I have to take veeeery small bites and chew veeeery carefully, or my diaphragm goes haywire. Same with whisky, particularly the smoky ones. Which is a good thing as I have no choice but to take my time and sip and so I avoid getting absolutely gazeboed on the stuff... 11 minutes ago, Starrynight22 said: This sentence keeps making me giggle Lol!

Thorn Wilde Posted January 2, 2019 Posted January 2, 2019 Speaking of spicy things, I present to you for your amusement the following. Danish boys' choir sings Oh Come All Ye Faithful after eating whole chilis: Spoiler It says ghost peppers in the description, but if you look at the ones the smaller boys are eating, they're the wrong size and colour. It would be super irresponsible otherwise. And Matt Mercer, a talented voice actor and Dungeon Master of the popular D&D stream/podcast Critical Role, reviews the video game Bloodborne after eating a dried ghost pepper dipped in Dr. Assburn's hot sauce: Spoiler 2 1

Boiled them in veggie stock, with salt-n-pepper, a little bit of spicy stuff and our family secret of Hog Jaw Grease. Really good and go to town! The key is what you cook them in and for how long.

OX tail is good in a soup! not fond of chitlins, or pork rinds Rocky Mountain Oysters need to be done right, and they should be from calves,more tender and better flavor that way 2 2
Brayon Posted January 2, 2019 Posted January 2, 2019 I like Bison steak and burger. OH SO GOOOOOOD! My Aunt, the Uncle I'm staying with his Ex-Wife, sent down a ton of Deer Meat, freshly killed Beef portions, and homemade Pork Sausage. It's packed in the freezer. 3

Kitt Posted January 2, 2019 Posted January 2, 2019 (edited) This discussion brings to mind the year a friend served a wild turkey her husband had gotten during hunting season. When I asked how it turned out, she announced quite proudly "It tasted just like turkey!". Uh, yeah... Edited January 2, 2019 by Kitt 1 4
