Yep. That sure helped the meat budget. Now, I'm waiting for corn season to begin. Until then, it's fresh asparagus for me.
"MORE WOMEN BEATEN BY DRUNKEN MEN DURING THE SUPER BOWL"
Which proved to be from the imagination of an imaginative reporter.
Lucky for me, I live in NH now (a refugee from Kaliforniastan) and the seafood here is really incredible and CHEAP.
But not today—pretty much everything is closed, thankfully. At least a few people “get it”.
Slightly O/T, but I had to put up with the overflow of moonbats coming up/down from Conway yesterday to hear Obama speaking. Sheesh!
What was the breaking straw that moved you from CA?
Yes. I prefer to have the fillet cut by the butcher, it's allot better that way IMHO. I almost always have to get them to cut all of my steak by request because what they put out for people to buy is almost never thick enough, especially in the higher quality grades. A steak less than 1 inche thick is like beef jerky on the grill, unless you cook it for a very short time, and what fun is a short cookout? I always go for 1.5 inches for ribeyes and strips, 3 - 3.5 inches thick on fillets because they tend not to be that big in diameter, and are super tender when they are that thick. They almost melt in your mouth!
I grilled up a couple of ribeyes for Mrs. hotshu & myself on Friday. It set our appetites for an all day barbeque Sunday. Slow roasted pork butt, two beef chuck roasts and two tri-tips all infused with a glorious combination of pecan and hickory smoke over eleven hours. Scrumptious! Thank goodness for freezers. This may hold us ‘til July 4. NOT!
You’re making me hungry!!
Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaatttttttttttt!

I didn’t climb to the top of the food chain to become a vegetarian!
*****************************************
Good thing beer is a vegetable, and home brew is like fresh out of the garden.
Probably South American shrimp. Flash frozen, then thawed for your store/market.
They are crappy shrimp from very hot waters and are not taken care of very well, hence bland.
Yup :)
I couldn't help but drool read the description of your BBQ - yummy
Long story short? 2-hour-plus commutes, overcrowded, overpriced, overtaxed, overstressed.
Yes, I took a pay cut (almost 15 percent) to come to “Cow Hampshire”, but I don’t pay state sales or income tax, which makes up the 15 percent right there.
I have a larger house (2000 vs. 1400 sq ft) on a larger lot (300’ X 150’ vs. 65’ X 45’) for less than 1/3 the price, and I’m far enough north (Rochester—Maquest it) that I don’t have to deal with all the MA transplants who commute to Boston. My neighbors (the ones I can see) are great folks and very friendly. I didn’t know most of my neighbors in CA.
We’ve got our problems here in NH, to be sure—the Dems took over the state for the first time in a century and they’re hell-bent and determined to screw it up before they get tossed out on their ears in November ‘08.
We’ve got Mass libs who escape their socialist hellhole and then whine they don’t have the support system they had back there (thereby creating another one).
We’ve got Carol Shea-Porter (or Che-Porter, as I like to call her).
But all in all, waking up and seeing a BLUE sky (not brown) through the trees in MY woods, going out to my porch and waving to my next-door neighbor 200 yards away, ain’t nothing better.
We now return you to your regularly scheduled topic.
Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
Hay!! What's wrong with wine?
