OK, first I have to admit that this is one of the weirdest recipes I’ve made…but the outcome is really delicious. The chicken meat is moist and the skin crisp…and it has a nice flavor also. It’s a recipe that was undoubtedly developed by some drunk guys at a backyard barbecue. The premise is this:Continue reading “Beer Can Chicken (aka Beer Butt Chicken)”

Plus de Neige
No I do not have a filter on the camera…it was snowing and blowing so hard today it was difficult to see across the street. This makes it very difficult to ride a bike…and even if one did venture out it would be unsafe on the streets because of low visibility. I don’t get veryContinue reading “Plus de Neige”

5.5 Liters
This is one of the most moving and inspirational short clips I have seen…it’s about a 5-star Indian chef who quit his job to care for the destitute. I was going to write a long discourse on it but it’s not necessary…the clip speaks for itself.

Buffalo, New York 8:01pm 1.11,11
As copied from a local TV station website: Winter Weather Advisory for all of WNY. Travel conditions are expected to worsen across the region as a winter storm bears down on the area. I knew I should have purchased studded snow tires for my bike.

Pizza Made with Leftovers

At anyContinue reading “A Cold and Snowy Ride on the Mundo…and a few things I saw and experienced.”
