I agree.

I just need some of these teams outta the way. Counting on UW blowing one.

Bama needs a lot of help. The big issue for them is Texas.

I thought the Huskies looked good. Utah is one bunch of tough mutha's.

I'm going to have to start taking some pics of dinner. We made Shrimp Fra Diavolo tonight, and it was killer. Served with Caprese salad and crusty bread. We've got a boring salad with grilled chicken lined up for tomorrow, and salmon with quinoa on Tuesday (having blood drawn for our annual physical...

I wanted to put a meyer lemon tree on the 88's new estate, but the vote was 1-1 and ties go to Mrs. 88. I'm still buying citrus... Rack your upcoming harvest. Ever make limoncello?

That is very cool. My wife's family owned a restaurant and a bakery in Ohio. They started the bakery because the restaurant could not find good bread and rolls to serve with the restaurant fare. They ended up selling the restaurant long before they sold the bakery. It is still in operation (not quit...

The Fab 5 was getting paid to play in flagrant violation of NCAA rules. This latest cheating scandal is an even worse look. Bo would not be pleased.

Looks good. Where do you get that bread? We have shitty bakeries here.

Added to my list. Kenji has a lot of youtube videos, where he puts on a GoPro and just makes shit in his house (usually while having a beer or three). His techniques and approaches to cooking are very entertaining. The dog almost always shows up for a sample at the end, which is nice. His primary w...

I see what your did there.

That looks tasty, Mikey. Do you have Kenji Lopez-Alt's cookbook called The Food Lab? It is written for engineers. Explains why all the weird things that produce great results work from a science perspective.

Tried something new this weekend. We often make lime/cilantro rice, trying to be similar to that which is served at Chipotle. And ours has always been sticky and not that fucking great, to be honest. So I read up on how to do it and found something that actually works. First, you buy Basmati rice. I...

Perk. Jethus. Anyone got a pick of that midget standing next to... nevermind. We already have enough midget problems here.

Me and Mrs. 88 hung in until now (10:35 p.m. ET). Got to get up at 4:10 a.m. to take family to the airport. Catch ya next week. Great show, as always.

Free beer tomorrow.

Tonight’s dinner was veal schnitzel with sauerkraut and spaetzel with pork gravy. Bought two veal scallopini portions and coated them with corn starch, egg wash (bit of milk) and bread crumbs. Got to let them dry for a while on a rack. Spaetzel is just egg, half shell of water and flour + salt and p...

Titassville is fun AF when NASA has a big launch.

OBX is cool. We went off season, which is way better. In the summer it is way too crowded. Typical Atlantic beach. Barely surfable waves and lots of wind.

Best scouting in CFB?

That looks great. We were on OBX all weekend. Lots of bar food, with a splash of seafood. Looking to get back in the kitchen soon.

My brother-in-law called to tell me he made Nate Rateliff’s green chili tonight. Now I can’t get it out of my mind. Could be on the horizon.

Any playlist that includes both Elvin Bishop and GG Allin has to be great.

I posted in the cooking forum. Locally, I find the burgers at Brooks Burgers (https://brooksburgers.com/) to be the best around, other than my own.

88BuckeyeGrad

That venue makes me want to go hop on a plane. Never had chorizo in a burger. Mrs. 88 would freak. She is a huge chorizo fan. Our current fave burger is home made. I have no pics. But is made from wagu ground chuck and a thick slice of Vidalia onion. You sort of form the burger around the onion so t...

Cedar planks are crazy easy. Soak them in water for a while (we put them in the sink and weigh them down with glasses filled with water). Then you lay the fish skin side down on the plank and place on the grill, lid closed. Usually about 30 minutes with a hood temp in the low 300F’s. It takes a whil...

Chicken thighs. Big fan. We rub them with Karjos Easispice Jerk Seasoning (Amazon) and put them in the fridge for a at least a day. They get grilled Jamaica style (kind of blackened). We like to serve them with cilantro lime rice and roasted Parmesan acorn squash slices.

We do not get good salmon very often in SWFL. I can buy frozen wild caught salmon now and then. We usually prepare it on cedar planks, and top it with a citrus mixture of diced orange, jalapeños, tomatoes, cilantro, salt and pepper.

Wedge salads are the bomb. Big fans here. We substitute panchetta for bacon at times, and use diced local tomatoes when they are not shitty (often they are shitty). Crumbled Danish blue cheese is our “go to”, with Marzetti’s blue cheese dressing as a gooey drizzle.

So many good meals here. Rando thoughts. For lamb, Mrs. 88 won’t eat it unless it is medium (I would eat it still twitching). We have found a compromise. I get a lamb rack and “lollipop” the ribs. Hers are the “thin” ones and mine are the fatties. The thin ones also get trimmed of fat (and flavor). ...

My wife’s father (deceased, unfortunately), had a degree from Cornell’s hotel/restaurant program and could cook like no man I’ve met other than his son. His father was a butcher, and came from a long line of butchers. I’ve watched them break down beef and pork many times. I would like to see your te...

I go 9-1, and Chip C gets me with a better tie-breaker guess. Rack that dude, whoever he may be.

Thanks to Lefty for all of the "must-pick" selections. Well done, sir. Chip C is the regular season champ. Ordinarily, we would have a Bowl Championship round to determine to whom I should ship a football. Chip C has a few already (He donated a set to a Pee Wee football program in my forme...
