The audacity of these people to not even try to hide these things in the interview is astounding.

Did you have to replace the outlet? Or are you on a standard 120V?
120V is not standard for an electric cooktop/range, 240v is. Further, induction uses the same 240v receptacle.
Wynkoop Brewing Company. Good food, good beer, and a nice aesthetic. They have bison burgers as well.

Why doesn't one of these failing fast food chains just shut everything down and reopen with the exact food/recipes they had in the 90s. Would be huge.
After using a french press at work i think id recommend going with a V60 style pour over instead personally. A bit easier to clean up.

Maybe not a small job but just from personal experience pretty easy/quick with a trencher. Rent a ditch witch fro ~$300 for a couple hours and you can dig the trench in no time. This is water supply not sewer drain so no need to be exact with depth or worry about the slope.

This is standard unless you specifically request an irrigation meter. Most people don't care enough to water their lawn like you do and it is a non issue. If you wanted an irrigation meter, it is something you would need to specify in the build.
That being said, just get an irrigation meter installed, dig a trench yourself, and run some pex to where you need it. It mike take you a little time but it is really pretty simple.

I think I will have to try a somewhat cajun flavor next... or maybe like a sweet heat

A lot of that excess spice falls off when you take it out to cut. Did you always have the same traditional seasoning or any other unusual ones you tried you liked?

It is definitely a bit of a pain to cut. Wish I would have done a little thicker on the steaks.
It is a dried beef similar to how prosciutto is dried ham, biltong is typically dried top/bottom round. Meant to be sliced thin against the grain.
Biltong [W/ Pics]
Posted by Tadey on 7/27/26 at 1:26 pm
Tried my hand at making South African Biltong when top round went on sale at Rouses a week or two ago. It came out pretty good, but wish the cuts they had available were a little bigger and a little more biltong friendly.
I used a pretty traditional spice blend from 2 guys and a cooler.
Hung to try with plastic coated paper clips and weighed each before/after drying.
~6 days later
Final Product:
Anyone else ever make any? This was my first time ever having it much less making it. I thought it was very good but would personally have enjoyed a different (non traditional) flavor profile more most likely. Anyone have any experience making it with different flavors?
I will say the whole process was very easy.

If they are fresh in their own juice put as little batter as possible, and just flash fry them. They are too good on their own. If they aren't fresh or not very salty milk/Tabasco not a bad route.
I will also comment on the salting... if you are salting right before your cook, you are hurting your sear. You need to salt well ahead of time or right after. If you salt right before the sear it will draw our moisture to the surface of the meat then that moisture has to boil off on the surface of the meat before the sear can start.
Reverse searing is objectively, marginally better because you dry out the surface of the meat during the initial cooking period and a dryer surface results in a better sear.
Do not reverse sear unless you have a thick cut. If it's not thick then there is no need for reverse sear/sous vide/etc.

re: Anything to do different frying frog legs vs fish?
Posted by Tadey on 6/24/26 at 6:52 am to ApisMellifera
Some times have a hard time getting batter to stick. What helps is dipping the frog legs in flour before the wet batter then final coat in seasoned flour. This helps the batter to stick a lot better.
Also, don't overcook them especially if they are bigger frog legs. They will get rubbery and tough quick if over cooked.

re: Bergeron's Smoked Chicken Dip

The smoked chicken dip is the only thing I have had from there at a friends house on a few occasions. I don't have any experience with anything else but the smoked chicken dip was awesome.
Why are you old folk on the road after midnight.

I used to love the Bergeron's Meat Market smoked chicken dip, but they don't sell it anymore.
Anyone have a recipe for something close?

re: New Build - Poor Water Pressure
Posted by Tadey on 6/10/26 at 1:41 pm to GeauxTime9
Get you a guage like this and put it on your hose bib and see what the static pressure is with everything shut (this is independent of the feed line size). This would give more info on if it is a city water pressure issue.
3/4' main line is the standard. It is very common and 90% of the time sufficient.
If you have good pressure like 50+psi, then you can probably assume it is pipe size related. If you have less than that the pipe size is probably not the bottle neck.

More specific location matters; for example, if in Lakeview, likely will have to drive piles which significantly increases the price.
