  1. Maybe this becomes a place you can ask questions on food. Or maybe you just answer this question that I actually would like to know. i am hosting a Saturday lunch before the game. Marinated fajitas cooked on the griddle are what has been requested but due to certain events, I have to buy the marinated fajitas from a meat market on Thursday (tomorrow). However, I just read various articles that you shouldn’t marinade for more than 24 hours before cooking for several reasons that all seem logical. Hence my question: Mexican meat market marinated fajitas were marinated but now out of the liquid so can I buy them 48 hours before cooking without affecting the taste or texture? Or even though out of liquid, that length of time would negatively affect the meal? At the root is the definition of marinate I guess.
  2. Have not watched any UNC games. I’m just guessing here so please verify: UNC is playing a lot of players (with great parents) in September that will soon be dentists and stockbrokers and Mack will start playing the better, younger players (who also have great parents) in mid-October due to said better players throwing up in locker room before games?
  3. I used a Treager at like 225 degrees so nothing special. Doesn’t even need to be smoked and you can do this in oven but won’t get a that sweet sweet smoke element. as for 6-7 slices for a family, it’s just me, a wife, and two girls so I’m the only one who eats what one would say is an American portion. They eat like normal Europeans or something.
  4. cured it for seven days and then smoked it for a few hours to he to 152 degrees. Then put it in fridge to firm it up so that you can cut it easier. we vacuum seal in strips of 6-7 so that we only have to defrost a family serving at a time. We also dice some up into cubes to put into meals like rice bowls. Soooo good. And yes, we defrost them and then cook em on cast iron or bake them. as for why cook it the first time? Because I watched it on YouTube and it looked delicious. Don’t know the science.
  5. 10 lbs of Costco pork belly turned into vic Mackey approved cut bacon. Thicc
  6. I bought a 200 foot zip line four years ago for our ranchito and it’s been great. Rogue Series from zip line gear. It was $600 without the tensioning kit that I realized I needed after the purchase. I watched a shit ton of YouTubes for the zip line math. Tested it out with a bucket full of rocks and first one too slow, second one too hot and crashed into the tree. Also bought extra bungee cord brake so kids are slowed down twice before the actual no-shit brake gets hit.
  7. both look fairly equally talented but experience reduces risk/variance (in theory, don’t look at Charlie’s decisions in year 1 vs year 3 or theory busted) so this could be blessing in long run so Arch becomes more consistent. I can’t judge what Arch can do against a good defense yet but can judge Quinn. So I hope Arch gets his experience while Quinn heals and then Quinn comes back and rips shit up again.
  8. You don’t fuck with Graham Gillespie. Also, 46 is akana (I had to look it up).
  9. I’m sorta in same boat with 7.5 acres and five bee hives. Wonder what all these chemicals do to bees? My yard is actually great as I have-and only want - two acres cleared but I’m having hard time keeping my gravel driveway a driveway. Turns into grass very quickly and I’ve burned it off with flamethrower but that takes wayyyy too long.
  10. Went to Yellowstone and Glacier National Park in July. Third time in Yellowstone but first for GNP. While my family and I were on a six mile hike in Yellowstone, ran into a grizzly about forty yards out. He looked at me and said what’s up and kept going. We all shit our pants basically. i also saw one wolf but it was so far away that I didn’t know what it was even with binoculars. But it was at one of those Lamar Valley pull-outs and other folks were verifying it was a wolf and I was eavesdropping. So did I see a wolf? Yes. Did it look like a black lab and so far out for ,e it was fuzzy, yes, so not as exciting as if I were to have seen him clearly. ps I stayed in gardiner at a place called Dreamcatcher and we loved it because kids had lots of other kids to play with all the time so recommend fo families.
  11. Did a Memphis, Nashville, Kansas City bbq road trip one year. Ate at Gus in Memphis and it exceeded expectations.
  12. Great show. Great names. And indira was smoke show.
  13. I’m thankful y’all are better at creating NIL initiatives than choosing restaurants near Airline.
  14. Bingo!!! I believe I was the only person on this site last week who had “aggies will blame a magician for their qb’s performance” on their card. Many of y’all made fun of me for putting it on my board……but who is laughing now.
  15. i figured we would not face Connor. Now I’ll be sad face when he gets hurt in a couple weeks because game is that much easier with him in.
  16. Bought a used whiskey barrel from distillery and made this. Wish I had another at bat at some of the curved cuts but I’m quite pleased overall, imperfections and all. Put in a motion light and shelf in there after scraping a shit-ton of carbon off the inside.
  17. Devin wasn’t even on the bench. Did I miss her transferring? also, that woman announcer sure talked about Franklin a lot.
  18. She made it a little easier to listen to though
  19. In case anyone curious on SEC+ given the above (i hadn’t used it before) https://www.secsports.com/news/2022/05/about-sec-networksec-network-1 Q: What is the difference between SEC Network and SEC Network+? A: SEC Network is a live 24-hour television network. SEC Network+ is a complementary digital platform providing hundreds of additional digital only events to fans through the ESPN App on connected devices. SEC Network+ is not a television channel. Q: How many SEC games will be on ESPN+
  20. Sounds like someone hasn’t met a bunch of the fat dorks from CR in person
  21. I am surprised when stud athletes like you aren’t representing us at the games. It’s a waste for you to be relegated to typing critiques of olympians.
