  1. Our kids loved the Navy Pier, street hot dogs, and riding the CTA from downtown to Wrigley. It's been 15 years since they were kids, so YMMV.
  2. Switch over to a TollTag and avoid the upcoming fiasco. https://www.ntta.org/get-a-tolltag
  3. And I have hit several Allsup's green chile burrito's this week, so all is not lost.
  4. I know that I am risking the little bit of cred that I have on Surly, but I'm in Midland in a trial this week and am busy and hungry. There is a Dickey's right next door to my hotel. Half pound of pork burnt ends, along with beans and slaw to go with my cheap bourbon out of a hotel paper cup. Not bad at all. Living the dream!
  5. Great place. It is the old train terminal in Hillsboro. Old school CFS with two sides. It is west of I-35 before you get to the courthouse.
  6. Hard 8 is not good. Allsups burrito is a great choice if you can find one.
  7. I have a fetish for 2008/2009 MB E350s with 6 cylinders. That is the last year the stick was in the middle, the way that G-d ordained how cars should be. AutoTraders is a great site.
  8. Not to totally change the subject (OK, I just did it!) - R&K Cafe II in the old Hillsboro train depot does an awesome CFS. Cool place.
  9. Animal Birth Control Clinic on Valley Mills? WTF?
  10. I've done it with rice flour. Worked fine. (Then I nearly killed a woman who had shellfish allergies!)
  11. Cookie's in McKinney is a legend. Just east of old downtown McKinney.
  12. I like brisket just fine, but when it starts competing with steak price-wise, steaks win out every time with me.
  13. Yep. Gunnar signed with Texas in December 2020. Herman fired in January 2021.
  14. That just leaves somebody else open. Good to be a weapon!
  15. He was always on winning teams in Littleton, CO He is a solid player.
  16. Gunnar tells a funny story about his weight. When he first showed up on campus, Texas coaches asked him to put on weight. He then added something like 50 lbs. He reported the next season and he was asked to drop some weight! Team player!
  17. Gunnar is a really good kid. Very real in one on one interactions at Burnt Ends events. Great to see him looking solid out from under the shadow of J.T.
  18. It's now a chain, but I think that was their second store. It's is a Memphis institution. Fun place.
  19. Second on Gus's Fried chicken down by the river in Memphis. But stay away from The Rendevous, unless under-rendered, under-seasoned pork ribs happen to be your thing.
  20. "Fast cook" of beans isn't worth it. May as well open a can of them.
  21. Their pricing was a non-starter for us.
