I have seen this product. Back when I was bachelor AF and was eating chicken tenders from my grocers freezer section 3-4 nights a week I used to mix ranch and BBQ and call it nugget sauce.

I think Woodmans carries the ketchupeño a local restaurant used to have. Going to pick some of that up next time I go.

Selling homes on the Gulf Coast of Florida
Since I am working out of my home office during covid, I have time to cook. Amy thinks she's living at a moderately good restaurant. She put a week's pics up on FB and I got a ton of likes and offers to fly me out to people to cook for them. ?

My buddy, who comes over for dinner often, says he'll open a restaurant in Mexico if we want to move down there with them. Don't know about that. I love poker but, when I played it professionally, I lost the love for it. Would cooking be the same?

At the least, I would need to take a class or two on sauces before going pro. I suck at sauces.

Went full ham today at Costco. They were out of packer briskets, so I asked them if they had any in back. Dude gives me a thumbs up and said to give him a minute. Figured I would look through all the meat and found this gem. Damn near 3lb bone in prime ribeye. Then, they brought out 2 of the biggest prime packers I have ever seen, so I figured why the hell not. Can’t wait for the meat sweats from this.

I am cooking the ribeye tonight using sous vide at 128. Then, I bought some grape seed oil to sear it in my cast iron at the end. Pumped.

$3.29 is really solid for a prime brisket
Last two prime briskets i got from Sams were sub 3$ a lbs. I think the one i just did was $2.88. Choice was like $2.71.

Made me feel really burned for getting a 2.8 lbs Tri tip for over 30 bucks earlier. Then cut 10 oz of fat cap off it. Seems like i always get hosed on tri tips. Unless 10ish bucks a pound is the new normal?

With these larger packer briskets I might start separating the flat and point. I just made one overnight for the in laws on their way to an elk hunt. It is resting now, but will try to snap some pictures when I take her out and slice it up in an hour or so. I tried the pink butcher paper instead of foil this time.

I cook mine at 225 so I never really get them to 210 before the probe slides through like butter. The 18lb one I just did took 14 hrs and was in the mid to upper 190’s when I pulled it.
