Shit I've Cooked Lately
Agreed. Unrelated, my sister brought me some of that Onion/Chili seasoning from Trader Joe's last weekend. Solid.

Bonus: My hands smell like garlic the next day. Edit: Also, for anyone who hasn't tried to peel garlic, just lay a clove on the cutting board, cut the ends off, lay knife flat over the clove, and hit the flat part of the knife with your palm. Remove peel. Chop/dice garlic.

Let's figure out the cheapest option to watch the most games possible 2025
Whoever built my house wired it for Cat5. So I have junction boxes just about everywhere except where I need it at the moment. As I mentioned above, a $40 preamp solved all of my reception issues, but I didn't bother running anything over coax. But if you're just running to your HDHR box, I don't see how distribution would be an issue. But my understanding of MoCA setups is pretty limited.

Yeah. It's not ideal with the location of that machine, but it's an option. Same for the Tablo, I guess. Need to check the settings. I can view it on my phone fine when I'm on my home wifi. So I assume it's the same issue. /edit. So I got the port forwarding sorted with Plex and it works again. Turns out my Tablo was hardwired. The issue is that Tablo now requires the $5 per month subscription to view remotely on a legacy device. So I guess when I'm out of town this weekend, if push comes to shove, I could pay the $5, and stream my game from the Tablo App to my old Chromecast.

My current issue is getting it and my Plex server to play with my new Nest Pro wifi mesh. I'm going to have to sit down with it this evening for some port forwarding to those two devices.

I was just reading that the current 4th Gen? Tablos don't let you stream remotely anymore like mine will. I think there's a way to run it through Plex as well. I had an external HD plugged into mine for a while so I could DVR the OTA broadcasts. But I repurposed it because YTTV started carrying my locals years ago.

Even on the roof, I wasn't pulling anything (towers are about 20 miles from our house, and one is VHF in the opposite direction). A preamp after the antenna brought everything in clear as a bell.

As for the other TVs, a Tablo box plugged into the antenna will allow you to stream to all of them. Don't bother trying to tie into the coaxial split, which likely will require an amplifier if the runs are long enough.

I'm wondering how it would go in some plain, country, white bread subbed for butter? This would be as a BBQ accompaniment.

I melt it down and coat my steaks with it before searing them off. Beef tallow tortillas are supposedly delicious, but I haven't tried to make them yet. Best tip I've tried so far with regard to rendering tallow is to run the fat through a meat grinder first. It gets you a lot of surface area. When I tried it, I basically doubled my tallow yield.

"Garlic is divine. Avoid at all costs that vile spew you see rotting in oil in screw-top jars. Too lazy to peel fresh? You don't deserve to eat garlic." - Anthony Bourdain Very few things I have read in the last decade have I taken to heart like I did this edict.

So the latest from YTTV mentions that if they pull Fox, you can still sign up for the FoxOne app with a free 7-day trial, which will have the game.

Texas BBQ
My kid is driving home from Austin tonight, and my wife is ordering Terry Blacks for him to pick up. They have a $50 minimum order amount for pickup. Is it really that much more work to put it in a container instead of a tray? I mean, It'll probably be a tasty treat despite my last trip to that location. But I spit on their minimum $ amount to pickup.

Texas BBQ
That does sound good. I ordered it through their app for pickup this morning and the stock toppings possibilities is salsa roja, BBQ sauce, and some sort of green sauce.
