    Hey but if I just watch the DIY channel, and if I make a pilgrimage to Magnolia in Waco, I can become a house flipper, and gain immediate construction experience overnight. The money will just start rolling in...

    Cyberpunk 2077

    I just bought the game the other day, and haven't had a chance to sit down and really get into it. What kind of performance can I expect with these specs. I've got a 27-in Dell monitor, and I only run it at 1080p. Had planned on really putting the time in during the Christmas holiday...

    It did if you were doing boneless loin chops. I was just pulling stuff out of the freezer, and had some nice 1.5-in thick bone-in chops at my disposal. I've made the recipe before with pounded out meat where it's more like a schnitzel, problem is you run the risk of it drying out. These thick...

    Gravy's Cooking Thread

    Did some breaded pork chops the other night. Nothing fancy, kind of a riff on my great grandma's recipe for breaded veal. Just simple mashed taters, steamed veggies, and white mushroom gravy to top it off. Haven't made the recipe in years and forgot how much I enjoyed it. Pork chops were...

    Did "Japanese" Surf'nTurf yesterday. Wagyu Tri-tip from HEB I found on sale. Was cut into 2-3" thick logs. Was worried about it being broken down, but the sections looked like I could manage slices against the grain still. Marbling looked fantastic, so I figured I'd give it a shot. Ginger...

    That totally makes sense, and I appreciate the professional knowledge you brought to the conversation. However, my steaks tasted great and everyone else enjoyed them. If I'm correct I think you're a chef or work at a restaurant. I don't work in the food industry. I may loosely tent my...

    I do sous vide and in the original post I stated as much. I find that sometimes dependent upon the the cut and length it's in the bath that sometimes it fucks with the texture. I don't notice it as much, but my woman does. I honestly enjoy reverse searing with the Slow-n-Sear. I can get a...

    Of course. At least 5-10 mins loosely tented in foil. I can't help it if my steaks are still juicier than fuck. I tend to dry brine them at least for an hour if not overnight, or maybe it's because I try to buy quality meat. Those particular steaks may have been cut prematurely because we...

    You can get a good crust on the grill, just need the right tools. Picked up a Slow-n-Sear for my Weber kettle, and have been more than happy with the results. Mesquite lump charcoal and a bit of fruit wood. I'll sous vide sometimes for thicker cuts and things like Tri-tip, but it's easy to...

    The Eddyline boats are nice. They're fast and way next to nothing if you're car topping. Look pretty good if your main purpose is just paddle around / recreation. if you're going to do any heavy fishing it's probably not the boat you want. I think they make some sort of angler kayak though...

    I just picked up Shadow Keep on sale this week via Steam. I haven't played since the black market or whatever that was came out. Looks like a ton of content is getting shelved with the new expansion on the horizon. Any words of wisdom for someone getting back into the game? There seems to...

    Finished watching this after dinner. Quite possibly their best episode all year for BOTW. A lot out of that is the epic shityness of the movie, but it's fun with them just focusing on Rich and his utter bewilderment.

    @Foler all the bigger brands are sporting some form of pedal drive now. The big difference between the bicycle style and mirage drive is the ability to go in reverse. Older mirage drives are stuck in forward only, but they've got a new version that flips the orientation of the fins. It looks...

    I've not ever seen one of those, but there's similar concepts out there. There's the BlueSky 360, a catamaran hull with a peddle drive system. I think they are partnered with Jackson for the peddle system. Shit starts getting into boat territory, and just seems impractical.

    It seems that there are a lot of innovative watercraft like that coming out now. I was out paddling the other weekend and saw a family with two inflatable paddle boards. I think they may have been Hobies, but I wasn't able to get a good look. But both the parents were standing up on them...

    @Foler as someone else previously mentioned, a lot of kayak shops do demo days, but they'll also rent you a boat for 24 hours. I know AustinKayak does this, but last I heard rentals we're off the table due to KungFlu bullshit, and that might be the same with demo days. But if you can find a...
