  1. Oh, shit - didn't know O's closed... I swear we went there a couple years ago, but my brother is saying it's been closed longer than that. Such a good dude - went to HS with my uncle. Rancholoma is amazing. I started going there when they first opened and took a few dates during college there back when it was way cheaper than it is now. Love Ranco Pizza and Black Cur. They're always on our list. We have a house on our property, so we'll stay there, but typically the wife and I will do one night out and stay at Rancholoma and leave the kids at the house on their own. Haven't had Bella's before, will have to give it a shot. We are stopping at Mary's in Strawn on our way into town and then New York Hill in Mingus on our way back to IN. Haven't been to Cattle Drive before, but my brother was in Coleman over Thanksgiving and recommended it, so we'll give it a shot. Thanks - appreciate it. Probably a little too far away from Coleman for us, though.
  2. Because it's where our ranch is.
  3. Heading to Coleman for Spring Break and was planning on eating at Smokesmith BBQ (opened by the same people who run Rancholoma, Black Cur, and Rancho Pizzeria). But it seems as though it's closed permanently. Any suggestions for great BBQ out in that area near Coleman? Big O's is a great nostalgic place for our family, but BBQ is just good not great.
  4. Indiana State. Which I put on par with aggy in terms of academic prowess. Which may be selling ISU short.
  5. Nah - maroon carrots are more important that eliminating fire ants.
  6. That's a true "holy shit" video.
  7. This. This is why Shaggy/Surly is the greatest collection of assholes on the planet. My wife and I decided today that this summer in the week that my kids don't have sports (the one before school starts) we are doing an Ireland trip. The first place on the internet I look for advice? Here. And this isn't the only thread. I have pulled up three others and am building a google doc with places, ideas, etc. Not only is this the only post, but just one that made me realize how great the collective knowledge on cooking and travel has benefited me over the years since first joining in 2008. I can't wait. Two of our eight days we will do tourist shit. The rest... we're going off the beaten path with what y'all have shared. Probably spend most of our free days in the south - my wife's college roommate is Irish and lives in Dublin, so we have to do a day there, and then hit the road after that.
  8. Simpletons.
  9. Nicely done. Looks awesome.
  10. Got a sinus infection that knocked me down for a few days, so did not yet. Will have to make the dough tonight and pizza later this week as well.
  11. I smoke it with the seasoning on there.
  12. I've probably posted it before - or maybe someone else here posted it and this is where I got it from, but for the third year in a row I will be doing this Aaron Franklin version of a smoked turkey with a 2.5 day dry brine in the fridge. It's honestly way more flavorful and juicy than a fried turkey or a roasted turkey that was injected. Hell, I've done the 3 different styles of turkey I already mentioned over the last 20 years, plus one more... and honestly the second best way I've done them is the good old Ron Popeil "set it and forget it" rotisserie. A few years ago I got stuck with a brand new one from the 90s in a white elephant gift exchange and decided that year to give it a shot for Christmas dinner... and it was so much better than I ever imagined. If I ever don't have the time or the weather is so bad I can't use the smoker, I will always defer to the rotisserie. The bird is rubbed down and in the fridge now, ready for a Thursday AM smoke with some already made breakfast tacos and Bloody Mary chilling in there as well.
  13. Damn - That tavern style looks amazing. Might make that our meal for Friday next week after Thanksgiving and then leftover turkey and sides on Saturday.
  14. If I am ranking the habanero sauces I have in my fridge right now, L to R. Marie’s still takes the cake.
  15. Heartbeat's Website has a page for locating retail locations near you that sell their product. Went today and grabbed a bottle of the Scorpion and a bottle of the Red Habanero. The scorpion is amazing. Less heat than Tabasco scorpion and way more flavor. The red hab is average - to me it tastes like many other red habs and is at the bottom of my current stash of red hab sauces. They were out of the Camp Sauce, so I am debating buying online or just waiting for Christmas and asking for a bottle of it. They had the Dill Pickle Serrano sauce, but I already have a couple of dill pickle based hot sauces and wanted something with more heat. The scorpion sauce lived up to the hype - do recommend. Looking forward to getting my hands on a bottle of the Camp Sauce.
  16. It's comical their shit ability to plan something like this. 1) Take Haitian Creole classes... yeah, I bet they can communicate like demented toddlers, knowing curse words and just enough other words to cobble together grammatically horrific sentences. 2) Kicked out of Fire Academy. 3) Fly to Thailand to learn to sail only to find you don't have enough money to take the classes... (no sailing classes in the US?) 4) Tries to recruit homeless guys in DC to help them (holy shit these guys are dumb as a sack of doorknobs). And to top it off the island they want to invade, kill all the men, and enslave the kids and women has EIGHTY-SEVEN THOUSAND PEOPLE. Before reading the article I figured this Island was tiny with less than 50 residents. Hopefully they do get locked up for a long-ass time and that they haven't procreated yet to pass on these dumbfuck genes.
  17. Username checks out. I'd go with Whataburger if they had it here. I think I'd have to go with Jack or Sonic because of the variety and they both have breakfast too. I am really craving a good sandwich for lunch now after catching up on that thread and then being reminded of Potbelly's on this thread.
  18. McD - Breakfast on occasion, double cheese burger when I am getting home from a track meet super late. Arbys - Double been and cheddar with arby's and horsey sauce. At home, throw on a handful of crushed Funyuns. Taco Bell - Doesn't matter, it's all the same stuff rearranged, but I do punish myself with it once a month or so. Long John Silvers - At least one Friday in Lent I'll get one of their fish dinners with hushpuppies just because I don't feel like dealing with people and going to the parish fish fry. JitB - Two tacos. I can tolerate the 0.49 increase. But that's about it from the menu. I used to enjoy a sourdough jack or some curly fries, but I tried them last week when I was at a work event near one of the 3 JitB in the Indy metro area... they were not great. But the tacos tasted exactly like they did in 1992 when my mom would pick me up from school and take me to my first communion class. We'd stop every week on our way there and get JitB and play hangman on napkins. Memories. Well, guess I'm off to JitB now. $3 for 4 tacos... that's a pretty good value these days.
  19. I think their preferred nomenclature is "soaked".
