Fried mozzarella sticks are probably one of the most delicious foods, but the great question is....do you prefer marinara sauce or ranch dressing? Me? I'm a ranch guy....it's such an amazing combination of tastes

This is how you tell the obese from the morbidly obese.

>Fried mozzarella sticks are probably one of the most delicious foods
Really? In my experience they're the worst bar food. Is your taste just awful, or have you managed to find the place that makes amazing fried cheese sticks? If you think the latter is the case please share it's location with the rest of us.
How do i get my girlfriend to become a better cook? She is fucking terrible and i will never marry her if she doesnt improve. She cant even make a fucking grilled cheese without burning it to a crisp
>>8282709
Have you tried teaching her?
>>8282709
>She cant even make a fucking grilled cheese without burning it to a crisp
Lower heat
Cover it to get the cheese melted
Cooking is pretty intuitive and it's possible she's just stupid
Tell her to take a cooking class and see if there's improvement
Your gf will never be a better cook than mummy. I guess you'll starve to death.
Now THIS is a pizza.
>>8280827
Amen brutha!
>>8280827
WTF? Where's the pepperoni? Where's the cheese? Also that's WAAAAAAAAAAY to small. I bet you paid 20 bucks for that shit too.
>>8280863
Bet again gaylord
Good morning /ck/. It's been a while since the last thread, but with the upcoming holidays I figured it might be a good time to post one. That being said, the butcher is in- feel free to ask any questions you may have about cuts of meat or anything else related to the field and I'll do my best to answer what I can in a timely fashion.
That being said, AMA /ck/.
What do you reckon/know to be the nicest cut of human meat?
>>8278465
It seems I get one of these questions in every post.
I don't believe there is such a thing as a "nice" human cut. Humans eat highly processed foods and junk that even some animals would pass by. Additionally, many of us live highly sedentary lives and are highly emotional people. Stress, fear, and other emotional aspects change the way the meat tastes when an animal is killed for processing (due to muscular tension, built up acids, etc.). Obviously it only matters what the animal is feeling when they are being killed, but regardless- humans aren't exactly an ideal stock for consumption.
That being said, the theoretical "best cut" from a human would mimic the cuts from any other animal. The rib section and the loin sections would be the most tender; the rib section and the chuck section would be the most flavorful. Given this concept, the rib section would be the best overall choice.

Thanks OP.
If I wanted to get the large piece of meat that NY strips come out of, what would it be called? What if it were bone-in instead of boneless?
Same goes for NY Sirloin. What's the name for the large piece that they come from?
About time we had another of these.
Bought some Ardbeg 10 a few days ago, it is every bit as good as people would have you believe.
Getting into bourbon recently, love Bulleit and Makers Mark is pretty good. What is pic related like? It is on offer in my local supermarket, worth getting?
>>8276281
Pick it up, compadre. I also recommend Eagle Rare as a good selection.
is this stuff considered good?
>>8276288
Eagle Rare is expensive (£34) compared to Woodford (£22) and Bulleit (£20), is it worth it? Happy to pay if so, but its top money for bourbon here.
Will get some Woodford tomorrow if you say its good, starting to really like bourbon
Hey /ck/, I'm getting ready to cook Thanksgiving in about a week and was wondering if I could use coconut oil for this.
>>8289943
nah, smoke point too low
>>8289943
if you want an oil with some taste, use avocado.
>>8289943
ARE YOU PLANNING ON DEEP FRYING IT? IF SO, UNFORTUNATELY NOT ANON. YOU NEED AN OIL WITH A HIGH SMOKE POINT. PEANUT OIL IS COMMONLY USED SPECIFICALLY BECAUSE OF THIS. FOR THE RECORD, COCONUT OIL HAS A SMOKE POINT OF 177C WHILE PEANUT IS ABOUT 227C. THOSE HIGHER SMOKE POINTS MEAN THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A PROPERLY COOKED TURKEY AND A BAD ONE AT BEST, AND AN EXTREME FIRE HAZARD AT WORST.
I WOULD ADVISE GETTING PEANUT OIL AND NOT PLAYING AROUND TOO MUCH WITH ALTERNATIVES. THE RISKS OF CAUSING SIGNIFICANT PROPERTY DAMAGE OTHERWISE IS NOT TO BE TAKEN LIGHTLY.
MAKE WAY FOR BEST CHEESE
CHOO CHOO
>>8289076
Lacks flavor and depth on the back end of the profile for an aged cheese. Nice sweet and nuttiness upfront tho. There is no such thing as a best cheese tho op there are simply to many wonderful totally different varieties but I wouldn't put comte at the top of my hard aged ones.
>t. Professional Artisan cheesemaker.
>>8289076
Wrong. Dick cheese is the superior cheese.
>>8289095

What is the best type of bread and why is it Challah?
>>8288919
I think we know who is behind this post.
>>8288927
Lol. (((challah)))
My vote goes to San Francisco sourdough bread. Too bad it sucks there now.
Want some of my polish dinner, /ck/?
>>8288135
I love those cabbage wraps but polish food is so fucking bland. I live next to a polish restaurant and across from a polish deli and it's like they never even heard of spice
>>8288135
No
I want my own full sized portion because it looks damn tasty and I am hungry
>>8288135
THIS LOOKS EXTREMELY BLAND
Redhill me on cranberry sauce. I've never had it. Is it eaten plain or on something? Is canned best?
>>8286940
Canned is never best. For any food.
I've seen cringe-worthy food ads from the 50's in which it was shown served in slices, but I've never seen that in real life. Normally it's a liquid sauce just like the name implies.
>>8286940
WHAT THE FUCK IS REDHILLING SOMEONE
you slice those puppies up into cranberry medallions. It is the best way to eat cranberries, this is indisputable. It is a side dish, served chilled. As shown in the picture it is pretty solid and will hold its shape.
You can make your own cranberry sauces if you are a cu/ck/ but prepare for disappointment. Cranberries need sugar and gimmicks to actually go over during a meal
Does /ck/ ever shop at those Asian food stores? You know, like the really authentic ones where when you walk in the staff all look at you kinda funny because you're probably the first White guy to stroll in all month? Where they have all kinds of fish kept live in tanks, and half the products have no English markings, except for maybe the nutrition label slapped on by the importer?
Yeah I go to a Vietnamese grocery store all the time. I also got an H-Mart (Korean grocery store) that I go to. They are awesome.
Around here, the places like that are Mexican. Though if you are willing to drive a bit. There is a small Korean shop. All of them look exactly like pic related. They only give two looks. One of joy when you buy something, and one of scorn when you only window shop.
>>8285846
Yeah, I go there for trumpet and shiitake mushrooms twice a week.
What are some foods you like that are unpopular or at least considered to be acquired tastes?

>Blood sausage, anything made with blood, actually
>Surstroming
>Brain soup
>Apparently, buckwheat. I was surprised.
>Genitalia (all animal species)
>cut sandwich diagonally
>it tastes better
you can't explain this
>>8284638
It can't be explained because there is nothing to explain. The taste is the same regardless of how it is cut.
>>8284638
when you eat a diagonally cut sandwich you're probably doing your first bite on one of the corners right? Well when you do this you have an air pathway on each side of your bite, which allows for greater aeration when you chew, causing your taste buds to be more receptive. When you eat a sandwich from a flat side you have no air pathways, muddying the flavor. This is a similar concept to pouring wine into a decanter. More air exposure, more flavor.
>>8284664
That first corner is so delicious
Who else here /onemealaday/?
>>8284336
Protein bars and shakes aren't healthy if all you're doing is sitting down
Right here nigger. One big ass meal about 8 p.m.
WHY?!
Do you hate eating?
How do I make the best burger? I need to know everything from cut of beef to toppings, order of stacking toppings condiments and bun type
I have a secret recipe but I won't tell you sorry
>Get 10-15% fat ground beef, then mix a third of its weight with ground pork.
>Make patties after adding in Famous Daves Steak&Burger seasoning.
>place them in fridge for an hour to be able to stay in form when grilling
>Lightly oil with olive oil on formed patties when taken out and grind fresh peppercorn on both sides
>Grill
Toppings is all on you, there is no secret on that. To keep it simple, I just add my cheese, some onions, mustard and a little ketchup.

Ill tell you if only you tell me first
