jhoak Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 The mandolin is on its way to you blsamuel. Be careful. No we DO NOT want pictures if you happen to "slip". Oh yea... One more thing... I can not and will not be held responsible if your "klutzieness" results in an injury while using the mandolin. If you do happen to lop off an apendage go ahead and sue me. I got nothing so you can have all of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got nothing so you can have all of it. Well you do have the few dollars I sent to you for shipping. That might be more of nothing than I have. So I find a sleezy lawyer to sue you, you find one to countersue me, they'll find something to get paid, leaving us both with less than we begain. Even if one of us would "win". (I'm joking to all hard working honest members of the legal profession - lawyers don't scare me. All that I've met are really hard working bright people. I even got the shirt off of a lawyers back once.... bwuhahahaha.... of course now I've gotta watch my back in case he decides he wants my shrit.) I think I'll put up on shelf until proper protective gear arrives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fenderbender Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 You should see me after slicing radishes for 300 ...... forget bandaids..... just cauterize your bloody stumps on the hot grill and wrap in duct tape! Fillet glove too confining for you? At least for us amateurs, I consider it a kitchen essential. Dave No time for fillet gloves!!! It's a total flustercluck 14-16 hr marathon on event days.....we barely have time to pee...... usually have 10 things going at once, still have all my digits We are very careful on the more dangerous items...... worst cuts I've seen are on stupid stuff like the 18 roll of plastic wrap cutters, bushel crate staples, or my worst cut...(12 stitches) the side of a number 10 can, those puppies can be razor sharp . I almost never get cut with a knife. "knock on wood" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mallette Posted February 27, 2012 Author Share Posted February 27, 2012 No time for fillet gloves!!! Our roughnecks say the same thing about LadSafe fall arrestors as well as other things. We ensure that they use it anyway... [A] Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brac Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 So I've been trying to make the short ribs recipe, to say butchers in Maine are lacking just doesn't begin to tell the story. One "butcher" had only frozen short ribs, that had bones in them but had little to no meat. The other "butcher" has packages labeled "short ribs" I bought these took a photo (see below) then ground them into burgers. Pretty good tasting meat, but are these gonna work for the recipe?

Brac Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 On another note, here is what I'm doing today, Bacon A-LA Alton Brown cardboard box cold smoker. Pork belly has been in a rub/brine in the fridge for 8 days. After a few hours I'm gonna do up some pork chops with a nice spice rub in the hot smoke side.

Mallette Posted March 4, 2012 Author Share Posted March 4, 2012 What's the white foam looking stuff around the yard/deck for , fire prevention. I had to ask someone. I am told it's called "snow," not to be confused with "cocaine," which only falls from the sky around Laredo. It's found only locations that are incredibly cold and generally uninhabitable for warm blooded creatures. [] Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jhoak Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 Snow? Oh... Yea... I remember snow. VILE stuff. Especially when how you earn your $5.00 a week allowance by shoveling it off of a 500' long driveway. [8o|] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brac Posted March 4, 2012 Share Posted March 4, 2012 I think you guys cursed me with the snow talk, now it's snowing. The chops just went on, 2 hr left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators dtel Posted March 4, 2012 Moderators Share Posted March 4, 2012 I got cold just looking at it, so it really is true, people really do live way up north enough to snow and freeze that much, don't know how they do it, probably only a few of them anyway adventurous enough to try that.

Brac Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 So the weather man said possible flurry's (ie, .25 or less) overnight. I get up this AM and there are 6" of snow on the smoker. Luckily I finished right about when it started. If you haven't made your own bacon you just don't know what your missing! They shouldn't even be allowed to call that floppy wet stuff at the super market by the same name. When it's time to slice the bacon, I really am thankful that I own the right knife, I can't imagine trying to do this with most peoples "best knife".
