  1. Definitely thought of that. The weber grease trap is under the top left of the grill, so I thought I could drill/cut a hole above that corner and just let the grease drain into the grill trap. But it sure seems dumb to have to spend $200+ and then have to cut a hole when I could spend ~$300 and have a whole new toy
  2. I was a short order cook in a former life, and have always loved cooking on the plancha. After spending Christmas week at my inlaws cooking on the griddle top on their indoor range, I've started down the rabbit hole. My current setup is a Weber Genesis 330 NG and large BGE. Have considered the little griddle, and the griddlemaster pro insert. Little griddle grease management seems stupid. Griddlemaster grease managment is non-existent. I would lean towards the griddlemaster and just leave it in the Weber in place of the grates, but the only way to clean the grease is scoop it up with a spatula? There's a video on their youtube where the dude cooks a bunch of bacon and then spends a minute scooping burning hot bacon grease into a stainless mixing bowl. Ain't nobody got time for that. Plus, the price of a griddlemaster is perilously close to a 36" blackstone without any accessories. One way or the other, this is bound to happen DDD - what did you wind up doing?
  3. nog went in the fridge on Sunday. An appropriate first use for the kitchenaid mixer we picked up off the local buy/sell group. Based upon the amazingness of just drinking that last little bit of leftover nog in the mixing bowl, no way any of it lasts past christmas
  4. I, too, am three hours into a smoke session on my Passover pork shoulder.
  5. T-Bone's and keep that shit quiet

  7. Thoughts and prayers to everyone crossing durham heading east on 16th from here on out. Somebody's gonna get killed by that fence
  8. I did a home study, got an apap, and concur with Lat 22. If you need it, it will change your life.
  9. my uncle kicked Sy Sperling's ass when they were kids. But Sy Sperling kicked my uncle's ass a couple of weeks later
  10. Downhouse recently retired the kimchi burger, but I am here to say that the Barback burger that took its place is, in a word, highly smashable
  11. Badass, Jimbo. I'll get to work on a new hashtag
  12. Russ and Daughters instead of Katz's. Walk around Central Park. Walk over the Brooklyn Bridge and back
  13. Don't forget, Starbucks isn't a coffee company, it's a milk company
  14. I learned to love mezcal at La Botica
  15. +1 for the Stihl farm boss also +1 for a handy electric. Use them both at the tree farm with a generator in the truck bed
  16. yawn. In my estimation the biggest problems is drivers killing bicyclists with virtual impunity in this city
  17. I'm not the demographic for it, but that Alba location needs a playscape, an ice cream window, a fence, and booze
  18. We did a trip in '10 to Madrid. Stayed in the Roommate Hotel Plaza Santa Ana. Used Madrid as the base of operations and did several day trips - El Escorial, Segovia, Toledo. Went to the bullfights, watched a lot of futbol (it was during the Mundial), and hit up all of the major museums in the city. One of the lesser-trafficked museums is the Museo de las Americas, where they keep the plunder of the empire. It's up to you whether you want to do the cross-country adventure or keep it local and live like a Madrileno for a bit. We chose the latter, and while I'd still like to see Granada, it worked out great for us.
  19. since I made that post I went last night and had meatballs. $6 per meatball and it's worth it
  20. next time add a meatball or two. Step the game up. It took me years to figure that out. Also, a couple of visits ago we were seated next to a young couple who were arguing because the girl had checked a text from some other guy during dinner and the dude was raging at her throughout the meal. I was completely oblivious to the whole thing until numnuts slammed his wine glass down on the table hard enough to break the stem. What was really funny though was that the waitstaff very coolly and professionally appeared within moments with a replacement glass. When numnuts stormed off, we tried to ask the girl if she was okay, or needed help, but she noped off and went and caught an uber with the dude. /csb
  21. if anyone you know needs a blue watch
  22. enjoy it while it lasts, amigos. May your ownership never tire of pretending it's about the football Sincerely, The Houston Dynamo
