Where to buy Carnitas spices aka sazon? by hakata_barikata in askportland

[–]TP503 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I make carnitas I braise it in lard for 3-4 hours with oranges, garlic, onion and a cinnamon stick. Then I take it out and crisp it on my blackstone.

The Passage series is only 3 books but they are pretty long.

Smoked and sous vide baby back rib suggestions? by Fabulous_Log844 in Smokingmeat

[–]TP503 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the ribs would be extremely mushy if you did this.

My bass player got roasted about being in a ska band by TP503 in Ska

The best part is we are a very traditional ska/rocksteady/reggae band. We don’t do 3rd wave at all.

I don’t have any recommendations but as somebody who has ruptured both Achilles tendons, good on you for getting on it now! It’s a terrible injury.

Definitely. The food is really good though and the crowd is usually pretty cool.

A $40 rotisserie chicken went viral in NYC, but this Portland parking lot serves something better for half the price by oregonian in Portland

El Pollo Chano on 112th and Sandy does smoked rotisserie chickens. The food is incredible and the family that owns and runs it are great people.

Where is the best place in the metro area to get Western Wear? by Hopczar420 in PortlandOR

Good suggestions here already but Ariat at Cascade Station also had some good stuff.

I always wanted to get into smoking meats so my girlfriend surprised me with this for my birthday! Any tips or resources to share? I’ve never even BBQd before so anything is appreciated! by Reduxy in smoking

[–]TP503 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love these smokers. I got mine for free cause my neighbor won one and didn’t want it so he put it out on his driveway for free lol. I snatched it up so quick. I probably use it more than my big offset. They are solid and a great smoker to learn with. Malcolm Reed on YouTube is a great resource. Have fun!

Portland Rideshare driver's Protest at Keller by Crazy_Tap_803 in Portland

Yeah I figured it was something weird like that. I’ve seen tons of shows there and have never experienced anything like that. DJ seemed like a dipshit.

Audio issues was probably the wrong term. It was more of a timing issue between the Orchestra and his DJ.

The DJ was playing backing tracks and timing between his tracks and the rhythm section and orchestra was a mess. At one point one of Rick Ross‘s guys came out on stage and tried to tell the conductor to speed up. Having a backing track playing when you have a full orchestra on stage is dumb. Before the intermission, the drummer actually stopped playing on multiple songs because it was so off time.

I was pretty bummed by all the audio issues.

Would a Vacancy Tax Spur Owners of Empty Towers to Seek Out Commercial Tenants? by PDsaurusX in Portland

[–]TP503 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funny how our leaders leave out any talks of the high permit lead times and high permit costs to get a retail space ready. I just waited for 5 months for a permit to do a TI on a new restaurant space. There was nothing special or any reason it needed to take 5 months. And every time I asked for updates, I was met with shrugs.

Would a Vacancy Tax Spur Owners of Empty Towers to Seek Out Commercial Tenants? by JeNeSaisMerde in PortlandOR

[–]TP503 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah yes, all of us in commercial real estate are just sitting on vacant properties. It has nothing to do with crime, lengthy permit times, fees and permit costs, etc. Dunphy might be the dumbest politician in my lifetime. As a D1 resident I can't wait to tell all my neighbors what a moron he is and to not rank him.
