patron, on the rocks

Is there no finer drink? We here in the US of A tend to take taquila as a shot, for no other reason then that it freakin tastes bad. Well, no wonder. We shoot jose cuervo and think that is taquila. That’s like drinking piss when fresh spring water is just next door. We just don’t know it. We figure, if jose tastes this bad then how can any taquila taste any better? Well, let me ask you this, do you buy the gallon jugs of vodka and think that is the epitomy of that particular drink? F*** no! Then why waste time with jose when patron can be had?

As I get older I realize that drinking is not about showing off, it’s about what tastes good. Hell yes, jose is a lot less expensive then patron, but so is bilge water to fresh spring. I less and less feel the need to “prove” anything to these little dorks who thinks it’s about quantity, not quality. Ooooooh, you drank 8 shots of s***. Congratu-f***ing-lations. Now, go puke your haert out since that is what you were trying to do. As for me and my house, we’re gonna drink the good stuff.

And you can quote me on that.

In the spirit

I am a heinous, heinous person for opening with a pun. But, I have new website to visti before going raiding: Extratasty.com. It’s a site of all kinds of drink recipies, with the capability of recommending drinks based on the ingredients you have in your liquor cabinet (cupboard, etc.).

Old but good

The never seen member of the website sent me this link. If I was a vodka man, I’d be all over it. As it is, all I can say is “Good for them.” I’d have loved to be there for the testing.

Burgers

Everyone that knows me, knows that I like cow. Ground, grilled, stewed, however. I love to eat the meat.* Now, even I would balk at eating a a 15 pound burger, much less the 10 pound one this chick ate.

Denny’s Beer Barrel Pub had offered a 6-pound burger – with 5 pounds of toppings.
In February, a 100-pound female college student became the first to eat the burger within the three-hour time limit. Kate Stelnick, of Princeton, N.J., was awarded a special certificate, a T-shirt and other prizes and Leigey picked up the $23.95 tab for the burger.

Busybody ignored

With all the carping about shilhood obesity, at least some people know where the proper place to deal with it is.

“Personally I am getting tired of hearing about your family’s health and social issues,” said an e-mail from Uta M. Cicalese. “I would much prefer that you deal with them behind the closed doors of your home.”

Basically, this lady moves into a neighborhood and immediately starts criticizing the food and snacks that are being served at the local school. Everyone else’s response? “Maybe if you taught your kid some restraint, he wouldn’t be a fat ass.” Ok, maybe I paraphrased and nothing like that was ever said, but that’s what it sounds like is going on. What’s funny is the woman even tried to get the healthy stuff on the menu for a trial period, and the kids wouldn’t touch the stuff. Let’s hear it for parent’s who know who is responsible for their children.

CoR - John Boy’s Chili

Here’s a recipie from our last CFC Chili Cookoff. Next time, I’ll be putting up a slightly hotter chili.

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1/2 green pepper chopped up
  • 1/4 onion
  • 1 Packet of “Chili-O” (find in the gravy section)
  • 1 can Spicy Chili Beans
  • 1 can Diced Tomatoes with Juice and Jalepeno
  • RealLemon Juice
  • Honey
  • Barbeque Sauce
  • Chili powder
  • Black Pepper

Brown the beef, throw in the peppers, Chili-O, and Chili Powder, and barbeque sauce. Mix everything. Add the tomatoes and the beans. Mix about a 1/4 cup (total) of honey and lemon juice and microwave them so it’s all liquid. Add onions to the microwave mix, as well as some chili powder and the pepper seeds and black pepper. When the microwave mix tastes interesting enough, toss it in with everything else. Bring it all to a boil and then let it simmer overnight.

Recommended beer: Killian’s Irish Red.
