    I'm with you in that I don't mind a little spice but not to the point it burns my mouth.  The easiest way to ruin a meal is to make it too hot where it numbs your taste buds.

    I have family and friends down in Louisiana?they go your way...add flavor to your jambalaya,shrimp etoufee,crawfish boil..etc..just don't overwhelm the food.

    if folks want more of the hot sauce..the bottles are on the tables.

    Doc Brown..you know cooking?

    I enjoy a cold steak sandwich on a nice toasted roll with arugula, tomato and horseradish. I’m also not above just eating it doused in Worcestershire sauce! I love me some W sauce! 

    Tell me how underrated Worcestershire really is??? Many top star eateries use it but they don't announce it because it's basically sun fried anchovie oil..people don't want to hear that word.

    Who doesn't like Mexican food?  I mostly like leftovers for lunch and all I have access to is a microwave at work so maybe I'll soak it in gravy next time.  At least if the steak sucks I can enjoy the gravy :) 

    My wife does not like spice..she won't eat much mexican..I do like it,just not fire hot.

    My issue with steak is it's nearly impossible to reheat it without losing some or most of its flavor.  The best you can do is eat it cold.

    Hey doc..not sure if you like Mexican food..but you can do a quick heat up for a fajita..with grilled peppers and onion..sour cream etc..not bad.

    Also..I am home alone a lot..so I can reheat in Gravy..low heat and the toast bread.

    Open face beef sandwich..pretty tasty! I add a bit of horseradish..

    I do the same thing, seasoning before I cook. Some of the best chefs in the country will tell you not to add the pepper, as it will burn and add a bitter taste. Thomas Keller (of French Laundry and Per Se fame) says salt enhances a flavor (like acid) and pepper adds a new flavor. He uses very little pepper.

     

    It’s interesting the conflicting views on things we all think we know (see the Seriouseats article @plenzmd1 linked). Well, as long as we like the finished product who cares? 

    When I tried to nearly kick the salt habit..we went with Mrs dash.

    just ok but good if you like a lemon zest kick.

    P.S.- my brother loves Montreal on his steaks (heavy pepper).

     

    Peace

    ...today is flank steak marinated in a chimichurri marsala sauce, marinated lemon pepper mushrooms caps and green/red/jalapeno peppers...grand finale is roasted corn on the cob with olive oil and reggiano parmigiano....party of one though....

    Never heard of chimichurri sauce OT.I

    bride went to Wegmans yesterday for bison..no bison for the kabobs..she bought pre-made from the butcher.. Chicken(boneless)soaked in Wegmans italian.No pineapple,mini tomato or peppers.It was darn lousy..28 bucks for 4.Never again.I

    You say olive oil for the corn..you grease the grill with olive oil or rub it into the kernels and then put the husk back on..

  7. I've spent a lot of money on white vinyl fencing..6 feet.

    My bride talks to the neighbors because she walks the dog and loves to bull#### with people.

    I smile and wave to them..when they start to gab and ask stupid questions..I simply tell them I'm busy with something.

    A few years ago..the woman across the street would actually come over into my garage if she saw me out...

    I shut that down..luckily split.

    I haven't watched any of this Giants series but it sure seems we can easily be going for the sweep today.  

    Cano is benched again today.After we saw him beat his chest last Saturday evening..he's 3 for 21.

    Facts are facts...

    We ended up giving up a 19 year old prospect that throws 95 mph to the Rays for Font which turned into cash.. It’s such a bad look. 

     

    Catalina is 6-foot-6, just turned 19 and has a fastball that hits 95 mph. The #Mets signed him for $150,000 out of the Dominican Republic last year.

     

    The Mets gave up his young potential and intrigue for 15 games from Font.

    I stopped following Kelenic in single A ball,he was another solid future stud.

    Thankfully the suit didn't move McNeil or Alonso in the off season,you know he thinking about it.

    I've been away recently and not dialed in, but as I see it here's where we stand:

     

    67 games left, 5 games out of the wild card (not bad except there's only one team further away)

    4 game winning streak (including two on the road against a .600  first place team)

    Wheeler would be a decent trade chip if he didn't just get hurt

    Thor could bring back a haul but I don't think that trade is in Brodie's DNA

    I'd trade Frazier to free up playing time for McNeil and Davis.

    I'd trade Dom Smith if it brought back something of value. Same with Ramos. Not sure if dumping either would be worth the return.

    The bold move would be moving Rosario and rolling the dice on Hechavarria. 

    Dr. K had another relapse. That sucks.

    Ending on a positive note, Alonso won the HR Derby. Wish I had seen that.

     

    Did I miss anything?

     

    Lets Go Mets!

     

     

     

    I missed your takes...a few other things happened.Font went to Toronto for cash and the suit had a short presser that was worthless.

    Born and raised in Cheektowaga, but after 30 years in the Navy wound up retiring in Virginia Beach, still try to make it up there for a game when I can. 

    My parents first house was 77 Cheekwood Drive..had it built..then we moved to Como Park Blvd once my sisters and brother was born.

    Big news for the week:Polish Festival at Town Park.

    Get back home..?

    Many years ago I enjoyed distance running as a hobby.  The rule of thumb was urine that is virtually clear indicates proper hydration.  I do not know if that also took into account electrolytes present.  The sports drink Gookinaid (now marketed as Vitalyte) was a factor in keeping my electrolytes balanced.

    So..you think the sports drinks are the same as vitamin water? I thought the sports drinks were high in sodium..I don't want that.

    I need to start reading labels...

  13. The two of them are from the same cloth...not many people know that they eat with their families at OBD..Beane sleeps there sometimes...Coach demands to have his breakfast at home with his children.

    Could you see that happening when Marrone and Whaley were here...even though Whaley would spend many hours in his office..the family connection was missing..and Marrone liked it that way.

    We're in a good place right now...these men WANT to be here.

    I literally have 2 dozen Pedialyte Popsicles in my freezer for my son.....this thread just reminded me about those.

    I am really getting into the glaceau zero cal vitamin water..the Orange tastes like tic tacs,my favorite..also enjoy the lemonade.

    Damn near every night I was waking up with spasms in my left foot...it has helped relieve that issue...my back..not so much.

    I try to drink as much water as possible...almost to the point of vomiting..we all have different chemical make ups..or we might have kidney problems?

    Love everything about this post EXCEPT Rays to B’lo. I WANT MLB in Buffalo, but not American League. I’m too much of a Yankees fan. Any NL team and YES!, bring the Buffalo Braves back and ship out the Jags!

    I feel you #81...I'm a huge Mets fan.I would have tough time rooting for Buffalo if they were playing them.
