    Hamburger meat???

    Indeed all efforts to force country of origin labels were defeated by the minions. I foresaw a price crisis 6 months ago so I invested in HEB ground chuck. Fingers crossed that I panic bought enough to last me through this dangerous time beef safety wise. If not I’ll dig out the grinder and buy...

    Hamburger meat???

    Bit of a difference between country’s and cultures that sell very high quality meats and a third world hell hole beef mogul’s semi rancid freezer burned parasite infested, antibiotic and steroid laden culled offerings. China and Japan (If memory serves) Refused delivery because his mystery beef...

    Hamburger meat???

    First the article contains deeply disturbing info which is very political. Second a few moments on a search engine would reveal all. One interesting FACT is that the billionaire Meat mogul in the mix has been convicted paying many millions in bribes to not do proper beef inspections on his...

    Hamburger meat???

    I just read that the beef that's being imported is supposed to be added/blended with domestic beef to form burgers used at fast food joints. The article also stated that it may or may not have been through inspection or tested for micro critters harmful to humans. In addition it has been frozen...

    Brisket Issues

    I used to have the same problem but I did two things that finally solved all my issues. First, I raised the meat higher in the cook chamber by placing the meat on a cooling rack with legs extended which took care of the radiant heat that was overcooking the underside. Next I bought a Vevor...

    Best burger cooking trick..

    I grill my hamburgers for exactly 3 minutes a side and the results are always perfect, as long as the fire is not too large or too small, and I was reluctant to try something new. We buy (or used to anyway) 5 lbs of 80/20 ground chuck, press them into 6 inch discs and freeze them with parchment...

    So, what do you do with "leftover" brisket? Brisket Chili of course!!!

    What is this "leftover brisket" of which you speak? I have heard of a vac sealer machine and a deep freeze...

    I know some of you have muscle cars, trucks, Harley's, or speed boats...lets see'um!!!

    I've owned (and sold) a small fleet of muscle cars. Based on today's prices, I sold too soon and for too little! Still dream about my deep blue 66 GTO tri-power four speed.

    Weber Kettle - Rotisserie Chicken

    It's a great buy, I love mine! I'm going to try the direct over the coals method, I've been doing a perimeter briquette ring and putting a drip man under the bird but that does not produce the fantastic skin like yours.

    Beef Cost is Unreal!

    That's a decent price these days. An advert for a new location of a BBQ joint in southaustin showed their menu board and brisket was $30 per lb.

    What are you watching ?

    Knight of the 7 kingdoms. The Pitt may be the best TV show ever. Also just watched House of Dragons, it's better than GOF. For non conflict TV we watched every episode of Great British Baking Show (dang those brits are cheerful and polite!).

    Trying To Decide Where To Re-Locate

    I would have to retain ready access to grocery stores and medical care. As a younger person I dreamed of a plot of land away from the big city along with a barn, large garden a workshop and various critters and domestic animals. Now I am addicted to multiple shopping choices, doctors and...
