How would you know what excellence tastes like, have you had it?
I am not from Iowa, but I like the prompt.
Southern fried chicken is one of my all-time favorite foods. The lunchladies at my high school made homemade fried chicken so good that they had to lock the doors to the building during lunchtime to avoid the general public sneaking in. I make a couple of good versions myself: marinated in buttermilk and fried in a cast iron skillet and brined in pickle juice and deep fried.
I have had countless publix subs. They are good for the price and convenience, but they aren't actually good. Rating from 1(Subway) to 10(Parisi's in NYC), Publix subs are a 3.
I have been to many meat and 3s and have lived in towns where a meat and 3 was the only restaurant. I love a classic meat&3, especially on country fried steak or fried fish night.
BBQ hot takes: SC mustard sauce is the best sauce, by far, but NC has better meat, by far. TN BBQ, meat and sauce, is the worst in the South. Georgia does better beef (brisket and ribs) than any other state in the south. TX BBQ beef is better, but it should be considered a completely separate cuisine from southern BBQ. Northern Alabama has the best BBQ chicken, but good white sauce is rare and found in home kitchens and sidewalk stands; BBG's is vastly overrated. Southern Alabama and Northern Florida have the best pulled pork, but the worst ribs. Bonus hot take: Santa Maria BBQ in CA is better than any BBQ beef in the South.
Breasts (and beer) are proof that God loves us.
That gaudy yellow flat-brimmed hat and hoodie in his avatar, where he's trying to be MC Torbee, used to be white. He's very dehydrated and has a drinking problem.
He’s very sensitive of comments about his hat, but it is the same color as all of @Yellowsnow51 s 14 pillows.
True. And if anyone knows how to get piss out of satin, I’m all ears.
Doing the same while grilling ribeyes!
I just put in some annuals, and then did a lot of weeding and pruning on my lilacs. Then just sat and stared.
Just started the charcoal. Come
On over for dinner
The can is dented and scratched up ... did you find it discarded, opened and empty on the side of the road and someone gave you a "free refill"?
What's that simple wooden structure out there ... gallows?
The fu.ck you a cop asking lots of questions, nerd
Uhh no the 6pack box is a bad design and when you take 1 out they all fall out.
and that wood structure is a tomato trellis…
Well, pruning lilacs kind of sucks, otherwise it was productive.
Why doesn't it surprise me that Tenacious QuixotE is the type to put you on ignore, but then keep talking ish about you like a Mean Girl, reminding everyone that he's using ignore in the process? "Well, you tell Billy that he's a big poopyhead, and I wouldn't talk to him if he was the last guy on earth!"
It’s cute you gave him a nickname. Must be living rent free in that empty space of your head.
Pruned our bush last weekend. Was out of control but got damn do I love the 2 weeks you get the aroma when the windows are open.
PITA but lilacs are the best smelling flora, imho.
The sellers we bought from had been pruning the bottoms clean to look like a bouquet, so I have continued to do that. All I need to do is round off the tops and they should be good until next year.
That hat existed before anyone in Iowa or South Carolina knew what an “MC” was.
It’s a farmer hat celebrating Lute Olson’s 1980 basketball team.
It's cute you're trying to defend his honor on the basis that he received a nickname. Wait, did I say "cute"? Silly me, I meant "creepy." You should be thanking me for helping out a homeless (very) little person in his time of need.
