What's Cookin?

The groups horizons are so much broader than mine.

It is funny that the military carried me to a number of places around the world and 'their foods' never really stuck with me. Never got excited about trying new foods.

On a mediterranean deployment once we were underwater for about 50 days, surfaced, pulled into Haifa, Israel. Coming off the pier/base I saw the Golden Arches of McDonalds. I didn't see the point in going any further.

In England I went out on limb for Fish and chips. In Lamadalena, Palau and Sardinia I stumbled upon Stromboli. Maybe my biggest stretch.

My wife on the other hand enjoys the pics you guys post as her and my son 'love food' and will try just about anything.

They say I am just stuck on boring.

I really do not go further than salt and pepper when cooking and the occasional use of pepper when eating.

This plate is from a convenience store grill on my way to work. They make a mean pork chop sandwich in the morning as well.

This plate pushed a turd as well anywhere.

Stuck on boring I guess. LOL

Bak was on fish kick on one of the weekends we rolled.

I swear that guy knew where every fish joint was from here to the mountains.

Just out of the blue he would say, "Take the next exit". And it would be some kick ass fish joint in the middle of nowhere.

Purepower was the most country dude I ever met. He could smell chitlins from two counties over and I would say "not today Big Man".

Funny you mentioned him because he was the talk this morning. One of the last dogs we bred together threw a male that titled last night.

Every dog he ever owned had "twenty penny nails in his mouth and cut shit up like a Husqvarna chain saw".

Small world.

Wagyu Picanha steak.

My son is really into expensive meats and expensive bourbons.

I think he is living way beyond his raisings, but he works and pays his own way.

This was incredible.

He got this from Snake River Farms.

Yep.

The best fried chicken on the planet was in an old dilapidated building we called the "Green Fly Restaurant". The big green horse flies were ever present.

The older black lady at the front may say, "Can I help you?" or she may say, "WTF do you want?" and on some days she would say how she was sick and tired of white people trying to eat like black people.

You smile, take it like a champ and get the very best fried chicken in the world with long neck Budweiser's that was so cold I thought the glass would break.

Straight hole in the wall.
