@Okanagancook @JoNorvelleWalker Is evercrisp like Trisol? It doesn't google effectively

This happens to us all one day. My sincere condolences.

@StCirq You are lucky indeed! We've lived in an old old house for 25 years. There are still surprises LOL , though fewer and fewer

@rotuts There's a Bourdain episode in Hawaii with PT

Now THAT is vile stuff

Spam musubi. Typically spam is fried with a splash of teriyaki and served with soy sauce. Kind of like spam sushi roll. A nice golf snack

pan sauces for sure made while the meat is resting apple/dijon/cream/garlic for pork.... port/garlic/dijon/cream for red meats....lingonberry/dijon/stock /starch thickener

Indeed. Hawaii is the largest consumer of spam. Its very obvious there. The Burger King on Maui has a spam breakfast sandwich.

Yes indeed!

Why would one ?

Cooks Illustrated discusses SV at some length in the March/April issue. Nice!

It would. People can't metabolize inulin. Gut bacteria take over and hilarity ensues. The native am. may have known when to harvest and how to prepare it safely though.

Wouldn't hurt to put some liquid smoke in there too

@Shelby The darker color in the center of the meat is where the brine hadn't penetrated yet. It moves inward about a cm/day, so a big chunk will take days to brine or cure completely. Which meat was bad tasting...the cured or the uncured?

@IndyRob my apologies. It was the gin talking.

I have no frigging clue what it cost/lb two months ago. A big ass tenderloin was about $95. It was tasty beef and not the dreck that the local supermarket charges much more for and much much less than the extortionate local butcher. Sorry for the imprecision, I wasnt taking notes.

If Mississippi and similar wet states would make it attractive, the growers would show up

Costco is a big win for us. Christmas dinner alone with two beef tenderloins pays for the membership. Lamb chops are less than half the supermarket price. Sirloin is still high quality even If strip steaks have gotten crappy. Salmon is almost cheap. Henry's dog biscuits and bully sticks are half the going rate. Golf balls good enough for the early rounds are better than half price. Then there's all the other stuff. If only they still had aged Gouda

Is veal parm a schnitzel for the purposes of the challenge?

Peas kill me...so that works out.

The Strip steak part of the porterhouse?

We just ate a ton of nachos. And then ate some more. Beautiful game.

I had a grilled kampachi in soubise with charred greens and tiny slivers of kumquat recently. It was the perfect foil for the richness of the sauce.

@rotuts It was a good game that the refs pretty much stayed out of. The Eagles story this year has been pretty compelling.

Luis, your English is fine. I'd love to read your stuff.
