I don’t do pizza parties, but I try to buy lunch once a month a breakfast once a month for my dept. unusually let them choose. Pizza, chick fil a , sandwiches. Whatever they want, just our dept hanging out and eating a free lunch. I am pretty sure they appreciate it.

Caught some crabs in the lake last weekend. Seafood gumbo

Is there a place I can take my kids to maybe get a few dozen crabs using crab nets? Madisonville, Mandeville, etc.

Chicken and sausage gumbo, potato salad.

It’s never too hot for gumbo.

I have been using the 2 pot method for a couple years and the shrimp peel perfectly every time.

First I boil my potatoes and veggies in seasoned water. When they are done I cut it off and let water cool for a little while. Maybe 20-30 mins

In my other pot I bring plain water to a rolling boil and then drop in the shrimp. I don’t time it. I boil them until the meat starts pulling away from the shells. Just keep checking. Once this occurs, I pull them out and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking. I then throw them in the seasoned pot for literally as long as you want. You basically have a 1/16” gap between the meat and shells filled with seasoned water.

Perfect every time.

It seems like a lot but I typically only boil 7-10lbs of shrimp for the family so I am using just a large stock pot.

What happened to protecting the plate with 2 strikes?

I’ll be honest. Quality was basic. Fit was just ok. I don’t recommend it. 200% marketing bullshite. Same quality as Academy BCG line. Avoid it.

It’s good, not great. Moist. Good icing content. Certainly a good value. Something I would bring home to the family on a weekday, but not to a party or friends house.

Father’s Day should be early November, first Saturday. Football, bourbon, campfire, smoker, etc.

If it fails, you still have a RISP with top of the lineup ?
