This is where I feel so damn lucky. We've been married for almost 8 years. She bought a target purse while we were dating, and after the kids were picking the fake leather apart on it, she bought some Amazon purse maybe a year ago at most. 2 purses in a decade, and nothing name brand. Her parents instilled some damn good fiscal responsibility in her, for sure!
I bought my wife a Coach purse back when we were dating before the turn of the century. She didn't much use a purse before and only uses it occasionally. It'll last her lifetime.

Yeah, but they weighed what, 15 lbs or so? Put me in the camp of not buying the "inflation adjusted" BBQ prices. Some of it is just demand.
LeRoy says that finished brisket amounts to 36% of the total. L&L use almost every piece for different things: burgers and tallow primarily. Watching their various videos - it appears that L&L has very little waste.
Here is a video of his brisket yield test:

I didn't take a picture of the LeRoy & Lewis menu with the prices, but its not cheap. I know the brisket, which is only available on Saturdays, was $40/pound. The $23 two meat plate had an upcharge of $2 for sliced beef and $3 for brisket.

First five minutes ofInteresting. I don't think I've ever cooked chuck roast such that I could slice it. I've always braised & shredded it for pot roast, shredded beef tacos, etc. Was it tough?
explains where and how L&L gets chuck meat for its sliced beef.
Probably could not get and results with a regular chuck roast.

Wasn't tough - taste and consistency of a sirloin steak. The flat iron was very tender and seasoned just like a brisket. You can see the flat iron on my plate and both on the tray.

Leroy & Lewis still has the truck at Cosmic Coffee though, yes? I'd bet there's no line there.
They do and there are probably short lines. However, I believe it is a reduced menu. They didn't have the daily specials of brisket or bacon ribs yesterday.

Hit LeRoy and Lewis Barbecue's new brick and mortar yesterday. Got there around 11:30 and it was a two hour wait. Probably the busiest time of the entire week.
They have an "Anytime Eats" menu which can be ordered at the bar with no line, no waiting. Burgers, sandwiches, sausage wraps, onion rings, etc. Some people ordered from this menu to eat while in line.
Regular by-the-pound menu regular items were sliced beef, chopped beef, pulled whole hog, direct smoked chicken, and sausages. Daily specials of beef cheeks on Fridays; brisket and bacon ribs on Saturdays; and pork chops, beef barbacoa, and lamb barbacoa on Sundays.
I talked with Evan who was on the cutting board. Sliced beef was either flat iron or chuck roast. Flat iron tasted like brisket and chuck roast was more like smoked steak. Both were very good.
I ordered the two meat plate with sliced beef, whole hog, Caesar slaw, and kimchi. My buddy ordered the Pitmaster's Platter which has both types of sliced beef, whole hog, two types of sausage, cauliflower burnt ends, miso glazed carrot, and a bunch of sides.

Pro tip: if you ever get put in a mental institution - act like you're crazy and then get better. Acting like you're not crazy doesn't work.

The wife has a 2018 4Runner Limited with the X-REAS system. Needs replacing and I am not paying to replace that. Anyone here converted to regular shocks like Bilsteins?

Although I never owned any Culture Club albums, I appear to know the lyrics to most of their songs. Lyrics that I will belt out in the car if a song comes up on 80s on 8.

There is enough room in the timeline to do another movie between the Chalamet movie and the Wilder movie. However, the older Wonka is considerably more cynical and I'm not sure I want to see that evolution. Oompa Loompas fleeing the vermicious knids could be interesting, though.

heading to S. Padre this summer with the family.
Do the local seafood joints on the island buy fresh gulf shrimp? Do I actually need to check with head chef before ordering my fried shrimp and fish platter?
Don't ever assume that a restaurant is serving local seafood.

I have not, nor will ever knowingly buy any seafood from SE Asia after watching a documentary about their practices. If its not Gulf shrimp no thanks
Vietnamese catfish is all too often substituted for other fish filets - farm raised catfish, sole, grouper, . . .
Only fish I order out is Patagonian toothfish.

The bulk of the Grease soundtrack.
I got that album when it came out in '78 - a few years prior to even seeing the movie. I remember some kids doing Greased Lightening at an elementary talent show when I was in 3rd grade.

Does the lawyer need to be in Bexar? Executor is in Dallas.
The attorney will need to attend some in-person hearings. Also, local knowledge of the probate court is a plus. I would suggest getting a Bexar County attorney.

When I was a kid, my parents had one of Steve Martin's comedy albums. To this day, I can quote most of the bits. In fact, there were several cuts in the documentary which I knew immediately.
My college-aged daughters (no pics) really like Only Murders in the Building. I love the fact that they can appreciate Steve Martin and Martin Short, too.

When he's old enough, have him get a job at HEB. My daughter (no pics) worked there her senior year in high school, goes on LOA while she is away at college, picks up shifts over school breaks and summer, and gets two partner discount cards. 10% off HEB branded items which includes most chicken and beef. The discount card works even while she is on LOA. Over holiday weekends, the discount card goes to 25% off.

Interstellar BBQ on 620 is really good (Texas Monthly #2 in 2021) and should be right on your way.
