Sweating. Had a client move into a new building  Gonna be a late night 

That dude behind you must know what he’s in for 

Unfortunately, he does. That's the typical reaction when these guys see me show up on site

Bit the bullet and joined Costco today. 

RIP in Erik.

First purchase was a 17.8 lb prime brisket.  They only had a couple 10 lbers and several smaller in the cooler, but had the 17lber in the back.

This one will sit in the fridge until next week.  Serving it for during an Army win vs. Air Force next Sat.

After @tarheelmatt 's steak motivational thread I had to cook one.  Life gets in the way sometimes, so after being audibled out last night I decided to have a very late luncheon banquet.  Mind you, pedestrian pics to follow but it got the job done.

Reverse sear to 120*F (2lb Costco prime ribeye)- then into the caveman pit:

About 60 secs /side then off to the altar.

Worked for me.  Thanks for lookin'.  Had a nice mahogany finish-trust me  .

The cow didn’t drive that cook. You roped that one. Nice work.

@lousubcap you mastered that!

Pies.

 After 3 weeks of tinkering with dough and stuff. I won't admit to how many I've eaten in that time. 

Mozz, anchovies, garlic, onions. Pizza Americana dough from Reinhart’s American Pie. 



Similar, but sans anchovies. Pepperoni instead. 50% tipo 00.

Cold and rainy ALL day. Decided to do some white chicken chili on the stove. Used a rotisserie chicken from Costco, it was well worth the $4.99 I spent on it. 

nolaegghead

@NC_Egghead Those chickens are big time savers for when you want to throw together a chicken dish.

step 1.  Buy rotisserie chicken

step 2.  Eat most of the skin before wife finds it

step 3.  Remove meat and make something with it.

step 4.  Throw carcass in pot of boiling water and clean out your vegetable drawers.   (make broth and freeze for next time)

NC_Egghead

@nolaegghead Totally agree with the above! Our local Harris Teeter has rotisserie chickens for $4.99 on Sundays but they are about half the size. I read somewhere recently Costco is going to start an operation to raise their own chickens. Evidently they take a loss on them now. They’re a great time saver either way!

Any pizza (or anything else) with anchovies wins the day.  Great looking pies right there.  I would inhale those.  Congrats!

Thanks. Sis doesn’t dig anchovies like we do, so she got the one with pepperoni. Tasted pretty good with the onion marmalade on it.

Tell me more...

bucky925

@NC_Egghead  I really don't know a heck of a lot about it.  I have been playing in my district for a month or two and won 2 bottles of fine whisky which @JohnInCarolina is going to enjoy one.   As I understand it the higher the sales district the more rare sprits they are alotted.  So while watching baseball I figured with the Pappy lottery just around the corner I'd sign up for anything with in a hour or so driving time. Now of course you still have to pay for the hooch.

But not the $2500 dollars for a PVW 25 that was in a local store in NWGA last yr. 

theyolksonyou

Or the 170 for weller 12

NC_Egghead

@bucky925, thanks for the info. I’ll be hitting my local ABC store tomorrow. If they don’t have it, they’re good about locating the nearest store that does.

bucky925

That being said I still can't get into the Moresville ABC lottery .   Where the NASCAR, NFL, and Bball pro's are.

I've always thought of myself as a big dog kinda guy, but my little Boston has been the best dog I've ever had.  (Other than the snoring)
