[RANT] Can we all agree that retailers releasing 'bundles' of old pedals with a couple of cables tossed in is awful? It happens everywhere, and hoses search results. I've never once bought something because it was bundled with cables that, without fail, never match my current setup.

Wish me luck! I'll post the results, but I (intelligently) celebrated being unemployed for the first time in my life by buying my first 10+ lb Brisket. Going for as close to Aaron Franklin style as I can get on the Weber Smokey Mountain.
