting shades of green and amber. South of the Brunswick Valley township of Mullumbimby, a 15-minute drive from Byron Bay, the Coolamon Road unravels like a black ribbon over the hill slopes. In the humid morning hours after rain, the road provides heart-stopping views of hillocks scarfed with mist and valleys studded with the glistening red and silver roofs of farm buildings.

At Montecollum, the Coolamon Road forks farther inland to Cooper's and Repentance Creeks. From there a rough gravel side road ascends a forested ridge to Minyon Falls, its waters plunging 100 yards down volcanic cliffs to a palm-fringed gorge. A little farther west, other gravel roads — most of them impassable after a heavy rain — lead to the sparse eucalyptus and red cedars of the Whian Whian State Forest, to the last of the Big Scrub and to the high, brush-covered slopes and cool grassy valleys of Nightcap National Park.

Except for local traffic in such small communities as Rosebank, Eureka, Federal or Dorroughby, which are often little more than a general store and a community hall, these inland roads are empty, even in summer. On hot days, the sandy-bottomed creeks are welcome oases, their water sweet to taste and comfortably tepid. Swimsuits aren't always required for a quick dip. Once, while crossing Cooper's Creek, I saw a young man stretched out naked on a log in the middle of the creek, his clothes neatly folded on the seat of a motorbike parked on the bank.

But on hot days, who would want to stray far from the bay? Especially if the wind and swell are in the right directions and the Pass is working. The Pass is a wave well-known to Australian surfers that breaks continously from the tip of Watego's Gap, an outcrop of jagged rocks east of the town, to the sandbanks off the main beachfront.

Since the early 60's, when board-riders first claimed this northern coast, the waves at Byron Bay have been legendary. Nowadays, though, the near-perfect breaks have become crowded and uncomfortably competitive, with surfers jostling for position on every wave at the Pass, at Watego's Beach to the east and on the fast left-hander that breaks just west of the beachfront car park at the end of Jonson Street. The car park is next to the the half-submerged rudder section of the Wollongbar, a 1,965-ton passenger steamer that was wrecked in a sudden gale in 1921. Swimmers and body surfers avoid confrontations with aggressive board-riders by going to Main Beach, just west of the car park. The scrubland around the base of Cape Byron is a place where one can retreat from the beach for a couple of hours' solitude.

From the car park at Palm Valley, near Watego's Gap (the site of Cavanbah, the bay's first settlement in the late 1870's), there is a walking track that winds northeast across Watego's Beach to the end of the Cape. Standing on this crumbling knuckle just below the easternmost point of the continent, I have watched the shadowy wings of large rays glide across the clear sand on the ocean's bottom and sharks — big bronze whalers, tigers, and hammerheads — weave predatory patterns off Little Watego's Beach. Whales, too, can sometimes be spotted out at sea, although they keep their distance from the bay, maybe because of an atavistic memory of the whaling done from here from 1954 to 1962.

Atop the cape stands the 85-year-old lighthouse, one of the last still manned in the state. From the lighthouse keeper's grounds, the view north and west is expansive, even a little humbling: trace the long crescent of empty beach from Byron Bay town to Brunswick and farther north, past New Brighton and Wooynung, and the mountains that stand like battlements beneath the deep blue sky – from the Nightcaps in the west to the ranges that form the Tweed Valley caldera around the cathedral-like Mount Warning.

The lighthouse grounds close just before sunset. But days end slowly in Byron Bay. There is time yet to have a last surf ride at the Pass, where the breakers become gentle and glassy as the sea breeze dies, or to sit on the beach and watch the ocean turn pink, then pale gray-blue as the sun dissolves into the inland hills. You might even get lucky and see dolphins, their sleek gray backs glistening in the last of the sunlight as they meander across the bay.

How Does A Pellet Grill Work?

The mechanism of a pellet grill is quite simple. First, hardwood pellets are fed into a storage compartment called a hopper, from there the pellets goes into the cooking chamber using an auger, this auger is usually powered by electricity. Secondly, the hardwood pellets then light up through combustion, thereby heating the cooking chamber. After this, air is introduced to the chamber via intake fans. As it cooks, smoke and heat are dispersed all through the cooking area.

Just like an oven, a pellet grill comes with either a dial or precise temperature control, this temperature range is usually within 82o to 260oC. This enables users to cook slow ‘n’ low or quick and searing hot.

Usually, pellet grills feature meat probes, this connects with the control board and then monitors the internal cooking temperature of your meal. Also, some pellet grills feature a patented sear zone plate that allows for indirect or direct heat while also featuring up to 8 cooking options.

Who Pellet Smokers Are Best Suited For?

Pellet smokers are for those who desire to have flavored delicious meals with a smoky taste that excites the taste buds. They are generally more expensive than gas grills and are scarcer too but they are faster, more cost-effective, and leave great sear marks on your steak.

Pellet smokers can be explained in two words ‘adaptability’ and ‘comfort’. A product that just allows you to toss a brisket on it, set the temperature and go about your duty is one you don’t want to miss out on. It’s also suitable for those with an inadequate supply of wood and charcoal as the product runs off power thereby saving you from using lots of extra fuel.

Buying Guide

To ensure you end up with a worthwhile product, we have pulled together some buying guides you should consider before making a choice. This includes:

Construction

There is a need to consider the construction of the pellet smoker as this goes a long way to establish the durability and sturdiness of the product. It’s best to go for a product made of durable and dependable materials. One of such materials is steel, this is because steel does not rust. Consider a product with astounding improvement as this ensures heat maintenance and generally improve the execution of the pellet smoker.

Portability of Product

Sometimes, you want to take your pellet smoker with you on camping trips, parties, and other outdoor activities, if this is your aim then you need a lightweight product as this makes it easy to transport from one place to another. But beyond being lightweight, the product should also feature wheelable and foldable legs, this enables you to tuck the legs in when you want to transport them and move them when its in motion. Also, ensure the wheels can be a steady position, you certainly don’t want your smoker moving as you cook.

Size of Pellet Smoker

The size of the product to go for should depend on the people that are to use it. If it’s sorely for home use, then you don’t want something so big, on the other hand, if you intend to have guests over once in a while or you love hosting parties and get-togethers, then it’s only wise to purchase a much bigger smoker as this will contains lots of items at once and save a lot of cooking time.

The larger the cooking area, the more meals can be cooked per time. Also, if you are looking for a product that’s easy to carry along on picnics or camping trips, then a more portable product should be your choice.

Wi-Fi Adaptability

With the advancement in science and technology, pellet smoker companies and brands are also beginning to incorporate this into their products. The latest one is the incorporation of Wi-Fi into their products. The use of Wi-Fi enables users to control the temperature of their grills from anywhere they are, so long as there is a network connection. Some companies like Green Mountain Grills are giving out free apps, all you need do is download and utilize for your luxury and comfort. Option for a product with a Wi-Fi connection will save you lots of stress and ensure you know what’s going on in your grill even when you are not there.

Meat Probes

These are devices used to check the internal cooking temperature of your meat. Often there is a need to know the temperature your meat is cooking at as this will help you regulate the temperature and ensure you are cooking at the exact recommended temperature. The readings are taken after which they are displayed on the LED of your cooker for your view. It is important to purchase a product with accurate meat probes, this way you will always be cooking at the right temperature.

Grilling Option

Before this time, one of the disadvantages of pellet smokers have always been the lack of grilling capacity, this is no longer the case today as many products now have grills infused in them. This is done by either carving out the grilling region in the cooker or by removing some parts of the diffuser plate.

Maintenance

Using a pellet smoker is fun and everyone loves the cooking process, but no one loves the clean-up process and that’s because its tedious and messy. This is not often the case these days as many products have a proper grease management system that traps the oil and makes the cleanup process a lot easier. Hence, look for products with proper grease management system or removal trays, also consider products with ashtrays and even easy-to-clean detachable grates as these do not stick to food and are easy to clean. Besides, also look out for hoppers that are easy to detach, clean, and reattach.

Temperature Setting

If you aren’t on a budget, then it’s best to invest in a product with innovative temperature controls, this is usually more expensive than regular products. With a PID controller, you can maintain an ideal cooking temperature and prevent your food from overcooking or undercooking. The pellet smoker can go further to have an LED readout as this shows the warmth, the temperature range as well as sensitive meat probes.

However, if you are on a tight budget, then you can purchase a product with a non-PID controller, just ensure that whatever product you are purchasing has an accurate temperature gauge and broad temperature range.

If you enquire of an expert that makes meals that have the true smoky flavor and taste, they will tell you it all comes down to the pellets themselves.

Q: Pellet grills or charcoal grills, which is better?

A: Charcoal grills are often considered better than pellet grills in terms of flavor, however, they require a higher cost of operation, it also requires more time to preheat, a luxury many cannot afford. On the other hand, pellet grills give a two-in-one option, it runs at a lower cost, has less preheating time, and also give a smoky flavor to your food.

Q: How suitable are wood chips in pellet smokers?

A: Wood chips are certainly suitable for pellet smokers. As soon as you notice that the smoke from the wood chips has become slight and it’s seething, it indicates that its time to put your meat on the grill. To better utilize the wood chips, you can also add wood pieces to the charcoal, this way it takes a longer time for the wood to burn. A few cups of wood chips can be added as time goes on.

Q: How healthy are pellet grills?

A: Scientists and health experts consider pellet grills more healthy than other grill options. They utilize a circuitous cooking technique, this reduces synthetic concoctions which can cause cancer, and even when you toss in some wood chips for added flavor, they have no adverse effect on the health.

Q: How much electricity do pellet smokers consume?

A: Although pellet smokers are fueled by wood pellets, they also require electricity to function, as various parts of the device such as augers, thermometers, control panels, and fans depend on this electricity. However, the power consumption is not so high as it requires only an average of 120VAC power. This electricity can be sourced from a gas generator, power stations, or power inverter. This power can also be connected to a car or boat battery.

Q: Do pellet smokers produce rich smoky flavor?

A: Pellet smokers do not produce rich smoky flavor no matter the kind of wood used, at least not as rich as charcoal grills. However, some products produce more smoky flavors than others. Hardwood can be used though since it provides longer burning time than other fruitwood, hence increasing the smokiness of the meat being cooked.

Q: Should water be added to a pellet smoker?

A: Yes, you can add about 2 to 3 liters of water. Other liquids such as apple juice, beer or wine can also be added to the water pan. A drip pan can be placed at the base of the cooking grate, adding just a dash of water to collect the drippings.

Wrap Up

Say no to charcoals and stains, stress and sweat, and yes to pellet smokers which are generally more convenient, faster, and easy to operate. Having reviewed the best pellet grills and gone further to take you through some buying guides, FAQs, and other relevant information, making a decision shouldn’t be such a difficult task anymore.

So, go ahead and make a choice today, your friends, family, and neighbors will thank you for the delicious, juicy, and tasty meals that can only be gotten from pellet smokers.

VIDEO GAME REVIEW: BATTLE CHEF BRIGADE (BEST OF 2017)

It’s been a great year for incredibly long games. In 2017, I’ve played at least 5 games that took me well over the 100-hour mark. In anticipation of those much longer reviews, I’ve decided to kick off my GOTY festivities with a small appetizer. An amuse-bouche, if you will. Prepare for a lot of cooking analogies.

Battle Chef Brigade

Developer: Trinket Studios (Published by Adult Swim Games)

Platform: Switch, Windows, Mac

Platform used for review: Switch

Battle Chef’s greatest success is the way in which it uses a completely original set of gameplay mechanics to perfectly capture the feeling of its real-world analog: Iron Chef. Seriously, I tried to find a less brand-specific way to describe it, but this is ‘Iron Chef: The Game’, from the secret ingredients and celebrity judges, right down to the overly dramatic, caped chairman.

To bring the experience of Kitchen Stadium into the lives of the average microwave jockey, first-time developer ‘Trinket Studios’ has concocted a truly inspired combination of hack n’ slash combat, resource management, and fast-paced buzzer beater strategy. Play is divided into two areas. First, the field, where you use your characters combat skills to defeat monsters and collect ingredients. Each ingredient has a specific flavor profile, made up of a combination of elemental orbs. The key to effective hunting is to know what you plan to cook ahead of time. To that end, you’ll be given a list of guidelines to follow: judges preferences, number of meals, and the ever important key ingredient. How well you follow these guidelines will have drastic effects on your scores. If the secret ingredient calls for you to take down a massive monster (a dragon or a hydra), you’ll need to prioritize battle strategy over swiftness in order to claim your prize. If the ingredient calls for a specific element, then make sure you know exactly where to go in each of the games 4 hunting areas to get as much of that element as possible.

Once your pouch is full, you’ll return to the kitchen to cook up your plunder. Cooking is a simple Match-3 puzzle concept, where 3 matched elemental orbs of the same color combine into a richer flavor, freeing up more space on the grid to fill with even more orbs. 3 level ones match to create a level 2, and so forth. Because you choose which orbs to add when you pick your ingredients, It’s not so much a puzzle game as it is competitive inventory management. Still, you’d be surprised just how addictive it is to try and cram as much flavor as possible into a single dish. You have to make sure you’re dividing your time properly between dishes to avoid disappointing the judges, not to mention keeping each of them free of bones and poison. You’ll have a selection of signature spices you can bring in to give yourself an edge, and your cookware can give your meals added bonuses like elemental affinities or higher bonuses for longer match strings.

Each round pits you against an AI opponent, but you hunt in separate areas and the game conceals their cooking progress until the judging portion. This means your only real enemy is the clock. You never know just how well you have to do to win the round, so you’re always bringing your A-game, always fighting the clock to add one more splash of flavor to your dishes. It's a design decision that initially frustrated me, but I’ve grown to appreciate just how ingenious it is. Still, the idea of defending your kitchen from sabotage while also trying to derail your opponents dishes could have been an interesting concept, so I’m sad to see they didn’t try to implement it.

I was definitely pleasantly surprised to find the gameplay equally engaging, but the visuals are definitely what led me to check this game out in the first place. Garnishing the entire experience are some killer visuals, decent voice performances, and a cast of loveable and memorable characters. The character designer really nails that western-anime ‘Legend of Korra’ look, and their takes on classic fantasy tropes like orcs and harpies are pleasantly subtle and inviting. Color choices are striking and vibrant, with bold primaries for the cast and muted tones for the backgrounds.

Some of the character and combat animations are a little too stilted and barebones for my taste (no turning animation? what is this? Castlevania 1?). Still, they’re more than serviceable and beautifully done considering indie production limitations. I find it hard to fault a low budget game for not being able to deliver the level of polish I’ve been spoiled with, especially for their first game, but stronger art direction could have definitely helped round off those rough edges.

I’ve shared my little nitpicks, but If I had to find any major fault with Battle Chef Brigade, I’d say that it's simply too short. What’s on offer is undeniably compelling, but it plays its hand just a little too quickly. Perhaps the team was afraid of the mechanics getting a little stale with too much iteration, which, to be honest, is probably true. That being said, I feel like there’s still a lot of room for growth here, and I’d love to see how the concept can be further fleshed out with another trip to the drawing board.

There’s a pattern to the few faults I can find in this game. See if you can spot it. All my complaints are easy fixes based on peripheral elements. Basically, what I’m saying is: SEQUEL! MAKE A SEQUEL! MAKE A BIG LONG FLESHED OUT BEAUTIFULLY ANIMATED, BIG BUDGET SEQUEL! THIS GAME WAS POPULAR ENOUGH (I think?). C’MON, TRINKET! USE YOUR FANCY NEW MONEY AND GET TO WORK MAKING THE BEST DAMN COOKING PUZZLE MONSTER HUNTING GAME YOU CAN!

...*ahem* Still, that isn’t to say whats on offer feels like a proof of concept or an unfinished experience. As much as I know this IP has room to grow, I really enjoyed what I played. It wet my appetite perfectly and left me ready for seconds. I’ll definitely be putting Trinket on my ‘Developers To Watch’ list.

BATTLE CHEF BRIGADE (Nintendo Switch)

Final Score: B+ (Highly Recommended)

Pros: Inspired Core Gameplay, Beautiful Character Design, Room for Growth

Cons: Criminally Short, Limited Art Direction, Forgettable Soundtrack
