    FOOD REVIEW!

    Burman's BBQ Sauce (Memphis Style)

    Y'all know I usually make my own, home made barbecue sauce. But I saw this at Aldi the other day. I wondered whether they could get Memphis style right. So I bought a bottle.

    They got it right! Have I had better? Yes, of course. And I've made better myself. For a bottled barbecue (excuse me, BBQ) sauce, this is quite good!

    Rich and thick, with a good, sweet (but not TOO sweet) flavor, and just enough vinegar to offset the sweet without making it sour. I prefer spicy hot along with the sweet, but wasn't surprised that this one wasn't spicy.

    For a bottled BBQ sauce, I'll give it 4 out of 5!

    I may go and see if they have any more. and see what other style(s) they might have. I served it on tenderized pork chops, with field peas and snaps.

    Hi
    I'm back home from walking and not a single solitary cent was found. The Temperature out the door was 39 Degrees.
    The rain in the forecast for Friday night into Saturday followed by Rain Sunday night into Monday. Has changed and it now appears that the rain previously forecast for Friday will be a no show.

    This is one I would likely Buy for the same reason that You likley would not buy it again after giving it 4 out of 5, The Spicy Hot is not to my taste.

    The Chops look tasty. The local ShopRite has Memphis style Ribs in their Hot foods section some of the time. Usually very tender, fall off the bone and tasty. If they were Spicy Hot one try would have been enough, however they are not hot and I do buy them some of the time.

    Have a Good Day

    Just curious what it is that You shouldn't be eating if I am not being to curious.
    Those Vegan Eggs from the Happy Pear looked a bit to yellow and when did You ever see scrambled eggs that were in cube shape ?

I know I could have done it in the Windows Paint program and then cropped the image, saved it and then put it into the post.

    BTW If You thought that Your desktop was cluttered, You should see mine, I really need to go through the shortcuts and do a drastic cleanup. I'm sure when I look at them closely I will find that I will be wondering why I did some of them.

    Howdy all y'all! It's thrilling Thursday!

    It's supposed to be another pretty nice day, albeit a bit warmer than I like for April. I might desert the cats for a while today and visit with a friend. And maybe a little bit of shopping.

    We've had cats for almost a quarter of a century. The first one was long haired. I've always had to de-fur the beater brush occasionally.

    Good Morning!
    I got sucked into reading the Costco thing, which goes on and on and yep, and on! Interesting read. Costco no worse than Sam's or Target or Walmart I suspect??

    Clothes drying, and heading to the gym just as soon as I type the usual Lat___... )
    :)

    Sunny morning, lot of chores indoors that need to be done...but most likely after gym I will do a bit of yard work...rain tomorrow= chore day. Also a mid morning trip to see Bone Doc. Since even the evening achy has disappeared I am expecting a good report, and hopefully a medical release...ok?

    All my food for today is already cooked, even the oatmeal I just finished. (I accidentally made a double batch yesterday. ) The rest came from Whole Foods Hot bar.

    Oh, and for the curious...my one item from Trader Joes yesterday was for their Pound Plus Dark Belgium Chocolate bar....which I should not eat. But, do eat on occasion.

    I will get to the rest of the vid's and articles later...right now the dryer is buzzing, and I'm getting dressed and heading out!!

    And today after gym went to Publix, and I saw JUST EGG!! THe vegan egg substitute made from plants...looks and tastes like eggs, or so I've read. The price wasn't on the shelf, but I bought a bottle anyway...I paid, I found out, when I got home, $7.99 for it. Expensive 'trial'!!! BUT...it supposedly makes good omelets which would be nice, etc. So as a very occasional splurge...

    Now, heading to the kitchen to heat up my lunch.

    The rain in the forecast is for Friday night into Saturday followed by Rain Sunday night into Monday. That has changed once again back to what they forecasting earlier in the week.

    Today is looking OK with the clouds supposed to move out later, then this evening the rain is forecast to move in around 7 PM through Mid Morning Saturday :(

    I think the cats will survive being deserted for part of the day. I had wondered about that, do short haired cats cause the same problem or ?

    If I said I hate those endless click for next articles, However I did click on and found it interesting. The Only rational for those is to garner advertising revenue as I see it.
    Supposedly CostCo is a decent place to work from what I have seen online.

    Rain for parts of the day for Today through Monday :(

    My brother is itching to get out and run the Rototiller through the garden, That is not to be as the ground is still wet and unlikely to dry out for the duration of the 7 day weather forecast.

    I was curious :smiley:

    healthy or tasty, That depends on Your priorities.
    $7.99 for a Vegan Egg Substitute, I hope the Bottle (?) was huge for that price. I tend to not buy if there is no price shown on the shelf unless I am really interested in it, them I go to the courtesy counter for a price check.

    I hope it does make a good Omelet, Just curious would that be a Vegetable Omelet or one with Vegan Cheese ? I know which way I would go, Vegetables in a Omelet, Not interested, A nice Cheese Omelet with American or Cheddar Cheese OTOH.

    Have a Nice Day

    Welllll, yesterday it was morning....today? Nope!
    Saw the bone guy! Healing nicely, says he can see new bone growing over the fracture. But, he does want to see me one more time. :) He also said that I didn't have to wear the ace bandage wrap, unless my leg bothered me. SO, thinking I'll wear to gym, maybe for long shopping days, and outside because the lawn is not 'flat'... but glad I can wear it 'as needed' now forward! So, on way from the doc's I stopped at the gym, and then picked up banana's and a nice avocado to go with that omelet tomorrow. Lunch, and a nice nap..

    Roger, I understand your brother wanting to get the gardening started! That was me! I remember planting peas one year in Virginia in JANUARY!! That was a first even for me. But the guys at the seed place swore that if I could get into the garden... and they were right. Those early early peas were so sweet..and when the vines were ready to be pulled, it was time to set the tomatoes in their place. So, that worked well!!
    I was thinking I'd put onions and peppers in the omelet Sunday morning, and some grated cheese on top...how's that sound? :) I bought the 'Just Egg' because I have the company's other products and they are good...the major ingredient is Mung bean sprouts.... is egg colored. Vegan cheeses that I use are Follow Your Heart brand. I think we've talked about them before...they are all tasty, and they melt like 'real' cheese.

    Never did rain today on my end of the county Ed. Hope you were that lucky too. I hate having to deal with groceries and rain. Groceries are bad enough!

    Ok, after a long delay to mollify a very vocal cat I'm back to say

    Hi
    I'm home and feeling tired and taking into consideration the weather I did not go walking and Therefore not a single solitary cent was found. The Temperature outside is 62 Degrees. The rain in the forecast is for Friday night into Saturday has happened and currently the rain has ceased a short while ago, however the 6AM Weather Radar shows that there is more rain to the west moving this way.

    A question if I may, My brother is complaining about the price of Canned Butter Beans, So I was wondering what they cost elsewhere if I am not imposing.

    Millennials talking? Strange things happen at the Masters where cell phones are banned

    Is this true or false I do not know, nice story OTOH.

    The Phrase "Man's Best Friend" originated in a court of law. Back in October 28, 1869, A man's dog (named old drum), was shot to death by a neighbor. Animals had no rights back in those days, but the man wanted justice and so he hired 3 lawyers to sue the man who shot his dog. One of these lawyers, named George Graham Vest, is given credit for originally coining the phrase "Man's Best Friend" during his final summation to the jury. By the time he was finished with his speech, the jury only took 2 minutes to reach a verdict. The jury awarded the victim $5 (a very large amount of money back then). The jury also wanted the man to be sent to prison, but there were no laws governing this type of incident back then so the judge was not able to honor the jury's request for prison time.

    This is a record of the final summation given by the lawyer...

    Gentlemen of the Jury

    The best friend a man has in this world may turn against him and become his enemy. His son and daughter that he had reared with loving care may become ungrateful. Those who are nearest and dearest to us, those whom we trust with our happiness and our good name, may become traitors to their faith. The money that a man has, he may lose. It flies away from him when he may need it most. Man's reputation may be sacrificed in a moment of ill considered action. The people who are prone to fall on their knees and do us honor when success is with us may be the first to throw the stone of malice when failure settles its cloud upon our head. The only absolutely unselfish friend a man may have in this selfish world, the one that never deserts him, the one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous is his dog.

    A man's dog stands by him in prosperity and poverty, in health and sickness. He will sleep on the cold ground, when the wintry winds blow and the snow drives fiercely, if only he can be near his master's side. He will kiss the hand that has no food to offer, he will lick the wounds and sores that come in encounter with the roughness of the world. He guards the sleep of a pauper as if he were a prince. When all other friends desert... he remains.

    When riches take wings and reputations fall to pieces, he is as constant in his love as the sun in its journey through the heavens. If fortune drives the master forth an outcast into the world, friendless and homeless, the faithful dog asks no higher privilege than that of accompanying him to guard him against danger, to fight against his enemies, and when the last scene of all comes, and death takes his master in its embrace and his body is laid away in the cold ground, no matter if all other friends pursue their way, there by his grave side will the noble dog be found, his head between his paws and his eyes sad, but open in alert watchfulness, faithful and true even to death.


    Have a Nice Saturday

    Howdy all y'all. It's fantastic Friday! 40% chance of rain, and about as warm as yesterday. I might get out to Ingle's for a few groceries.
    Good Morning Ed
    I just reheated the left over coffee from yesterdays walk which was leftover from the day before :smiley: I did add a spoonful of instant Coffee to have enough for the day OTOH.

    100% chance of Rain here for Today since it has been raining from around 8PM Friday I am going with Friday was 100% too.
    I didn't know that she is vegan! Tasty sounding vegan Passover recipes!

    Cooking with Mayim: Passover Edition || Mayim Bialik
    Why Not, I might try the Vegan Lasagna made using Matzohs since I could get a case of six boxes for free with the Coupon at the ShopRite, I would of course likley use Real Ricotta and Mozzarella since I am not trying to eat Vegan. And Those cheeses should add nutrition ? Toss in the $1 off coupon for any variety of Manischewitz® Matzo Ball Mix. If I liked Matzo ball soup I might be interested in the coupon or to just turn the Matzohs in Matzo meal for Matzo Balls.
    Having Tried Matzo ball soup at the diner as a change of pace since it was included in the Meal as one of the choices, I will say I found it not that tasty.
    BBQ on a Budget - Barbecue Doesn't Have To Be Expensive - The Wolfe Pit
    Overall I like the Wolfe Pit videos unlike someone here. However I do not call how to make burnt ends out of 2 chuck roasts I found on sale for less than $9! Inexpensive...
    It looks tasty, I just think the price is a bit high.
    People Who Unsuccessfully Tried To Scam Fast Food Restaurants
    No surprise to me, Having been behind the scenes at a fast food chain dealing with crew, managers and franchise owners as well as corporate owned stores. They all had at least one counterfeit bill on the office wall as examples of what to watch out for. Usually those happened at the lunch rush. BTW I was thinking that the Preview image looked like a McDs Quarter Pounder, I may know more when I view the video.
    A Chill What I Eat in a Day (Vegan, Gluten-Free, Mostly Healthy)
    I have to say that the food does not look inviting to me :(

    Looks Interesting, I'll know later.

    I am still trying to wake up too, so far the coffee is not doing it's job :(

    As Always Thank You for the interesting Videos

    Welllll, yesterday it was morning....today? Nope!
    Saw the bone guy! Healing nicely, says he can see new bone growing over the fracture. But, he does want to see me one more time. :) He also said that I didn't have to wear the ace bandage wrap, unless my leg bothered me. SO, thinking I'll wear to gym, maybe for long shopping days, and outside because the lawn is not 'flat'... but glad I can wear it 'as needed' now forward! So, on way from the doc's I stopped at the gym, and then picked up banana's and a nice avocado to go with that omelet tomorrow. Lunch, and a nice nap..
    Hello Valerie
    You are just saying it isn't morning since You posted in the evening :wink:

    When I hurt my knee one year I was never able to keep the ace bandage, it always came loose, Unwrapped itself. So as a Cure I bought a elastic Knee bandage in the proper size and pulled it on while dressing and that was quicker and solved the problem. Wearing the bandage to the gym sounds like a reasonable preventive measure to me.

    They mentioned that Millennials and newer are eating a lot of Avocado Toast on the TV news yesterday. My brother who knew not what that was asked how do they keep the toaster clean when they put the avocado slices in it to toast them. I had to explain what it is too him, Sometimes he has weird holes in his food knowledge.
    Roger, I understand your brother wanting to get the gardening started! That was me! I remember planting peas one year in Virginia in JANUARY!! That was a first even for me. But the guys at the seed place swore that if I could get into the garden... and they were right. Those early early peas were so sweet..and when the vines were ready to be pulled, it was time to set the tomatoes in their place. So, that worked well!!
    I was thinking I'd put onions and peppers in the omelet Sunday morning, and some grated cheese on top...how's that sound? :) I bought the 'Just Egg' because I have the company's other products and they are good...the major ingredient is Mung bean sprouts.... is egg colored. Vegan cheeses that I use are Follow Your Heart brand. I think we've talked about them before...they are all tasty, and they melt like 'real' cheese.

    Never did rain today on my end of the county Ed. Hope you were that lucky too. I hate having to deal with groceries and rain. Groceries are bad enough!

    Ok, after a long delay to mollify a very vocal cat I'm back to say

    Later...
    I am thinking it might be safe to plant the Dahlias now and I am sure that the Gladiolus would be safe. Now if the ground would just dry out enough to be dug.

    If the Vegan Cheese couldn't melt it would be useless IMO. Just Curious do You ever make French Toast or Grilled Cheese using Vegan ingredients ?
    When I do a Grilled Cheese I melt butter in the Skillet and then put a heavy pot on top to get the proper finish on the sandwich.

    Have a Good Weekend
