    He tried different things like injecting tallow, basting it on before the wrap, shit like that. It's been a while since I watched him but I think he found he got the best results by actually smoking the tallow in a foil tray while the brisket was going. Apply that at the wrap phase, and he felt...

    Next time you smoke one post pics and let us know how it turned out. Really interested in the whole tallow stuff. I watched his whole big series on trying different beef tallow methods, and I definitely think the next time I cook a brisket I'm going to use it.

    Yeah sip and feast has been great. Just nice simple Italian, and it's not a flashy production. Not another cooking show is it okay too, he's got a lot of pretty decent recipes, but he's a little bit of a New York liberal. Guy has skills though and his recipes for solid so whatever. Pitmaster...

    @Kriptini has you covered. After you beat Radan, you just go talk to the tournament master who I think is sitting in the church.

    I mean that's a good video but he's not making corny Chinese dad jokes. I did subscribe to the channel because I like to learn about cooking, but chef John he is not.

    Yeah Jeremy from mad scientist BBQ is pretty good. I think he used to be a chemistry teacher. But we all know who the king of cooking channels is, and that's Chef Fucking John! I do like chef Jean Pierre though.

    His original sous vide everything channel used to be pretty fun to watch when it was him, Ninja, and the guy with the glasses sitting around having work lunch. Was at least authentic and just fun to see their reactions about things that they made, plus the goofy music every time they sear the...

    Man it sounds like it was a smashing success. I'll be curious to see what you think of the 45-day versus the 60. Enjoy.

    Is that the 65 day? What does it taste like? Inquiring minds want to know. Regardless that's awesome.

    Thank you, sir. Probably just need to level it up, and start deploying it. Probably doesn't help I've got an unoptimized build, but it's been working so far. Just a mishmash of strength and faith but enough intelligence to cast certain spells and what have you. I literally just been trying...

    Caelid is probably my most hated area I've been to. I went in there at one point prior to the lake area, and got blasted. Went and completed the lake, and finally came back and started clearing my way through it. Just all of the trash mobs are so fucking annoying. I also don't like the music...

    I know it does that, I'm just wondering if it will pull from all of your memorized spells, or just the one that you literally have selected. I tried to screwing around with it and it just doesn't seem to do a lot other than attack and run around. I know at one point they nerfed it, and I...

    I just got the mimic tear last night after working my way through the eternal city, which was a really cool zone. I do have a question about it. Will it use any memorized spells you have or just the one that you currently have selected upon summoning?

    I'm not even close to fighting her, and from reading the forums and seeing how much of a bitch she is, this will probably be my plan B. That guy's videos are pretty funny even if you don't use his cheese strategies. Gives you a good idea of how to manipulate fights based on terrain and what...

    Stayed up to 3:30 last night. Latest I've stayed up playing a game in a while. Have been working my way through Caelid, and killed Radan in a couple of tries. The castle was bugged and didn't have any monsters other than the two lions, but figured out how to fix that and went in and work my...

    So do you guys use or stack every buff possible while you're just running around, or mainly just for bosses? I just been watching different build videos and everything is so reliant on various buffs from sorceries or incantations, can I find that most of the time I'm only firing those things...

    I guess that's why I was frustrated that I couldn't get his shop. I wonder why you lose out on that one particular item.

    Does that screw up any other quest for the other NPCs?

    I think I did the same. I'm going back after a different phases of the game to see if I can buy anything, and no dice. I'm not quite sure why he didn't open his shop. What other quest do you have to complete to fix that?

    I know.... That was my favorite cheese spell for abusing terrain, and just sending in my homing swarm to whittle monsters down. That are using a summon to distract while I just run around the boss room shooting out the flies.

    Based on the second trailer, looks like a Conan remake, but done right, just not Conan. Still looks fantastic, probably one of the only reason I'm excited to see, but based on some of the scenes in the trailer I wonder if you could sit there and just track a list of similar scenes between the...

    Porchetta turned out great. Made roasted garlic mashed potatoes, white bean salad, and caprese. Just got to pick up some good hard rolls to make sandwiches with the leftovers now.

    I'm no @Foler , but I don't mind black licorice. You be surprised though, it's not a licorice taste when combined with the pork. The wet rub has garlic, lemon zest, Rosemary, sage, thyme, and lots of salt and pepper. I also put red chili flakes in just for a little bit of spice. Part of the...

    Porchetta prepped and dry brining. Got it made yesterday, and planning on roasting Sunday, but heavy pressure to cook it tomorrow. I prefer to dry brine it at least for 3 days, but tomorrow will be close enough based on how it's looking in the fridge. Haven't made one in over a year and I'm...

    I've gotten the twins armor from the guy from round table hold, I haven't taken it off for 50 or 60 levels. I've been wondering whether I'll finally come across something I'm willing to switch out to. I know the bull goat armor is supposed to be the highest poise in the game, but I don't...

    I thought this was a pretty good episode. When they brought up the Chinese pandering, made me remember the stupid arks that the CCP was building in the 2012 movie. I'd be curious to go back and look at his other films to see how much was tied to that market.

    Finally sat down this afternoon and worked my way through the Caria Manor area. Fuck those hand monsters. The rest of the place wasn't too bad and one shot the boss, but that lower area is a royal pain in the ass. Still a lot of fun, no I've got a new quest line to work on. I'm assuming I...

    There's a spirit ash of a rot dog that'll hit him with a pretty good DOT. You just have to kind of keep him occupied long enough for the dot to take effect, and all you have to do is just run around and stay alive and he'll slowly die. You can take pot shots at him with a bow and I'll sit...

    No it's pretty shitty. I just kept upgrading the horn bow, and put the great shot Ash of war on it. Changing out the arrows to some of the special ones seems to be at least be little bit more helpful, especially for a bigger Target. I'm going strength faith but I've got enough dex to use...

    Hell yeah. It's become a mini game of what monsters I can abuse with a bow and figuring out terrain and distances that allow me to sit there and just whittle them down. Those tree guardians are one of the easier monsters if you just sit there and shoot them. Just have to watch out for the...

    Kite him around the tree with a bow and arrow. Just stay on your horse and sit there and take pot shots. That's what I did for at least the first couple that I killed now at this point I'm high enough level where I can go in and melee them but I'm level 100 ish.
