    Hello from NorCal

    Ramsey, welcome from Roseville. We're practically neighbors. My wife and I always enjoy the California Honey festival in Woodland. May 4th this year. Keep smoking! Ray

    new here looking for expert advise

    I have corned my own a couple times and used store bought for decades. I have found that soaking too long can remove ALL the flavor from the beef. My wife's stomach is sensitive to salt so I needed to find a way that keeps the flavor but reduces the salt. Nowadays, like yesterday, I threw a 4...

    Prayers For Jake

    Jake, hate the issue but love your attitude. Sending prayer and angels to help with both. Glad I read this before hitting post. It read, "Kale, hate the issue but love your attitude." Keep smiling, Kale!

    Never dreamed I'd see the day I'd be priced out of fast food

    I can't remember the last time I ate at McDs. It's been at least 8 years. Last summer we ordered two burgers at a Carls' Jr drive thru and the cost was almost $25. Haven't been back to a fast food place since. Once or twice a month we eat at chain places with takeout counters (Chipotle, Garden...

    Winco Egg-Price Ripoff!!!!

    Costco today: $4.19/24, down from $4.99. I got there a couple hours after they opened and the pallets were already nearing empty. Picked up two 24-paks.

    Oooh, I better check. Yep. Netflix. And we're 4 episodes in. It WAS a Cinemax series, which we don't have. It's also available on Max.

    What are you watching ?

    We're three episodes into Warrior on Netflix, a story of Chinese gangs in SF in the late 1800's. Well done. Dark. Violent. Raw. Based on a series concept by Bruce Lee.

    What are you watching ?

    DO NOT watch The Signal 4-episode sci-fi series on Netflix. German made. Dubbed. Well acted. A little girl in the story steals every scene she's in. The plot is manipulative. It hooks you with a WTH's going on story that rips on the MH370 disappearance. The finale leads to a huge buildup that...

    Winco Egg-Price Ripoff!!!!

    WinCo is still pulling the first of the month price increase on eggs. Jumped more than $2 for 18 eggs for a price of $6.68 around the first of March. Yesterday, the price was back down to $4.48/18. We went through the cage-free issue last year. Then came the "migrating wild birds creating bird...

    I watched the first episode of Shogan earlier today. I enjoyed it, and they are pacing it perfectly. I remember reading the novel and a lot of the characters and scenes are familiar (sailor soup, anyone?). Subtitles are fine with me as long as they leave them on the screen long enough to read...

    Brisket Blues

    Smoking to meat temp will result in failures quite often. I use meat temp as a guide to start poking the meat with the probe. It is done when it is tender regardless of what the meat temp indicates. I don't use a meat temp probe at all except toward the end of a cook, and then it is usually just...

    Date night rom-com suggestion if you are/were a Beatles fan with a very minor interest in sci-fi: the movie "Yesterday" on Netflix. Fun alternate reality flick.

    Exploring Low Carb, Healthy Fat, Moderate Protein Diet - Not Keto Quite Yet

    Thanks TBM, and great rambling. I'm learning more about my body now than I ever have. Maybe that's what happens with age after an accumulation of bad habits from the invincibility of youth. And maybe it's peering into the abyss of immobility if things don't change. Whatever the cause, I'm...

    Exploring Low Carb, Healthy Fat, Moderate Protein Diet - Not Keto Quite Yet

    Update: weight is down 25 lbs. We're eating WAY more veggies, salads, nuts, and seeds. Protein (30% of daily calories) and healthy fats (50-55% of daily calories) keep me in a decent mood, feeling energized. I do take 600mg of berberine (nature's metformin) in the evening (after 8 PM), but not...

    Favorite widely available bourbon or whiskey

    Initial thoughts on OF Rye. 1st sip. Meh. 2nd sip. Hmmm. 3rd sip. Oh, I like this! People talk about green apple and banana flavors, and that's what I expected to taste. Nope, didn't get either of those. By the third sip, I was tasting the Christmas cake spices I love in a less-sweet rye...
