    What'cha cook'in Momma for Mothers day?

    Like several others, I'm in the "Doing Nothing" camp. Our daughter decided to treat mom to a 3 day trip to Las Vegas starting this morning. As a courtesy, she asked me if I was interested in joining them. I declined. She booked a suite at the Aria hotel and I said that I would handle the air...

    Gas Prices???

    My wife, daughter, and I all have cars that call for 93 octane. I just filled up my car at a local Shell station in suburban Chicago for $6.79/gal. I can't wait to see their reaction.

    Trip Canceled

    Sorry, but not surprised, about your experience with Spirit,but I doubt that you'll be getting a refund of what you paid for a couple reasons. 1. You cancelled the reservation therefore there was no fraud involved was involved. 2. I saw yesterday that Spirit, which is currently in bankruptcy...

    Sesame Ginger Lime Ahi Tuna Steak over Sticky Rice

    Looks great to me. Perfectly cooked with a quick sear, and a complimentary sauce I'm familiar with. Great job Keith.

    Coppardo....The Reveal!

    Outstanding! A Master Class tutorial on the preparation and presentation of Italian charcuterie. I'm intrigued by the lardo which I love, but haven't had in a long time. Is the total amount shown (60%) a result of the processing, or did you lay extra back fat on? Great work.

    Best Blender for Smoothies, Need Your Advice

    I agree with you on the Blentec. We use our unit multiple times daily, and it's a workhorse. I just looked at the unit and it shows the "made on" date of March, 2011, the same month I bought it. Also, the usage meter shows that it's been run through 7,286 cycles. The only issue I've ever had is...

    Christmas Eve Prime Rib

    Excellent! Nice work.

    Travel with a prime rib….

    This is pretty simple to solve. Cook (or smoke) the PR to a few degrees less than you would like to serve it. I like a PR with a finished IT of 125 so I take it to 118. Then, immediately pull it, wrap in 2 layers of heavy duty aluminum foil, wrap that with a heavy beach towel, and place that...

    2025 NFL Season Thread

    It's been a very good football year for me for a change. Though not a native I've lived in Chicago for 40 years so the Bears are obviously my pick. Also, I'm a Indiana University alum who played there 1 year, though it was basketball. I recently dug 2 sweatshirts from both teams out of storage...

    Crowd Cow?

    I would definitely recommend the rib eye steak over the filet mignon. All of the A5 producers are excellent, however, my last couple purchases have been from Kagoshima and their products have been outstanding.

    Crowd Cow?

    I've been a customer of crowd cow for around 10 years, primarily for for A5 Wagyu. Over the years, they've expanded their offerings in multiple areas with the same dedication to high quality products at a reasonable price. A couple days ago I ordered some sashimi grade Hokkaido scallops from...

    Thanksgiving How To Spatchcock a Turkey

    I have the same OXO poultry shears that others have shown, but when things get tough with a large turkey, I use tin snips.

    More SF Style SD Tartine

    Beautiful looking loaves. I envy your skills. Several years ago I was working with a client on a long term project in the Bay area, and commuting there a couple times a month from my home base in Chicago. If time allowed, I would swing by Tartine in route to the airport and pick up a loaf or...

    This is what heaven must be like.

    They didn't allow women until 1970 when the Supreme Court forced them to do so. They drew a line on the bathroom issue, and it was unisex until the mid 1980s.

    The last time I was there, a few years ago, they accepted debit cards and personal checks.

    This is what heaven must be like.

    Sounds like you're having a good time, except for the weather. If you're going to Katz's, there's a procedure to follow when ordering. When you arrive, get in line and as you move along they will give you a blank receipt. Don't lose it. Be prepared ahead of time on what you're going to order...

    This is what heaven must be like.

    Dan - Sounds like you're having a good time in NYC, a city that I love. Though I wasn't born or raised there, I lived there in Manhattan for several years. After relocating from NYC many years ago, I still manage to get there around 6 times a year. As you found out, Arthur St. in the Bronx is a...

    Anyone else make aged eggnog?

    Sorry for the delay in getting back to you but I finally saw the bartender who makes the 1 year aged eggnog last night and he told me that in addition to the Fortaleza anejo tequila, he also uses Amontillado dry sherry. When blending the two, the the volume of sherry is 50% of the volume of...
