I had no problem finding beer. Effes is plentiful, as is Tuborg and some other offerings. Not too much variety, though.

Any word on this?

Shoppers on Rte 1 (Potomac Yards?) has a ton of smoked turkey and pork products. Bought some smoked necks last week.

Can't wait to hear my friend from South Boston order this dish.

Even after I've strained the liquid, my latke/german pancake mixture sometimes developes a grayish, unappetizing puddle in the bottom of the bowl. Any tips on how I can avoid this in the future?

Does the $30 bar menu apply on Fridays and Saturdays, as well?

Hi! I'm looking for any input on a place that can host a dinner for twelve adults (and a coupla babies) on a Saturday evening. The party seems a bit too small to get a private room, but a bit too big just to plop down in the middle of a restaurant. Or maybe I'm wrong on this and places do have rooms for parties this small? I dunno. Anyway, something private or out of the way within the resaurant would be ideal to facilitate mingling, etc. Looking for a cheap to moderate price point (e.g., decent bar food would be fine) and pretty accessible food - nothing too crazy. People will probably prefer to spend any extra money on booze, rather than food. Would prefer a place in NoVa and/or that is accessible by metro. Any thoughts? Thanks!

Going to a couple of games at Camden Yards this weekend. Would it be totally inappropriate to show up in shorts and t-shirts? We'd just be getting beers at the bar.

Vermillion, too.

Not too much in this forum on this topic. My wife and I will be heading there in about a week. Any recommendations?

I smoke turkeys and chickens on my Weber bullet smoker and they come out great. If you're using a gas grill, you can place wood chips in a foil pouch, poke some holes in it, and throw it right on the flame (underneath the actuall grill). I've had less success with this method.

My wife and I are going to this. Anybody else planning to attend?

I was disapointed that I had to be out of town for the last couple of roadside drop-offs. However, I was fortunate enough to be in town this weekend, so I made sure to stop by and see Jamie this morning. I picked up some kielbasa and some salami cotto. Both were FANTASTIC - understandbly mild, but with a real nice depth of flavor. I couldn't recommend them more - the textures and flavors are spot on. I'll be sure to try to re-arrange my schedule for future events. In the meantime, can't wait for meatcrafters.com to take off.

Is "healthful" a word? Why not use "healthy?"

I know I've never cooked for you, but if you are looking to get rid of some cherry wood, I could certainly help you.

Date Change - dr.com Dinner at Evening Star Cafe
plunk replied to Escoffier's topic in Events and Gatherings
This sounds interesting but I am wondering if you have any other information about this? How much will it cost? -
My wife and I are going.

Does the entrance fee include the cocktails, or are they purchased separately?

"Next to the line!"

How are the pig's feet prepared/served? I'm going tonight and am thinking about ordering them.

Thanks for all the advice. I've gotta re-join Costco. Unfortunately, the only one near my house is in Pentagon Row (or whatever its called), and I've lost years off my life shopping there. Sooooo stressful. Sorry for the re-post, Pete. I searched for tri-tip and nothing came up. Anyway, thanks for the link.

Anybody know where I can purchase this interesting cut of beef? Any idea on how expensive it might be?

Big Green Egg - Kamado-Style Charcoal Cooker
plunk replied to DanCole42's topic in Shopping and Cooking
I know a BGE owner who loves it. They are indeed expensive. Have you thought about buying a Weber Smokey Mountain? I got one a few months ago and I love it.
