    @buzzvol we’ve had a good weekend for sure. Plan to grill some chicken breast later and use them to make quesadillas.

    @Gulfcoastguy I’m worse than your dad. I average about 3400 miles a year on my pickup. My last Tacoma was a 2000 model. I bought it used in 2007 with 125K on it. When it got wrecked in December it had 165K. 

    @lkapigian The peppers look great.

    I used to go TDY to Maryland quite often, and really learned to love hitting the crab shacks.  Those look like they've had their bottom halves ripped off, fresh out of the water; but I've never seen that before.  
    Is that common, or something new?  
    Cleaning the crabs while live is something I grew up doing and have been doing them this way for 40 years. I like it because you can get the old bay seasoning right into meat and eating them is much easier with less mess.  Problem is the WIFE will not eat them any other way now so it will spoil them.

    Today. Stuffed peppers. I did a dry lamb mince curry (chilli, cardoman, tumeric, garlic and ginger), reduced down in a pan to get rid of the excess moisture. Cook gently until the oil starts to separate and it sticks a bit, then a small amount of water to release the browned meat from the pan. Into the peppers and then cooked in the MMX with hickory chips to get a bit of smoke.








    Love how you put the tops back on for cooking and serving.  I always toss them, but that makes a better presentation.

    It is presentation for this one, but also functional for a rice based filling as it stops the rice from drying out. The boys don't seem to have any trouble eating veg when it's stuffed with curried meat!

    Just froze 4 1/2 quarts of blueberries for later use. I have red beans and sausage on the indoor stove. Too wet and windy to use the Egg even if I weren’t 100 miles away.

    Yes! Cool story as well. We live less than a block from the Stillwater location, which is nice because we can see how long the line is from our front porch. I think the child size serving is an accurate description -- since it it is the size of a small child (stolen from Parks and Rec). The Stillwater location is almost a century old, glad to see they're not skimping on portions at the St. Paul location.

    Also, where do you get the 00 flour in St. Paul? We've been doing more baking since Covid-19 and have been wanting to give it a try. Thought maybe Cossetta's might carry it.

    Got some baby backs in the egg and put the new Blackstone cover my awesome wife bought me for my birthday on. 

    I don’t ever recall blood oozing out of ribs but I also usually don’t open the lid during the cook like I did just now.

    I didn't realize there was a Nelson's location in St. Paul until we looked to see if Nelson's was open in Stillwater. We were planning to go to Stillwater after St. Paul this afternoon. I might have been the only one who didn't know about the St. Paul location. They had a line going down a half block shortly after we ordered. One busy place! 

    I've only ever found it locally at Cossetta's grocery. I tried a small Italian supermarket in North Minneapolis a few years back but they were in between ownership and I wasn't able to purchase any. They did carry it though. I've also seen a few people comment that Whole Foods carried 00 in the King Arthur brand but it wasn't consistent of true Italian 00 flour. (Or something like that)
