  1. i leave that thin film separating them that they're originally packed with, freeze flat, thaw in package at room temp (or over a bowl of hot water), warm gently on a comal. im embarrassed to say that i only just figured this out this last trip 😆🤘
  2. i don't know if this was anything specific. i divided that giant chuck roast from Costco into various packages, this one i envisioned as beef carnitas, but ended a lot closer to carne guisada. but a completely different flavor profile. hey, my algorithm feeds me lots of mexican/texmex, i dunno man 😆...so anyway this was just kinda various techniques and flavors i know are delicious, an amalgam of 'mexican braised meat dishes' 😛 roasted tomatillos, tomatoes, onion, garlic, jalapeños, and a few rehydrated chili pods, added oregano, dash of comino, chicken bouillon, pepper, blended very well used my rendered tallow 😁 seared the meat, then onions, made a roux, added bit of tom paste, then sauce, returned meat, added a ton of cilantro stalks, cooked covered on med-low for about 2 1/2 hours, stirring every 15 mins or so to keep from sticking... delicioso! also...i made my own refried beans, started with a plain can of pintos, used the tallow... holy shit these were ridiculous 🤤 ETA yeah those are HEB butter tortillas...i brought two packs home a couple weeks ago, divided them into packs of five, vacuum-sealed and froze them 😆
  3. mitochondrial challenges? pffft the force will take care of that!

    ikr
  5. exactly 🙄
  6. nah when it comes to Zeus even DT is like like Johnny Sack. except insane.
  7. Zeus is #97 lol
  8. oh there's a pattern here alright, but it's not anywhere close to what this dumbass thinks it is... tell him to fuck off and ignore 🙄
  9. oh. that^ comment is so stupid and divorced from reality i just assumed he was being facetious lol.
  10. yeah, whenever i feel a glimmer of hope i remind myself... the cruelty, the stupidity, the destruction, the grift, the tackiness, the sheer disgusting grossness of it all, everything... this is what the majority of my fellow citizens want. they voted for this with a clear, written plan right in front of them. so...fuck it. this is America. we are exactly who history and the world always thought we were.
  11. thanks! now im looking forward to searing/roasting something lol and about what i thought on the garlic press 🤔 i've just never found one that doesn't create a big mess 😝 as someone who eschews 'jar-lic' i thought it would be handy when needed for just a quick add, but obviously not even worth the mess 😆 i already use both my microplane and mortar/pestle, i'll just stick with those 👍
  12. laws for thee, not for me. peasants!
  13. excellent work all around! ok guys i have two questions and think this is probably the best place to ask... one...what exactly does one do with beef tallow? 🤔 rendered about two cups from some large Costco chuck roast trimmings. first time i've done it, was kind of an impulse...so now im like 'ok cool, now what do i do with this??' open to suggestions! two...does a good garlic press actually exist? one that doesn't squeeze out the sides and make a bigger mess than just chopping? 😝 looking for recs. thank you for your attention to this matter!
  14. wtf aren't sequential replies supposed to merge themselves?
  15. https://www.denver7.com/news/politics/gov-polis-frustrated-by-trump-admins-label-of-colorado-as-a-sanctuary-state-in-refute-to-doj-demands Polis is 'frustrated' 😐 im afraid my governor is failing to rise to the occasion, to meet it with the vehement opposition required in this new reality. Newsom and Pritzker are setting the bar.
  16. also CU Denver
  17. as the one who did 100% of the planning and prep for our move...pretty clever business plan. movers, pods, shipping cars, storage, deliveries, etc etc...in addition to just prepping/selling house...i was retired and had all the time in the world for research, bids, phone calls, coordinating dates, etc. to be fair, my mate did about 85% of the packing 😊 but i provided the schedule. it was a pretty good trade off and being in IT... yeah i had an actual project plan 😆
  18. https://www.politico.com/news/2025/08/22/covid-shot-hhs-recommendations-fall-00519315 at least my mate is over 65 😒

    coach and players singing his praises tonight on news (leadership, moxie, has made a really good pre-season impression, etc)... but he may still get cut by Tuesday if Broncos don't keep three qbs. but, like...three deep at qb seems like a good idea, no?? 🤨
