HomCookin with Jamie from Satchmo’s: Grilled Chicken Recipe

Oftentimes, you will find that making a delicious grilled chicken can be deceptively difficult. Mess up in one spot and your meal may become rubbery or too dry to enjoy. While you don’t need the Best BBQ grill on the market to make it happen, having a nice smoker such as the Oklahoma Joe Bronco helps. A local celebrity, Jamie Thousand from Satchmo’s in Flagstaff Arizona, has found a minimalistic yet delicious BBQ chicken recipe that uses only 2 simple ingredients. By following the steps in this recipe and using “Jamie’s Grilling Tips,” you’ll be on your way to making a perfectly cooked chicken in no time.

Traeger Grills

With summer around the corner, and the world beginning to seem a bit more like normal, it may be alluring to start firing up some grills and get some outdoor cooking done.

How to Make a Bug Box

Though gazing at insects and other creepy crawlies might not be too high on the to-do list of an adult, there is nothing more intriguing to a child than examining local wildlife and figuring out just why they do the things they do. It might be a bit difficult to catch a butterfly, and maybe not so appealing to collect a stink bug, but with this month’s HomTooling project, these bugs can be examined and observed from relative comfort and safety. This project will leave you with a stable and unique insect enclosure that will both protect the critter that your child is fascinated with, and keep your house safe from unruly escape artists. We’re joined by Sue today to help walk you through how to make this bug box.

Stage 4 Fire Restrictions – What to Do

The Arizona fires have occupied all of our minds this past week, some of us more than others. Now that Flagstaff and Coconino have been put under fire restrictions, these fires may seem more real than they were before. Wildfire season occurs every year, but it is always good to refresh just what a stage 4 and stage 3 restriction is, and it is also good to refresh on how to practice fire prevention and keep your house safe.

STIHL Line Trimmer: Maintenance & Repair

Spring is here and summer is just around the corner! Grass, weeds, and hedges are growing quickly as temperatures rise. Having just a lawnmower is not enough to keep your yard looking well maintained. You do not want to be THAT neighbor who does not take care of their property. A STIHL trimmer (AKA weed wacker or weed eater) is essential to trim the edges of your driveway, walkways, flower beds, hedges, around fencing, and against the side of your home and any other structures on your property. At HomCo we carry a wide variety of STIHL gas and STIHL hedge trimmers. Our technicians are ready to answer any questions about which model is right for you based on your needs. Considerations include how large your yard is, whether there are any obstacles in your yard and what they are, and how many areas need to be e...

DIY Pest Control in Flagstaff, Arizona

Now that the spring season is kicking into full force and summer is right around the corner, it may be time to think about the sorts of creatures that will be joining you in the coming months.
