At first glance I wasn’t wearing my glasses and thought it was rectum. Looks good nonetheless.

Post rectum, the plating is challenging. 🤢🤮

We are in Grayton beach this weekend, was going to surf fish but the gulf looks like the bay and there was a pretty good chop on the water. Decided to go over to the 331 bridge with some shrimp and catch some dinks! Enjoyed the redfish bite, 4 reds and 2 mangrove snapper in about 45 minutes. No keepers but I had a blast! I always enjoy catching reds with multiple spots, beautiful fish.

I have the ball game on in the garage. The motorcycle shop ordered the wrong size rear tube/tires for the scooter. So I've found myself cleaning and removing blades to be sharpened on the rider. One less step for next spring I guess...

This week’s predictions are 10% easier than last week but that is no guarantee they will be any more reliable.   Things got underway last night with Super (Dirty) Leeds deflating the premature hype around unbeaten Aston Villa, courtesy a hat-trick from Patrick Bamford - words I never thought I would type.  Bamford, part of the JCB dynasty, rejected a place at Harvard to sign a pro contract instead.  

Today

West Ham v Man City, the visitors injury list would make a team capable of an easy mid-table finish.  Will that be a problem? Depends what mood West Ham are in. 2-3

Fulham v Palace, the hosts are struggling already but can improve. Palace have found new depths of dull to trawl with a series of very innocuous displays recently.  Both will fancy the win but the Eagles defence is slightly more reliable, so 1-2.

Man Utd v Chelsea, goals goals goals.  Super Frank’s men are specialising in given away leads, Ole’s are unpredictable, even after beating PSG there could get humped today.   1-4

Liverpool v Sheff Utd, different season’s this time out for both. The Reds languishing in 4th and not able to reach top spot today without a massive win.   The Blades have got a bad case of second season syndrome.  4-0

Stoke have steadied the ship and welcome Brentford and it will be a good test.  A draw or win for the Potters will show good progress and solid credentials.  1-1.

Sunday

Southampton v Everton, last week this would have been an easy away win - but injury and suspension have upset the toffee-applecart.  First taste of defeat for the high flying blues?   I think so 2-1.

Wolves v Newcastle, Traore is fully fit now and the hosts have been missing that spark.  The toon could be great, could be wretched.  2-0.

Arsenal v Leicester,  game of the weekend?  Both are vying for top six, even four, spots .  Gunners are benefitting from Arteta’s touch and have to take their chances, the Foxes pose a big threat.  3-2

Monday

Brighton v West Brom, should be a routine home win.  the Seagulls are playing silky possession football but only in the middle third of the field.  The visitors will be targeting the match as a realistic chance of points.  But, 1-0 it is.

Burnley v Spurs,  Jose is getting the mojo back and Dyche’s chaps are int eh doldrums. Cant see beyond an away win here - might be difficult but it is entirely feasible.  1-3 - late cameo third goal from committed hair enthusiast Gareth Bale. 

That’s that, remember to put your clocks back tonight and revel in that extra hour of slumber - or is that just us?

Compared to the above no chance-but I did get a good Mother Nature body wash in the thunder storm rolling thru at the close of the stick burner cook.
Beef back, pork baby backs and St Louis.

Crunch time-bark.  Tasted way better than it looks.

And the not so great $$ shot as I was slicing and they were gone. Beef backs in the middle-my favorite.

Nailed the finish as usual!!  Great looking cook.

Bought this chunk of beef a few weeks ago because it looked good and stuck it in the freezer. Ribs plus? Took off the skin and rib membrane, S&P and on with Hickory. At the start and after about 4 hours.

Yes, I am explaining what those rules are, in a nutshell, as well as why it's easily one of the most important algorithms of the last century.

The short rib section has been done for a while, so taken that off to wrap.

Just swapped over to an iPhone 12. I couldn’t see the point of a Pro or Pro max.

Do you know if you have 5G in your area?  At least you're set when/if it comes in (the new camera is supposedly stunning).

I don't know but I planned on being ready for it. It should also be compatible with the new car this spring(bluetooth4, usbC, wireless charging etc). The 8plus that I had already made excellent photos but I wanted slightly smaller exterior dimensions this time.

Damn, still in the trailer?  I wonder if they’re still hung up in the city building code crap.  That’s been several years now.

The Cen-Tex Smoker

Did a shady parking lot meat deal with @20stone and @Foghorn to divy up some venison sausage We made (from the live stream we did for the OBR fundraiser). Fog brought some wagyu ground beef from a friends ranch and 20stone brought the much anticipated tandooriwurst from Ashish and some breakfast sausage from some left over ground pork from the venison. We met halfway from San Antonio and Austin in a little town called New Braunfels in a Buccees parking lot. After hearing of the passing of Texas Music legend Jerry Jeff Walker this morning I made the short drive to Gruene (sounds like green) to pay homage at one of his frequent haunts and the last place I saw him play, Gruene Hall. RIP Jerry Jeff!
