For the 4th straight year, I will be boycotting the Super Bowl. Kap still ain’t back in the league.

Plus, if I see LaFluer’s BFF, that Fred Fucking Flintstone-looking D-Coordinator for the 69ers - Selleck, Sayid, Saleh, whatever - one more time on the tube, I swear Imma puke. I mean, the dude’s so pale, yet he still got interviewed as a Rooney Rule candidate. I’m baffled as fuck.

There are so many phenomena in this world I ain’t understand. And what I ain’t understand baffles me. Y’all dig me?

what if you knew Kaep was paid to do what he did and he was in fact the clue the Niners would be in this super bowl in the first place?

Anyone else hear that noise last night?

I take my hearing aids out at night.

[scharpcheddar]

The sound of Packers fans crying because they live vicariously through jocks catching balls?

[scharpcheddar]

27

Your mind will be blown on super sunday

[scharpcheddar]

The total will go under. They will cancel each other out.
Mahomes is 24. Jimmy G. Is 28 and learned from going to two SBS with Brady. The younger QB has lost a majority of the time.
Shanahan proved vs GB, he won't let the game get out of hand like when he was on atL in SB 51.
Mvp, either Deebo, or Bosa

[MadtownPacker]

The sound of Packers fans crying because they live vicariously through jocks catching balls?Damn Sharpie you hittin hard! But might be in to something.

Question what kind of score we looking at? Curious if my SB squares will win.

The NFL notices and is quite concerned.

More importantly, Kyle Shanahan looks like Harry Dean Stanton's lost Love-Child.

No.

[scharpcheddar]

You got it half right.

I got that futures bet for 20k riding on Sharps guarantee. Mad, can it get his address so I can collect if he is wrong.

Nope. Still more nonsense.

I'll say, thursday or Friday.
expect this game go /under the total. Not too much better than last year.

[MadtownPacker]

He said we have to wait until Friday for the score. He has two thumbs, one for you and one for me if he sinks us.

[MadtownPacker]

See that is a big problem cuz last years snorefest didn’t give much movement numbers wise. Just tell me there will be a safety at some point so I can have hope.

Probably not.

[QBME]

Big pot of chili.
Shredded cheddar, onions and a dallop of sour cream.

Big pot of chili.
Shredded cheddar, onions and a dallop of sour cream.

For a pot that big, wouldn't you want two dollops of sour cream?

[QBME]

For a pot that big, wouldn't you want two dollops of sour cream?

Sorry, should have been more specific.
The cheese, onions and sour cream are per serving.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Think I'm going with a buffalo chicken pastry ring, bacon wrapped, cream cheese filled jalepeno poppers and some pigs in a blanket.

[MadtownPacker]

Smoked pork shoulder. About 7-8 hours in the offset smoker. Gonna use pistachio wood for the first time. Usually use pecan. I’ll infuse it with garlic and some spices. It just about falls apart when done.

Sounds Excellent Mad...I'm Reverse searing some Ribeyes...Smoke until 110* Then hit them on a Screaming hot Charcoal Grill 2 minutes a Side...I'll smoke up some Buffalo Wings for Pre-Game Snackin.

[Anti-Polar Bear]

So who's making what for the game?

Nothing.

Finish graveyard shift at 7 AM. Heat up a frozen meal. Wash it down with a Miller Lite. Enter the Matrix while downloading aphrodisiac vids at the same time. If peak prematurely, catch up on a little Shameless or Law and Order: SVU. Even though currently off from the burger joint on Sundays, bedtime at 3PM.

I ain't gonna watch another Super Bowl live 'til Kap returns to the NFL, or the Packers play in the fucking game.

[ThunderDan]

Not going to watch the game.

Heading over to Potawatomi to play in the WSOP Circuit event that day.

[MadtownPacker]

Is it similar to what the steakhouses do with the steak in a bag in hot water? You bringing it to temperature then making it pretty with the high heat.

It's the same principle as slow cooking ribs. I've done this with steaks for quite a while, it works fantastic. It does take a bit more time than the traditional way, but I find the results better.

Me too. I was given a sous vide cooker 2 years ago. Bring steaks to just below desired temp, then throw in a very hot grill, or cast iron pan on the stove. They turn out great. The best thing is you can hold the steaks a long time in the sous vide bath without over cooking. When everything and everyone is ready, it takes only a couple minutes to finish the steaks. Also great for steaks that are inconsistently cut or thinner than preferred. No overcooking.

My new go-to, winter rib prep is cooking the ribs with rub and sauce in an Instant Pot pressure cooker for about 30 minutes, then onto a very hot grill or under the broiler to caramelize the outside.

How do the instant pot ribs compare to sous vide? When I use sous vide for ribs the bones were falling out when I took them out of the bag, and the flavor was fantastic. However it did take 20-24 hours instead of 30 minutes.

Same with the Instant Pot. Most of the bones fall right out. Some purist say the bones should require some tug to come out. That isn't the case with this process. Most of the bones fall out clean, with no resistance.

I have used this with all types of ribs, baby back, spare ribs, St. Louis cut, beef short ribs and back ribs. All end up the same, falling off the bones. The beef ribs I prefer to sear first, then pressure cook. Pork I caramelize after pressure cooking. Bone in beef ribs usually need about 10 minutes more in the pressure cooker.

I want to experiment a little with the length of natural pressure release after cooking. I've used what recipes suggest, 10 minutes natural before manual immediate of the remaining pressure. I'm a real novice with the pressure cooker, but have read that immediate release for meat dishes can retain some of the "chewIness" some prefer.

Side note - the pressure cooker is fantastic for cheesecakes!

Great. Now I need to buy a sous vide cooker thingy.

I am going to have to try your way out cuz I like the smoke flavor to sink into the meat.

Patler - I’m guessing the sous thing leaves them very tender. Do you add any seasoning during that process and does the smoky flavor get to the middle of the carne?

[MadtownPacker]

Great. Now I need to buy a sous vide cooker thingy.

Maybe sous vide the effer.

WHAT?!?!

I ain’t give fucks ‘bout you roasting dogs. It’s natural for the superior species to consume the inferior species. Think Doggy’s Wolfie ancestors gave fucks when the Wolfies were hunting and consuming less sophisticated Homo sapiens with the IQ of Tony O’Day?

First, Rasta is white. Now you’re Korean? (which side?) What’s next, Harlan’s Iranian and Prof Rand is Italian? What kind of world do you want it to be?

[mraynrand]

no shit. losers would scoff at nesco set on 'low'

compelling. Chiefs scoring less than Packers would indeed be shocking result.

[mraynrand]

The poll is closed, but I predict a niners win. Would love Chiefs to win, if only to upset the 'defense wins championships' mantra. Also prefer whatever result gets Andy Reid on a treadmill.

[Cheesehead Craig]

Chefs win by 10. Mahommes gets his own muppet designed after him.
