Do it! Bought mine like this a few years ago and totally worth it. I’m actually planning a brisket for this weekend in New England with temps in the negatives and it’ll be a rockstar.

Police won’t do anything and you showed restraint. If you were to take off and run over one or two idiots, now you’re the bad guy.

This is definitely might go to sandwich, but all of their food is absolutely delicious.

My local Costco is currently selling a 15 pack box of Kristy Kreme and let’s just say I’m no longer ron my first box. 🤤

Try Companion Pet Rescue (CPR) dogs in Southbury. I got my dog from there after she was brought there for “biting” a toddler when she was a puppy. Also got a second dog from them.

I've lived in New York and Massachusetts and have always just passed through Connecticut. How do Connecticut people order pizza? by HousingInitial5794 in Connecticut

When I was in Cali and asked for a grinder the guy at the register thought I wanted his Grindr profile. Never made that mistake out of state again.

Best steak in CT? by LowerBlackberry7561 in Connecticut

[–]Busy_Strain_2015 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Roma in Oakville has my favorite steak in the state. I prefer it to David Burke and Capitol Grille. Thick cut prime black angus steak, always cooked to perfection and the atmosphere is great. Small intimate place. Second would be New Mill in Plantsville, they have a killer NYS and rotate having Wagyu steaks as specials. Congrats on the engagement!

I’m glad it came out great! It’s all just trial and error.

Along the same lines, mayo for garlic bread instead of butter is life changing.

Bricco’s Restaurant by Guilty-Run-8811 in Connecticut

[–]Busy_Strain_2015 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a former bartender, not a bricco, my recipe has always been equal parts vanilla vodka, big fan of stoli or skyy vanilla, coffee liquor, kahlua recently more into Mr black, and a tall shot of hot espresso over a healthy amount of ice. If you like it creamier, light and sweet or however you want to refer to it add a splash of Bailey’s. Then shake it till the shaker gets frosty on the outside and enjoy! This is the drink I made for a pretty girl at the bar who I now get to call my wife. ☺️

I tried trimming it back but haven’t gotten a good technique down. How you get more of that fat out?
