re: PSA: Why you should use brown eggs

I can crack a dozen eggs one handed without getting shells in the eggs or breaking the yolks. It's my superpower :lol:

Didn't know this existed. There is a reason why folks cook these outside.
re: Live Crawfish from Rouses

Open the drain plug, add a layer of ice and a towel, then the sack of crawfish. Prop the lid open to hold overnight, never had any problem.
re: Live Crawfish from Rouses

We got a sack from Rouses in Central for Easter, I held them in a cooler overnight as always and when I opened the bag 2/3 were dead. I boil enough to know that sometimes you just get a bad sack, not really bad on them. They did make it right by replacing it but that wouldn't be possible in your case. The crawfish were medium-large and took a little work to clean, nothing to be mad about.
The manager said they get crawfish from six different suppliers which makes quality control more difficult. Not sure I'll buy there again knowing that part.

re: Sound bars
Posted by ThreeBonesCater on 4/17/26 at 10:50 am to yakster
I replaced an old surround system in the living room with SONOS Playbase, sub, and Play1 surrounds 10 years ago. They sound great, get very loud, and easy to setup but most of thier stuff doesn't have bluetooth which is frustrating for how expensive it was. I now have the SONOS for TV only and Bose Revolve speakers throughout the house for music. This setup is very versatile and easy but total cost was north of $4k.
I also have Polk React surround system setup in the master bedroom. The sound is great, it is wireless and has bluetooth, and was less than 1/3 cost of the SONOS. Polk no longer manufactures this but replaced with MagniFi which looks and costs similar. If I had to start over I'd go this route, maybe some extra bluetooth speakers for the pool and patio, and save a ton of money.
I would at least add a sub for the soundbar or you'll likely be disappointed with the upgrade.

I picked up an 18 lb one today, sell by date March 31, under $60. It will take some trimming but is a good looking packer.

That looks great. I made a close version of this Meat Church chili last weekend, it was the best I ever made. I like black beans and I did add them.

re: First Time Smoking Beef Shank on My New Weber Searwood
Posted by ThreeBonesCater on 3/3/26 at 6:11 pm to HogBalls
Shanks look great.
I was once told by a vet to never give cooked bones to the dog. Apparently they splinter when chewing and can cause major issues and even death. Take it or leave it, my pork shoulder bones go in the trash now.

re: What is the worst beach you’ve been to?
Posted by ThreeBonesCater on 2/5/26 at 6:33 pm to gumbo2176
Playa Gran Bahia in Punta Cana. The sargassum came in a few days before we arrived, that water was basically a death trap. It made the beach beyond filthy despite their very best efforts. Thankfully they have swim up bars in the pool. If you still choose to go order the Dirty Monkey 10/10.

The fella that runs Claitor's owns that whole property. We used to sling BBQ out of Earl's and park a food truck on his corner, but I long ago lost his number. If anyone knows him ask about it. We had alot of fun working there, place was wild.

re: Why do people waste money on watches?
Posted by ThreeBonesCater on 12/31/25 at 12:08 pm to WaydownSouth
I appreciate the thought that goes into a well made automatic watch - everything from Seiko to Patek. I don't love the Swiss brand circumvention or other issues that come with it, so I'm very selective. I buy and sell on the secondhand market, making improvements if needed along the way. Its a small hobby, and I've made small hobby money off it.

The Winn Dixie at Hooper and Joor is also changing hands. I went there this morning and they are rearranging the ailes and doing stuff with scissor lifts in the ceiling. They also had all WD store products 40% off so I loaded up a cart with pantry staples.
This used to be the only grocery store in Central. It's older than me, and I'm pushing 50. My Mom is pissed, I'm hopeful for the change.

Last time I went to Albasha I paid nearly $50 for a shawarma, grape leaves, and iced tea. This is like 90% rice, garbanzo beans, and lettuce. I love the food but I just won't do it anymore.
re: Tips for adding shrimp to Mac and cheese?
Posted by ThreeBonesCater on 12/24/25 at 8:11 am to OysterPoBoy
Boudreaux's served Shrimp Mac at my sister's wedding last month. It was fantastic. I've never made it but would sautee cleaned shrimp in butter before adding to the mac and baking it off.
I have made Lobster Mac, also delicious. This is a whole different process though.

I knew I was getting old when I went to the eye doctor and she told me "we don't call them bifocals, we call them progressives."

Ours was broken when we bought the house. I had to dig it out with a prybar. We replaced it with an undercounter ice machine.
