What's for dinner?

Pulled pork, cowboy beans, seven layer salad, Hawaiian rolls, green beans with bacon and onions, fruit ambrosia, shrimp cocktail, Dairy Queen ice cream cake, homemade tapioca pudding, and thin mint girl scout cookies. Fasting time now!

Wendy did say that the vegetable mix was from a packet, so my guess would be machine cut that way…

nice. they seem so festive.

The Dollar Tree here has a freezer section with 1 lbs. bags of festive frozen veggies and bags of fruits for $1. They even carry 14 oz. smoked sausages for $1. I like some of their canned goods too. 1 lbs. pink Himalayan salt $1.

That sounds like the British version of Iceland… a chain that offers the most £1 frozen-meals range.

not gonna lie i would probably try some

ive never really cooked much of anything in a crock pot but one presented itself to me and i decided to freeball it and try and see what happens if i throw a bunch of shit in there. so i got these 2 tri-tips total about 4 or 5 lbs and seared them in a skillet full of bacon grease from last night. then i halved a bunch of potatoes, chopped some carrots and onion, broke up and threw in 2 whole heads of garlic, a bunch of rosemary and salt, pepper, etc. poured in a liter of beef stock and then just threw these 2 big seared chunks on top and am just gonna leave it until i’m too hungry to not just start eating it and see how it goes.

gonna be real right now the shit smells pretty good. i want it like falling apart at that point where you can just kind of cut it with a fork. i think it’ll get there.

should i just throw some of that leftover bacon grease in the pot?

ive never done this before.

I doubt it would be very tasty. Youd hear about it otherwise and if you look at their skin, meats probably best in dried strips. Youd have a whole truckload of them though.

Looks good by the way, specially the bacon grease sounds great.

One thing you ought to try out is once this. Its Indonesian soy based flavoring but its the best thing youll find in this category. The dutch have this as a standard ingredient in each kitchen.

One drop of this in some scrambled eggs is insane. It can be used virtually in anything thats roasty. A drop in the smothering onions and mushrooms of steak-gravy is inanely savorish.

i think if you cooked some elephant for long enough to render the fatty parts down into a gelatinous goo that deliciousness would be inevitable. is there anything that you can’t slow cook for long enough to make it delicious? you’d maybe have to season it with some pretty strong stuff but ive got a feeling that there’s a way

here is one of the most amazing things that you can do at 3am.

fry bacon.

then…

throw some bread in the skillet and make bacon fat toast.

FUCK YOU ARTERIES

I guess but then these things get really old.
And I dont know if Id be down to eat a baby elephant dude.

sometimes i think about how back in the caveman days you could just eat a dinosaur steak straight off the fire

then this friend of mine who is all mr bible college religious historian guy is like…

bruh cavemen and dinosaurs weren’t even around at the same time

and im like

fuck you man you don’t know that

Id rather eat hippo.

i mean i dunno if i’d wanna kill it and be the one to make that move

but if i rolled up on a cookout and that’s what they were already serving i mean i could try some since at that point the only ethical decision lift would be to at least not let it go to waste

can you fry it’s skin like a pork rind?

Although, they might be blubbery.

I was thinking since I like fish maybe they have something sea-food ish as well maybe something boarish.

thats what im talking about man. pretty much every other living thing in the world besides ourselves are basically just food. why are we not out here eating all kinds of shit? like what if hippo was better than lobster or a wagyu steak and we don’t even know it?

could you imagine like a massive hippo farm somewhere in iowa or something with like tens of thousands of them just lined up for slaughter rolling around in mud and shit?
