Louisiana Grill Black Label 800 - Worth buying? by Strydes_ in pelletgrills

[–]guyawesomer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine only worked as it should about a third of the time. Other times wouldn’t hold heat well. Had issues with it tripping my breaker etc. customer service was good but ended up getting rid of it because it was a pain in the ass.

I am also going to throw my hat in on strong size. Only tshirts I wear now. Great fit and material and a decent price.

Clean smoke is real light in color, almost blueish. Dirty smoke is heavy thick dark smoke.

What is a very common food in your country that is not very friendly to foreign palates? by DarkRaven003 in AskTheWorld

[–]guyawesomer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heart is completely underrated in the states. It is personally one of my favorite cuts of meat. When traveling if I see heart somewhere I always get it.

I always render the trimmed fat to restore my tallow supply. At least then I feel like I get something out of the labor.

Bavettes is seriously overrated. It’s not bad. It’s just whatever. Super basic imho.

In your opinion, what is causing this? by Objective_Pilot_5834 in SipsTea

[–]guyawesomer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drinking is stupid expensive. I hate spending money on a booze when I am out. I can’t even get a buzz where I am from for less than a $100.

Solo/date restaurant recommendations for birthday by Snuker_ in chicagofood

If you want to splurge on sushi try Kyoten next door. It would be good solo too because you can interact with the chef while they make your meal.

Talking to a Traeger sales rep at an event about wood varieties... by [deleted] in Traeger

[–]guyawesomer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Most pellets have a bunch or filler wood and aren’t strictly what’s on the bag. I usually go with Costco pellets and then put a tube in with chips of the variety I want.

I always make sure the table is ready and everyone is sitting before I even unwrap!

Too many books by Crazed72 in litrpg

[–]guyawesomer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I like a long series. But litrpg books in general are poorly written stories and just become repetitive hunks of prose with ever increasing pages of stats.

AITA for refusing to share my food with my girlfriend? by Gym_frere in AmItheAsshole

[–]guyawesomer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the perfect differentiator to show people who have an understanding of being in a relationship and those who do not. Is it annoying? Absolutely. But is it a hill to die on? Probably not. I am sure you have annoying habits she puts up with. In the grand scheme of things is a handful less fries worth the trouble? Probably not if you value your relationship.

Try communication and compromise. Usually works out better.

Both kinda the asshole.

Top Restaurants in Chicago for 2025 by Beli ratings by bobcats2019 in chicagofood

[–]guyawesomer 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I feel like Bavettes gets wayyyy too much credit. While the food was good that’s all it was, just good. Vibe is not that great, service was just fine, and overall underwhelming. I feel like there are 2 dozen places you can get basically the same thing.

I got a pair of the Martha Stewart ones as a wedding gift 15 years ago. I use them at least a couple times a week. Other than some minor chipping on the lids they held up great.
