FWIW I knew what you meant by “long”

My son got irritated at me the other day when I described his daily soda habit as classic high time preference behavior.

“Hard work may pay off in the end, but laziness always pays off now!”

When my son was old enough to leave the house by himself, I had one simple piece of advice. Every time I told him, "Don't be a douchebag."

When I was hugging him in his dorm room after getting him settled in to start college, he whispered in my ear, "I know Dad, don't be a douchebag." I cried as I left.

He's 24 now, is a mechanical engineer and knocks down 100K+/year. Saw him last week and we went out for sushi. When we were saying our goodbyes in the parking lot, at the end of our pleasantries, in unison we said "And don't be a douchebag."

It's weird what ends up being bonding moments, yet in and of itself is good life advice.

all my mom told me was to not kill anyone and don't get arrested
success so far

Made my late Slovak immigrant grandmother’s poppyseed bread for Easter. Nostalgia explosion.

looks like a great crumb on that

Greased the pan with lard. Highly recommend.

I remember this stuff is a favourite here.

‘Trademark bully’: Momofuku turns up heat on others selling ‘chili crunch’

I've no idea about trademark law, but seems a bit of a shitty move imo.

He was completely unlikeable before this, but man what a knob.

haha, my law firm handled that case with Chile Colonial. Chile Colonial's chili crunch product is incredibly good.

What a dickhead. Good thing there are endless other chili crisp/crunch options on the market.

I'm a huge fan of his restaurants, food and cookbooks and used to love his podcast but he comes across as a bitter, angry guy, constantly haranguing about "white people" and other irrelevant topics to what I came to listen for (i.e. food related) so I gave up listening to his podcast.

Its crazy to hear him take this stance because he vented about how racist it was to have corporations appropriate various asian foods yet in the case of all the Chili Crunchs (or Chili oils) I've tried, it was almost always people from various parts of Asia who were reproducing their family recipe for love and profit, the thing you'd think he'd like to see given past comments

Regardless, I'll still enjoy his tasty vittles, books and Chili Crunch which should be able to compete on its merit alone (& does imo) not through limiting competition

cest la vie

On a side note, I was reading a post here at 2+2 and they posted a link to the video below but for the life of me, I cant find the post. Any chance someone here knows and can post the link? (mods, please delete if this was to off topic), thx in advance

It was in one of the TV threads. I think the what you've been watching recently one, but not 100%

Bingo, that was it, thx!

My mind is turning to mush, I have to do an investigation with just about every memory I try to recall where I have to jump through six degrees of separation before I finally land on something that takes me to the thought I was looking for

If anyone cares, it was in the TV: what have you been watching thread

Love these old vids, I started playing a couple years prior to this video and was at Binions during that WSOP. I was so wide eyed and curious about it all but not a clue how to figure out how to play at a high level. Its crazy I was able to watch a 5K final that got heads up between Seidel and Chan and no one was watching except me, a reporter and a couple barely paying attention in the far corner of the rickety bleachers they had set up

David Chang is an insufferable asshat. His restaurants introduces different Asian cuisines to Asian Americans and white people. He charges you twice the price for the same food you can get elsewhere and insults you in the process.

I could be mistaken, but didn't he kind of pioneer the concept of upscale fast casual where you can get a gourmet ingredient meal served within minutes and without all the hullaboo of cloth napkins and sommeliers?

Anyone have any sweetbreads experience? My semi retired father likes to have a couple of bourbons and buy me strange cuts of meat. Doesn’t even warn me. The fed ex guy just showed up with beef cheeks and sweetbreads.

Make this rub. Liberally coat beef cheeks with it and smoke for 2-3 hours. Put the cheeks in a crock pot, cover with beef broth, add a few tablespoons of rub and cook on low until meat is fork tender.

Then make street tacos and invite me over.

You're on your own withe the sweetbreads. Assuming some sort of menudo type stew?

1/2 cup smoked paprika
1/3 cup dark brown sugar
1/4 cup salt
1/4 cup garlic powder
2 tablespoons black pepper
2 tablespoons chili powder
2 tablespoons onion powder
2 tablespoons chipotle chili pepper
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon cumin
1 tablespoon dry mustard

This is a great video

Homemade pepperoni bread:

love the swirl
do you think the pepp was cooked enough?

Oh yeah it was dynamite.

Had some homemade marinara I unfroze to dip in which was spectacular.

good to hear
what if you put some slices on top to get crisp under heat?

Wouldn’t be opposed.

Did butter, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, and parm on top this time.

Looks delicious. I usually add about double the pepperoni and cheese so the bread is just starting to get soggy with fat.

Looks excellent as well.
