Hey, I’m Ross
Most folks know me as SaucyRossyBBQ . I built this Helper App myself and put it out for free, because I wanted the tool to exist for our sport — no paywall, no account needed.
If you’ve got it in you to chip in, it means a whole lot. And if you’ve already bought me a coffee — thank you so much. Your support pays the server and hosting bills that keep a system like this running.
You won’t see this again for a month. Now get back to it — good luck at your next cook. 🔥
