Really enjoyed this, agree with all the above responses - nicely done sir!“There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body.”

Large BGE & Mini Max for the wok. A few old camp Dutch ovens and a wood fired oven. LSG 24” cabinet offset smoker. There are a few paella pans and a Patagonia cross in the barn. A curing chamber for bacterial transformation of meats...

man you should give lessons. That was a great looking cook.
I need to find a recipe for paella and give that a try. Love that grill thing you were using. Home made or store bought?
That's not what I thought Texas looked like. Its beautiful.

get a 12-ish inch pan that fits the egg. After 2-3 cooks you can fly by the seat of your pants. As far as the grill, it's home made - inspired by Francis Mallman (see him on Netflix).
Rockdale is in the Texas hill country. When we get rain like we have had this spring it is indeed beautiful. My MIL's place has oak and hickory trees. Useless trivia - the "rock" of Rockdale name - is on this place. It was a landmark for the area just like the "round rock" in Round Rock near Austin.Coleman, Texas

Absolutely beautiful! But I'm sorry, every time I see this thread title, I can't help but wonder whether or not your crazy uncle was invited...
I hate it when I go to the kitchen for food and all I find are ingredients!

@Carolina Q There is a short story about the title. My daughter asked if the mussels were alive. Of course my son told her yes - then she realized we would be cooking them while still alive. My son asked if she could hear them scream... I thought of the spring lambs and made the pun related to the movie.Coleman, Texas
