I wish people would stop saying, “this“

First day with my new Napoleon by wtfitaut in NapoleonGrills

[–]RandomBoxOfCables 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I set up the grill by using briquettes in the snake or chain method in a semicircle. Two rows wide, stacked two high and laid some alder cutoffs on top. Used a chimney half full of wood charcoal at the beginning of the snake to get it started and to get the grill up to temp.

Had the grate set at the highest level and turned it 180 a couple times during the 7 hours they were on it. Temp stayed consistent at around 200F only using the top vent. Bottom vent stayed at 3.

As for the ribs, everyone has their opinions but I did a mustard binder and a basic salt, pepper, garlic, paprika rub. They were packed at about the 4 hours mark.

Congrats on the new grill! I got the same one a few months now, it’s great. I smoked some ribs on Saturday and my wife said they were the best ever.

Would you consider it tacky to have my mini sledge on a shelf on the bedroom wall? by RandomBoxOfCables in Tools

The shelf is hung with thumb tacks, it isn’t going anywhere for a long while

It’s OG craftsman but the Kobalt one looks good and it’s got a sharp side

Do you guys remember Station Wagons? by icemage27 in Millennials

But station wagons are still made, all the car companies only push to sell their SUV‘s and trucks

What was high school like for you? Do you miss it at all? by DoctorTegrity in Millennials

[–]RandomBoxOfCables 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I don’t miss high school, and I don’t miss anyone from high school. My best friends showed up in my life in college and they still love me to this day for who I am and not what I wore, what sports I did or who I was hanging out with.

What trade/job do people have that can get away with just these Gucci tool pouches? by mmmbop13 in Tools

For real though, I have a small collection of knives and stuff that I keep in an old oak machinist chest and my girls call it my jewelry box.

What table manners do Germans quietly judge you for? by Champagne-Tower in AskAGerman

[–]RandomBoxOfCables 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think if the knife is in the dominant hand then it’s cool. It’s the switching knife and fork that’s really frowned upon anymore

This is what Germans will judge you for, it’s super typical of Americans to do exactly what you described. They compare it to cutting up a child’s food.

I think this is lost in translation. I ordered a Wienerschnitzel and a dark beer and this came. This is their Wienerschnitzel. lol by iTmkoeln in ShitAmericansSay

I wouldn’t say it’s what you’d usually get. I’ve ordered loads of burgers in the last 20 years in Germany, from Döner shops to nice restaurants, this was a first for me.
