That exchange might as well have been in Swahili.

Ahahaha. Yeah you are both correct.
Hedo, Dankind is pointing out the basic response to anything Biscuit does.
The books are boring but the kid loves Biscuit
Prepped a few different pork kabob marinades, vacuum sealed then and will open before grill time.The love he receives is the love that is saved0 -
Another pork weekend lol
Fresh uncured ham steak on the grill with red beans and rice, followed by pork jowl burnt ends.
Nailed it with both.
That's my first time cooking fresh ham, it was good. Very porky, dense texture, not as tender as a loin chop, but equal to a sirloin chop and better than a blade chop.Monkey Driven, Call this Living?0 -
Will be interesting to see how many ways you will come up with to cook all of that pork.
Those look good!The love he receives is the love that is saved0 -

^^That does look like a lovely summer meal. BBQ is a summer food because it's a good time for the preparation, but it's really too heavy for eating in the heat, and would be a better meal for the cold season.
I'm not surprised about the pork fat... People confuse "healthy" with "nutritious" all the time, and give little thought to what either means as well. It's sort of a hobby horse issue for me, so I'll go ahead and give my thoughts here in this place devoted to thoughts on food.
"Healthy" food is not really something I even believe in at all. I don't much believe in unhealthy foods, either, with a few exceptions.
It's not the individual foods that are healthy or unhealthy, it's the accumulation of foods that makes your diet that is healthy or unhealthy, or more accurately, balanced or unbalanced.
Our Western (American in particular) diets are unhealthily skewed towards sugars and fats, there's no doubt about that. The pushback against that though leads to some weird ideas.
The perfect example is salad greens...Even if we throw iceberg lettuce out and focus on the healthiest greens, we're talking kale, mustard greens, etc, you are looking at food that is only marginally nutritious. If you want to live off meat alone, you can do it. You can live 50-70 years before you die of colorectal cancer on red meat (everyone's favorite skapegoat) alone. How long can you live on kale alone? Probably less than a year.
So which food is actually healthier?

Interesting points above and makes you think. I try and limit my red meat consumption and stick to more chicken, fish and “leaner” meats like ground turkey or bison instead of ground beef. I do love a steak, sausage, etc as much as the next person though (on occasion).Another one that shows conflicting data is the egg yolk debate. Good cholesterol or bad?0

Also, great eats above this weekend! All looks great. We made a different type of burger last night. Ground turkey with spinach and feta. Then tzatziki on top. No mustard or ketchup. It was really good. It reminded me of eating a gyro. Oh, and homemade fries too.0
-
The tzatziki makes that sound great. Turkey burgers get so dry that I feel they need something like that (cado is my normal) to help it out.
Listened to a cool interview of my dude Mark Bittman this weekend, during which he shares some of his thoughts on what is healthy....
Thought you might find interesting, Gambs, or any others.
I love his take on plant based meat subs.

There was a post of vegan salmon on the vegan/veggie thread and it looked like disgusting lab-created "food".Monkey Driven, Call this Living?0 -

I think the screaming about plant based / engineered stuff gets carried away.
I laughed when he said how gross he thought Impossible was.
(I like the Beyond stuff I have had just fine - but it sure as hell doesn't taste like meat.)The love he receives is the love that is saved0 -
Plant-based diets are not a bad thing, but the plant-based meat substitutes are questionable in my opinion. Like it was said above, they're processed lab food that tend to be sodium bombs as well. I'll take my chances with the real thing, but that's not to knock anyone who wants to go the other route. I try to live by the mantra, "all things in moderation."
