Recruiting Forum Football Talk II

[zhangliao04]

Guys! My wife and I are moving back to Knoxville soon!!!!

 

[bignewt]

A friend of mine had that battle too. He was able to drive his focus by hiking the entire Appalachian trail. Hes had alot of fellow marines succumb to it though. My thoughts and prayers are with your friends family.

These BS "wars" taking our bravest.

Charger, are you a candidate for the Whipple procedure?

Somewhat. I know that's not much help but the best candidates are either only the head or tail. My entire pancreas is covered, which slowly kills the tissue.

So, whipple might provide some relief..or not. Either way, the rest stays and will inevitably regrow over any part they remove.

Fairly big procedure for "maybe..for a little while".

Not to mention guerrilla style.

Great twitter follow if you are a movie buff

Got any pointers for an amateur?

I second this. My in-laws gave us half of a beef and we got a brisket and I’ve never cooked one. My MIL always cooks hers in a bag in the oven and i want to smoke it but have never done it. My wife doesn’t like how her mom does it and I want to try something else.

cook low at about 220 or so. When the stall hits wrap in peach butcher paper until probe tender above 200 degrees. Do not use foil on a brisket. I dont get crazy on brisket rub because I love the taste of beef. Salt,Pepper, and Garlic is about all I put on a brisket. Get a good quality piece of wood to smoke with. Whatever your flavor of choice is. I usually mix a little cherry and pecan together for brisket. Rest brisket for few hours and slice against the grain.

why no foil? Are you allergic? Also mine never stalls. Just goes right on through to the other side.

Boooo stay in Charlotte!

Actually if I had a wife, I'd heavily consider that move. Terrible town for singles though.

I feel the same about George R. R. Martin.

I never understood the difference in a great writer vs a great storyteller till him.

 

[Bassmaster_Vol]

brah, you don't live in Tennessee. I did 15 years hard time in Texas and one of the few things I learned and mastered was brisket. Get that ish out of my key.

That Texas prison brisket is something

Some people have medical conditions that require them to be on pain medicine for the rest of their lives and that's unfortunate. The key is finding the right meds and the lowest dosage possible that provides comfort. This leaves the person with options if they develop a tolerance or the pain worsens.

Some addicts can recover without meds if they have the will power and desire to do it. Some have altered their brain chemistry to the point that they need help and there are options available.

None of these people should be looked down on. All three situations are medical conditions.

Yeah, I don't want to be taken as saying anything about people in that situation, I can't even relate.

Not sure why it produces so many different results. For me, I feel nothing from any of them, except pain relief. And every couple of months, I'll have an entire week with no major pain, otc work and I don't even take the prescription meds.
There's no cravings or changes in mood when I don't take them. I don't want people that are different than me to suffer but there seems to be a complete lack of that feeling being reciprocated.

Unfortunately, there's a lot of "I had a cousin who got addicted, so IDC about everyone it helps".

Kansas City BBQ is better than Memphis BBQ...change my mind.

 

[nicksjuzunk]

My wife started streaming Riverdale last night. I am embarrassed to say it kinda sucked me in and I am now in it to the finish.

I watched one episode and needed to back away.

Doing that commute I did in DFW every day was worse than prison.

 

[all_volz]

Where should I eat bbq at in Memphis next week. Specifically ribs or brisket.

Central or rendezvous

Big Newt thinks Texas smoke is superior to any other smoke apparently and no one outside the border can get it right because we are all playing with the same ingredients, right?

foil after the cook is fine. I dont like the bark texture I get from foiled brisket. It kinda steams it. The butcher paper allows the meat to breathe which gives off a incredible bark.

Got that job in Maryville?

 

[all_volz]

I rub against your leg when you pet me I'm not so bad

Sounds like something Joe Biden would say.

 

[tnhunter 10]

I really want some bbq now. Thanks everyone.

 

[tnhunter 10]

Haven’t posted a lot recently. Just wanted to ask prayers for an Army buddy. He lost his battle with PTSD last week and his family is laying him to rest today. Been a wreck all week about it.

So sorry to hear this. I've seen this first hand and it's tough. Prayers.

Makes sense, I don't foil till I take it off.

regional cuisine...you should know.

The original Salt Lick in driftwood TX is the best family style BBQ place there is...

I think we all know people that became addicted that did not think they would and didn't want to be. But the problem has come with people thinking they need to decide what is best for someone else. As McGill said an addict will find a way... even if it is making something in the kitchen. Now doctors can't even decide what is best for their patients. A friend's husband was sent home 3 days after having both kidneys taken out with instructions to take Tylenol every 4 hours.
