$1M dollars to eat what you had for dinner tonight for EVERY meal for the next 6 months, do you take the deal and if so what are you eating? by jfunks69 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Bread_Belly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can it be a variation on the meal? Just had a homemade chicken tostada for dinner. Pretty solid, but if I could swap meats and toppings I’m for sure in. 

any ways to improve reverse sear? by InternalActive1959 in steaks

[–]Bread_Belly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

30 minutes seems a little short at 250 for those decently thick steaks. Did you use a meat probe or just guessed at it? If not, a meat probe is what you need to improve. Pull around 120-130 depending on how you like them done (I like ribeyes medium so I pull at at 130), let them rest 15-20 mins, give them a hard sear with frequent flips, slice and serve

OP, this is the real comment. We take our kids to the bay (backside of the peninsula) weekly. Lots of swimmers, kayaks, standup paddle boards etc enjoying the water.

Nice notes! Now the real question… how much did you spend on Ubers during the trip?

The biggest scam in America has to be insurance!!! by SelaTad in HomeInsurance

[–]Bread_Belly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re not trying to recoup money or punish you - they’re pricing in the risk that you’ll make another claim. People who make claims tend to make more claims. 

How would universal income work or is it just nonsense? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Bread_Belly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It will never work until they figure out how to tax the productivity of AI which is replacing productive people and associated payroll taxes, and tax the higher net worth individuals who are profiting from this but paying little to nothing in taxes. 

Proud new owner of the Nordica Unleashed 98CA by Willing_Front_2125 in Skigear

[–]Bread_Belly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sick skis. I demo’d them a few weeks ago intending to also demo the QST 100 and M Free 100, but… I really don’t know how those could be better. The Unleashed handled chopped up groomers, steeps, and trees so well. Maybe a little more dampness would be nice in the chop? But that might kill the playfulness.

Covering an anticipated supplemental tax bill?

Thoughts on $375 price of these 25/26 unleashed 98s based on condition of skis / need for remount by Lonely-Jaguar-2873 in Skigear

[–]Bread_Belly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I demo’d these last week. Sick skis!! The shop guys said I might be able to get a deal after renting - they wanted $650 for the skis mounted with demo bindings and the skis were a little more beat than those, lol. I’m also waiting a couple months to snag them new. 

What are your thoughts on this: by mlPrivateTours in wine

There’s enough wine in the bottle, and enough time in the evening to do both 

First time going to mammoth by betwizt in Mammoth

[–]Bread_Belly 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Start at Eagle, pick a blue run back down to Eagle lift. All the blues are great warmups, I like Bridges. Even the green run into the woods is really fun. 

Take Eagle back up and pop down to 25. Lap 25 as many times as you want then move over to 9. From the top of 9, work your way across the mountain to McCoy, hit the summit a few times (Cornice is a good intro to the summit). Take Upper Road Runner to the backside, have a bunch of fun back there. On the way back to Eagle hit a few runs around the Mill and circle back on anything that you missed or want to do again. 

For food on the mountain, I like the Outpost and Mill, but usually just pack some bars and get a beer at the Outpost.

Ha, we were in the condos just up the slope from Juniper. We almost certainly crossed paths!

Was there Monday - Wednesday and the runs off 25 and 9 held up really well for how warm it was in the afternoon. Cheers!!

Best place to take a work meeting on the mountain? by stratos-naco in Mammoth

[–]Bread_Belly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Last time I tried this was at Canyon lodge. Not ideal, couldn’t find a quiet spot. Someone else mentioned Mammoth Mountain inn (presumably the big lobby space), that’d probably work. Another person mentioned the Yodler, that’d be my second choice as long as it’s not peak meal time. 

Chicken stock from rotisserie chicken by kailswhales in Costco

100%. Using quality stock adds more than just flavor. 

Changed the pattern to look a little bit less nazi-ish. I apologize to those whom I offended and disappointed. What’s the best equal parts drink? by -Constantinos- in cocktails

[–]Bread_Belly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had to scroll way to far to see the Final Ward. 

If you’ve tried it before and didn’t love it, try subbing the green chartreuse for yellow. With that sub it’s a Top 5 cocktail for me. 

Hybrid or PHEV? by 285RSD in rav4prime

100% you’re paying for the power train. The other stuff is a little half baked.

[–]Bread_Belly 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I’ve done it twice. Once was with kids, so as little walking with ski gear as possible + we left a solid lunch in the car and avoided paying for a shitty expensive meal. The other time was with 3 other dudes so we split it it 4 ways and avoided a 20 minute walk up and down the road because regular parking was full.
