    I think I'm going to go ahead and order one to make exactly what he's doing for poppers and other top water baits using foam. I thought about getting an airbrush machine, but that's a little overkill for the type of stuff I do fly tying. I know it's apples and oranges, but I honestly thought...

    Man I read this and the 40K thread, just because I find the game and the lore so fascinating. I bought a 600pt necron army back right after they came out when I was in college because a buddy of mine who is big into it convinced me to drop some money. Played two games, and then he moved away...

    I haven't broken out the Anova in ages. Honestly can't remember the last time I sous-vided, I think maybe a couple of tri-tips for a get together with some buddies where I didn't want to have to monitor shit. In that aspect it's wonderful. I do reverse sear all the time, but I do it with...

    Farscape

    Used to always record Farscape and Lexx back to back on Friday nights with the VCR timer if I was working or going out with friends back in college. Sci-fi used to be pretty good about replaying the two primetime shows Saturday morning as well. I've got all the Farscape DVDs in a box...

    Hahaha, good ole RonCo. There was an old couple that our family was very good friends with in Charleston that always used one. They used to make pork roast in it, and it always turned out delicious. Enjoy your birds, I'm sure they'll turn out great.

    I haven't done that in a long time. I need to get a rotisserie option for the grill. What are you using? Growing up we always used to do a lot of cornish game hens, especially for Thanksgiving. Mom used to always do it just because it was easy but it was always fun to have your own little...

    No it doesn't. The crab was already cooked and just mixed with the other ingredients. Vacuum packed and froze it immediately when I realized how much I was going to make for that particular meal or two, and how much we had left over. Just need to add a little bit more dairy and a few other...

    What's everyone making for Christmas? Happy to hear new ideas and other inspiration to maybe add to my menu. We're using uncooked leftover crab dip from the last batch, cocktail shrimp, and charcuterie plate for Christmas Eve. Some type of salad or snacking vegetables, too Gonna do a prime...

    Same here. German family. Grew up eating cabbage all the time because it's cheap and last forever in the fridge. Wife e doesn't necessarily care for it, but if I make it she's got to eat it. New Year's is coming up and I always do Cajun Black eyed peas and rice, smothered cabbage, and fry...

    The benefit is if that's your only grill you can use it for both smoking as well as doing great searing on something quick. That's not to say that you can't do that with just a regular kettle rule but it really does make it easier. I posted tons of photos in the thread of me having used it...

    That actually sounds like it turned out fantastic though. We don't ever make a lot of pot pies or anything with crust mixed with savory. My grandmother always used to make pasties when we were growing up and my mom still makes them, I've just never tried my hand at it.

    Amazon has the Slow N Sear for the Weber kettle on sale right now for $90 vs $130. It's a great price if you're in the market for one. I love mine and I think I paid full when I picked it up. Totally worth the money, though. Slow ‘N Sear® Deluxe for 22" Charcoal Grill from SnS Grills...

    Makes me want to make the Grady Spears Dr.Pepper cake. Basic chocolate sheet cake but probably the most moist cake I've had. The soda doesn't make it taste funky. Perfect with just plain old vanilla ice cream on top. I've got his cookbook somewhere and I'll have to try to find it. Pretty...

    I don't shop there regularly, but we have one across the road from the HEB, our normal grocery store. I agree that they charge way to much for certain items, but if you know the going rates, they've managed to keep their cost competitive for some staples skyrocketing with inflation. They're...

    Haha, if we didn't use the bacon grease my mom used to do the same thing and put it on the dog kibble. The dogs always got table scraps. When you finish a meal all the stuff that wasn't going to go for leftovers one on to a designated plate and then down into the food bowls that went. We...

    Yeah I think the only time I've ever had soda in the last number of years is if I'm traveling for work and I stop at a Whataburger, and as opposed to getting an iced tea or a water I'll get a diet soda of some sort. I never buy it and it's never kept around the house. The wife got me drinking...

    Hummus is great, especially if you've got tahini and the pantry. We always keep cans of chickpeas floating around, and just make it ourselves, the flavor with whatever seasonings or pressure herbs we've got floating around. Use up whatever leftover raw vegetables you've got, and it makes a...

    We don't cook bacon very often but when we do I always round up the grease after cooking it in the oven over foil, and into a small jar it goes. Use it to flavor sauces or fry up whatever. Parents always did that constantly growing up and they used to just keep it out in a container sitting...

    I'll get a diet Coke or a diet Dr pepper every now and then, but normally it's iced tea, unsweetened with a splash of sweetened. If it isn't that I'm drinking water.

    Yeah, he really is one of the only guys out there making great shows. I got to watch Midnight Mass this past year, and it's probably one of the best shows I've ever seen. I trust him to at least be true to the source material, but then again, you never know how much pressure the suits are...
