Breakfast

Decided to get breakfast around noon today so I hollered at this chorizo taco from Taqueria El Patron. Starting the day with some grease took away the pain from putting away one to many Lagunitas. No gutwreck today, just one photo of greasy hangover food that taste good.

Fried Chicken Tacos

So yesterday I was chillin at this baby shower jump off in Oakland. It was cool, neo-soul/lite rap was being played for the people who aren’t comfortable with rap music or just fucking bitchmade. There was a taco bar, sangria, wine and a keg. Laid back saturday in the east bay kicking it with folks. At some point a whole squadron of hung over drunks came through and their leader, a man we call Thuggy, brought me a bag full of Chick-Fil-A. Apparently within the confines of Gurp City Chick-Fil-A is a well known delicacy that brings them much delight. When I think of Chick-Fil-A I think a dumb fuck franchise that loves bitchass jesus bullshit so fucking much they won’t open on Sundays because they got a fucking superwalmart dream of patriotic horseshit to live up too.

Malt Liquor Time!

Yesterday was pretty much awesome.  I ordered an old Charlie Papazian book, “Home Brewer’s Gold” from some biscuit and book store (?) in Georgia and it finally arrived.

You may be asking yourself,  ”why is this so awesome?”.  For starters it has the fucking recipe for Olde English “800″.

Double Jucy Lucy @ Matt’s Bar MPL$

Ladies and Gentlemen, I present the double Jucy Lucy from Matt’s Bar in Minneapolis:

Lots of shit going on

My computer broke.  Deal with it.  I promise to get an update to you before the weekend and then I’ll be posting up in Minneapolis this weekend talking about Jucy Lucys and other dumb shit that I’m going to get into with the homies Mike 2600 and Bitch Ass Darius.

If you’re in Minneapolis and wanna get crunk come out to Get Cryphy! on Friday night in the VIP Room of First Avenue where I’ll be blasting 504 Boyz at people with Plain Ole Bill and Jimmy Two Times.  This party has really grown into some shit you shouldn’t miss.  My goal is to get Bitch Ass Darius to do pushups on the dancefloor.

Or if you wear tight pants you can check me out at Too Much Love Saturday night at First Avenue in the main room with Soviet Panda playing lots of hipster shit for people with hairdos and spiked belts.

Bunuelos

I have never made bunuelos but after watching this I fucking want too

Bunuelos are basically fried bread with a mixture of sugar and cinnamon sprinkled on top.

Chicharrones

If you’ve never had chicharrones then you my friend are missing out on the taste of magic. If you’re wondering just what the fuck I’m talking about, chicharron is pork rind aka cracklins aka pork skin. They are served in a number of ways, most often you can find them seasoned and deep fried.

You can usually cop these at any corner store. I like them but that’s is just some entry level shit into the world of chicharrones. If you really want to taste your dreams then you need to man the fuck up and get some Chicharron Tacos. Thing with them is that they don’t deep fry the skin for the tacos. It’s seasoned and and fried in a pan.

My Kegerator, Pt. 1

 

This is why I haven’t been cooking shit.

All Grain Homebrewing #1

I made the jump to all-grain brewing this weekend.  So far I’ve brewed 2 batches of beer (American Wheat from Homebrewing 101 and Pilsner Urkel) using extract kits and decided to take my shit to the next level and actually do all of the work from scratch myself.  Homies DBlue and Shojonz came over on Saturday and we cooked up 10 gallons of Southern English Brown Ale.  If you don’t give a shit about how you can make beer like the breweries at the convenience of your own home than jump to one of Serg’s posts about bacon dogs or deep-fried pancakes, they are way more entertaining.

Deep Fried Pancakes

I finally got my hands on some Batter Blaster. When the internet first told me about this shit I couldn’t believe it, fucking pancake batter in a bottle. This shit is fucking organic too! I copped it at Whole Foods, they keep them in the refrigeration aisle. Batter Blaster is cute cause you get to shoot it on the pan but that’s for kids. I wanted to spray this shit in my deep fryer for some real magic. These are the results.
