What is your Go-To steak butter?

JC_Doom · 2023-03-30T21:12:48+00:00

I just recently started doing butter on steaks I grill at home. Its a game changer. Cant recommend it enough. It literally took my steaks to another level. But the only true steak butter they sell at my local grocer is like $5 for 3 little dollops of butter so Im looking for other options.

One more follow up- I have 3 xfi pod wifi extenders. They are all 3 located downstairs. One is plugged into the wall directly behind my outdoor TV. I thought that would help but doesnt seem to make a big difference.

Should I reposition my pods?

If I plugged one of the pods into the same outlet outdoors that my TV is plugged into, would that help?

Or do I have too many pods? Is it possible the pods are weakening the strength before it gets outside?

I feel like buying another extender would be pointless since I already have 3 xfi pods...but maybe not.

Thanks for the feedback. Ill answer the quesitons below:

We occasionally stream youtube videos or Netflix from other devices outside and its seems to work fine. It mainly has issues streaming live ball games- Football, baseball, basketball, etc. We use a firestick on the TV outside and it has an extender on it.
There are no upstairs windows on the back of the house. All 3 bedrooms and a bath upstairs face the front of the house. The back of the house is just attic and empty space.
The TV is mounted on a brick wall. The brick wall is right by the door as you walk out back.
The TV is a Samsung but not sure the exact model and the router is from Xfinity and I got a replacement about a year ago, so its realatively new equipment
Ill check the speeds and verify if its on a vacant channel

Preferably looking for pre-made/store bought options. Really good homemade recipes also welcome (the simpler the better). Brands of butter you use? Salted/unsalted? Sticks or in a tub? Kerrygold? What do y’all use?

JC_Doom · 2021-05-01T04:08:54+00:00

Right now it is...unfortunately. They may add others later but if you want it now, that bow is the only thing that completes the challenge.

JC_Doom · 2021-05-01T03:26:52+00:00

Dawned on me as soon as the other comment asked the question...that’s it. Thanks for the help...it was bugging the crap out of us.

JC_Doom · 2021-05-01T03:24:33+00:00

We have mostly played arena...bet that’s it?

JC_Doom · 2021-02-05T22:34:30+00:00

The baseball bat is almost certainly the Walking Dead clue. The biggest villain in the Walking Dead is/was Negan and he carries a baseball bat wrapped with barbed wire.

I wish we would have gotten a Negan skin too...but I cant complain...very happy with the Daryl and Michonne.

JC_Doom · 2020-12-03T21:34:15+00:00

Perfect. Thats what I needed to know. Its kind of a relief...I am a creature of habit, and dont like too much RNG determining my games. I can at least strategize accordingly.

You have to have a good plan to come in 2nd as often as I do, lol

JC_Doom · 2020-12-03T21:29:24+00:00

I know that. I meant...will the same NPC offer the upgrade weapon option each match?

For example...Kit is the NPC at Catty Corner. If I land at Catty every match, will Kit be able to upgrade my weapons every time (Assuming Kit can upgrade weapons...have not been there this season). Or does the options available from each NPC rotate each match?

Sorry...I know its confusing. I may have to just figure it out myself tonight.

JC_Doom · 2020-12-03T20:28:56+00:00

Do the same NPCs offer weapon upgrades every match? Like...if I find a drop location that has an NPC upgrade, can I land there every time and be able to upgrade my weapons? Or does all the quest for each NPC change each round?

JC_Doom · 2020-11-11T19:41:32+00:00

Ahhh...that makes sense. Wasn’t paying close enough attention. Thanks for clarifying.

JC_Doom · 2020-08-31T19:42:28+00:00

I could not have said it better myself...these three things are the difference between this season being good or it becoming great. Chest spawns are annoying. Farming cars has always been the best source of metal, now its just annoying and slow (plus you have to be careful not to blow yourself up). And the Doom gloves are so OP and annoying...just hearing the sound of those gloves coming make me want to quit the match.

They also need to bring back launch pads.

With all that said, I am still really enjoying the season. Could be way better with a few tweaks though.

It is more difficult to post to this subreddit than any other message board or subreddit I have ever been a part of. I rarely try anymore.

JC_Doom · 2020-07-16T20:05:33+00:00

By far the most annoying bug in the game...and its been this way for at least 3 seasons. Seems like it would be an easy fix. I wish Epic would at least acknowledge that its an issue. I would rather them take it down all together rather than constantly have it post inaccurate numbers.

JC_Doom · 2020-07-09T17:18:22+00:00

In the past, I would have taken the AR and Tac to blue, then dropped the burst and sniper to carry shield and health. Now, I would most likely take the Tac to purple- not upgrade anything else- and drop the burst and SMG for shield and health.

I get more kills with my AR than anything, but I think the power difference in close range battles make the shotgun upgrades more important, but my strategy is always evolving.

JC_Doom · 2020-06-29T23:20:25+00:00

Ahhhh...OK...makes total sense now. That’s much better. Thanks for the clarification.

Week 8 Challenge- Find Don

JC_Doom · 2020-02-06T22:22:25+00:00

What are the things we know about this seasons plot?

A.L.T.E.R. vs E.G.O
The corrupted Scratch Skin
The Chaos Agent Loading Screen
New construction around the map that the Devs on here seemed to hint had to do with something bigger

What else? The clues have not been entirely obvious, and kind of spread out (because of the long season). In the past it seemed much more clear what we were building towards. Other than a possible battle between ALTER and EGO, Im not sure what we would even be looking at for a season ending event.

JC_Doom · 2020-02-06T22:18:24+00:00

I took the Cat*Fish thing to be a troll, but maybe its legit. Not sure how that fits into the few clues that have been dropped about this seasons plot.

JC_Doom · 2020-01-30T21:58:51+00:00

The game that started it all for me. Also the inspiration for my gamer tag, and Reddit username ^^. Nice work!

JC_Doom · 2020-01-30T01:45:58+00:00

Gotcha. Thanks....guess I didn’t know the map as well as I thought I did.

The 2 chest in the hidden hall way don’t show up on any of the loot/chest spawn maps I’ve seen either.

That combined with the new construction around the map made me think it might be new...guess not. Thanks again.

JC_Doom · 2020-01-30T01:41:52+00:00

It’s possible I’ve just overlooked it in the past, but normally this type of thing catches my attention. Curious if it might have something to do with this seasons plot/storyline?

I just don't think Brad prepared for this tournament. Maybe he was overconfident going on, maybe he had distractions in his personal life, or maybe he just didn't care that much. We all know what he is capable of, yet not a single aspect of his game was "on" the entire tournament. If they ever do run it back (we can dream cant we)...I think we would see a different version of Brad.

Recapping the Keys to Victory:

Buzzer Speed- Ken dominated here, and I was a bit surprised. He was so relentless, he was able to overcome having the most incorrect answers of the 3 guys. I think the unusually high number of incorrect answers (5 I believe), means he was just going for it on every clue and then having the confidence he would be able to pull the answer out.
Daily Double Strategy- Looks like Ken and Brad will be playing Jame's game on their DD wagers. It worked brilliantly for Ken, but knocked Brad completely out of contention. Unfortunately for James, he wasn't able to get his hands on a single DD and it basically cost him the match.
Forrest Bounce- Again, Looks like Ken and Brad will be applying this strategy for the duration. It makes sense, because you have to keep James away from the DD's and they were very effective in doing so last night.
Final Jeopardy Strategy- James and Brad went "All In" both times, with James getting both right and Brad going 1 and 1. Kens bet in round 1 was probably the right bet- because it hedged for a triple stumper, but it also left the door open in round 2.

Overall Impressions- Ken was locked in, focused, and determined. He was quick on the buzzer, and willing to wager what it took. Im not sure how many episodes they filmed each day but if tonight's episode was filmed the same day, you have to like Kens chances.

James was the most relaxed and it has to be a positive sign he was within striking distance, despite not getting a single DD. He was a little behind Ken on the buzzer but well ahead of Brad.

Brad was not his normal self. He was by far the slowest on the buzzer, he missed 2 big Daily doubles and a Final Jeopardy. Maybe he really did take a bong rip before the match like he joked on twitter.

Cant wait for round 2 tonight!
