Claude_Verret Posted February 19, 2016 Report Posted February 19, 2016 Pork loin doesnt need alot of rub. Grilling it won't develop a bark so there is no point in a thick rub. Give it the equivalent of a heavy seasoning and let it marinate in that for a few hours instead. Bark. That and the smoke are the key missing attributes from crock pot and other versions of pulled pork that would send NC natives into convulsions. They are damn serious about their pork barbeque in these here parts. Don't even begin to get them started on the vinegar vs. Ketchup based BBQ sauce debate. Quote

Vinegar :thumbdown: Tomato :thumbsup: Quote
Claude_Verret Posted February 19, 2016 Report Posted February 19, 2016 Vinegar :thumbdown: Tomato :thumbsup: Raleigh Durham and east is vinegar. Tomato based starts West of here into Tennessee. I have to admit the vinegar sauce has grown on me over the years, and now I buy hot vinegar BBQ sauce by the case from my favorite local joint. My friends and family in Buffalo don't let me come home without it. Quote
darksabre Posted February 19, 2016 Report Posted February 19, 2016 What beer do I want to drink tonight?Also, what do I want for dinner tonight? Quote

My friends and family in Buffalo don't let me come home without it. I actually don't mind it, I ate it a few times when I was visiting NC a bunch of years ago and it does seem to grow on you. What beer do I want to drink tonight? Also, what do I want for dinner tonight? I'll be drinking at least one Bear Republic Hop Rod Rye, and my wife is making fajitas. We're trying out some Tex-mex Jackfruit I found at Wegmans. Quote
Claude_Verret Posted February 19, 2016 Report Posted February 19, 2016 Lent. Fish fry from local Knights of Columbus for me. Quote
SwampD Posted February 19, 2016 Report Posted February 19, 2016 Of all the things I miss about Buffalo, the local fish fry is near, if not at, the top of the list. Quote

I think I could live on a diet of bark, beer, and bourbon. Quote
darksabre Posted February 19, 2016 Report Posted February 19, 2016 Of all the things I miss about Buffalo, the local fish fry is near, if not at, the top of the list. It's even hard to find a good one in Rochester. There's a place in Rush I like but I really wish I could just go up to the ol' church on the corner and get one, ya know? Quote
Weave Posted February 19, 2016 Author Report Posted February 19, 2016 Of all the things I miss about Buffalo, the local fish fry is near, if not at, the top of the list. I'm about 40 minutes away from the outer ring of 'burbs, and I miss the Buffalo area fish fries. They just don't get them right here. It's even hard to find a good one in Rochester. There's a place in Rush I like but I really wish I could just go up to the ol' church on the corner and get one, ya know? There is a line right about Clarence. East of it, thar be no good fries. If all goes well on Monday, I may be getting my Friday fish fry at lunch in the place you aren't mentioning. Quote

Weave Posted February 19, 2016 Author Report Posted February 19, 2016 Rush Creekside Inn? Yup. Used to lunch there when I worked at GM. Quote
darksabre Posted February 19, 2016 Report Posted February 19, 2016 Yup. Used to lunch there when I worked at GM. I haven't been there in a while. I liked it. Quote
Weave Posted February 19, 2016 Author Report Posted February 19, 2016 I haven't been there in a while. I liked it. They had a decent lunch. Including the fish fry. With some good luck I'll be in that neighborhood again. Quote
ubkev Posted February 19, 2016 Report Posted February 19, 2016 Kaiser roll, light on the mayo, Turkey, cheese, doritos on top. :) Quote
Claude_Verret Posted February 19, 2016 Report Posted February 19, 2016 Yeah I hesitate to call what the KoC does a fish fry, as it doesn't hold a candle to a Buffalo FF. But the proceeds tonight go to my sons school band so gotta do it. Quote
Kruppstahl Posted February 19, 2016 Report Posted February 19, 2016 just finished some apple slices. Fuji. Quote

Claude_Verret Posted February 20, 2016 Report Posted February 20, 2016 I'm sorta surprised you have a KoC down there in Protestantville. I was surprised too when I moved here. Once upon a time I was a 3rd degree Knight in WNY, but I haven't been involved here. AFAIK they don't have brick and mortar councils here like they have all over WNY. Quote
Doohicksie Posted February 20, 2016 Report Posted February 20, 2016 Victory. I'm drinking victory. Quote
SwampD Posted February 20, 2016 Report Posted February 20, 2016 I don't know why, but I really enjoy drinking beer out of a wine or martini glass. Tonight, it's a wine glass. I guess it's because it makes me feel fancy. Quote
Doohicksie Posted February 20, 2016 Report Posted February 20, 2016 I always knew you were classy, Swamp. Quote

I would have never guessed, I don't know why, but I really enjoy drinking beer out of a wine or martini glass. Tonight, it's a wine glass. I guess it's because it makes me feel fancy. Belgian beers and wine glasses..... Edited February 20, 2016 by We've Quote
