Son, you've got to try some Meadow Foam honey out of Oregon. Tastes like the guts of a campfire roasted marshmallow... You would swear the heavy vanilla finish was added in...

That looks like grandma used to make ;)

Son? You do know Im close to 60 right? :biggrin:

Theres your Meadow foam. I have a large Honey collection. Many types from around the country and the world. I also keep a large collection of raw coffee beans from many countries. I roast weekly.

Awww shiyit! Purps is putting it down. :biggrin:

So, raw beans huh? What do you roast in? I don't picture you as a roasting in the home oven type! I've used the ol popcorn machine route when I was desperate lol. Def takes a lotta work for a lil heavenly payoff haha. Where do ya get the raw beans? Not Somerset I assume lol! As awesome of a place as that is, the roasting company there is kind of meh for my tastes. I'm kind of a coffee freak, as I owned and operated a shop for a time. That honey looks and sounds like some good shtuff too! :fsu:

I roast on the patio in an antique corn popper. These are real hard to come by now. My dad had a new spare one in the cupboard. It must be from the eighties. it takes 8 minutes average

I get the beans online from Sweet Marias in Oakland
I have about maybe 15 varieties on hand.

All of these beans greatly differ at cupping. These are all top scoring beans, many from small family farms through out the world
Starbucks can not compete with me in making a quality cup of coffee. Mine walks on theirs.

All these beans have wonderful flavor profiles. Real nice.

Sweeet marias! Great site, even better coffee beans! Had a customer turn me on to it a few years ago..maybe I'll post up a pic of my antique coffee mill I have here. It's been painted over by some knucklehead god knows when, but still has original drawer with what appears to be it's original paper liner. Still grinds like a champ. Nothing like my Astoria grinder mind you!

starbucks burns all of their beans to achieve a "uniform" taste at all stores. a uniform burnt taste hahah.
Dr. P-have you tried guajillo honey? it has quite a unique taste. probably my favorite but I haven't tried that many to be honest. what do you slice that ribeye with to get it sandwich thin?

I like to try different roasts, but never like the over done beans. Its kind of smoky bitter to me like that.

Ive never tried guajillo honey. Ill look it up. I love to shop online.

I use this slicer. My folks got it for me years ago. It has another blade to cut prociutto paper thin slices as well

The ribeye I made yesterday, was sliced and pounded for me by the local butcher. I was high and didnt feel like doing it myself. I smoked Gorilla glue yesterday morning and was lazy all day

Green Tomato chile verde

Green Tomato chile verde

Im not one who eats with his eye's ,many people are turned off by what is not familiar without even trying somthing .My sayin is almost anything will taste good if you coook it the right way an ill try anything once

Soo the pics anint much too look at ,But this is a hearty Dish . I love those stick to ya Rib comfort foods ,I love stewed Meats that fall apart .


Below is my Green Tomato Verison of Chile verde .I had several Tomatoes from the garden that basically stopped growin soo i collected maybe 15 small medium an came up wit this idea .

First i deboned the pork shoulder pain in the Butt lol .Than seasoned well with adobo /Fresh black pepper /Salt / Cumin powder /onion powder an browned the chunks in batches

I roasted 2 jalepenos/2 Onion /2 Heads of Garlic /an all the tomatoes than put that all in a food processor with some cilantro . The (Chile Verde) was abit tighter than my usual Tomatillo verison .I added a corona to the pot after Browning the pork an Abit of beef broth half cup maybe .It loosened it up but as you see was not chile verde but more a braising base .Still delicious

It Cooked 3 hours in a dutch oven an was served over Arroz con Habichuelas
