06.11.10 | I know there are a bunch of different variations on BBQ, but these are the big 5. |
BigHans
06.11.10 | Almost as good as my grilling meats ranked list. |
BigHans
06.11.10 | Carolinas is good but its last for me simply because its almost all pork and Im not a fan of vinegar based sauces. |
Inveigh
06.11.10 | excellent list, but in my experience TN-bbq is pretty vinegar based, which is always what I liked about it. Mustard is what I think of for Carolina, but that's definitely my favorite region for bbq (Southeast, being that's where I lived from the time I was born until age 13). |
buckfutter
06.11.10 | Well, if you think 2-5 are the better than 1, you honestly haven't tried real texas brisket |
BigHans
06.11.10 | Number 1 is correct. Good brisket doesnt need sauce. |
AngelofDeath
06.11.10 | Almost. |
BigHans
06.11.10 | Angel of Death is here to drop some wisdom on us, dude is a certified chef. |
buckfutter
06.11.10 | Hans- You forget I went to culinary school for a year lol |
Maniac!
06.11.10 | fuck you 2 > 1 |
BigHans
06.11.10 | I go to the culinary school of The Food Network. |
buckfutter
06.11.10 | Yeah, I've continued my edumacation from Food Network |
BigHans
06.11.10 | And 10+ years of restaurant experience. |
AngelofDeath
06.11.10 | Aint much wisdom to drop here lol. Can't say I have any quarrels with Pit's list. |
Inveigh
06.11.10 | I sauted for 3 years and live with one of the best cooks I've ever known, which in turn means I'm watching a lot of Alton Brown and various other TFN shows |
buckfutter
06.11.10 | That real brisket you find in central Texas(even though I've never personally been there, just had it shipped to me) is fucking unbelievable |
buckfutter
06.11.10 | That's my next list: Food Network chefs Ranked |
Inveigh
06.11.10 | if Rachel Ray cooked naked it'd be no contest |
Maniac!
06.11.10 | Alton Brown is the MAN... |
buckfutter
06.11.10 | She got some tig ol bitties |
Maniac!
06.11.10 | nick, if you dont make Alton brown #1....I will make you pay. |
buckfutter
06.11.10 | Actually, Alton Brown would be my number 2. Tyler Florence is my number 1 |
AngelofDeath
06.11.10 | Texas brisket is off the rip, no doubt. Best thing I've had on the barbie though, is a slow-smoked pork butt me and a buddy did a couple years back. Nothin like that crust of fat and spices. |
Maniac!
06.11.10 | .......................................
You are dead to me. |
buckfutter
06.11.10 | If you actually ignore some of Tyler's acting on TV and just pay attention to the food, the guy is fucking amazing. I've made several of his recipes, and I am nowhere near disappointed with any of them. |
Maniac!
06.11.10 | Yeah but Alton is more entertaining to watch. And smarter.
anyway, shutup. dead men dont talk. |
AngelofDeath
06.11.10 | And Rachel Ray belongs in oven along with her shitty food. |
buckfutter
06.11.10 | This dead man can talk, and will haunt everyone's dreams forever.
Yea, she does. She's still got some tig ol bitties, though |
Inveigh
06.11.10 | yea her food sucks but she's smokin hot |
Inveigh
06.11.10 | that smokey, scratchy, almost husky voice she's got makes me wanna do vile things to her |
buckfutter
06.11.10 | I bet you she would do mean things with my italian sausage |
AngelofDeath
06.11.10 | Meh, she annoys me too much to find her attractive. If I were to poke a celebrity chef/food personality, it'd most certainly be Padma from Top Chef. |
buckfutter
06.11.10 | Padma's too skinny for me. Remember, we all like the fat chicks!
Top Chef starts next Wednesday, thank god. I love Top Chef Masters, but I like to see good food being cooked while all the contestants are ready to strangle each other |
BigHans
06.11.10 | Giada is easily the most bangable FN star. I would absolute punish her in the sack. Racheal Ray is cool too, her show is realistic and useful.
Alton Brown is #1, followd by Guy Fierra just for Triple D, which is one of the greatest shows ever.
Morimoto is awesome when hes on Iron Chef, guy is a fucking beast.
Florence is a fag, but he does have some great recipes. He has this recipe for Generals Chicken that is off the FUCKING CHAIN. |
qwe3
06.11.10 | dude i knew it was you when i saw the title |
buckfutter
06.11.10 | Qwe- It's nice to be easily recognized
Hans- Yea, Tyler's somewhat annoying to me, but I love his food too much to not put him at #1. |
Inveigh
06.11.10 | yeah I'm with Hans on Florence and Giada. anyone ever seen the show Three Sheets with that guy Zane who just travels the world participating in various drinking/drunken customs? it's awesome.
but seriously, I still just wanna give Rachel Ray the ol banger and mash |
AngelofDeath
06.11.10 | Forgot I was posting in the den of chubby chasers. xD
Guess Paula Deen's more up your alley lol. |
Maniac!
06.11.10 | Bighans, you are my new best friend. Alton Brown is fucking awesome. |
BigHans
06.11.10 | Alton is king. |
buckfutter
06.11.10 | I don't just go by on-screen personality. I go by how your food tastes, and while Alton's food is great and his lessons on skills are spot-on, Florence's food is king in my house |
Maniac!
06.11.10 | You have to factor both in because its television. Alton's screen presence beats the crap out of Tyler, plus he makes damn fine food. Tyler only makes good food. |
buckfutter
06.11.10 | I don't factor in on-screen presence due to the fact that isn't the reason why I watch nor make their food |
qwe3
06.11.10 | i enjoyed this list |
AngelofDeath
06.11.10 | The thing that makes Alton great isn't necessarily his food. It's his encyclopedia-like knowledge of food and his demonstration of technique as well as food science and theory. |
Maniac!
06.11.10 | AngelofDeath is correct. You SHOULD factor in screen presence due to how much you enjoyed learning how to cook the food from that person. I can sit and watch Alton all day long without cooking anything, because he is that entertaining. At the same time.. I would cook however he told me to lmao. |
buckfutter
06.11.10 | Weirdest shit just happened:
We moved into this house officially two weeks ago. I'm sitting here at the computer with my ankle up icing it when I noticed 6 kids in my backyard(we have 2 acres) trying to start a fire. I went out there on my crutches, yelled at them to get off of my property, and one of them came running up to me challenging me to a fight!?!?!?! The minute this started going down, 3 police cars pulled up and came running into the yard with guns drawn. I didn't call the cops, so someone else must have. Just really fucking weird.
But ya, Josh, TX BBQ is where's its at |
qwe3
06.11.10 | hahaha setup |
Maniac!
06.11.10 | thats where nick went. |
buckfutter
06.11.10 | Lol, these kids looked to be older middle school to ealry high school, and this small lil kid with a major country accent just started charging at me, screaming, "What Bitch?!?!?!" over and over again. |
AngelofDeath
06.11.10 | Lol. Kids these days. |
buckfutter
06.11.10 | Lol, I just found it funny. Kinda reminded me of my younger, dumber days. |
Maniac!
06.11.10 | I TOLD YOU THAT YOU WERE AN OLD FART KEEPING KIDS OFF YOUR LAWN! |
Inveigh
06.11.10 | haha yea that reminds me of something i would've done, minus the country accent. welcome to suburban nebraska pit, where they use a swat team to keep kids off the cripple's lawn |
buckfutter
06.11.10 | When the cops were running up I started thinking about whether they were going to go after the local kids or the crippled, tatted up white boy that just moved into the area from the big city. |
Maniac!
06.11.10 | WHAT BITCH?! |
Inveigh
06.11.10 | were they driving a General Lee look alike? |
buckfutter
06.11.10 | Nah, they were actually in Suburbans |
Inveigh
06.11.10 | lol |
buckfutter
06.11.10 | It was weird because when they ran up, they told me to get inside the house, like I needed to protect myself. They didn't ask the kids any questions, put them in cuffs, took them to the cars, searched them, put them into the cars, and left. Didn't say another word to me |
Inveigh
06.11.10 | ruh-roh. you ever seen Mystic River? I got a bad feelin about what's happenin to them meddlin kids... |
buckfutter
06.11.10 | Damn, this makes me want to set up my smoker |
Inveigh
06.11.10 | dude do you have any idea how hard it is to get good bbq in Chicago? maybe I just don't care for the style, but you have to search really hard to find a good spot in my area (although I've heard about some dope kitchens on the south side) |
BigHans
06.11.10 | Dont these kids no better than to mess with a tattooed metal dude? |
buckfutter
06.11.10 | Lol, Han.... to be honest, I'm not that big a guy, so when you see me on crutches you wouldn't think much of me |
BigHans
06.11.10 | Its ironic that you moved somewhere that is stereotyped to be safe and you're already getting greased by the local toughs. |
buckfutter
06.11.10 | If the local toughs are 13 and 14 year olds, then this place might be alright. I'm used to dealing with local toughs that were 28 and 29 Cubanos/Cholos who would kill you for a bite to eat |
