    That’s really too bad. I tried Stromboli for the first time many years ago at the Red River location
  2. The Jalapeño poppers are the only thing worth stopping for at It’s All Good. The 2 times I have been there the brisket had a steamed taste and texture. Beef ribs were the worst I have had.
  3. He's nails. His career has been Incredible, with a string of big roles from about 1970 through the early 80s, then switching seemlessly to more supporting roles, which he continues today. Had a cameo in "Kentucky Fried Movie." Biggest miss: taking $35,000 v. the 2% of gross offered to him for his small role in "Animal House." Cost him $2.8 million in late-70s dollars. He'll get roles as long as he wants to continue acting.
  4. It is a Cali thing, though I've been doing them for years. You really should sear on the grill after smoking (as the OP indicated he does). Out there, there are cooked fast on a wood grill (or Santa Maria grill), so the searing replicates the crust you get out West.
  5. Their sausage always looks like that, though it is always cooked through. There was a delay between 1) picking it up, and 2) getting it home, and then another delay in 3) opening and eating. This was not a shot at the restaurant. We did heat it up before eating.
  6. If you are cooking at 225-250, you really shouldn’t have a problem (based on what my Traeger uses). If you are concerned given this is the first overnighter, set an alarm and get up and check it.

    Burgers

    Exactly — I wasn’t suggesting they did both, but more that it is an odd combination of grainy/sour. I still use SC, but have pretty much been able to get the ratios right (and add seasonings) to eliminate the taste.

    Burgers

    Odd. The “grainy” texture would indicate they had used a flour/milk base and didn’t do it correctly, while the sour taste indicates a sodium citrate base but used too much sodium citrate, which can give a sour taste. Either way, doesn’t sound appetizing

  10. Tonight’s offerings. The champagne was nice — I’ve had zero dosage before, but not a Rose zero dosage. Seven Stones is one of our favorites

    What is the issue with the queso?
  12. Interstellar. Great with a side of the smoked scalloped potatoes
  13. Why not just use one of the large brining bags?
  14. HBO, and the first 2 episodes have been very good
  15. About 2 years ago, and the 70, 74 and 76 Mondavi reserve at a dinner. 74 was the winner. The 78 should be great. Will be interesting to see what happens with the Reserve going forward. I have a feeling that the MacDonalds will stop selling to Constellation when their contract expires in a couple of years. Mondavi has been using their fruit for years in the Reserve.
  16. Tonight, with a dry aged steak. Really nice, starting buying from them about 3 years ago. Small production from Calistoga; Aaron Pott is the winemaker

    Which included me, and I liked them both.

    They had been and, yes, the problem was they were so far north on 183. I really like Saccone’s, but have not been there since they relocated from 620/Anderson Mill to Leander a couple of years ago.
