This was probably the first time I followed a recipe exactly. I usually tweak things, but not this time. Turned out really good.

Looks delicious

A week from tomorrow the new Gordon Ramsay show premieres on the National Geographic channel. It called Gordon Ramsay Uncharted. Looks interesting.

Really?

Anyone else weird enough to make chili in the summer?

Yeth

a bunch of cops show up just for a shoplifter anymore

Ha, not around here, I’m afraid. Their cars all seem auto-programmed to go to the 3-4 housing projects.

Nosey!!

Well, if three police cruisers park in front of your house when you’re out on your front porch trying to escape the heat, and the uniformed occupants head ever-so-quietly to the house across the street, it does rather catch your attention.

A mystery. There was an ambulance parked behind a hedge that I didn’t see. They eventually carried out what looked like one of the tenants on the stretcher and drove off. The three officers lounged around in front of our house, chatting.

My guess would have been a Narcan (OD) run, but why three police? There used to be a beautiful old house down the street being used illegally as a halfway house, and there were a couple of Narcan runs, but they were strictly fire dept responses with some poor guy in full turn-out gear trudging to the house with his kit bag. (We finally got the city to take action on that and evict them. Awesome idea to have a halfway house a block from Haywood Rd, the equivalent of The Strip.)

Strictly wild-hare guess: police responded to a disturbance call, someone was tased or something, and EMS (not fire dept) was then called? I dunno.

It’s too damn hot for excitement.

Yikes

You’re gonna get Behr all hot again.

Chili sucks. It ain't chili if it's got chicken in it. Lol, WTF?

@Souce was dead on. Your food advice is chit. It’s just mayo this and cinnamon that. I think chili must be delicacy if that’s your opinion.

Looks like a buncha raw meat with a shrimp tail sticking out.

Seriously undercooked for starters.

I agree, my advice is chit, but my opinion is spot on!

Soundtrack to What Women Want is one of my favorites. Grown Ups is another.

I like that crust that he got on them. I still haven’t pulled that off. Mine seem, well, blackened compared to his.

Learning to sear sea scallops is a painfully expensive lesson!

Actually a stab in the dark for me on my comment. I really wouldn’t know. I’ve only had them once, in Virginia Beach.

Lulz.

Goodnight Martha's.

Really?

Yes. He travels around the world. They make it sound like he does crazy things while also experiencing local cuisine. Looks interesting. I'll at least watch the first episode. It's on the National Geographic channel though, not regular networks.

Thanks, hadn’t seen anything advertised. Will look for it.

I tried ground bison as a burger once, wasn’t something I cared for. Fresh ground beef from a farm, love that.

Seriously, was it the texture fo you? It does feel s bit different.
