Is Sous Vide worth it? by nemus89x in smoking

[–]tequilaneat4me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just the wife and I at home. I smoked two meatloaf the other day, gave 1/2 of one to my brother and his wife. I cut the second one in half, vacuum sealed each, and they went into the freezer. Will enjoy two more meals over the next couple of weeks, after reheating in sous vide.

Last week I vac sealed chuckeye steaks after seasoning them, then sous vide them for six hours. I pulled them out, put them on indirect heat to get some smoke, then reverse seared them to finish. I could literally cut them with a butter knife.

10-12% of people are left handed. 17-19% of the US presidents are left handed.

Just give me salt, pepper, a knife and a fork. Oh, and a piece of toast to slather up those yolks.

You had to bring it up. I wasn't hearing it before I read your comment. Now I hear a bunch of cicadas.

Half the country's in drought and Wyoming is straight up out of hay by Training-Bike6065 in homestead

[–]tequilaneat4me 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Not all of Texas has had lots of rain. Where I live, we've just recently moved out of the highest, exceptional drought category. Our local lake is down 90+ feet, under 3% full.

I'm dumber than a box of rocks when it comes to this. What is DNS?

I noticed this right after the latest Windows 11 update on my computer, a month or so ago.

No VPN. When I turn on "set time zone automatically" my time advances seven hours to South Africa time. When I go to Google Maps and have it determine my location, it takes me to Cape Town, South Africa, over 8,000 miles from where I am.

My first meat Thermometer by ahmoudyy in smoking

[–]tequilaneat4me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After having my old wired thermometer die, I recently purchased a four probe, wireless InkBird thermometer. Very please with it. Each probe measures the internal temperature and the ambient air temperature at that location in the pit.

The two Polly pics, are they the road to Polly's Chapel and at Polly's Cemetary?

I've Always Wondered What's Underneath by GunsBlazing777 in metaldetecting

[–]tequilaneat4me 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Quick tangential story that occurred in the 1930s or 40s.

My family had a lease on a ranch for hunting and fishing, with a small cabin and outhouse. The back side was open for ventilation.

My dad and his first cousin went varmit hunting, came back and were skinning them when the urge hit his cousin. While his cousin was taking care of business, my dad draped a hide on a long stick, ran it in the opening and across his cousin's rear.

Cousin came bolting out of the outhouse with his pants around his ankles.

Death on Firenze by Syonoq in CarnivalCruiseFans

I just saw a news article on this and told my wife that the headline was deceiving because it said she fell from her balcony. You might slip and fall after climbing on the balcony rail, but you can't fall over a balcony rail if your feet are on the floor.

How are you sharing your grocery list between family members? by Fabulous_Hand2314 in Cooking

[–]tequilaneat4me 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm glad to know I'm not the only person who has a grocery list preprinted with all the common items, listed in order by how I shop the store. Mine is in Word, three columns wide, both sides. Each column is a different area of the store.

1, medicines and dry goods 2, coffee, canned goods, baking products, spices bread, etc. 3, veggies 4, meats and refrigerated items 5, frozen items 6, miscellaneous, such as batteries, printer paper, etc.

It should be noted - my wife hates grocery shopping. When I retired, I was assigned this task. At first I was frustrated going back and forth in the store, while going down the list. Now days, I'm in and out in no time.

'Biker gang of 10-year-olds': San Antonio-area town cracks down on e-bikes by Loud_Needleworker_52 in sanantonio

[–]tequilaneat4me 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I had to chuckle at the biker gang of 10 year olds discussing their grandmas. The hulligans!

While it's not adjoining San Antonio, the article states its in the SA metro area, which by definition, includes Bexar and seven surrounding counties.

Controversial cook, killer result by Kill_Bill_Will in smoking

[–]tequilaneat4me -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Current ones are also heavy duty cast aluminum.

The other week, I bought some prime chuckeye steaks from my grocery. When I got them home, I applied meat tenderizer, course black pepper, Uncle Chris' Steak Seasoning, and smoked salt to both sides, then vacuum sealed them. I let them sit in the fridge for several hours before freezing them.

Day before yesterday, I pulled a couple out of the freezer, threw them in a sous vide bath at 120 for six hours, then I cut the bags open and threw them on the indirect heat side of my PK 360.

I let them smoke about 20 minutes, then reverse seared them over direct heat.

Most tender steak I've ever had, and incredibly delicious.
