Thread of What You've Eaten, Cooked and/or Drunk Lately

[calibuck]

Just got back from the coast, belated 35th anniversary. Had some good meals in Cambria, and on one night, wifey and I weren't too hungry (nibbles with wine tasting at some good places. Anyway, waited in line for Sea Chest, excellent seafood restaurant, got shut out on a table, but person ahead of us told us about a good chowder place in town. Went there, and had an excellent clam chowder, and some sourdough. Ate our fill, and saved $150 (which we spent on wine the next day).

I have decided to finally try and figure out how to make consistently good pie crusts. Keep my sanity in your thoughts as I embark on this journey

Use Crisco in your crust.

A few weeks ago I had to make a sauce that kind of requires a wine reduction so I bought a $4.99 bottle of moscato and there's still a half a bottle. here goes nothing..

Use Crisco in your crust.

Lard is even better.

LSU fans would disagree.

Was grocery shopping at Aldi last week and happened to be getting meat when they brought out like 20 racks of spare ribs that were fast approaching their sell by date. Got like 7 racks for $15. Smoked a couple already. Doing some more this weekend and watching some Olympics

Aldi ribs are 50/50 man.

Opened many a pack that smelled like a dead animal.

Woah what a steal lol…

I remember maybe a few years ago I went to Aldi and got boneless/skinless chicken thighs for .99 per pound or something wild. Literally bought like 15 packs or something.

I still find the "corndog" nickname for LSU fans comical.
also find it comical that LSU fans have pretty much embraced it and just ran with it.


LSU games are a culinary wonderland, and I doubt (prior to the nickname catching on) that there were very many corndogs being served.
I'm guessing the Auburn fan that started that shit didn't realize that we deep fry EVERYTHING. And what he was smelling was some other sort of fried awesomeness that his hick brain cell couldn't fully comprehend.

I don't buy meat from Aldi, maybe chicken but nothing else. I've had some really bad meat from them

not sure how to break this to you, but those ribs ARE from a dead animal.

It comes from Dixieland Delight by Clay Travis. Maybe? I dunno
