GM's thread about nothing (15 Viewers)

Pork Chops Place the pork chops on your grilling surface, close the grill and cook each side for three minutes on high. Reduce the heat level to low, by either adjusting the propane or raising the grill rack. Use the meat thermometer to carefully monitor the temperature; you are waiting at this point for the internal temperature to exceed 145 degrees F. When inserting the meat thermometer make sure it is in the middle of the cut and when removing it make sure you use a glove as the probe can get quite hot

145 for pork? Seems pretty low. Of course, I'm always paranoid about undercooking pork and chicken for some reason.

You can leave pork pink in the middle.

My thoughts on Oklahoma and Garage Sales

I was going to skip your post after this first line, but then I realized that I don't know anything about the great state of OK. So now have you to thank for the stereotypes I will pass along to my urban friends.

Glad I could be of service.

found the recipe online...seemed to work

What were the chops like at 145? Still fairly pink?

[Mr.Pack]

had some friends over yesterday to grill...tried some new recipes out, all were great

Tenderloin

Turn grill as hot as it can go – close lid until it heats up all the way

When it's heated, open the grill and place the tenderloin on the grill

Turn every couple of minutes until it just hits 155 in the thickest part

Take it off the grill, cover for 5 minutes or so. You should have a nice crust, and pink, tender-as-hell meat.

Pork Chops

Place the pork chops on your grilling surface, close the grill and cook each side for three minutes on high.

Reduce the heat level to low, by either adjusting the propane or raising the grill rack.

Use the meat thermometer to carefully monitor the temperature; you are waiting at this point for the internal temperature to exceed 145 degrees F. When inserting the meat thermometer make sure it is in the middle of the cut and when removing it make sure you use a glove as the probe can get quite hot

Filet

Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.

Sear the steak first on both sides (1 minute each)

Lower the heat so as not to dry it out.

Rare is 130ºF, medium is 145ºF and well done is 160ºF.

Have the steak sit for five minutes after grilling to allow the juices to be retained within the meat.

Approx 5 minutes/side

I do not recommend cooking a tenderloin that long. 155 at the thickest is medium well or even higher if it sits long enough. Everything else sounds okay

This is spot on.Grilled a Tenderloin last night. Pulled it off at 145 and it was still a little too well done.

There's a place out here in Socal called Jinky's. They have awesome pancakes. They even make a Red Velvet pancake. ###### I want one this weekend! DAMN YOU CARMAGEDDON!!!!

There's a SoCal food truck that serves Red Velvet pancakes. Buttermilk Truck. Heard they're awesome, follow the twitter and you might be able to find them on your side of the city.

BTW, Carmaggedon might be worse than the SuperDome during Katrina. It's gonna be hell out there. I'm gonna stockpile food and ammo, just in case. Can't wait to see a totally red SigAlert map.

What is Carmaggedon?

Some overblown news story about some west coast liberal p###ies having to take a detour for a day.

Jesus, who pissed on your stack of pancakes?

The rest of the country deals with detours and road construction all the time without feeling the need to whore for attention because of an inconvenience. Why the #### do I care that a few people in L.A. are going to have to drive a little out of their way for a few days? That's as much a national news story as my paperboy ####ing up all the houses he delivered to this morning.

Hey Grumpasss - I was the one who didn't know what the hell Carmegeddon was in the first place.

Why don't you and Shuke stop yelling at me and resume telling the kids to get off your front lawn.

Bunch of bittermen up in here.

How many LSU graduates does it take to screw in a lightbulb? One, but it's worth 3 credit hours.

 

[General Malaise]

Got up at 5 AM to drive three hours to work a garage sale in Oklahoma. Please pray for the people around me.

Wait...what?

I'm regretting every second of it. Getting chewed out by a lady this very second because our "garage" sale was listed as an "estate" sale. She wants to know who died.

Wow. Women sure do love to chew you out.

they were a tad pink, but mostly white (or whatever you call the color that a pork chop is when cooked)

 

[General Malaise]

I am also glad that SLB does not have the big C. I'm not sure Gadzooks deserves Mrs. SLB.

This is probably true. However, my friend, you are not an option for her. It would be too much of a shock for her to go from SLB's bald head to your head of magical outer space hair.

Hedberg - more overrated than truly sucky I guess, but not very good

Hedberg's album Mitch All Together is Top 10 comedy album, imo. His body of work is small, however, and because he died young, I do agree that he's overrated at times (see: Kinison, Sam. Woefully overrated, especially by EG). Despite that, saying he sucked is merely stick poking and untrue.

My thoughts on Oklahoma and Garage Sales, as I had many hours to myself to ponder things as I worked the cash box.On Oklahoma:The typical Oklahoma girl - Got by in high school with a cute face, big #### and a round ###. She played enough basketball/volleyball/softball/ran track to keep her stomach from getting out of hand and keeping a decent figure. Post high school she no longer plays basketball/volleyball/softball/runs track, so her gut is now bigger than her #### and ### combined. But this does not keep her from wearing her wind shorts, running shoes and her All-District shirt from 1999/2002/2008. She works double shifts at Braum's.The typical Oklahoma guy - Tall lanky guy thanks to the power of meth and little to no hair. Is married to typical Oklahoma girl. He could do better than her, but her double shifts at Braum's brings in 85% of the family's income, so it's her that keeps him in South Pole gear and small, unrelated, yet many tattoos. The Casino - Being a person from Texas, I know of all the casinos right at the border set up to take all of our money and leave it across the red river, but as we were travelling, I found two casinos that had no visible roads to them. It looked that you had to cross fields in a tractor to get there. Is this a secret that only Oklahomans know? On Garage Sales and Possessions:Garage Sales are stupid, you aren't going to make any money, and they are only going to piss you off. Anything you label for a dollar, you are going to sell it for 50 cents and you are going to spend half an hour of your time to sell it. Word of advice, if you are looking to sell something over 100 dollars, put it on Craigslist. If it's under that, donate it to Goodwill and take the tax write off. You will be so much happier with this act of generosity. Professional garage sale buyers might be the most annoying people on the Earth. As I posted earlier, a lady read me the riot act about the sale listed as an "estate sale" instead of a "garage sale". Wanting to know who died was classic. She then complains about all of the prices, spends 15 mins standing around quietly talking with other about how it's clearly not an estate sale, and then brings up a stack of books and demands the prices that Goodwill offers. I had to play nice and was just trying to get rid of stuff, but if this was my sale, I would have forced her off my property.We as a nation have way too much stuff. I have been reading a ton about minimalism, and toying with the idea when I am single again, only owning 100 things. It just makes sense. Yes, my aunt was a slight hoarder of things she bought off TV, but it made me look at my own possessions and really find value in not having them. The amount of money I have spent on things that I no longer need or gave away a long time ago would make me sick if I knew the number.

Excellent post here. My mother is an Estate Sale person. She will buy all sorts of crap and then try to pawn it off on me. She also gives this crap out as gifts for Xmas. My basement is littered with other people's crap that my mom thinks we need. I finally put an end to it last year and said no more things. I want to live like a Scandinavian, with about 10 things in my house, no trinkets, no dessert cups, no dinner bells, no Wedgewood. Great riff on Okahoma, too. Having camped in that state a number of times, your descriptions are spot on. It's a state where education goes to die. It's a state where a man named Oral has more power than the governor. It's a state with no dentists. You ever cross over the Red River only to see that there's actually NO RIVER there? Ugly....
