Had babyback ribs, Cajun shrimp and wings in a lousiana dip that was really good. Washed down with a Sam Adams Summer Ale. Quite an enjoyable repast.

gf is out of town so i meated it up

half a ribeye, half an andouille, half a sausage that apparently had peppers and onions in it. corn on cob. a tomato with salt, pepper, garlic powder.  i'll have the other halves of those meats tomorrow. ribeye was actually better than i thought even though i overcooked it (medium). still calibrating my grill...

i thought of it too late and dont feel like drinking too much tonight, but i would have opened a red wine (malbec) someone gave me to have with the steak. i kinda just ate things as they were done

That sounds like a real manly meal, good job.  Malbec works with the ribeye, but the andouille demands beer.

2 references to a gf in the last week, this must be getting serious.  Guess if AC can do it, you should easily be able to make progress.

Ali - JMW4th was thinking about brining his kid.  Is the Screaming Eagles area a bit rowdy for a young'n?
To be clear, I do not think JMW4th will be soaking his kid in salt water.  Enjoy the game.
He could own a goat.
Anyone ever brine a baby goat?

Had some awesome korean shortribs at a tailgate yesterday. Now I really want to try making them. Any suggestions? These were grilled and I would probably also use the grill since it's too freakin' hot to fire up anything inside.

here's what i use as a marinade for bulgogi or short ribs:

- 1 cup of red wine vinegar
- 2 tbsps of sugar
- 1 cup of soy sauce
- 2 cloves of garlic minced
- 1 tbsp of sesame seeds
- 1 cup of chopped green onion/scallion
- tsp of sesame oil
- salt/pepper

marinate for at least an hour and grill.

Last night I made a guacamole using the above, but substituting a couple of cloves of roasted garlic for the shrimp.

Did the shrimp taste too "limey"? I tried another ceviche recipe calling for scallops and key lime juice and the pucker factor was too high for me. Maybe scallops are more pourous than shrimp or key lime juice is more tart.

Try cutting the lime juice with orange juice and reducing the marinate time to a couple of hours.

If it's too limey, try boiling the shrimp for about a minute, then marinate for 3-4 hours and you'll be fine.  I do use fresh-squeezed lime juice.

Anyone have some good vegan/veggy recipes?

I've cut about 40 pounds in the last couple months switching to an all veggy/vegan diet... but the food options are starting to bore me now.
