I get into loops. So if i start eating then yeah. But i am strategic about portion sizes for snacks.

And i eat a solid food meal 7ish times per week based on when i feel like it.

This primarily comes from a place of laziness and hangry avoidance.

I too am haunted by the hanger monster.

You raise cattle?
Just a two week hang.
Don't raise our own... Let friends do it.
We go by there once or twice a week for cutting practice.
Brought a half home night before last and didn't have quite enough room for it all in our freezer... Have to do some smoking this week... Darn it.

So basically my use case is when I'm feeling hanger on the way or just want to avoid it. This happens a lot some weeks when I get busy. Other weeks i get excited to cook and so i do.

It's especially good for me when my stomach feels sour and i just need sustenance. Idk.

The home that burned was our farm. We kept 300ish head or so for 8 years. I had this delusion about getting out of tech and replacing the income with direct to consumer beef. Uh right. 3rd party tech dev and crypto ai backed prediction models are hard to trump. Now we grow out 2 black Hereford steers each year. We only have ours hung a week longer than your friends do. My wife is a classically trained chef so she likes her meat done just so. That cut sheet she cranks out is intense. The reason for two is because our grown ass kids raid our freezer every chance they get. We draw a red line on everything that's off limits: Tri Tip, Full width bone in sirloin, oyster steaks, tenderloin, tommies, culottes. Ground, roasts, briskets, short ribs? All they can eat lol :))))

I love cooking... Gramma taught me... In that same cast iron.

Nice!... Kids coming to stay next week... That's why we had to refill the freezer.
 
What do you like to cook? Looks like carmelizing some onions in the pic you took so I'm guessing meat and potatoes?
I love my meat and potatoes, but that gets boring.
Didn't eat meat or dairy for a couple years, which forced me to broadly expand my spice cabinet...I can still make good Pad Thai and spring rolls.

🤤🤤🤤

That's a favorite around here. We both make a damn fine one, if I might toot our own horns.

Ramen's been my next endeavor and where I break my 'don't eat animals you wouldn't kill with your own hands' rule. Gotta have that char siu.
My wife and I make an extravagant meal together rather than exchange gifts for Xmas and the first one we did was ramen out of the momofuku cookbook. Great stuff.

Can you eat something I killed with my own hands? 🤣🤣
I could live of char siu my dude.

All y’all are giving me the munchies dammit! And @Milson brought up momofuku and now I’m dreaming of noodles.
 
I have been using it as my primary sustenance for over a year and so I am unlikely to change my ways, but I am curious what her opinion is on its composition. I am mostly imbecile but it seems like most of the early ingredients are like, actual food?View attachment 1065768
Doesn't look terrible but I'd like to see an whey isolate or a more bioavailable protein on top of that list vs. pea protein. Nothing wrong with pea protein your body just isn't able to use most of it so that's mostly poop filler. If I'm using something for building I like to see a little fewer grams of fat per calorie. Other than that looks like a pretty good halfway point between a vegetarian protein and a healthy-ish maltodextrin based weight gainer.

Sorry I know you didn't ask me but I couldn't help myself

That's an absolute caveat to my rule - I would never turn down anything that someone else prepared for me. Bull testicle? Horse? Whale? Bring it on!!! 😤😤
I guess I'd draw my line at cannibalism, but I assume if I were in that situation, I'd probably be the meal.
And not in some new-age, existential, Moon River sort of way...
 
Btw, something from when I went on a food tour in Bangkok re: pad thai...over there, they add the condiments at the table. Spice level, lime, etc. All done to individual diner taste. I can pull up a photo later.

It's interesting to try doing on the plate and not in the wok (which they did in an alley behind the restaurant using Barrell and grate lol it was cool).

I got a young buck last weekend. Wish y’all were closer I’d have a Farmer’s Feast at my place. Or at least a farmers potluck but I have a feeling there would just be a lot of Doritos and snacks lol

Yeah they make a black version for more fitness orientation. I wonder if the protein source is different.

I row for exercise using a magnetic rowing machine so I'm not trying to build at all.
