  1. Only thing I ever ordered at Rudy's. Also a standard at Ruby's BBQ off Guadalupe back in the day. Theirs was extra spicy.
  2. User ID checks 👍... 😄
  3. Saint Arnold - Spring Bock, 6.9% Alc. 👍 Managed to find a six-pack still hanging around at Total Wine. Out of an unusual act of generosity for a sith lord, I left the three remaining singles for other poor, hapless souls jonesing for this seasonal brew that might better be called Saint Arnold's Crack.
  4. Saint Arnold - Amber Ale, 6.2% Alc 👍 Homemade doublemeat cheeseburger with grilled onions, mushrooms, jalapenos.
  5. Not a good idea to cook neither pork nor poultry medium rare. Reserve that for red meat. When I was a poor student at Texas fueling my weight lifting, the Hancock Center HEB meat sales were how I funded my protein needs. Many a sirloin from the bulk packages were grilled or broiled to great effect. My best strength gains came then with no so-called "gear" required. As for cheap pork, HEB often sells pork butt shoulder roasts for around $.97/lb and in keeping this relevant, it's hard to mess them up in a smoker. They are well marbled and made for smoking IMO. I prefer smoked brisket, but a properly smoked pork butt shoulder roast isn't far behind for a little less than one third the cost.
  6. I'm not a big IPA guy either. I've disliked more that I've tried than those I've liked. For me, the dislike is less about bitterness and more about citrus flavor. If citrus character comes through too strongly, I won't like it. In fact, increased bitterness might help to balance out an otherwise intolerable citrus presence. So I've been trying them on occasion and perhaps there is also a bit of becoming more accustomed to them involved as well. Saint Arnold Art Car IPA, for instance, was awful to me. It tasted like grapefruit. I can't stand grapefruit.
  7. Sierra Nevada - Hoptimum Triple IPA, 11% Alc. 👍
  8. Deschutes - Black Butte Porter, 5.5% Alc. 👍
