Chicken's done. Tiny little 2.3lb baby chicken. Asked wife to pick up a chicken when she went to the store. Somehow managed to pay $2.50/lb for a whole chicken. I usually get it for 0.79-1.05/lb.

Shredded it and there's not much, maybe a pound of meat if I'm generous.

Joel,
First of all, WTF is "asada" meat ?

Secondly . . . Here's how to make your own homemade cheesesteak, (providing you can get a decent, crispy Italian roll).
Go to the local butcher and buy a rib eye roast. Other roasts will do, but I prefer ribeyes. Get them to put it on the lunchmeat slicer and slice it VERY thin. Not quite "shaved", but very thin.
Slice or chop up an onion. Fry onions and meat together in a large frying pan with vegetable or canola oil. (Not olive oil !)
Cook on a med to high heat, stirring frequently, (as you would cooking in a wok), until the meat is no longer red.
Top with american or provolone cheese. Cheeze Whiz is a favorite in South Philly, but I prefer the provolone.
And there ya go. Bon apatite`.

that and over time, asada meat has kinda evolved into a term used for basically any beef trimmings that are too tough to grind into good hamburger meat... it's really obvious when someone makes a cheeseteak with it... it's like a taco truck taco on a roll....

I made my Super Bowl homage by getting 7lbs of chuck roast which I sliced into 1/2" strips. 1 can of beer, 1 can of Campbell's beef broth, 2 thin sliced onions and 1 thin sliced green pepper. Placed the meat into a crock pot on top of one onions worth. Poured in cans of broth and beer. Topped with onions and set it for 6 hours. Put it on warm for 4. Used a variety of baguettes, deli rolls and onion buns. Topped with cheddar cheese that was melted.

It was THE hit of the party. There was pizza, wings and all kinds of other food that were leftovers but the cheesesteaks...GONE! We were eating on it before, during, halftime and afterwards too! There was PLENTY for everyone.

Oh yeah....

How big of a deal is waking up back to middle of the night sessions of having an irregular heartbeat?

Feels like strong butterflies fluttering away. Either that or two drummers pounding out two different songs at the same time.

Weather great. Currently 36.

8, Heart palpitations it sounds like, many reasons on why it's happening. Either way, some not so dangerous and some deadly so get it checked out quickly to find out why it's happening.
