I love my charcoal grills (2 Webers and a BGE). This year I rescued an old gasser from the dumpster (couldn’t bear to see the waste), and for the cost of an afternoon’s cleaning and a new regulator ($25), I cannot be happier with the flexibility afforded by having both! It’s a Broil King Signet, which Amazing Ribs…

I read the comments, and a member of the original family wrote that in 1980, when it was built, it was three dunes away from the ocean. That’s a good 15-20 minute walk.

Interesting.

Sure you can. You can also fry them using a culinary torch. But I don’t see the benefit here. They’re soggy so you can only use them in a couple dishes, and you don’t save any pots and pans because you still have to clean the one that you cook them in. It just seems easier to scramble some eggs.

Oh, man. I have been stuck on that exact stretch of road, under those exact same squall conditions. It is extremely treacherous. The road is not flat, it is hilly, and you can be completely stopped, with your foot jammed on the brakes, and your car will be sliding off the road on the ice.

Welcome back!

Naw, the tomatoes will be fine. That’s going to be a pretty decent homestyle chili.

Nothing is going to work until it tastes good again.

Thank you, I didn’t know that. I found it, I’ll read it.

How come it never comes up that self driving cars are the worst of both worlds? It’s all the expense of ownership with none of the fun of driving.

No North Dallas Forty?

Damn right.

I tagged this recipe two years ago, and finally got to it today. It makes 3 dozen HUGE cookies that are delicious. 

I tagged this recipe a couple years ago, and finally got around to making it.

If you live near a Wegman’s in the Northeast of the US, they sell what is usually American or Australian (depending) Wagyu strip steaks. Right now it is $70/lb in the butcher’s case. But when it doesn’t sell, it goes out in the regular meat section with a big orange “REDUCED FOR QUICK SALE” sticker. It’s usually…

I respect this. However, my style doesn’t have the patience for overly ornate presentations, I would just make a lasagna using all those ingredients. But if you served it to me I’d ask for seconds.

Those fucking popcorn balls. Horrible combo of barely sweet and barely salty that gets stuck in your teeth.

Sausage and egg burrito meal. Take the hash brown, break it in half longwise, and put half in each burrito along with the sauce. You’re welcome.

For anyone who thinks this is complicated... it’s not. It was probably harder to write about it. You really only got two things: prepping the meat, and prepping the grill. Prep this, prep that, then set that sucker on fire and wait. Thats all there is to it.
