A bit off-topic, but I recently brined chicken parts before I fried them. It made all the difference in the world. My fried chicken was always too dry. Brining fixed that, and it added seasoning throughout. Brine your poultry. Thanksgiving turkey is so much better brined.

I’ll give it another shot but I usually get pork and chicken right using the eye test. Really, I just need a GOOD thermometer.

Thermapen FTW

This is the correct answer. I got a bluetooth thermometer for Christmas one year (classic in-laws don’t know what to get you gift) and it improved my grilling 1500%. Pull that shit off right before it hits the desired temp, let it rest, and you’re gold.

I have two. Both stink. I have yet to undercook anything or serve hockey pucks. My eyes and a knife to open the meat a little work well.

Racism? At an Indians game?

He should have stayed with Ole Missus and none of thia would have happened.

I feel like it’s way too late in the game to introduce Dragonbinder.

If they were going to introduce Dragonbinder, it should have been at the…

missing the obvious, he found Gendry floating on the open sea and will offer him as a present to legitimize her reign as queen.

I’ve got some bad news for you....

Euron Greyjoy is fucking ridiculous. I can’t tell if it’s the writing, the directing or the acting, or a combination of all three, but I want to throw something at the screen every time he’s on it, because he completely takes me out of the show. After last year’s utter absurdity (“I will get those meddling…

I thought Scat Packs were a Mopar thing.

You know nothing, Claire Low(er).

And they would have gotten away with it too, if it weren’t for those meddling kids!

I should note that I have never actually seen an episode of Dukes of Hazard. Oops!

Eh.. What was the stat that Atlas said 3-4 times during the fight? I think it was something like its been 5 years since Pac won by KO. I get that Horn was bigger, but Manny lost his fastball a while ago.
