  1. Sounds like you may be struggling mightily there. Where is your temp flat along the Thames?
  2. I would gladly go in your place. I could be all business-man Pearland-y and shit. Maybe some pics of your wife for my wallet, just so people don’t get confused. Better yet, send your wife with me. I’ll keep her safe. You can stay home and protect the homestead.
  3. Not Gumbo, but I made a very serviceable pot of Creole last week, starting with some smoked thighs. Had to start with a snack first, while I waited on the thighs.
  4. A reverse sear from the other night at the House Of irth. Thawed the last two end pieces of our hand-cut filets, which is why we trussed them to make them looks pretty. 225 oven til 115-degrees. 10 minutes rest followed by a sear 2 minutes per side. Finished with a quick Garlic Wine Reduction before serving. Basically, it was an excuse to properly enjoy the Ghost Block.
  5. Screw Hobby. Book that long weekend extended stay now and have yourself a fine time. You deserve it.
  6. I wanna love it, but it’s just so contrived and ridiculous. Still watching it, though. What say you, Surl?
  7. And these go on top of the burner? And then the pan when you’re cooking? And it all works? Fascinating.
  8. Started with the two pieces of Swiss, then some shredded Cheddar mixed in with the Pulled Pork. Then the American on top (ran out of Swiss).
  9. Your Mom offered, but I kept her busy with other things.
  10. That math works just fine for me!
  11. Made some Cubans yesterday with my own Ham, my own Pulled Pork, my own Habanero Pickles, and my own Mustard Sauce, along with 3 kinds of Cheese. The nap on the couch after lunch was glorious.
  12. That is quite the story. Grueling, indeed. I truly hope it all comes together as planned. Sounds like you’ve earned it. And kudos for just having the balls to do it in the first place. Quite jealous of your opportunity to do so.
  13. Moving to London? Interesting. Are you excited about that? Mind providing some details?
  14. People showed up. Some drank beer. He came out onstage. Played guitar. Sang. Kinda like that.
  15. Total pos rep. Browned Andouille goes in my Gumbo every time, along with my homemade Tasso. Any other meat is purely optional, mood and/or availability dependent at the time. Your general attitude about Gumbo is spot-on, indeed! Cheers!
  16. Going to see Phil Lewis (L.A. Guns) play at Warehouse Live in Houston tonight. Been 6 months since I’ve seen a show.
  17. Check out Little Palm Island in Florida to see if it meets your needs.
  18. Buncha broke-ass mofos had to give up and just plan staycations, I guess. I have a good friend from Corpus who packed up the family and took them all to Lake Conroe. No idea why. But...at least they did something. Said "fuck those beach restrictions" and left Corpus in the rearview mirror, I guess.
  19. Not exactly sure where you might be, but bar tab is on me if you're in the area and need a friendly face. Just sayin'.
