    So my wife’s POS Jeep ate a lifter and cam. Little brother fixed it, so we had him and his better half for steaks. She likes them ruined, he wants brown and my better wishes for no salt. Eff me. My steak at least was good as was the potatoes and boxed wine.  =)
    I feel your pain. I have educated my children and they all prefer correctly cooked meat, but Anne is a lost cause and likes everything overcooked. Last week my spatchcock chicken was 'too succulent' i.e. not dry enough. I despair sometimes and then resort to drink.

    Tonight’s dinner at Mateo:




    That egg yolk... amazing.  Not terribly close, but have you been to the Spanish joint Curate over in Ashville?
    We have been to Curate, and it’s great.  Asheville is one of my favorite places on the planet.

    Thanks man, it was.  This was a dinner we won with a couple of friends of ours, at an auction to raise money for our elementary school.  They took good care of us last night.

    Does anyone know what cut of meat the "old 96er" was in The Great Outdoors? 

    Was it a round steak?

    What’s the deal with that last pic the bottom dish?  What kind of peppers are those?  They look familiar.

    I could be wrong but JIC is probably in a food coma after that and I will take a stab at it.  They look like shishito peppers to me.

    The 72oz steak you’d get for free if you ate it all? Not sure about what was on John Candy’s plate but those are typically Sirloins I think.

    After more research, specifically, it is a Round Bone Sirloin Steak.

    "This cut comes from the broader section of the hipbone (ilium). It has traces of Top Sirloin, Tenderloin, Tri-Tip and Outside Round that make up its anatomy."

    Did a couple of chickens on the XL. Cut them right in half this time, just to do it a bit different to spatchcock.

    No food coma here, was just on a flight to DC.  I’m here for a few days, doing work for the DOE.  And I believe you’re right in the peppers.  Good eye, Johnny!

    You’ve got to go.  It’s the best restaurant in Durham in my opinion, and given the selection, that bar is set pretty high.

    Holy shiznit. That’s gonna be awesome.

    Had some ground beef and brisket flat I trimmed off my last brisket in the freezer so pulled it out the other day to thaw and now I’m making some chili for my daughters baptism next weekend.  My wife ordered deli sandwiches but I wasn’t going to settle for just that.

    Letting it go on low for a long time to get that brisket nice and tender.
