The 50-Plus Room - for

[SmokingFap]

I did some salt pepper onion and garlic powder and baked 275 for 2 1/3 hrs in a pan covered with foil. Then put the BBQ sauce on and broiled uncovered to sticky up the sauce.... purists would be appalled but they are delicious

Here in KC, it's almost more about the rubs that people perfect. The most popular ones that I've found and have emulated are mostly paprika, with some salt, lots of black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and mustard powder. We mix all that up in a big shaker jar, but we don't sprinkle it on, we POUR it on, and rub it in to make a crust during smoking. I also love the different kinds of wood guys prefer to smoke with. I tend to stick to just hickory, such a traditional flavor. But oak seems to be the preferred wood of most of the pitmasters around here. We use a lot of cherry and applewood, too, to add a bit of sweetness. I use mesquite if I'm making something Southwestern, mainly because it sounds Southwestern?

And suddenly my stomach is rumbling like Chewbacca.

Just because of all the recent talk about farms and farming…

What historical era do u like? I did a paper when getting my bachelors of nursing for my final that talked about ww2 the holocaust focusing on victim and perpetrators and what turns men into monsters

There is an excellent book "Ordinary Men - Reserve Police Battalion 101 and the Final Solution in Poland" that covers the subject. It's disturbing, mostly as a study of human morality.

Bucking bales at 90 degrees into a barn with tin roof..................would kill me now.

Lol. Feed delivery days can be a bitch.

 

[Dom70]

Well, it’s a big range to be honest, but to riff off your mention, it would be a Civil War tale about a young soldier loosely based on my GG Grandfather’s experience in that conflict. We have some tales (some very tall) about him. I was then going to do a continuance of the story with his grand kids during WWII…

I’ve been torn with that as the Yellowstone series has sort of gone there now and popularized the generation hopping genre.

It’s probably all moot as I haven’t actually written anything!

I had a relative that was in the Civil War after the war he was a riverboat captain.... that type of series would be interesting ...I would read it

[Missk_2022]

Yum.... I dont have a smoker but my neighbor does. We cut down an apple and a pear tree so he has been using that

 

[Missk_2022]

There's a joke in there about you sharing your rack with the guys, but it's just too easy. I prefer a challenge.

Hahaha..... is even funnier considering they prefer eachothers rack to mine...hahaha

I went to a talk and it was about perpetrators as victims of the holocaust..... I had a hard time digesting it but there were survivors there too.... it was thought provoking

 

[SmokingFap]

I have made shrimp etouffee before and everyone loves it. I dont like seafood so I didn't even taste it

I'm calling your local sheriff's department to have you taken for a mental health evaluation.

I thought I already knew of and even had ALL of the fetishes, but "shelling crab" is a new one to me.

It is a challenge to get all the pieces out big. I have a method. Or to get claws out of the lobster whole..... shrimp you just twist their heads off and take out the poop shut where is the fun in that

I find it difficult to find empathy for those who willingly participate in the attempted eradication of other people.

One of the key points in "Ordinary Men" is that about 10% of those tasked with the execution of the holocaust refused to do so. By and large, they were not punished for their refusal. 10% actually enjoyed it and were particularly brutal in their participation. The remaining 80% did what they were told to do. Based on psychological studies, those percentages are a constant among people. It's not pleasant to think about.

Yeah I dont have a lot of empathy either. Evil people deserve all the evil that is coming to them. They talked about the systemic brain washing and how the depression affected the German people. How the victims 9f the nazis became ripe for the picking for that mad man and his cronies. One of the survivors said up to when the gates closed behind him most jews had no reason to think that the German would do any of this. They were an advances society that were cultured etc and they turned in to monsters... many had no inkling to run away.... it was something to think about, but hard to digest..

Yes. A lot of it was willful ignorance though. The nazis never hid what they were going to do, even prior to getting into power.

A lot of the time people will refuse to accept the possibility that others are capable of utterly heinous behavior and that they are the intended victims.

I would say I agree.... ignorance is bliss.... and then fear and self preservation does the rest

I was in Germany for 7 months, around 1999. They are law and order; I can see why Hitler led them to war.
