Looks like a great meal. I have a #26 in matte navy, given to me as a gift, that has served me well.
I know some guys that don’t cook all the time look at the prices on this stuff and say, $300 on sale, what the heck. However, if you cook and if you plan to cook your whole life long, good cookware and similar items are cheap. Cry once.
As I mentioned above, I was a Mess Sgt as a 21 year old in the Vietnam era Army Guard. I was in construction management my whole life but continued to cook when time allowed. I have cooking items that are decades old and have paid for themselves in longevity. Like hiking boots, quality costs.
Too add flavor and help tenderize.
I agree completely. I have a DeBuyer carbon steel sauté pan that I’ve been cooking on for years that was not inexpensive but is great at what it does and is a pleasure to work with. I feel the same way about tools. And yes, shoes. You really get what you pay for with shoes. I’ve been wearing a pair of USA made Allen Edmonds boots almost daily for about five years now. Had them resoled by a local cobbler when the original leather soles wore out. Now in year 3 with the Vibram replacement soles. Uppers still look good and in fact have improved with age in some ways.
Lone Star started as Budweiser, has been owned by Missouri, Wisconsin, Washington, Detroit, and is currently held by PBR (which is owned by a Russian guy and a San Francisco company), and is made by Miller. Tastes like it, too.
If you want real flavor and real National Beer of Texas, get a case of Shiner!
The Lone Star thing is just a “match” for ‘Dillo stuff because I drove upon one in the road several decades ago that was dead and someone had put a LS bottle in it’s paws.
I definitely drink Shiner over LS any day. I lived in Texas for 40 years so I’ve downed a few thousand Shiner Bocks.
I usew cheap beer for cooking and drink the good stuff.🍺
