I was referring to the Daytona 500...

I've been watching from the start.. it's been on the TV anyways... Tried to get some stuff done around da house...

Round and round... wreck... round and round... wreck... round and round... wreck. As Homer Simpson would say... BORING!

Watching a few episodes of Cops in a row.

Sunday afternoon stupid.

Pan fried taters with onions and bell peppers.

Layered over with chorizo, bacon, eggs, and a pancake.

What would you use it for?

Welcome back to Monday fellas.

Gonna take the train up to Chicago today and check out the car show.

Wife needs a new car. When we got married, I said I wasn't gonna buy a jewelry ring, but would buy her a keyring. Bought her a one year old car. That was almost 10 years ago.

I think I'll try a lease this time. We don't drive much. We take a few long trips, but still average under 10k miles a year combined.

Mondays suck.

An ice and snow mix today.

Good morning everyone.

Excellent question! I don't really know... I figured I'd read the recipe book and stuff.

Saw a video of some ribeye steaks they did, then quick seared after... looked pretty damn good. I got a couple fat ribeyes out of the freezer last night.

Drafter!

Morning, ya'll.

Highs over the coming days:

60
69
63
44
56
52
52

Hopefully that is good sign of early spring...although in Ohio, it probably means a massive snow storm in a few weeks. Gotta love Ohio weather.

Okay, so I got the Anova sous vide. Got it price matched for $114.99.

Gonna try it on some ribeye steaks for dinner.

I hope you get what you need.

With some bacon and onions? Damn, now I could go for some of that liver...

Quit halfassing, Throw the veggies in da trash.

Last day of the Chicago auto show. Was gonna head up there with the boy but it took nearly an hour and a half to get even close to the train station, then a train stopped across the road so we missed the train to the city.

Not interested in driving the rest of the way and paying $25 to park so we went back home.

Dammit... I'm having fishing withdrawals now!

I'll have to settle for the ribeyes currently in a water bath.

That was my initial reaction, as well. But curiosity won this time.

If it doesn't come out well, I can always return it.

Depends on what the 'something' is... I ain't falling into that trap.

That's right, Opie... I seasoned 2 ribeyes with kosher salt, fresh cracked pepper, a dash of evoo and freshly smashed garlic... put them in a ziploc bag, and dropped them into 130 degree water for 1.5 hours. When I took them out, I patted them dry and put them in a preheated (really hot) cast iron skillet with a tbls of oil and butter for a sear on each side.

The seasoning was infused well, and the quick sear got the outside crisp. The steak was juicy, done perfectly medium rare, and so good. I'll text you a pic...

Yup.

MACS just texted a bite of the perfectly cooked ribeye!
so funny!

Delicious, thanks Shawn.

Meatloaf.. taters & corns..

I know this steak doesn't exist. I know that when I put it in my mouth, the Matrix is telling my brain that it is juicy and delicious. After nine years, you know what I realize? Ignorance is bliss.
