Texas BBQ
Can't find this place in the google machine. I have a feeling 2M will be closed by the time I arrive in San Antonio from Houston. It would most definitely be sold out. I'm leaving here at 4:30PM on a Saturday and driving to Boerne and was looking for a place to eat lunch the next day before heading out to Sonora/El Dorado.

Thanks for the recommendation. If you think it’s mediocre, I‘ll have to investigate before stopping there.

Need some recommendations for a good place in or around Boerne. Traveling to Sonora/El Dorado to the deer lease in a few weeks.

Official 2021 Bitch about family/Holiday Insanity
I remember when I was in college and my wife (then girlfriend) was telling me how screwed up her family was. I said "Oh yeah? Try me". I won. I haven't spoken to my brother in 10+ years and he hasn't spoken to my parents in that long either. That is not because of me. I've attempted to reach out but stopped about 5 years ago after my son was born. The entire side of my mom's family is either a) raging alcoholics who are either in the process of dying, or dead, b) serial narcissists who have more spouses than I have dress socks, c) been incarcerated multiple times (both of her brothers - one for possession and distribution of meth, the other for shady dark web shit) or d) drug addicts (see 3)). It's kinda odd how "normal" my mom is, all things considered. The history of alcoholism that runs in my family is why I don't drink (one or two drinks per year). I REALLY try to limit spending time with my mom's side of the family for the reasons above. They just aren't good people to be around, especially with a 5 year old in tow. My parents are fantastic folks though.

Official 2021 Bitch about family/Holiday Insanity
Weedwacker string dude. Close. Whole different ballgame this year. Thanksgiving will consist of two meals. One on Thursday with my parents (and crazy aunt and uncle) and the other with my in laws on Friday which will be much more chill (well...as chill as it could be given my sister-in-law and brother-in-law). A few weeks ago, much to my disapproval, my mom invited her sister (and her husband) and her brother (and his wife) to thanksgiving at their house in Tyler. Now, my aunt has been married 6 times (I believe - my dad says he has to use two hands to count now). This husband is a retired life insurance actuary with a wine problem. Weird thing is...they keep tabs on each other constantly. If my mom and her sister go somewhere to eat, he will call in the middle of the meal and ask her what she's eating. She'll call him when he orders a pizza and has it delivered because she will monitor the front door cameras religiously. My mom's brother who is coming to thanksgiving was arrested about 15 years ago for possession (I won't say what of - he's on the registered sex offender list) but has apparently turned his life around. GTFO of here with that shit. I really enjoy talking with his wife though. She's very down to earth and chill. That whole shindig will be my parents, my dad's sister, those two couples, and my family (wife, son & I). Friday, I'm smoking 4 racks of ribs at my in laws. I might even do a pork belly. We'll see. My MIL just finished up her chemo and radiation about 2 months ago. My FIL just wants someone to cook and hang out with as he hates his other son-in-law. Like, literally hates. My sister-in-law (the one who is coming to thanksgiving) and her husband are the most worthless human beings on the face of the planet. Well, mainly just her husband. They are both raging alcoholics and the husband has to have control over everything she says, does, the way she looks, etc. But here's the kicker, he has no job and has had no job for his entire life. Like, if you look at his "resume", it's blank. He freeloads off his parents. They have been without running water since the freeze last February. Yes, you read that correctly. They "shower" with the garden hose. They have no way to do their own laundry so they borrow other people's washer and dryer. His dad is building them a house right next door to their house in Conroe. It should be finished by December (so that's almost a year without running water). He has conditioned her in to thinking that it's all normal and not out of the ordinary. Yet, there are people in fucking Africa and the Amazon that have better living accommodations than they do. So anywho, I'm taking my son to the deer lease the Sunday before thanksgiving and hunting with my FIL, processing deer Wednesday with my in laws, smoking meat on Friday and watching football with my FIL. As for Christmas - stay tuned.

AU = Apparently Unvaxxed? Brian Harsin and a War Eagle Quandary.
Oh, you mean from things that have a high likelihood of killing him or having a serious consequence to his health? He sure as hell is vaccinated against those things. The coronavirus that has killed about 700 kids under the age of 18 in a population of 70 million or so in the US, with the majority of those deaths coming from kids with preexisting conditions? The virus he’s already had and was literally sick for a day with a slight cough and runny nose? That one? Seems pretty low risk to me especially since he already has antibodies. But hey, you do you man. What do you care? You’re vaccinated (I’m assuming). You aren’t going to die if you get sick.

I don’t really care either way. My son has natural immunity, which no one wants to talk about. I’ll let his pediatrician tell me if she thinks it’s a good idea to get it for him at this time. I’m not for a mandate and I’m not against one.

Yeah, I got the shot. Two of them actually.

I guess I just don’t understand vaccine mandates. You can lead a horse to water but you can’t make him drink. If someone wants to roll the dice, good luck. Mandating a vaccine isn’t going to change the situation to a point where life will go back to normal like it was a few summers ago. People have already really made up their mind on if they’re getting the shot for the most part. First dose shots are a fraction of what they were 3 months ago. There’s just no demand for it. And I’m not one of those “mah freezomz” guys either. I’m just trying to look at it logically. I got Covid in January, got vaxxed in March and April and will be getting a booster in December. It sucked and I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy.

Beef ribs
Got a rack of beef short ribs and small 3 bone Dino rib rack from a cow I split with my folks going on for dinner tonight. Firing up the UDS. I built this thing with my FIL during last years winter storm and it’s still going strong. Cost less than $100 to build. This thing is amazing. Royal oak lump charcoal with some pecan wood chunks.

2021 Body Transformation Thread
I switched up my diet and am going the low-fat, semi-body building diet of protein + carbs and low fats (40% protein, 35% carbs, 25% fat) and lost 7 pounds in a month. Down to 181. I also started tracking calories and weighing food. Needless to say I need to eat more. On most days, I'm getting around 200g of protein (might be a tad high) and around 60g of fat (sweet spot). I might need to up the carb intake honestly.
