    Gravy's Cooking Thread

    20 lb fried turkey was a success, although I overcooked it a little. I read 3.5 minutes per pound so I set the timer for 70 minutes. I checked it at 50 minutes and the breast was only at 121 degrees, so I left it in the full 70 minutes and I think I should have pulled it at 60. The skin was...

    Trying to see the edge of a road with fresh snow on it is brutal, especially if it's overcast. All you see is white road and white ditch and white on the other side of the ditch. I don't know how something like lidar would do with that but human eyes are pretty shitty for that use in my...

    Not long ago I drove through a 4-way that I knew was there and have been through hundreds of times because my windshield was dirty and I was driving into the setting sun. It's a big problem for non-autonomous drivers as well. Another time I have endangered myself and others is when I leave...

    Oh, one thing I learned on my practice bird is that you should put the dogs in the house while you're frying. We had 3 dogs out there and they just took turns trying to commit suicide by bathing themselves in hot oil.

    A guy I knew in college used to say "Pizza is like sex. Some is better than others, but there's no such thing as bad pizza". I still think this holds true for pizza but as an older man I realize that there is such a thing as bad sex.

    Recent media issue I found, all the podcasts I listen to are liberal cucks, probably b/c

    We're just going to have to give them a month or two and they will get over it with the possible exception of NPR. Leo Laporte, a liberal himself, did his best to keep the millennial tech reporters he had on the show last week from turning the entire show into a 2 hour hissy fit about Trump...

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    Not False. HAHA! But seriously, you're wrong. They are in the hands of the military, but under control of civilians, by law, and their design, manufacture, and upkeep is done by the DoE. The military only gets to carry them around. Civilian Control of Atomic Energy

    Science!! Fucking magnets, how do they work?

    A slight correction. All nuclear weapons are under the DoE and that is the #1 mission of the national labs.

    I'm going for it and frying a 22 pounder. Bought a 44 quart stainless steel pot at Cabelas. It's going to be awesome. If I don't post again after Thursday know that I went out in a blaze of glory.

    I think the best way to deal with lane splitting motorcycles is to just kill them immediately since it's going to happen sooner or later anyway.

    So this may be the dumbest question in the history of this thread, but I haven't had a console since my PS3 died like 3 years ago. I live in a rural area and my only option is satellite internet which has a monthly data cap of 14GB and the speed varies between 10 mbps at 3AM and .1mbps at 8...

    Went on a road trip the beginning of this week and went crazy on fast food. My favorite thing I tried that I hadn't had before was the Arby's buffalo chicken sliders. Those little things are tasty. Tried the bacon king as well and I liked it but not as much as it sounded like some on here...

    I'm in Montana and we just have one rut. I realize there are too many does, but that is a direct result of them not letting them shoot any does for the last two seasons.

    I think he gets a little carried away with the safety shit but obviously it's dangerous. The main things are to make sure the turkey is fully defrosted, not put in too much oil, and I always turn the flame off when lifting the bird into or out of the oil.

    I'm frying a turkey for this year as well. Did a 10 pounder last weekend as a test run and even though I fucked up a couple things it turned out amazing. There is just no competition with how moist the breast is with a fried turkey. I brined it for like 8 hours and in my opinion it was right...

    Well, you couldn't be more wrong. The real Dairy Queens (not the ones that just have ice cream and hot dogs) are top tier fast food. That is if you get a burger and not some faggy woman meal like a buffalo chicken wrap. Also, I know you guys are exaggerating with the fast food diarrhea...

    I wonder if they will bring back the auction eventually. I think it's been a couple seasons since they have one since everybody just waits for an advantage and ruins the bit.

    It used to be the Dark Knight, particularly the sequence where they flip the truck. Now I think I would have to go with Mad Max: Fury Road.
