Just finished grilling a half dozen chicken thighs. They were marinated in the Turkish Marinade I posted on here in 2017. Basically a souvlaki marinade with yogurt added.

Eating a Twix from the car dealership’s vending machine. IYKYK

That's an episode I've probably only watched twice. I feel like I've seen almost every episode 15 times.

I watched it religiously throughout my teen and young adult life and know each episode better than I should.

Fun story: about 17 years ago, I was on the way across the state for work and scanning through local stations. I heard the Seinfeld intro music and stopped on the station. It was a radio show and there was a trivia question— “On the episode of Seinfeld when Jerry forgot his date’s name, what was the name he called her by mistake that rhymed with a part of the female anatomy?” I knew it immediately. They said the 9th person who called with the correct answer won 2 front row tickets to see Jerry Seinfeld live at the township auditorium in Columbia, SC. So I called, was the 9th caller, and won the tix. It was a great standup performance too! Was weird hearing myself on the radio! But an awesome experience with a cool story that I’ll always remember.

So anyone else know the answer? 😂

Nice score @Dyal_SC

That was her correct name, @DoubleEgger ! The question is what was the name he called her by mistake.

Indeed! Stars aligned just right for me that morning. Weird how it worked out. If I recall, it wasn’t even 7 am yet and I was on a backroad somewhere by myself.

Better to be lucky than good right there!

Back to basics, working on my greasy spoon diner egg game. Started using metal bell jar lids to keep the proper shape at the start of the cook. That has been a game changer for me.

Parrilla fajitas from the local Mexican joint. And my cheesy fork in all its filthy glory.

Chicken fajita toco loaded with peppers, onion, cheese, guacamole, pico de gallo and Kinders fire roasted jalapeños and lime crunch. Yes that's a mouthful, so was the taco.

How was it? I’ve never been there. I can’t steer myself clear of Community Q next door.

Buckwoody Egger · January 28

poboy was pretty good. better than the wings, all above average. was in the area and would go again if the craving hits. what we didn’t realize previously is they have a huuuuge basement bar that is also underneath the neighbor. so that’s filling the parking lot for sure.

sad to hear about community q owner passing away. used to go there fairly often but now have fox bros closer for the decadent caloric splurge— and old brick pit for the “always great and low/no guilt”.

Balut… I did it so you wouldn’t have to ….Delicious sous vide 170 for an hour for those that will be trying lol

Hook_emHornsfan_74 · January 29

I just threw up in my mouth a little. I will try things, but I think that's where I draw the line.

Dyal_SC · January 29

Sloppy Joes with some North Georgia venison. Obviously waited til the meat was cooked before adding the sauce. 😜

And some mac n cheese.

Staple weekly dinner. Going to be an early one tonight. Had a sick kiddo with me today, so it’ll be an early dinner and bedtime.

I would NOT hit that

Dyal_SC · January 29

I would need a bottle of your hot sauce to get that one down @lkapigian

@lkapigian

I’ve read a lot about balut over years and know that it is infamous in foodie circles. Probably no. 1 in the will-not-eat camp for most. Yours looks more appetizing than many I’ve seen. I wonder if egg maturity is a factor? A lot of tasters note the significant crunch of the bones and whatnot. The texture of yours appears smoother. Just SV magic?

I’ve tried to push the boundaries over the years and have ventured into grasshoppers and the like, but I must say that balut would be a pretty huge test.

Botch · January 30

One of Anthony Boardain's books begins with his almost cult-like invitation and participation in trying balut for the first time.
One of the more disturbing book openings I've ever read; I need to re-read it again.
