I was going to suggest the same thing.

I like it in just about any wet recipe.

You added absolutely nothing helpful, which is standard for you. Come back when someone posts another “is this safe to eat” thread. Those are where you really shine

I asked Grok:

Does the poster with the handle “sixthandbarone” on the website Tigerdroppings provide many helpful comments in the food and drink board of tigerdroppings?

The answer:

Yes, “SixthAndBarone”… is a very active and frequent contributor … and many of their comments are helpful and practical.

They regularly post and reply in threads about recipes, cooking techniques, ….

Their contributions often draw from personal experience, providing specific tips, measurements, adjustments, and advice that others engage with positively.

Examples of their activity and helpfulness:
• Recipes and scaling for crowds: In large-group threads (e.g., gumbo for 30–100 people or lent meals), they offer detailed calculations like roux ratios, rice amounts…

• Gumbo and Cajun/Creole tips: Frequent input on simmering times…

• Grilling and techniques: Started or contributed to threads on grilling pork loin, favorite grill items…

• Other practical advice: Wing sauce recipes/toss ideas… They respond directly to questions with quotes and clarifications.

Asking AI chatbots about your own message board posting is definitely the action of a normal, sane individual

As many have said, ham hock. Goes a long way.

Also, and I presume you do this, but just in case, brown the sausage/meat, then cook the trinity in those drippings.

FFS, you are insufferable.

Harsh, bro, harsh.

I'm told that I have a clown take and that I have no helpful posts. You don't expect me to respond?

3 things -

A splash of red wine vinegar to offset the "earthiness" of the beans. Gives them a little tang.

Cup of tomato sauce - see above. Some people so no way, but Louis Armstrong actually used ketchup in his famous recipe. Also gives a more attractive reddish color.

Lots of celery seed/celery salt.

Short answer: there’s no solid evidence that “sixthandbarone” is known for being especially helpful on the Food & Drink board—and what little is documented leans more toward the opposite (i.e., notoriety/controversy rather than usefulness).

Here’s what can actually be pieced together:

1. Very little public record of that user’s Food & Drink contributions

The TigerDroppings Food & Drink board is active and wide-ranging (recipes, restaurant advice, etc.), but it’s also highly anonymous and thread-based, so individual reputations are mostly built informally. ?

There aren’t clear, accessible examples showing “sixthandbarone” as a consistently helpful contributor in that specific board.

2. The only identifiable mentions suggest notoriety, not expertise

The one concrete reference to that handle indicates they’re remembered for something controversial or memorable:
• They’re grouped among posters tied to “memorable or controversial posts” and possibly heavy downvoting. ?

That’s not how helpful, high-quality contributors are usually described on forums like this.

3. Context: reputation on TigerDroppings is informal and inconsistent

On TigerDroppings:
• Users are anonymous and develop reputations organically over time
• Content quality varies widely—from genuinely useful advice to trolling or inside jokes ?

So unless a poster is widely praised (which leaves a clear footprint), it’s hard to label them as “helpful” in any consistent sense.

?

Bottom line

There’s no evidence that “sixthandbarone” is a notably helpful Food & Drink poster, and the limited references that do exist suggest they’re better known for controversial or memorable posts rather than reliable advice.
