Yesssss octopus

Octopus would be nice, it is a tougher meat that takes a lot of time to get a product you would want to eat.

Bison is also more common now and AWESOME when cooked correctly.

How come you don’t like chili, Carlos? Is it the cumin funk? Is it something else like the beans? And what chili are we talking about? Not Chef Boyardee right? (Does C.B. make chili? I really have no idea.)

Hey ya’ll, could you please stop sharing so many concourse stories to the deadspin main page? K thnkz

So throwing away long-respected journalistic principles, whereby people may tell you things they otherwise wouldn’t/couldn’t in exchange for confidentiality, is OK as long as you don’t like the guy? We’ve become a nation entirely overtaken by feelings.

This. All of this! I really want to know how well it would work out to pre-freeze a bunch of meals in the bag and then just toss it straight into the sousvide.

There was just one dog but she slept through the whole thing somehow.

You are wrong. The Lifehack gods have spoken.

Bacon-wrapped gator! Problem solved.

That’s a good suggestion- when I clean it I usually just look for dust or hair that could be stuck in inner workings- I’ve never greased it up.

I just checked where I live. There’s a reported Weedle on the other side of town (~10.5 miles). There’s a reported Abra 40 miles away, and a Charizard that was reported at a freeway exit 60 miles away about half an hour ago.
