What are you eating?

Allegedly the 2 Fiestas on 35 in Austin carry them. Next time my brother’s coming up here I’ll tell him to bring some.

eta: now I need my coonass buddy to bring me some boudin from Billy’s

The only time Kara and I eat hot dogs anymore are Memorial Day and July 4. Well, not this past Memorial Day because we were imbibing at the Bottlerock music festival here in Napa with my unloved brother. I digress. Johnsonville beef brats are what we pick up for these occasions. Think they’re readily available most anywhere and a decent enough hot dog that you won’t hate yourself for eating a grocery store hot dog.

Not sure I’ve had their beef brats, but my stomach has a strong disagreement with their pork products.

Was just browsing HEB website, Boar’s Head makes a beef frank that looks promising, so does HEB’s store brand.

I was reading reviews online and this seems to be the best hotdog in America…anyone tried them?

We have grandchildren, so we sometimes have hot dogs. I like the HEB all-beef dogs.

Went in to San Antonio today and had the trios enchilada plate at The Blanco Cafe for lunch, then went and bought a new fedora at Paris Hatters.

Shit, that’s a proper day

OutSTANDing.

That is a great and well-deserved day!

My Uncle Bill used to do the radio ads for Paris Hats. The last time I was there they had his picture on the wall.

I’m in a fishing lodge in Dutch John, Utah. I’m the only male in the room without his cap on. HH needs to straighten these people out. I hope you don’t plan to wear that fedora inside.

We drove up through Flaming Gorge last spring (‘23) on our way to Montana, and it was stunning.

We drove from Durango through north Arizona and up through Utah. I don’t know how anybody who grows up out here doesn’t end up as a geologist.

One of my favorite things about Utah was the road signs that would tell you which formation you were entering and a few salient points about it.

I’m assuming the fishing lodge is a private space? If so, then dope slap them for me, please.

From Google Maps, it appears to be a little island of habitation on a small butte. Surrounded by nothing but nature.

Today it’s a turkey breast and a bologne chub while I reheat some chili for a snack. This is what happens when I decide I want a sandwich…

Later I’ll crank the heat up and put on some lamb chops I have marinating for dinner.

A stupidly great grilling experience is soaking a summer sausage in cheap scotch for a day or so and then slicing and grilling it.

Nice! The bologna is rubbed with a honey chipotle rub and the turkey with spg, then I’ll wrap ithe turkey with 1.7 heart attacks worth of butter and let it finish.

“honey rubbed bologna” is what now?

Just fancy-ing up some bologna. I make a sandwich with the bologna, hot links, onion rings, and pickles.

Please let me know if this is too much bbq porn…

You can see how the bologna gets a caramelized bark. It’s fucking delicious.
