I bought precooked crabs, and the recipe capped for them to be tossed in with the initial boil. I originally figured I'd toss them in with everything else, but I followed the recipe because that meat is going to be blasted either way. At least a flavor contribution might be a good thing
In honor of Mrs. ROFL BOX and anyone else with allergies, I'm taking my first crack at seafood gumbo. All veggies and and shell fish should be visible so they can be eaten around. I should have gone with pre-peeled crawfish tails instead of crab meat. I also missed the window on this past years homemade shrimp stock and will be using Knorr + some heavily-reduced. gelatinized turkey stock I froze at Thanksgiving. Should be tasty. Pics unless I celebrate the holidays too much and forget or the proverbial, "We ate it so quickly, there was no time for pics."
If I missed this, I'm sorry, but as far as unread content, it used to automatically bold threads in which I had unread posts. Does this enable that or just list new posts? It was a nice feature.

Not so fast my friend. Maybe in Texas. Certainly, in 2026. But . . . https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Molasses_Flood SnopesThe Great Molasses Flood of 1919A deadly wave of molasses swept through Boston in January 1919, crushing and drowning 21 people.
Little test post. Running on my phone's hotspot. Edit: Posted quickly, but when I tried to navigate, it's in spinning hourglass hell and took 30+ seconds to load. Other web forums loading in seconds. Tapa working faster than we interface for me.
Fiber at the modem for me is fine. Running slowly for me on multiple computers. Cleared cache on the older one just to be sure. If Brisket takes me back, we can spring for faster internet. Laptop reports 200mb down, and the speedtest ran more quickly than Surly loaded.
In case it hasn't already been mentioned, pages are taking a good while to load. Slower than molasses in January slow. I'm sure it will get sorted out, but at least I was able to log in. Or maybe Imma has me on that "miserable user" extension?
Great Christmas with the family got a nice shirt and a couple of other things, but nobody took my Gravy Yacht (see Holiday thread) hints seriously. We all stayed healthy and no worse for the wear another year. Merry Christmas, Surly.
I had a brisket flat in the freezer and upon a family vote, defrosted it to grind up for burgers. I made homemade buns, which are simple and always elevate things. I also caramelized an onion for the occasion. I made some nice patties and froze the rest of the ground brisket for later. Then I had one too many and my dumb ass decided to cook the burgers slightly off the heat and forgot to oil the grill grates. They stuck, half fell apart and just weren't good. Edible, but not my best effort. That's all to say, here's a picture of the buns.
edit to add that I need to work on my sesame seeding.
