    Sorry to derail this thread so this will be my last post here and any further ones will be on the Surly kids who didn’t go to UT one…

    Yea, never had been to Fayettenam until last year but the old town by campus is great and reminded me of Austin the the 80’s when I attended UT and will probably buy a house there for the kid to live in next year.  

    @irishtexan - yea, kid does manual labor as a job now and benches 300# at18 (no ‘roids)  But won’t need to swing a shovel as he can use his trust fund to hire someone to dig a ditch for him if needed…

    Cool story bro

    Wow. Going back 25 years Ricky went 1 and Cedric 4. Is JB the 3rd highest selected? 

    Uh, you forgetting last year?

    Solid choice in the green accent wall… had the same color in the nursery/baby room for both of my guys. 
     

    I am irrationally proud that my 2.5 year old’s favorite shirt is currently his “go horns” shirt. I taught him how to do the hook em a little while back and he’s finally able to get his fingers to do it right. Multiple times a day he will just throw up a hook em and yell “go hooor-wuns!”. I just missed it in the picture, but he did it while riding his horsie like it was south Austin’s mom.

    I first found it at a farmer's market by my house. Shit's some of the best salsa I've ever tasted. Turns out it's a dad who wanted to teach his girl how to start a small business. It sorta blew up, and now you can get it in select stores in Houston.  He absolutely has videos of him making massive batches of this stuff in his home kitchen. 

    Pretty sure I bought this at that Heights farmers market a while back and can confirm this shit is delicious. 

  5. What is this pollo marinade?

    PXL_20240414_010107158.thumb.jpg.98a851683184abcccb65effb15ac0848.jpgWhen you have the following on one grill:

    *Pollo Marinada Tradicionale

    *Boudin

    *Homemade Sausage from O LAN O

    There is probably no place other than here where those things are on.

    Granted, Homemade from O LAN O is probably an Acres Homes only thing, but you get the point. 

     

     BTW, Homemade from O LAN O always gets the "that is the best sausage I've ever had."  If you live in Houston and like grilling or smoking cased sausage, you want to try this.

    We have some hardcore Lafayette guys at the top of my department. I think my company is just patronizing them at this point. A few thousand bucks to retain some key guys is nothing to them. 
     

    Anybody that has worked with Louisiana natives will tell you they talk about 2 things: food and how the officials have it out for LSU. 

    I am surprised your Lafayette guys don’t hate the shit out of LSU. Obviously not true Ragin Cajuns

  7. Hmm, I guess as good a place to post this as any. I use country style pork ribs for a Puerto Rican pork and beans recipe that I like, and I was curious how these would do if you smoked them. Used a normal pork/rib rub, for about 4 hours at ~250, then put some Craig’s BBQ sauce on. 
     

    While not something I’ll do on the regular, it was pretty damn tasty, and would be great for a little appetizer or snack type thing. There were a couple pieces that were just a little too fatty, but overall I’m glad I tried it out and could see myself smoking a bunch of them for a game watch party or something, considering how cheap they were.

    Was it really sweet? Looks like molasses is one of the ingredients.

    I didn’t notice it being sweet. Granted, I had it mixed in with the rice, veggies, soy sauce and sesame oil so there was a lot going on, but I don’t think I’d have noticed if you hadn’t mentioned it.

    I'm pretty pleased with myself.  Money shot to follow when served.  Behold: Gumbo Pot Pie!  I'll talk about it a little in the cross-post in the Gumbo Thread.

  10. Not much to add that hasn’t already been said, but all I can say is don’t overthink it. The sleep training courses, the food plans, etc etc are all great but I feel like it’s all mostly for peace of mind. Once we had our second we realized how silly we were for some of the stuff we worried about with #1, and I bet anyone with multiple kids would say the same. 
     

    But mostly, get the longhorn wubanub.

    Think of this post as the trailer for the meal I may have as a main course alternative for Easter.  This is either going to be incredibly average or last-meal worthy.  Saw it on the internet today.

    Now, back to your regularly scheduled programming.
