    Looks great, @caliking! I've got a boneless six-pounder salted and sitting in the fridge for tomorrow. What temp and how long did this one take?
    Thanks. 250F, indirect,  for about 3hrs until it hit 120. Then pulled the stone, and seared on all sides until IT 130.

    This one was probably similar to yours re weight. I trimmed the 3 bones off,  and saved them for later.

    Thanks @Mattman3969 , @SciAggie. Happy New Year to you and yours, as well.

    @lousubcap it was a 40th birthday gift from caliqueen. Local knife maker, custom fit for my hand. It's so nice, that  I'm afraid to use it!

    New Year’s Eve dinner was mostly based on leftovers, but we did fry some bacon and make a homemade blue cheese dressing for a nice wedge salad.
    I love those. Mine never look that good though.

    Bourbon blind tasting complete for 2020. Tonight's flavours (nod):

    Stagg followed by the DO as the other two were at least half an order of magnitude in arrears.  That Elijah Craig was barrel strength and purchased at the Heaven Hill distillery (supposedly the only source,,,), 80 km (one way) road trip.  The drive was fun!
    Happy New Year.
    See ya on the other side!
    Pacing now to get to 2021 tonight!
    Good grief, great lineup! The DO is by far lagging behind those other offerings. To each their own , but the peerless and the Elijah Craig are easily better Pours, and the Stagg, please. One can debate stagg. Vs EC barrel proof, but the other two are a level down and I would argue the peerless is a level above the DO. All are great pours and I’d be happy getting schnockered to any of them.  Enjoy!

    Love this.  Because I have read a number of these posts I have come to realize that you stick to the party line and what seems like the most likely scenario -but the players rarely oblige.  

    So, just keep it interesting I'm going to quibble with some of your predictions.  

    I don't see Spurs and Leeds scoring so much but the outcome will be as you predict - just 2-1.

    I appreciate that you are overcompensating for your Palace bias, but they will score on Sheffield - twice in fact.  With that said, their defense is so bad that the final score will be 2-1.

    Chelsea will be up for Man City - it will be 1-1.
    My dear friend and first victim to be drawn in to my vortex of despair.  
    Can't disagree with your refinements at all.  

    There's a backdrop of discontent about late notice Covid postponements amid the hectic schedule causing some teams to get a rest while others are back to back.   Uncertainty breeds negative tactics so lower goal tallies are likely. 

    And congratulations on getting a flag for your post.   =)

    I'm going to take my first try at a double smoked maple bourbon glazed ham using the @egret method.

    Happy New Year, all! We celebrated the New York Ball Drop at nine our time with some bubbly, and then celebrated the local west coast New Year with, wait for it, more bubbly! Somehow we managed to leave some for a breakfast celebration.

    Watching salt fat heat acid.  This episode is about salt.  Watching the old world style of making soy sauce in Japan.  Really cool. What a rabbit hole.  Japan produces around 4,000 different salts. I now want wooden barrel made soy sauce.

    Started this 10 pound spiral cut ham @ 8:00am. It will go about 5 hours to 140 internal temperature. I'll add glaze when the internal temperature reaches 130 degrees.

    @TTC My wife and I stayed there one time when we lived in Colorado. We showed up and it was green grass. By the time we woke up we had a foot of snow. It’s beautiful this time of year.

    Agreed. Just set a world record for most "wows" uttered watching that run to set up that last touchdown. Wow!

    Is there some kind of trick to peeling off just once slice from a package of thinly-sliced prosciutto? I see pics of all kinds of Noms (wrapped asparagus spears, pizzas, etc) with whole slices of prosciutto, but they just fall apart when I try it. 'waving the stack for a few seconds didn't help.

    "Man Utd v Villa, Ole’s lads up to 2nd and looking a credible top 4 outfit now.  Villa are keeping the good times alive too and this will be a fair contest.  A 2-1 home win possibly achieved through a dubious penalty."

    @CPFC1905, I've only seen the scoreline - so I don't know how dubious the penalty was - but regardless of that, I have to give you credit for nailing that one.
