In Dalian China, I ordered what appeared to be mutton from the picture and accompanying context on the menu. When it arrived in an earthen vessel and I removed the lid, it looked like a sort of braised meat in a brown sauce - not entirely unappetizing. When I put the first piece in my mouth, I knew something was…

WHY ISN'T THERE CREAM IN THE PICTURE AT THE TOP THERE IS CREAM IN THE RECIPE BUT NOT IN THE PICTURE ALSO MORE PICTURES!!1!

I go skiing with my three older brothers every ear and they always insist on me making (pretty much) this same recipe. (After burning 3000 calories shredding some sweet pow pow it's not nearly as gluttonous.) A couple of variations: I've usually reduced the cream by 1/4-1/3 over about 20 minutes and added some…

If the language you are speaking is the same dialect spoken when I waited tables, I hear you, but I've never heard of a Canadian hockey fan.

I hope you started this Saturday's post in 1998 big guy. Guest writers are for babies and Magary.

I have to say, after reading Funbag for a while, I expected Drew to sound like Anderson Cooper being attacked by puppies, but he sounds more like Keith Olbermann trying to pick up a cougar. (I caught his segment on NPR on friday (?)) He came across as witty, smart, and interesting. Then again, there's no proof it…

Thirded.

You can get Vicodin by burning your hand!? I thought you had to go to Tijuana. This is outstanding news. Unrelated: any tips on faking a third degree burn?

Cherry? CHERRY!??1! Let me get you a spoon so you can eat my ass. Apparently you like things that taste like asses.

"You tell the SEC when they can learn to read and write, then they can figure out what we're doing."

Excellent point. Unrelated: you ruined my Saturday last weekend. Bastard.

As a point of information, an $8 filet is a perfectly fine piece of filet if you don't pay some dude to cut up a tenderloin (who will not first remove the chain and silver skin). The trick is to buy a whole tenderloin and break it down yourself. 7-8 oz will end up costing you less than $8 unless you buy prime, in…

Thanks for defending me Albert. If you're not working on a book you are as insane as your writing is good.

An attempt at defending myself: I like a dry aged bone-in ribeye as much as the next guy, but my affinity for filet has as much to do with not wanting to eat a 1600 calorie piece of meat as it does the taste of beef. A filet done right is pretty fantastic. (Not quite as fantastic, but close enough.) Also, I buy whole…

Filet OP here. Love the response, but have to say I feel like an idiot now. You have covered the searing technique at length and I guess I was thinking that wasn't the best for a filet. I'm an idiot, but thanks for that. Also, I made your crab cakes the other night as a test run for mother's day and they were…

I had the same thought...there was nothing in there to indicate his race. THAT'S RAYCESS.

All good ideas. I have to share that my girlfriend's bike was stolen out of the parking lot where we live a few months ago and the next day I checked Craigslist and there it was, in pictures of high enough quality to compare the welds to shots we had taken earlier. (Was definitely hers.) Arranged a meetup, told him to…

he's also got an awful chest tattoo. I really enjoyed seeing this douchebag cry when Vandy wiped their ass with his uniform this year.

Oh holy shit this is fantastic +1

Good decision.
