    Things to buy at Asian Store?

    I go in specifically for clams (chowder time) and walk out with 100-150 in odds and ends. Like @jcam222 mentioned above, better jalapenos than any Latino mart.

    Has anyone else lost their tolerance for heat?

    I ate too much spicy stuff when I was young. I still use cayenne and red pepper flake, but sparingly (comparatively speaking - the kids think I cook 'hot' sometimes) because I no longer care for it. It doesn't make my manhood any more potent, and as God as my witness (flame on lol), we all...

    Bang for your buck steaks.....

    I admit I splurge about once a month and grind up between a lb and 2lbs of ribeye just for burgers. I bought something like 40lbs of ribeye roasts at Christmas, a few from Publix and our Kroger affiliate and a few from Food Lion. I want to say the Publix and Harris Teeter ones ran me 7.99/lb...

    Bang for your buck steaks.....

    I tend to buy chucks with real nice Denver sections and cut those out for steaks and recently - burnt ends. It's my second favorite steak behind a ribeye. They run me 6.99lb. They make really killer burnt ends.

    Bang for your buck steaks.....

    We've had 2.54-2.60 gas here for about a month, jumped about 15 cents today but I still can't fuss too bad. I stopped and got $40 worth last night (I was bone dry) and wished I'd filled up but c'est la vie.

    What are you watching ?

    Don't forget, gmail accounts are free..... I listened to a TON of Audible books on free trials, as well as Netflix and others (they used to all give you a month or so free.....

    What are you watching ?

    I went into Tulsa King thinking "no way I'm going to like this" - but I love it. Great show. Mayor of Kingstown is also extremely good. Lots of good stuff put out by Paramount.

    What are you watching ?

    Never watched Modern Family - for some reason I clicked on an episode a couple of weeks ago and I'm about halfway though the first season already. It's hilarious.

    Bang for your buck steaks.....

    In this day and age, at least in my area, there is no such thing as a "bang for your buck little known great steak". It wasn't just the pandemic that brought us here, it's just that times have moved on. I clicked on a link earlier to watch some very famous youtuber ( I assume 250k subscribers...

    Deli Ham

    I think it was you who turned me on to loin deli ham, now turn me on to black forest!

    Got sick, now can't stand vinegar!

    That's how I was able to quit smoking so easily. I didn't have any plans or (truth be told) desire to quit. Something in my mouth or brain changed and all of a sudden I couldn't stand the taste of a cigarette any longer. I tried 6 or 8 different brands. Just couldn't do it. I don't know if...

    Pulled pork vs chopped pork?

    I like both. I don't chop because IMO that isn't something I want to do in my kitchen. Outside - I'll chop all day long. Chopped whole hog is mighty hard to beat.

    Banana Bread

    Word. Try putting that much butter on it and grilling it. I like it both ways, but getting a little grilled action going takes it up to 11.

    Beef Tongue

    I've been trying to get some clearance oxtail for years over here. It's usually around 12.99/lb at Publix, and they all look like they come off of midget oxen

    Royal Oak Lump

    it's worth 7 bucks. I preferred to use it in my stick burner when my coal bed would get too small. Put a bit in a chimney, set it over my side burner on the propane grill, and in 5 minutes I had my coal bed back to where I needed it.

    The KitchenAid curse

    Welp, I've now killed 2 KitchenAid mixers. The one I got for Christmas is a bowl lift model. I just went to make a batch of cookies, raised the little crank to lift and lock the bowl into place, and something in it broke. Turned it over to see what I could see and there's a little piece of...

    The way of the Bacon CheeseBurger

    Never tried. I just use a fork. It comes together very well very quickly.

    The way of the Bacon CheeseBurger

    Absolutely. Take your ripe avocado and smash it up real well with mayo or sour cream to your liking. I like to add black pepper and a little salt. If I want it fancy, I'll finely dice some red onions and add them to the mix. As always, you can add whatever. A little granulated garlic isn't...
