Like short ribs. Used to be an off-cut you could get cheap, and now they're "fancy" and $10/lb.

"Off cuts of meat, ground up with fillers and spices? No thank you sir, I will stick to NORMAL sausages."

Full disclosure: the Worchestershire shirt is OK. It doesn't reference Fieri anywhere, and I too find the difficulty of pronouncing that word kind of funny. If I saw it on sale in a random shop somewhere, not knowing its connection to Fieri, I might consider picking it up.

Weirdly, it's available in Denver at Safeway supermarkets. I bought it on a whim - not bad at all (though I'm a fan of Cajun boudin and Irish white and black puddings, so I'm predisposed to like it).

My only encounter with scrapple was on a college road trip that went through Philadephia. We stopped at a little diner and I ordered scrapple, since I'd never seen it before and that's how I roll. The waitress - a classic greasy spoon diner waitress - pushed her glasses up on her forehead and said "Honey, you don't

Denver actually has a solid dim sum dining scene. The reviews all name Star Kitchen as the best, but I personally prefer Superstar Asian. King's Land and Empress are also good. Denver's got a reputation as being whitebread America, but it's actually got pockets of great local cuisines from the immigrant communities

You must go into Boston on occasion, everyone on Cape Cod does. Next time, hit up Chinatown for dim sum. Or if you're there in the evening, go to the best Sichuan Chinese restaurant in the country (or second-best, depending on your source), Fuloon in Malden. http://www.seriouseats.com/…

If you're deciding on your choices at dim sum based on what's healthy, you're doing it wrong.

And in other failure-to-proofread news… the Slants' "copyright applications" have not been denied. This case is about trademarks, not copyrights. Totally different things.

This sounds like the author just doesn't know how to make a good turkey, especially given that he apparently didn't realize that tenting it in foil over a pool of water was going to lead to soggy skin. I'm sure it's tasty, but I'd put good money that my thanksgiving turkey is better than this one (I smoke it, then

Yeah, Granny's got pretty damn good ears.

Torch wouldn't work - if the skin's flabby that means the moisture hasn't been fully driven off and/or the fat hasn't rendered. Torching it at high heat will just burn the outside. Flabby skin needs time and dry heat to drive out the moisture and render the fat. Taking the foil off is the way to go here.

Same. I was in the "I like Bernie's positions, but someone who calls himself a socialist will never get elected" camp. Turns out that someone who makes fun of disabled people, admits assaulting women, and insults pretty much every minority group can get elected, so apparently the public is less picky about these

He was never the same after Ferris Bueller took that day off.

Here's the secret: don't walk away from the stove. Cook it over medium-low heat, and stand there watching it. When the bottom side gets browned, flip it over and continue until the other side is browned. The whole thing takes 5 minutes, it's not a major time commitment.

What's the name of his other leg?

Same here. Boulder, CO is lousy with Mattress Firms right now. Apparently they ran out of space in their main location, and instead of moving they've just been snapping up other storefronts as they become available.

Apple already went down the copy protection path at iTunes, and had to remove it because people hated it so much (and they have the option to pirate content that isn't copy protected). Can't imagine they're going to try that tactic again.

The issues you're talking about are inherent to open headphones - they're designed to let ambient noise in, so that you can use them and still hear what's going on around you. That's actually what I like about Apple's earbuds, I can wear them when biking, walking around, etc. and as long as I keep the volume

Love Toban Djan, but only after I realized that the stuff you can find in most American markets is crap - I'm looking at you, Lee Kum Kee. It uses fermented soybeans and is almost inedibly salty, while the real thing uses fermented broad beans (aka fava beans) and is much more balanced. Totally different flavor.
