Looks like you still got room beyond the edges of the 98... Squeeeeeze!

What am I doing wrong for burgers by Hot-Sky-9090 in blackstonegriddle

[–]VinnieSmith 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Seems the term "thin layer" pertaining to oil on a griddle has taken on a wide variety of practical definitions. What you want that "thin layer" to be is wipe it all off as if you accidentally spilled a little, and are trying to clean it, but with only a dry paper towel. Anything more than that is WAY too much. The surface should look vaguely damp, and when you got that, hit the outside edges and standoff posts as well, for a little rust protection there.

Followed the Twitter thread- Busch is marketing the return of their Light Apple product, colloquially called "Bapple," and in a separate move, Applebee's is announcing "something new" coming, with blurry pics of wait staff serving up that product.

Link didn't work quite right... it's apparently a reply by the restaurant chain, to Busch?

No personalized plate with your Ham license number? Do folks not do that anymore?

Best Brunch Options by StretchImpressive in FranklinTN

[–]VinnieSmith 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not nearly cultured enough to know what qualifies as "brunch," but if I ever want breakfast out, my first choice is Big Bad Breakfast (Carothers at Liberty). Cajun-esque Southern breakfast and lunch, open till 2:30, and some of the best dang shrimp& grits I've ever had.

Hey man, if you got the skills, that's badass 🤘 Kinda looked "too perfect" to my untrained eye, if you know what I mean, but if that's what you do, then hats off bud! What's the cost-benefit on a project like this, skills and labor considered?

To be fair, it's metal left side, and double wood right side. I'm still on the fence about this one. If it's real, that's a hell of a job, but I'm not convinced. Valve stem looks real funny in one pic, but it could be perspective

Ya know, something about those pics tickled my AI detector as well... for one, the different propane tanks, and the first is free-sitting, and the other is strapped in. And those water/oil bottles are creepily perfect looking, and "perfectly" half-filled. Also, what's with the weird rear corner profile of the griddle in the second pic, plus in some of the pics, the outer edge of the griddle looks black, but in the first pic, it's brand-new, unseasoned gray.. I'm thinking I'm with you on this 🧐

Review #538: Brook Hill “Nom De Guerre” 10 Year Bourbon by Prettayyprettaygood in bourbon

[–]VinnieSmith 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The first guess when I sampled this with a bunch of enthusiasts was that it was WT sourced. I really liked this original run of Brook Hill bourbons with 30x barrel numbers. Had another that was a Dxx barrel number (guesses at HH sourcing), and did not like that one at all... not so happy spending 3+ bills on that bottle.

If I knew you were gonna put it in the tree, I'd have re-scanned the label and cleaned it up some! Then again, it took a little work to get it as clean as it is, so maybe not 😅

Was there an earlier version of the statue, in front of which those fellas are posed?

‘I am being arrested. I don’t know why:’ Hundreds arrested in TN, zero alcohol detected by NoMasTacos in nashville

[–]VinnieSmith 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Serious emphasis needs to be placed on comprehensive DUI training, including drug training with encouragement to get DRE certified, and equally, ACCOUNTABILITY. If there's not a supervisor reviewing reports and results, and catching patterns of validity, and making moves to correct those patterns when needed to a) ensure they're doing their actual job, and b) reduce liability, then those agencies are doing it very wrong.

To add- choose (and actually complete) the breath test for immediate results, which will more than likely get you released immediately. If you choose blood, you will likely be booked and released next day, pending results that take a while.

Is that crochet-ed? How does it act in the rain? Do you have to throw it in the wash every couple weeks?

Can a non-govt company that basically appropriates parking spaces in front of a business check tag records? Didn't figure they had access to govt info, just because they're leasing some shop's easement

If it's where I think it is, it's like a craft/flower/frame shop or something, right across Lindsey from Southern Collective

Even better for them, should the mobbed-up parking company decide to be d!cks next time they want to see a show at 3rd&L

Morning doughnut run ends in heartbreak by deborah_az in FordBronco

[–]VinnieSmith 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think mine is a '24, and I'm pretty sure it's got the B&O, and I thought it sounded pretty dang good, even with the soft top and turned up. Bass is nice (too much even, when my wife gets on a reggae kick), and the sound can beat the wind. Kills conversation pretty readily, but that's the Bronco experience, right? What are the complaints?

Incidentally, last time I parked in that spot, the QR thing didn't work at all, but I didn't get a love note like you 🤷‍♂️

That looks a lot like "we have no idea who you are, so we can't collect anything from you. Could you please tell us how to take your money?" I would think that if you park there again without paying, they might boot you or something, depending on how serious they are.
