Their pizza is badass. I miss those long road trips that pass through Coleman either to a buddy’s ranch or O.H. Ivie. In Dallas, my first boss out of college was an older guy originally from Coleman and he was salt of the Earth kind of dude. Tip top. The dove hunting out there used to unbelievably good.

Day-ummn! Definitely try this super simple New Orleans BBQ Shrimp recipe: https://www.neworleans.com/restaurants/traditional-new-orleans-foods/bbq-shrimp/ Winner!

Saw this posted a couple of weeks ago here in Oklahoma and forgot to post. Sighted near McAlester:

What a bunch of fucking douche bags.

That’s a bummer. A great backup idea - Gage Hotel trip. Weather looks to be stellar out there this weekend. I took my wife there on her 50th birthday and she had a fantastic birthday. Great food and pampered amenities for the ladies. I doubt you’d have any trouble booking a room on late notice. One of the very best places to relax.

What the? Hell, I’m a damn Okie and have eaten at Dan’s a “half-a-hunnerd” times. Live a little! Crown & Anchor is the burger I miss though…love that place.

My go-to Roasted salsa: 6-8 Roma tomatoes 1/2 of sweet onion 2-4 garlic cloves 2 jalapenos, stems removed Put all the above on a cookie sheet and throw under the broiler until blackened. Rotate once or twice to make sure they’re evenly blackened. Peel the blacken skin from tomatoes and then add everything into blender with some olive oil, salt, and pinch of Mexican oregano and pinch cumin. Blend until smooth and serve.

I had to dig around my photo library of one of the greatest breakfasts I’ve ever eaten in Carmel, CA. The restaurant called Em Le’s is closed now but I believe owners have reopened under different name, which I’m not sure - Eggs Benedict over corned beef hash. It deserved to have iconic sunbeams and shit radiating from this masterpiece: Monterrey Peninsula is strong in the breakfast game.

Gold! ”Those are some of the biggest pricks on Earth. The fact that they work there I mean that they are relatively disgusting people. They’re the type that aspire to be dog catchers are something like that.”

Agreed. This one hits hard. Never met Mike Leach but I loved the guy. A real person came through, loud and clear. RIP Pirate. You brought a lot of life - to life.

Didn’t know if the fly fishers on this thread had heard the news but we lost one of the greats of the sport Thanksgiving night, Dave Whitlock passed from a stroke. Dave was the consummate gentleman, one of the most talented people I’ve met in life - art, science, writing, fly design - you name it. For the fly fishers, thought you all would enjoy these videos - Kelly Bostian, the former outdoor writer for the Tulsa World, spent a day with Dave at his home in Eastern Oklahoma a couple of years ago. He did an original video on Dave instructing proper roll casts: https://youtu.be/Pb47tNX6yvw He released two additional videos recently. The first is Dave going through an excellent breakdown of a four-part fly cast ( Dave catches a huge rainbow from his spring-fed pond at end of the video): https://youtu.be/XCwBn9YYfx4 The third is Dave going through his fly boxes talking about his favorite flies for fishing in Oklahoma: https://youtu.be/2fl7RC_jfYA Hope you all enjoy. I learned a couple of new things from the master. RIP Dave. One of the very best of the good guys.

Man so I miss HEB. Best ice cream IMO. My consolation is having Braum’s locations within a golf shot in almost every direction.

Amen. Forget those MFf’in peas. Let’s get this back on track…anyone ever been to Iredell Cafe in Iredell, TX? My buddy in Hamilton swears it’s some of best catfish in Texas. The menu looks extremely legit old school cafe. I’m putting this on itinerary on my next trip down Hwy. 281 area.

Whatever it was it wasn’t as good as green beans with bacon.

Only psychedelic mushrooms for me…

Alright boys and girls. I couldn’t find an appropriate topic in short order and created this one pertaining to some old school American meals or restaurants. I apologize in advance if there was a topic already created but I’m three drinks in on the patio after whirlwind business travel for last month. Every small town in Texas and Oklahoma had a damn good cafe that served Old School American dishes. Seems like a dying breed these days. There still are some great ones but not as many as when I was a kid. To start off, here’s Salisbury Steak with Onions. The recipe I’ve used for several years is Ree Drummond’s Salisbury Steak (I’ve tried some of her other recipes and wasn’t wowed but this one has been a staple for several years). Highly recommend: https://www.thepioneerwoman.com/food-cooking/recipes/a10549/salisbury-steak-mashed-potatoes-and-peas/ Talk about the perfect meal for deer lease or camping. Cooking outside always makes a better meal. I wish you all could have smelled this stage: I wanted green beans with a shit ton of bacon but my wife begged that idea. Oh well…Snow peas it is… Photo of me at Texas deer camps across the state these last thirty years:

Dang! Nailed it! Here’s the recipe straight from Feast of Santa Fe cookbook:

This is same situation in eastern Oklahoma. Worse when I hunt out by Ponca City on the Salt Fork River. The deer have soybeans, milo, corn, and winter wheat for miles and miles. They look at a feeder and scowl “poor peasant”. Muy grandes out there though…

You’re making me hungry. I’m especially hungry for this as I’m in Kansas City freezing my ass off at present…GCS would hit the spot.

Leftover turkey and andouille sausage gumbo went down tonight. Roux was dark but broth lightened it up more than I would have thought. Still damn good.

Lane looks like such a douche. Leach is someone who looks like he would keep me entertained for long periods of time shooting the shit. W

Deer camp Thanksgiving, is the best Thanksgiving!

Here ya go: So easy and so good. Hominy is a misunderstood side dish.

No full spread but the recipe for Perini Ranch Green Chili Hominy kicked serious ass. New item on the rotation.
