Ah, ok, I see. Doesn't a low post count also mean that your opinion, observations, and thoughts are irrelevant?

There is a lot of food talk on here, so I was wondering how many of you fixes Flat Iron Steak? The first one we ever tried the instructions said to grill it, we tried that and my wife didn't like it. So now we (just put one in the oven) bake them. I put it in a storage bag with Angelo's seasoning plus some smoke. Then I put in in a cake pan, add a can of cream of mushroom on top, then put onions on top of that. I cook it at 275 for about 4 hours. With the left overs, we make beef sandwiches!!! This makes a great meal.
I'm A GOLD MEMBER: Tried to copy something and paste it and could not here at work.
Bastiges!
Bastiges!
Dang that meat was still mooing!!!!!!
Speaking of food talk. I almost baked a cake today to go along with the casserole that I came close to making. Decided to wait and see what her food choices for the weekend are before I commit to something I'll have to eat for four days.
Went out in the backyard and picked up quite a few sticks. Many more remain. Did the dishes and straightened up the living room. I'm saving walking out to get the mail for a little later.
Coffee was german today...guttenstrong. Instead of grinding beans, I used some coffee she had already ground. Since I judge my coffee by the amount of beans I put in the grinder, I didn't know exactly how much to put in there if it had been ground previously. I erred on the side of plenty and achieved my goal. I might make a change to my program. That's the way drugs work, they get you hooked on a little and next thing you know, you need a stronger dose.
Listened to Stoops this morning on the Jones show. Looking forward to football season. This year is very important for us going forward. There's not a whole lot of room to improve our record, but can't allow it to regress far at all if we want to continue to grow our brand. Stoops said they have had over 100 visits to campus this off season and that we no longer are having to settle and can be more picky than we could before. I liked the sound of that. We've always had the lure of the SEC for prospective players, we have comparable facilities to most SEC programs which means they are superior to most of the country. We are no longer a laughingstock among the talking heads and will probably get more national exposure on TV.
We are in the process of becoming relevant. I'll eat my words and say that it is due to Stoops and the decisions he's made. Learning on the job seems to be working out OK.

Yeah, if you cook your steak at 275° for 4 hours then you and I are on different sides of the universe when it comes to steak. My wife likes it cooked way too much as well. When I order steak I ask for medium rare but to err on the side of rare. When I cook my own I shoot for 125° internal for me and 150°+ for hers.
I go medium well, just the way I was raised!! I guess the way we do it, it's cooked like a roast.
Man, I sure wish I had steak the way I was raised. We grew our own angus beef that was grass fed until we penned them up and fed them a mixture of corn and molasses. We ate all of it too. Haven't had cow tongue since then but still have memories of my Dad and I having cow tongue sandwiches while watching ball games. My mother and sister wouldn't eat any.
Mom would always broil the steaks so she could give me and Dad ours when they were cooked properly and leave hers and my sisters in there until they were ruined.
My sister told me one time that she had a list of recipes that Mom used all the time. Next time I asked her about them she said she had given them to me. She did not give them to me.

I am a purist when it comes to beef and I like my steak very rare. I want it to bleed when I cut it. I do not use rubs, no marinating or any add ons. All I do is crank up the grill to about 500 degrees and get a very marbled, plenty of fat rib-eye at least an inch thick. I prefer thicker but it has to be at least an inch. I use a little salt to bring out the flavor and throw it on the grill. I get a good sear and turn it over one time. Cook her a few more minutes and serve it. Nothing fancy and like I said I like the taste of beef.
I am also one who eats the entire cow. My favorite soup on earth is oxtail soup (cow tails) because the meat is very tender and very flavorful.. The bone and fat make a perfect broth to cook your vegetables in. Now I am hungry.
He said he doesn't even travel to Louisville so I'll see what I can do lol
Well don't blame him there. Although my oldest grandson, Governor's scholar, lives there. I'm about 10 miles west of Paducah. FCC
Me neither! I was in Paducah couple weeks ago for work. Stayed at the Homewood suites. It wasn't a bad little hotel.
What type of bird is he?Go Big Blue

A Wildcat Supporter, can't you see the BLUE coloring he put on?
Gregory Peck?
Yes and Orson Wells was in the movie also. Captain Ahab vs Moby Dick. The whale won that one. We had to read the book in the 8th grade.
cordmaker believe it or not it is a real bird. The Grandala. I posted it in honor or our school colors.
"The Grandala (Grandala coelicolor) is a bird species now placed in the family Turdidae. It is an arboreal insectivore. It ranges across the northeastern Indian Subcontinent and some adjoining regions, existing primarily in the low-to-mid altitudes of the Himalayas. It is found in Bhutan, India, Myanmar, Nepal, Tibet, and China"
Here is a short video.
Good morning D-League
It is a pleasant Saturday morning and the coffee taste mighty good this time of day. Temperatures will be in the 80's by mid afternoon. I am headed down to Indian Rocks Beach for a few days. Staying in a nice little cottage on the Gulf of Mexico. Old school. Celebrating my 52 year wedding anniversary.
On this day in 1967 my Commanding Officer gave me a 3 day pass to marry my fiancee of two years. I was stationed at Fort Knox, KY and we were married in Ashville, North Carolina. When I picked up my pass the Captain said you better come back here a married man, and stay out of Louisville. I really didn't have any money back then making less than $100 a month as a soldier boy so my girl gave me a $20.00 bill and said "let's do this". I had saved my money and bought a ring so that cost was covered. North Carolina required a pre-marital physical exam by a doctor and a blood test. That cost me $6.00. (still have the receipt). Our marriage license was $5.00. I gave the preacher man $5.00 at the First Baptist Church in downtown Ashville to marry us and we had a few dollars left over to buy some gas and get back to the U.S. Army.
That is how you did it 52 years ago. They said we wouldn't last 6 months. They were wrong. Oh, the reason we picked April 7 as our wedding day. Because in 1967 the NCAA tournament was over and I did not want our future anniversaries to conflict with the NCAA basketball tournament. It was finished by the end of March in those days.

Congratulations on 52 years. Wishing you many more.

Good morning from ATX. Currently 69°F, humid and overcast. Expecting more precious, beautiful rain later today. Hopefully we could see upper 70s this afternoon.
We plan on watching Final Four games beginning at 5:09 PM CDT today. Primary reason is because TTU plays MSU in the later game. Food and drink. Sort of a mini-Super Bowl party for us.
We've got more chores on the agenda for today. Check back with y'all later. Behave.

Good Morning
Well instead of watching a bunch of Cats in college today, suppose I'll watch them in the NBA games and upcoming playoffs. Uh, well, nm. FCC.
Good morning! Coffee was waiting on me when I got up and it's almost gone now. I don't know what I'll be doing today but I've thought about making some charcoal. I might as well pick up sticks and put them directly in the barrel rather than pick them up twice.
Congrats Sawnee!
Congrats Sawnee!
Good story.
Congratulations Mr. & Mrs. Sawnee.
I have you beat by a few months. Sherry and I got married August 18, 1966 after a 2 month dating period. I married into money. Sherry had $150 in her checking account.
Good morning league. Haven’t visited in awhile. Disappointed we didn’t get to the final four but It happens. Just decent point guard play and I think we would have made it. Anyways, hope all is well for everyone.
I love you're ability to make a decision. My anniversary being St. Paddys.
This songbird family with a circumpolar biogeographic distributution is better known as thrushes. People everywhere love them . . . they eat bugs. The Robin is a big one with folks. Back to bluebirds the color is actually structural. It is an evolutionary adaptation assisting concealment for aerial foraging ambush. Quite remarkable.
