  1. Ran the chilis through the blender with a little of the broth then mixed the chili sauce back into the pot. Added some chili powder at this step. After about 3 hours, I skimmed off the fat (and reserved) then removed the veggies, and shredded the meat and added back to the pot.
  2. Birria Tacos or Red Tacos seem to be all the rage. Decided to make an effort. Started with chuck roast, some short ribs, guajillo chiles, Mexican oregano, onion, garlic, carrots and some water in pot. Got it to a boil and let the chilis hydrate in the water for 30 minutes. Starting to come together.

  4. So what word did you enter for the second row? And if you missed all letters on the first, what Is the strategy of repeating a letter in the second? That's a bold move Cotton.
  5. Took me 5. I wasn't sure if a letter could be used more than once. Thanks for sharing. I will try to attempt daily. Wordle 201 5/6 ⬜🟨🟨⬜⬜ 🟨🟩⬜⬜⬜ ⬜🟩⬜🟨⬜ 🟩🟩🟨⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  6. It pains me to say this, but I respect LSU for balling tonight. They could have pulled an Aggy and dodged this game, but they donned their unis and took the field. Football players play football. Dorks hide behind excuses.
  7. Some Okie: "College football is stale and boring."
  8. Caesar's sports books has a newish app that they are pushing. It makes gambling a bit easier, and they are (or were) giving away some bonuses for signing up for the app and the service. You have to load cash in the app in person, and you have to collect your payout in person, but the rest of it is pretty easy. It is nice to be sitting in a restaurant watching a game and drop a few dollars on a bet without having to find a window. Also @Knoxtnhorn, you can fill out cards for your bets and just hand the guys at the window your cards. I like taking a stack of cards to the bar and sitting there drinking for hours while I make stupid parlay bets.
  9. Had a lot of fun. Enjoyed the pavilion area outside of the stadium before the game. Had some pretty good pre-game ballpark food. The jalepeno cheese sausage dog was legit good. Washed it down with a couple of Coors yellabellies. Got to our seats, and yes they were way up there. Could see well enough between watching the big board and watching the field. Drank many beers, a margarita thing and shared decent nachos with daughter. Bathrooms were clean. Movement in and out of stadium was orderly. Very glad we went.
  10. Stub Hub has about the same prices as all the other ticket resellers. Any other options on tickets besides standing around outside before the game and hoping to not get ripped off?
  11. I'm down to go. Just trying to set my expectations.
  12. Never been to the stadium. How bad is the view from section 414--southside, very top section, about 35 yard line? Can you at least get a good view on the huge screens? Any help is appreciated. Kids want to go so I am no about to pay for top-tier seats.

    Wicked Good Charcoal is wicked good. Best I have used--and I have used just about all the "premium" brands. Ace Tru Value will order it, and you can pick up in store for no special charges. https://wickedgoodcharcoal.com
  15. Love BA. My two recs: Steaks by Luis https://www.steaksbyluis.com/ Floreria Atlantico http://www.floreriaatlantico.com.ar/
  16. Yet, there is some struggling program out there right now salivating at the thought of hiring one of Saban’s assistants because because.
  17. The Cabin in the Woods Watched it for the first time this weekend. Clever Stupid Interesting Original Funny Thrilling And best of all: Exactly 90 minutes. The perfect length for a clever, stupid, interesting, original, funny, and thrilling movie.

  19. Early '90s and I am dating a girl whose parents had returned from overseas deployment to live in Oklahoma. She wants me to meet them so we drive to that shithole state. Second day there, we need to escape for some truck lovin' on the bench seat and we decide to go eat before heading back to their house. In the distance I spy a CiCi's---had never heard of it. We go in and get a table. While consuming shit food, a guy in a sports coat and tennis shoes walks over and asks if he can talk with us a bit. He says he noticed that I am wearing a Texas hat and wants to know what I think of his fine dining establishment. I said I thought it was fine or some such. He says they are thinking about expanding into Texas and wants to know if I believe it will be a success. I say "sure, whatever." TLDR--You can thank me for introducing all-you-can-eat lard-ass Texans to the glory that is CiCis.
  20. Bought $1 tickets to the Okie State v TTU game last night to take the kids (yes, tickets were $1 each). From parking, to stadium entrance to actual game atmosphere, it was pretty solid. I was impressed. The crowd was probably 75% capacity so that was cool as well. The girls enjoyed the pregame festivities and seeing the tribute to the mascot that was being retired. The product on the field, however, was terrible--and really for both teams. I was shocked that Okie State looked at inept as Tech. I went to a 4A high school playoff game on Friday night and there was more creativity on offense and passion displayed by the players. I was particularly shocked that Cumbie didn't go for broke and let it all hang out on offense. If you are going to score 0, do it with style. We left a little after the third quarter started because everyone including me saw that it was not getting any better and we were all tired (I had gotten up at 3:30 a.m. to fish a bass tournament). BTW, the biggest cheer of the night was when the suspended radio crew came on the field to help present an award to some retiring media producer that worked for TTU. Also saw several "Free Jensen & Harris t-shirts"
  21. What if you randomly selected 24 players from the portal and then had them play against the Horns? What would the line be? Give me Vatos Del Portal -3
  22. I was going to type this argument last night but I wasn't up for the fights I assumed it would start. Texas High School coaches all think they have talent deficits and they see running the Leach system as a way to get their crappy Jimmys to match up with another team's better Joes. That air raid system is the great equalizer in their minds--"look what Tech did with it with those 2 stars...." Go watch just about any high school game, and you will see spread v. spread. The most athletic players get moved to offense--and often times to the skill spots. It works 90% of the time 30% of the time. TLDR: Leach ruined Texas high school football.
  23. Just heard this for the first time as a cover. Fantastic. Very different vibe.
  24. This grill/smoker intrigues me. I am not a fan of food smoked on pellet smokers. This seems a bit more legit in that you can use lump. I would be interested in a review. The end product you produced looks great. I have built and sold a competition offset smoker--stick burner. I am too old to deal with the constant managing an offset requires. I like this more automated approach as long as we can stay away from pellets.
