50 kilos is my weight. From toes to head. So for a man to want to lose 50 must mean you weigh 149 kilos. And that's being nice. And then you go and eat three kilos of ribs.

Who are you trying to kid? I find it rather sad.

Myself - i would like to put on a few kilos. Send your excess over to me...!!!!

Nasty little bitch, ain't you? Why keep having a go at Nigel ' s weight? He doesn't talk about you being a friendless lush living on someone's sofa.

**patsycat** · 15-07-2015, 10:12 PM

And who's sofa would that be, Mister know it all? do you have a name and address? And friends - you've just lost one. Lush, i don't think so. Such an eighties word.

I do have a home and i sleep in a king size bed.

I was just airing my concern for his health, that's all. Perhaps my way of writing is not very polite. It would be easier face to face talking, but that is not possible.

Apologies, Nigel, if i come across a bit harsh sometimes. My heart is in the right place, unlike some people.

Proper American BBQ. Beef ribs and brisket sandwich.

**charleyboy** · 16-07-2015, 06:42 AM

Those ribs look the DB's!

**kingwilly** · 16-07-2015, 06:51 AM

They look bloody good.

**bsnub** · 16-07-2015, 08:44 AM

Trust me lads they were all of the above. So was the brisket. As close to perfectly done as it gets. Just look at that smoke ring on those ribs. This pitmaster knows his stuff.

**nigelandjan** · 16-07-2015, 09:27 AM

BBQ Beef ? ribs

Well ok I would have lost a bet one that one , from where I am sitting its looks like slices of belly pork to me

**bsnub** · 16-07-2015, 09:33 AM

Yes those are beef ribs smoked slow and low.

**nigelandjan** · 16-07-2015, 09:38 AM

Yes indeed , never ever had beef ribs mate

I'm not sure if they turn up in the UK , certainly the butcher I go to only has pork ribs

Will have to try some next visit to Florida

Yes for sure. They are different from pork. These were BBQ'ed Texas style and done just right. Lucky to have that guy in my favorite weekend spot.

What sort of greens in the paper cup, Snub?

Those are collard greens. A staple in US southern cuisine.

Jem leaped off the porch and galloped toward us. He flung open the gate, danced Dill and me through, and shooed us between two rows of swishing collards. Halfway through the collards I tripped; as I tripped the roar of a shotgun shattered the neighborhood.

**kingwilly** · 18-07-2015, 02:21 AM

Jem Finch. Have you read the second book yet?

I have the new book but have decided to read "To Kill A Mockingbird" again. It is a beautiful piece of literature and thoroughly enjoyable. Bsnub mentioned collards and I had read about them only a couple of hours before so I knew what they were.

I have the film on my Sky box and I must have seen the last twenty minutes at least twenty times. The music, the acting, the direction make it one of my best films ever. Robert Duvall didn't say a word in what I believe was his first screen appearance but he was just as I had imagined Boo to be.

Who said healthy eating needs to be boring?

**Bettyboo** · 19-07-2015, 03:40 PM

^ yuck!

Think about a bacon sandwich, Chef Slaps. Or, a sausage and egg sandwich, or even a sausage and Egg McMuffin (open til 10:30 am!). Dream about it - the fact you've read these words means you won't be able to stop yeeself. Then see what happens in the morning... How many minutes to the local McDonald's? Do they have a cycle park? I think McDonald's breakfast is served til 10:30 am, did I mention that? But, best to get there before 10 in case you want that second sausage and egg Mcmuffin (or Big Breakfast).

Now, try to stop thinking about this!!!

**bsnub** · 19-07-2015, 03:40 PM

^^ The meat in that first photo looks absolutely horrifying. What in the bloody hell is it?

**Dillinger** · 19-07-2015, 03:45 PM

Tinned sardines I reckon

McDonalds is first-degree filth, Betsy - not to mention how pathetic the portions are. You should've taken me down the Burger King route.

It, Mr Snub, is sardines al picante. Plucked fresh from the shelves of my local Waitrose.

**Bettyboo** · 19-07-2015, 03:47 PM

I thought the same, but tin sardines are only edible because they're covered in a tomato sauce - if you take the sauce off then how does one eat that crap???

McDonald's sausage and egg McMuffin - it's the right thing to do.

(Burger King breakfast's aren't as good, I know this because I used to work Friday's at Chula and due to the traffic had to leave home around 6, get to Silom about 7, Have my Burger King Breakfast until 7:30, have my first double sausage and egg Mcmuffin about 7:40, and the second just after 8am. Sometimes, for variety, I'd have a Big Breakfast second, but had to finish on the glorious double sausage and egg McMuffin. I'd then burn it off with a ten minute walk to the campus...)
