@JackCarrUSA Just finished Cry Havoc. Great writing as always. My dad was deployed with MACV-SOG as a Seabee. Got a nice inscription from Maj. Plaster.

Hey @JackCarrUSA, just finished Cry Havoc. Great writing as always. My Dad was a Seabee and deployed with MACV-SOG. Got a special inscription from Maj. Plaster too.

.@ChefGruel and @meathead. My wife would like to get me a new set of knives for Christmas. But I don’t even know what to tell her to look for. Just a simple home cook, lots of meat moves through the smoker, spatchcocked some birds, etc. any advice would be appreciated.

[Lance O'Connor @ronnocol]

@ChefGruel Or… an immersion circulator and sous vide that chicken breast to the right temp every time. That being said, the @fireboardlabs spark is awesome.

[Lance O'Connor @ronnocol]

@ChefGruel If I wanted to adapt a recipe that said to cook a spatchcocked chicken for 40 minutes at 400° to take an hour (I’m going to pick folks up, it’ll take an hour) what do I cook it at so it’s done (but still nice and juicy) when I get home?

@fireboardlabs I think this probe is bad… or I moved to Venus.

@NBSaphierMD When I was coaching, if we had a game on Mother’s Day, I would always go before the game and get flowers for the moms and have the kids hand them out before the game.

@LawrenceBJones3 next time you're on @OutnumberedFNC, can you bring Nala with you on camera?

Hey @dog_rates, you should either avoid talking about digging graves on International Holocaust Remembrance Day, or fully commit to it and use a German Shepherd.

Hey @SunnyvaleDPS , the vehicles driving without their lights on has gone too far. Now the city bus doesn’t even have their lights in. It’s ridiculous.

[Lance O'Connor @ronnocol]

@LaurenGruel Hey @LaurenGruel and @ChefGruel, for those of us that aren’t close, can we buy a Calico fish house gift card as a way to donate? Or something?

[Lance O'Connor @ronnocol]

Hey @chrispavlovski , if I take the tender offer for my $RUM stock, do I get a lifetime premium account?

[Lance O'Connor @ronnocol]

@ChefGruel thoughts on chunking up some “Beef inside skirts - American waygu” for this years Halloween crock pot chili? Usually I use “prime beef chunks for stew”, or sometimes prime short ribs. But this is what Costco had for me today. They came as 4 ~15” long strips.

[Lance O'Connor @ronnocol]

@meathead @ChefGruel I know. I have read your book (looking forward to the new one!) I’ve read many parts of your site, I just don’t understand why chefs continue to advocate for resting meat.

[Lance O'Connor @ronnocol]

@ChefGruel @ShadowbrookCap @Gutfeldfox Sadly they don’t do tasting menus… one day we’ll come down to @ChefGruel’s place. Maybe for our 26th anniversary, I have a year to plan it.

[Lance O'Connor @ronnocol]

@ChefGruel I’m celebrating my 25th anniversary in a couple of weeks. I made reservations at the restaurant I proposed at (@ShadowbrookCap ) is it unreasonable for me to call and ask for a tasting menu or something special?

[Lance O'Connor @ronnocol]

@ChefGruel @ShadowbrookCap Thanks, I didn’t know if special requests annoy chefs. We’re looking forward to making it down to your place one day. Until then, we’ll keep watching your post/videos and you on @Gutfeldfox

Hey @Jolly_Pets got anything to stand up to my dog (that’s not hard plastic… she won’t play with hard plastic ¯\_(ツ)_/¯)? These balls lasted less than 48 hours.
