  1. Hilarious. HEB gives them away free.
  2. 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.
  3. User ID checks 👍... 😄
  4. 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.
  5. Saint Arnold - Amber Ale, 6.2% Alc 👍 Homemade doublemeat cheeseburger with grilled onions, mushrooms, jalapenos.
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. Sierra Nevada - Hoptimum Triple IPA, 11% Alc. 👍
  9. Deschutes - Black Butte Porter, 5.5% Alc. 👍
  10. I really like it. Very well balanced and a definite favorite of mine. Being a seasonal offering, it may be a while before it's back on shelves. I haven't seen any at my local HEB for a month or so. I did see some larger 24 (I think) packs at another HEB a few weeks ago. There may still be some stock around somewhere though.
  11. And then there's my 444 Marlin. Glad I loaded up on brass, bullets and powder way back when. Bought 600 1x-fired RP cases on ebay way back when for $99. Add to that several boxes of Remington factory ammo and I'm good, but not plinking with it. Wondering if Ruger will ever do a limited run of them ... maybe through Grice or Lipsey's.
  12. Lucky 19 Brewing - Double Jackpot Imperial Pilsner, 7.8% Alc.
  13. Woe onto him that would sack the QB ... payback is a beotch.
  14. Darius Terrell Cross-posting from Transfer Cycle: 2024-2025 thread in the 995 board. DT football brainiacs
  15. Who is the "I" in "I was told over the weekend"?
