Damm dude. Always impressive!

 
Thanks! When you coming over for dinner?
 
Speaking of which. got a pork shoulder in the smoker. Made a quick rub... no coffee though because we don't have that in the house. 
 

 
Smells very chocolaty

after a couple hours

It's good, but not sure it's worth the $10 price tag
 

Have you tried this one? Its over $8 a bottle but its over 16oz..
 
Maruman Organic Soy Sauce made in the USA

 
 
 
Im somewhat partial to Lee Kum Kee Premium Dark soy sauce when im not avoiding a sodium overload. Its Chinese from one of the better companies. This is really a good soy for the money but its still not exactly cheap either. .http://us.lkk.com/sitecore/content/US/Enterprise/Products/retail/soysauces/premium-dark-soy-sauce

 
Im not a huge fan of Kikkoman but the Gluten free version is good if you want a soy sauce that taste more like a Chinese soy sauce. Its pretty straight forward on the ingredient list too.
 

Ingredients: Water, Soybeans, Rice, Salt.

I'm in violent agreement with your choice for the LKK dark ... that's delicious.
 

 

[D3monic]

Pretty sure i've seen the lkk local. I'll grab a bottle next time

 

[ShowMeDaSauce]

LKK Premium Dark or the Double Fermented. LKK has several varieties but those 2 are the best. Not too hard to find either. Ive even seen the Premium Dark at common grocery stores.

 

[ShowMeDaSauce]

I am rather spoiled when it comes to selection and availability locally.

 
Other end

 

[JayT]

I want that store near me!

 

[grantmichaels]

Totally jealous ...

This is a tiny fraction of the rice at the closest market. The market in the first pics has more than 3 times as much but they dont stock the large bags of Koshihikari i like. My local Coscto has the Kokuho Rose pink label in again cheaper than i can find it anywhere. Its a damn fine rice for the money too.

 

[dragonsfire]

Nice! When I get to Calgary I go to T&T Asian superstore

 

[D3monic]

Shit, That's a hell of a selection.

 

[Grass Snake]

I got like three of those stores. I need to quit Bs'ing and get to cooking

 

[ShowMeDaSauce]

Shit, That's a hell of a selection.

 

Thats the sauce isle which includes soy sauce. Its about the only place near me to carry LKK Chu Hou paste too. The soy sauce and even fish sauce selection is staggering to say the least. Right across the street is a Chinese owned market. This one is owned by Vietnamese IIRC. The one across the street also has a very impressive sauce isle.
 
The closest market to me is Thai owned and some of the specialty items reflect that. They carry very few items that are common at say a Korean market such as Korean pepper powder or paste. Luckily i have 2 Korean owned markets just slightly further away.
 
And not a damn one of them has the Mykuali ramen anymore!!!!!!

There is nothing like a good asian supermarket,   I am so stoked that Seafood City and Jollibee are opening in Mississauga this spring.     they will be about a block down the road from 3 Brewers  and one of the few krispy kremes left side of the border.   

 

[ShowMeDaSauce]

The first isle pic i posted is Seafood City Supermarket in STL. Im not sure if they are associated with the ones in Cali or other areas. Its not listed on their "locations" website page. I do know they offer everything from fresh fish heads to Chinese hazelnut Oreos. You got to try those, they look kinda like a Twix candy bar

 

[JoynersHotPeppers]

I want that store near me!

Philly

 

[D3monic]

I made the thing I saw on FB.
 
Sweet potato in oven for hour
 
Seasoned with cumin, hot chili powder, garlic, onion powder .
 

 
Crisped up some the pork from top post and tossed in some onion and pablanos. Similar seasoning to sweet tater
 

 

 
Back in oven with some mexi cheeses on it. Pulled and green onioned. Valenti hot sauce
 

 
Really freaking good, got a belly ache. Ate both those and a big pile of meat.
