  1. Filet's with an orzo salad. Steaks were in the water bath for 90 minutes @ 126F, then seared on the Weber over the Slow n Sear for about 30 seconds on each side. Neither of us were fond of the orzo salad. If we do it again it will need major tweaking. But the steaks made up for it. Tender as they get. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  2. Happy birthday my friend! Enjoy the marathon!!
  3. Signed up for SONY Playstation Vue to hopefully replace Dish Network for our TV viewing pleasure. Dish has gone to hell with their latest software update, and frankly their cost is pretty insane. PS Vue is less than half the price, and we get 90% of our normally watched channels including local CBS, ABC, NBC and Fox channels. Unlimited cloud DVR with 28 day show retention. We're running it on a Gen 4 Apple TV downstairs and an Amazon Fire TV in the bedroom. The guide is weird, but we'll get used to it. We are on a 5 day free trial so we'll see how it goes.
  4. So, after a 6 hour slow cook, decent results for a first try. I had to mess with temp quite a bit, and eventually removed the TTT and continued with just the slow n sear. We also discovered that St. Louis ribs may not have been the best choice. But in the end we had good bark, a decent smoke ring and smoke flavor. Not a bad first outing.

  5. First off, it's a pig. Debbie's brother lives in St. Louis. He raised it from a pup.
  6. First run with the Weber, Slow n Sear and tip top temp. St. Louis ribs seemed a safe choice. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. Ate at one of Stephanie Izard's restaurants tonight with Debbie, two of her sisters and her brother-in-law. Restaurant is Girl and the Goat. Chef Izard is a James Beard award winner and Iron Chef. All of the following were shared plates and we ate too fast to get pics of the onion focaccia with house made giardinera and house made Caesar dressing. Roasted beet salad Wood fired oysters Squash blossom crab Rangoon (best we'd ever had) Goat chorizo flatbread Roasted shishito peppers Beef tongue with masa chips ( dedicated to my Dad who loved beef tongue. Tonight's was tender and delicious) Tempura soft shell crab with corn Escargot ravioli. So bloody delicious. Pig Face! (It's under the egg. And fucking awesome!) Blueberry bourbon baba Caramel corn and malt balls. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  11. Spent Friday, Saturday and Sunday replacing the deteriorating wood decking with composite. Thanks to my bro-in-laws for doing 80% of the work, the deck lives again. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  13. Anyone looking for a current 13" Air? I bought one after I killed my MBP, but missed the retina screen. So I bought a new non-touchbar pro. So I have an Air up for grabs. If you're interested, lets talk.
  14. Two good races so far, and today the news that Alonso will race in the Indy 500 in May. He'll miss Monaco, but I wonder if he is setting up the next phase of his career, ala Nigel Mansel.
  15. I am such a cunt for missing this. Happy belated Birthday my brother!

  18. So sorry I missed this Steve. You really are one of my favorite human beings and I am so glad you've started another orbit around the sun. Debbie sends her love too. Happy Birthday!
  19. Arcada Theater to see The Musical Box, a 70's Genesis recreation band, actually endorsed by Gabriel, Hackett (who has played guitar with them) and Phil Collins. Tonight they are reproducing the Selling England By The Pound. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  20. RIP John Wetton. Been a fan since King Crimson but this shows off his bass acumen. Viva Roxy Music.
