I thought I was lucky when my wife didnt beat me having my hatch on the dining room table for 6 months.

She is pretty laid back but I dont even think im laid back enough for an engine in the kitchen

 

Im not even allow to have the garage for a full day to work on my car... let alone a hatch in the dining room haha

 

it was only in the kitchen for about 3 days then moved to the garage for full assembly.

the reason why i put it in the kitchen was because you have to be in a really sterile environment when building the bottom end.

i had to vacuum and mop the floors to make sure no dust or lint was going to brush up on the block. and i used lint free tack cloth along with denatured alcohol to rub all of the crankshaft journals and bearings 1 pass each time and used a air compressor to install all the bearings. if just 1 little piece of lint gets into the bearings during install it will mess up the bearings.

 

I really don't like the term "foodie" because it's such a hipster term. Hahahahaha. But ya, I am something of a foodie. I do the occasional semi-pro catering gig for small parties.... Not much lately but something to do for fun.

Fire up them woks, gents! Laff...

 

I don't often cook t-bones.

But when I do....



It's P-O-R-T-E-R-H-O-U-S-E, baby!! Gotta love them loins. Hahahahahahaaaaaaaa!

To keep it topical.....


Gonna miss TMIMITW.... no matter who they choose, it's going to be a let down....

...because they passed me over. Hmmmmph.

 

I prefer filet mignon to tbones. Something about a butter soft slice of beef is just yum.

 

Wa time should we show up?

While I bring coors or some s.top?

 

Haha I remember when I use to ride. I met with this guy who use to park and service his full blown track bike in his living room in his appt.

I was like whaaaa!! Had a beer and went for a cruise to a forum bike meet.

 

With it being fathers day weekend, rip dad, i am drinking the beer he used to drink...busch.

 

Wellllllllllllll..... the filet mignon IS part of the tenderloin - from the short loin (middle, top of cow) - and is the self same piece of meat on the "small side" of a Porterhouse so essentially, you are eating filet mignon when you get a good Porterhouse. Lots mo' beef though.... and cooked with bone-on, oh yeah.

Note: Although that's technically not true as the true "filet mignon" is from the small end of the tenderloin.



OK, I've hijacked this thread enough.... but wanted to "show off" some of the dishes I'm proud of so I posted them here:

Dirt.

I like your good attitude about the midnight snack.

Nice rhetoric. Wait until it happens and is accompanied by diaper blow out.

 

I change his diapers now, he change my diapers later. Haha

This!

I probably come off as a huge food snob when I tell people this. I also feel like a pretentious arsehole when I try to correct their usage of the word "filet."

What cut of meat do you like?

I like "filet."

Sure - I know you like your meat 'cut,' but what cut is your favorite?

Filet.

You do know that 'filet' means cut, right?

However, if people started saying they preferred tenderloin, about 75% of the population would be clueless.
