FOOD THREAD VOL. GRUB LIFE

[air spider 777]

Multiple times. Best BBQ in NY. Pastrami bacon, sausage, and beef rib are a must there.

That lamb belly banh mi slaps too.

Good to hear. Cant wait for lunch later today lol

 

[Comparison Ford]

Yeah I’d be hyped. Maybe I can convince my girlfriend to take the trip out there later haha. Post pics when it’s all said and done.

 

[B Sox]

Have any fellow NY’ers been to Hometown BBQ in Red Hook? Going there tomorrow. Pumped to specifically try the pastrami bacon.

Yup, it’s really, really good. Several NTers have posted about it, myself included.

The pastrami bacon is otherworldly.

Enjoy

I feel conflicted about posting burritos.
Without showing the cross section pics are pretty much useless. But cutting your burrito in half would downgrade your overall experience.
I've given this way more thought than it deserves.

I too have thought about this and have reached a similar conclusion. The only burrito pics I’ve posted are ones topped with sauce and cheese, aka “wet” burritos.

 

[B Sox]

I know we clown bitten food pics, but perhaps burritos are the one food where it should be allowable?

Not shocked im sick now.
My mom pulled out the heavy duty stuff for me.

Simple, go the DCAllAfrican way and take two bites of the burrito and then take the pic.

Don't feel conflicted. The most important part of the situation is EATING the food. People know what the inside of burrito looks like.

Just don't bite it and take a picture.

And Empanadas.

 

[jaymosenvied]

Beans
Rice
Chicken
Sour cream
Extra sour cream
Cheese
Extra cheese
Extra extra cheese

Sounds like Chipotle to me which is trash. I'm disappointed

 

[Master Zik]

And Empanadas.

Speaking of

Empanada City

Ropa vieja (pork), Americana/cheeseburger, and ground beef.

Bit one and tore the other two in half.

Nah. People know what stuff looks like plus usually the stuff is mashed together and indistinguishable at that point.

Trash in terms of what?

That's too much in a burrito. It will break apart. Reminds me of Chipotle because with each bite rice and beans are falling off the burrito.

Oh ok well that is User Error and not rhe fault of the establishment. You tell THEM what to put in the burrito. The problem is most of us dont strategically think about structure/profile when ordering our burritos, we simply add EVERYTHING that we like.

I have never had a burrito break on me from Chipotle other than the 1 time I put tomatoes on it and it made my tortilla soggy and I made a decision to never do that again.

 

[heelsandeers]

speaking of bitten burritos

just ate this and it was 10/10

smoked brisket
rice/beans
scallions/cilantro/lime juice
pickled slaw
cheese
hot sauce

 

[kdawg]

Well my first sous vide experiment was a partial success. I put this brisket in at 155° for about 28 hours then cooled it down and put it in a hot oven with some barbecue sauce (made using the liquid from the bag) for 30 minutes to get some color.

I think I would prefer it a little less done in the middle so next time I’ll try a lower temperature but it’s delicious.

Served with my wife’s cornbread, baked beans, mashed potatoes and more sauce.

Bruh I know how to eat I came to realize that I don't like rice and beans in my burrito and rather have it on the side. Do you add guac and sour cream in your burrito because that makes it soggy too.

 

[B Sox]

This burrito talk made me realize that I actually haven't had one in a really long time. Always get a bowl at Chipotle and tacos anywhere else I go.

I DO NOT add cheese, sour cream, or guac to my burrito.

If I have a taste for guac, I get it on the side and smear it on before each individual bite. (As I do with hot sauces)

I always ask for a minimal amount of rice and I get beans for the extra protein.

Damn no cheese? You lactose?

 

[Master Zik]

Yeah don't care for the rice and beans in my burrito either. Prefer more protein.

 

[DCAllAfrican]

I don't eat cheese unless it is on pizza and I eat that maybe 10 times per year.

The smell and taste of the majority of cheeses simply disgust me.

 

[SupremeBeing5]

Ever thrown in an Açaí packet in there? Also if you don’t have nut allergies I find almond milk as a great addition instead of juice/water

Yeah Acai is where the inspiration came from. I used flaxseed milk. The apple juice is common as well.but realized today, I don’t even need it.
