    misc How do you create your recipes?

    Don’t be afraid to experiment with weird flavor combinations! This is one of my favorite tasting hot sauces I’ve ever had, and the ingredients list (to me) is BONKERS, lol 😳 Seriously, look at this ingredients list: Coffee? Orange? Hibiscus? Peaches? Tomatoes? Bananas? Easily one of...

    What's your funniest hot sauce story?

    Not hot sauce, but… I was at a picnic at a buddy’s house a few Summers ago, and we talked my buddy’s brother into eating about 1/4 of a fresh Reaper pod. 15 minutes later, the dude is writhing on the ground, salivating, teary eyed, etc. The whole nine. So, my buddy cuts a 7 Pot Douglah pod in...

    food I always wanted to make... BOOM!

    Thanks! Yeah, I usually see it labeled as “Osso Buco” in the meat cooler, but it’s already sliced into 1” thick pieces (roughly) for stew/braising. I asked the butcher if he had any that weren’t cut up yet and got lucky 👍🏻 It was $3.99/lb and the whole piece cost me $28 It was really good! I’m...

    food I always wanted to make... BOOM!

    BUMP! “I always wanted to make…” a “BEEF HAMMER” 🍖🔨🔥 This cut of meat is a bone-in beef rear hind shank. For anyone else who might be considering smoking this cut, you should know that it’s very lean, with a TON of silver skin, and a lot of tendons and ligaments in it. It also took MUCH...

    breeding Isolation Techniques

    😁👍🏻 I like the “bag the whole plant” technique the best because you can pick exactly which pods you want to save seeds from, vs. crossing your fingers and hoping one of the flowers you isolated has the phenotype you’re looking for (if you bag individually)

    Other Half has been on the shelves at my local spot since the beginning of Summer, and I couldn’t be happier 🥳 I grabbed all of these last Friday I’ve yet to try a beer from there that I haven’t seriously enjoyed. They put out some bangers :cheers:

Ended up getting 🥇1st place in chicken thighs ($250), and 🥈2nd place in ribs ($150)! I...
