Sear or reverse sear, that’s how I usually approach my beef. This whole idea that my grilling has to look like it’s pan fried does nothing for me

Cool Ranch. Unless it’s being used to make the shell of my Taco Supreme, in which case Nacho Cheese.

“...flipping every minute...” If you’re opening your grill every minute to flip a steak how much time are you going to add to your cooking just to satisfy your desire for a homogeneous appearance?

Two reasons why your suggestion doesn’t mean much here:
muttons complained of chicken breasts drying out. Introducing more water to the meat reduces the chances of the meat getting too dry.
Dilution of the flavor isn’t an issue with chicken breasts, a cut of the bird not knowing as being very flavorful in the first…

If it makes you feel any better, know that Norton’s all right now.

Bradley’s getting pissed that the vans are now priced out of his range.

Let me introduce you to one of my good grilling buddies: brine. Half a gallon of water, 1/4 cup each of salt and sugar. Let the breasts hang out in there for an hour and you’re good. So far every chicken breast recipe that I need to toss in the over whole can get the grill treatment. Even (especially!) my wife’s…

I’ve done the “Remove all husk but the inner layer and grill for 10 minutes” method. I’ve done the “Peel back to get to the silk, remove, put the husk back, soak in some salty water and grill for 20 minutes” method. Neither of which really did anything for me. You’ve had success just soaking an unopened ear of corn,…

That navigation integration sounds like something Audi was looking to do a few years back. Try to map the most fuel efficient route as an option.

Why will Walter be remembered as a better player than Barry? Barry played at least half of his games in climate controlled environments on consistent fields. Walter played at least half of his games in that God awful patch of ground called Soldier Field, where weather would vary from quarter to quarter. Walter did…

It can go to an arbitrator. In Jimmy Graham’s case the arbitrator ended up looking at all of his snaps in the season, measured how far he lined up away from the tackle, and determined that Graham spent more snaps close enough to the tackle than away (I can’t remember the distance measurement).

For some reason the dealership puts a bag over my rear wiper every time I bring the car in. You could be seeing cars that came from getting service.

Chick-Fil-A will knock around twenty cents off if you ask for a sandwich to be made without the cheese. Probably the only place I know of that will always lower the price if you ask for fewer ingredients.

I still miss my TDI Passat. Chicago to Niagara Falls at 49.5MPG@PSL+5? In Chicagoland the times of the year I do most of my driving is when diesel is $0.30-$0.50/gal less than gas. And unlike what David was suggesting finding a station selling diesel is pretty easy around here. Gas Buddy wasn’t used to find diesel, it…

Were you able to get over there?

Please tell me that you honestly believe that sushi restaurants in San Diego, San Francisco, Seattle, Miami, Savannah, Norfolk, Wilmington, and New York City are all getting their salmon and tuna from boats bringing in fresh fish every day?

I was predicting a rather boring-looking stack of book boxes on a pallet. Since that’s what I have to look forward to at the end of the month.

Kevin, if your day tomorrow does not include a trip to the 7-11 in Streeterville (Ontario St. and McClurg Ct.) then you’re doing yourself a disservice. The store was reno’ed a few years ago, upscale enough to fit into the neighborhood. The Slurpee machine there is one of those wide, eight or twelve choice setups.

Dude, if you’re going to go, go all in. Wait for the Audi Q7 V12 TDI to become importable, then bring one over.

Zed’s dead, baby. Zed’s dead.
