When I make it for the fam, I used ground meat but that is so they can have leftovers while I am traveling.

I need to get back in to cooking more.  The desire is there, just the time is not.

Stefan two and a half shakes a day and you don't need anything else.  Lol

Pretty much.

 

I've actually been getting 1.34lb packets of 85% lean 15% fat ground beef from Costco, half gallon of lactose free whole milk, pre wo shake, post wo shake, dinner with veggies, and I'm finally up where I need to be.

 

Eating that much ground beef every other day perhaps isn't the best idea, but it's working for a few weeks until I rotate to something else.

If you made your own chile powder and used that I am fine, but chili powder no fucking way.  I thought you guys were from Texas?

guess what Sean, I ate Hormel Chili yesterday and was happy with it. your just to picky. I bet you have a herb garden in your basement in the winter so you always have the freshest herbs.

Matt, or anyone else interested, have you ever heard of NutriTiming https://nutritiming.com/

 

It was made by some doctor. Input height, weight, age, etc. Comes up with a resting energy expenditure. Input what you ate for the day, and at what times, and what physical activity. Then it shows for each hour if you're in a caloric deficit or surplus. Supposedly it's common use with fancy athletes, or big people as you can see where they aren't eating enough, or eating too much.

 

Anyway I messed with it just for kicks, and won't be using it, so now I have 30 days left on my account until it expires. Anyone want it?

 

Basically if you already know your BMR/RMR/REE, track what you eat already, and know how to use MET tables then it's nothing revolutionary.

It's suppose to snow later today. We'll see if it beats two weeks ago's snow.

This is Sean's basement:

 

Storm predicted for tomorrow afternoon-thursday snow amounts from 12-24" here predicted and of course people are getting bent out of shape.  I can remember multiple times they forcasted snows like this, but not one that came true, snow and ice sure, but I don't remember anything over about 10" in the last 15 years.  

We were supposed to get 8-12" on Saturday and got 1/3"

 

 

Last night I went for a rip and started to overheat since there isn't enough snow in some of the ditches

Now forecasted for 14-20" of snow depending on who you look at.

Looks like a trip to Sean's house is in order.

Cheech & Sean?

His house is going to be raided now. 3...2....1....

 

govt have no sense of humor.

I also like my chili fresh which means no ground meat.  Steak is where it is at, but then reheating is not so great.  

 

I like to use tough pieces of cow and let it simmer. Marrow bones too if I can find 'em. Basically chunks of spiced meat in broth. So good.

 

 

Ever since I mowed grass for a job I've hated it with a deep, burning passion

My lawn is 5 acres. I make the ole lady cut it.

On a tractor I hope.

Bought her a little 40 horse New Holland Cab tractor with a 72 inch finish mower. She don't mind it being she can stay clean and crank the a/c up. The other 135 acres are either planted with veggies or cut for hay.

Nice!

Sure would be hard with all the good places to eat in your area.

Todd and I have been keeping the spammers under control.

Chili powder = powdered chiles, salt, cumin, garlic, paprika; everything I already put in my chili

Predetermined mixes of spices are not spices and should never be used for anything.  Your own mix is viable, but if it isn't made fresh the day of use it is pretty much garbage.

 

 

Any and all premixed spice thingee's are ridiculous.  Read the ingredients, mix your own.  Most whole spices needed to be toasted a bit before use as well and start to fail miserably hours after toasting.  If you want to learn how to utilize spices learn to cook Indian food.  Even if they use flavors you don't like the techniques are golden.

 

Forgot how easy it is to rile you up when it comes to seasonings Obviously I "roll my own", just saying that the spice blend in my chili uses (almost) all the same ingredients as store bought chili powder, so technically yes chili powder does belong in chili. Technically.

You mean Turd.

Stefan, are you using natural PB? It tastes better and will actually mix with other ingredients unlike the processed shit.

The chili powder I got is mixed at the store I bought it. I actually thought I was buying a chili pepper powder. Finding fresh peppers is not quite possible now but maybe in the future. I still do my own cumin (when not in a pinch).

This is true.

The Cross Street Market would be enough for a couple months.
