  1. Wow, I went to Yardbird in Miami Beach tonight because I love their food so much. But I had never checked out their bourbon selection because most places here are focused on tequila and rum. I had Weller Antique, but there were so many good choices. The bartender even comped me small taste of EH Taylor. Here's the list: (they're out of most BTAC stuff) https://www.runchickenrun.com/miami-menus/#beverages
  2. Better listen to him. He's in premed.

  4. Hot damn, Champ made my day! That pulled pork was wonderful, and I tried a bite of my son's pancake and it really is delicious and decidedly different than most pancakes I've had. FarleyBucks is the most genuinely fitting place for a group of folks to hit up when there are BBQ enthusiasts mixed in with people who like other things. Oh, it's also a fabulous feeling that I have one of those beef ribs and a pound of butterfinger brisket in the fridge to complete the smoked meat trifecta when I'm ready for it. Surly, this place is legit!
  5. I'd like to stick my pecorino.
  6. We mock what we don't understand.
  7. This is terrific news. Hey, you were respectful to the loyal customers, but G-Town has been void of great BBQ. And your focus on a short time from order to food arrival doesn't hurt at all. As I said to you, the Island Time culture is pervasive here, and this will stand out as a breath of fresh saltwater air, especially for those UTMB folks who punch time clock for lunch.
  8. It was seriously delicious. SMU, sorry I missed you this time.
  9. Caught a hanger...
  10. Given that your username checks out, I believe these rumors are legit. I mean you are the wop genius that got the 411 on John and Jeremy Ryan, right!?!
  11. This is totally true, but the good news is that Charleston is only a 4.5 hour drive where you can get BBQ from the best Texas Pitmaster to have ever gone to open shop in the Southeast. https://lewisbarbecue.com/story/
  12. Our first trip to the New Farley Girls impressed. I loved those ribs, Champ. Also got a side of the gouda grits, which rocked. My son had some pancakes which I sampled and loved. All around it was a terrific brunch with friends (they were impressed too, particularly with the ribs). As mentioned before, I'll be back often. It will be fun to watch the entire transition to Bucks over time.
  13. Thanks, Champ. Your Brunch sounds amazing. And I agree with Neonmoon about the safe place comment. I can't imagine running a restaurant, and I imagine starting off the re-branding and menu alterations would be damn near impossible to avoid kinks. That's why I came here...I figured if you were swamped then someone else would chime in. No matter what, I'll be coming by early and often this summer and will get the word out.
  14. Has anyone on this board visited FarleyBucks this week? I was out of town until last night and I called this morning to inquire about the menu. The nice lady who answered the phone told me that they just had the regular menu (I asked whether there were any Bucks BBQ items available today) and said they close at 3 pm. I'm just asking for planning purposes. I've got a friend that lives here in G-Town and he's leaving Monday for most of the summer and he wants to try Champ's meat before leaving town. Champ, I thought very seriously about texting you but I am guessing you're probably under some stress to get things right at FG and I thought I'd ask here instead.
  15. Damn, and I thought the 404 in Nashville was expensive... https://the404nashville.com/whiskey/
  16. Ugh, Dandy Don just turned over in his grave.
  17. The Cotton Bowl vs LSU was a great display of Roy Williams as a beast, but never forget Nebraska 2002. 13 catches for 161 yds, 2 TDs, and the longest catch was only 27 yds. After being dumb the 1st 3 series, Greg Davis finally decided to let Roy beast against the Huskers. Most of his catches were short hitches because they played off the line so far and he broke tackles. (I thought he had 80 catches or so, but looked it up and found it was just 13) Check it out at the 26:13 mark. He could've set an all-time record if that was the goal. Definitely one of the greats in NCAA, possibly the best Longhorn WR.
  18. Username and av check out.
  19. Congrats, Champ! You'll be <2 miles from my house. Can't wait 'til you get to G-Town! (don't know if you still have my cell number but I have yours). If not, PM me (or Derka) if you need anything...
  20. Those jerseys/ logo is one of the best in the nba OK, so I'm not typically the guy that notices this kind of thing, but what's the story on the lower case "et" in "ROCKetS?" I would guess it's to fit the whole thing on the jersey but I'd like to hear the discussion. Not hating at all, just curious...
