Need some food pron













Pepper & Salt for an hour or so. Then I baked the skillet at 500, put it on the stove, threw in half a red onion sliced, and smashed a little garlic, cooked for a minute or so, then put the steaks in, searing each side.

Then I threw the pan back in the oven

Bowl # 2 is freaking me out. I feel like something's looking at me.

No, it's from a restaurant I frequent in L.A.'s Little Tokyo, it's the best. Bowl #2 is grilled eel over rice.

IMO, charring the edges before broiling in the oven adds an awesome flavor and helps seal in juices. It's sorta the same principle for cooking on a flame or really hot BBQ, but without the added flavors of cooking over open flame.

I very much put some of this on the coaching staff especially since a week earlier against New Orleans he did something similar. There was a short punt that he wasn't able to catch outright. With Saints players around he suddenly grabbed it after a couple of bounces. I remember it almost gave me a heart attack and I thought how stupid it was. Someone on the coaching staff should have ripped him a new one after that and told him if he can't catch it out right to get as far away as possible. If someone had chewed him out when that happened, it might have prevented that first turnover against the Giants. I mean....maybe they did during film sessions that week....but if they did he certainly didn't get the message.

I'm absolutely amazed at how often a punt returner makes me scream at my TV, the concept is very simple.

Guys, NFL players in general are remarkably unintelligent.

Didn't we do a sample test on here a while back? Most scored in the 40's, iirc.

Ribeye is best when done on a grill about 2 minute per side. I also like the cast iron pan method, heat it in the oven, throw it on a hot burner, sear both sides off and right back into the oven to finish off. I like to rub the steaks down with garlic cloves prior to searing, and no onion in the pan. Once out of the oven rub a pat of butter over the top and allow to rest for 10 minutes. Side of garlic mashed please.

I refuse to lay 100% of the blame on Williams for either of these plays. In fact, for the second return I place more of the blame on the coaching staff. After Williams screwed up the first punt return I think it's legitimate to consider not putting anybody back to return punts in OT. Ironically, the 49ers had one of the best (if not the best) special teams unit in 2011.

After how things ended though, his confidence could well be completely shot at this point. Plus, the fan base (including myself) will never forgive him.

As far as Smith goes I'm really curious to see how he does after a full off season with Harbaugh. Now that he has proven he is legit, Harbaugh can start to give him more freedom and see how he does. I mean I know at the beginning of the year last year their passing game had less complexity than my high school team's. Slowly over time Harbaugh started to open up the playbook. This coming year, I think he needs to give Smith some more responsibility in the offense and see how he does. I think only then will we really know if we can say, "He's our guy" or if we should start looking to FA or young talent to develop.
Agreed about Crabtree. We need a Megatron or Julio Jones. Pisses me off that the Giants are so deep at WR.

Heat cast iron pan in 500* oven

Rub down room temp ribeye with garlic then coat lightly with oil, kosher salt/fresh ground pepper to taste

Pull hot pan out of oven and place on a hot stove top burner

Sear ribeye on one side for 30 secs and don't move it, flip and sear other side 30 secs

Place pan with ribeye back into 500* oven for 2 minutes, flip ribeye over and cook another 2 minutes (Medium/rare, add a minute per side for medium)

Remove steak, cover loosely with foil and allow to rest for a few minutes minutes
