Yes, they do look good. I'm not really into smoked food but I'd give
those mussels a taste! My grill is a Weber Kettle charcoal grill. Not
really conducive to slow smoking anything. I also wouldn't know where
to find fresh black mussels to smoke.

I wouldn't know where to find fresh black mussels either but it's easy to smoke
on a Weber kettle charcoal grill. I've done rubbed Boston butts on mine several
times.

Please, there are more suited newsgroups for this kind of talk.

Never cared much for clams. When I lived in CT, we used to go to a
restaurant about 50 miles away just to enjoy the mussels. Lots of
garlic and butter.

I buy frozen mussels in butter & garlic sauce. Nice.

They're not fresh. They're steamed and frozen for $1.99/lb (the
price hasn't changed on these for 21 years now). From Chile.
 
I often just thaw and eat them. But they hold up well to further
cooking if you're gentle. I often make a Thai red curry using
them. Or butter, wine, and garlic.

Indeed, not only do we enjoy eating corpses, sometimes we like to kill just on general principle.

Yeah, but those are psychopathic hunters. Most RFC'ers won't kill an
animal, they'll let someone else do that. I don't see Ed and Jill go
into the forest together and come out with a dead deer.

Back in the 1960's Mom bought the folded cardboard cartons of ice cream
at the Commissary. At the checkout the carton was placed in a brown
paper ice cream bag that was lined with foil help keep the ice cream
cold on the way home. That doesn't address Dave's original complaint of
having the ice cream start to melt *before* he could ever get to the
checkout stand due to long lines and very few checkout lanes open.

Read the full post not just about dripping ice cream and what your mom
would have done which what she would have done has no bearing on
what happened to Dave.
 
Grin. 😬

I love the way she writes "Grin". :) Dave was complaining about having
to wait in line so long that the ice cream started melting before he
made it to the checkout stand.

You've not noticed Carol will join in a conversation right smack dab in the
middle with of with no real knowledge of what's been discussed?? Then
she will jump with either an attack or 'tip' that really makes no sense.
 
Like her response to Dave about his melting ice cream. She tells him her
mother would have taken it out of the car immediately and wrapped it.
Gee, wasn't that a helpful statement that has nothing to do with his original
statement? 🙄

I don't know what was so confusing about it. I did address the issue of
the number of unmanned checkout counters and the ridiculously long lines
and waits so long that the ice cream was melting enough that it was
leaking. Not such soft, but melted and leaking. That is way too long to
have to wait.

Well, you can't even call that thread drift.
 
I did notice, however, that cshenk gets very upset if you suggest that
she might be wrong about something. Therefore I say: cshenk is always
right, except when I am!

I hope RFC has been paying attention. We're not allowed to mention
melting ice cream and what to do about it, except in the context of
Dave Smith and his long checkout lines.

Yeah. She tends to come late to the discussion and then trim the
relevant parts. Dave's ice cream was starting to melt before he got to
the checkout to pay for it.

I propose that we all pull out our lighters and collectively mourn
Dave Smith' ice cream.

Wait, wait, wait, Steve! The first time I recall Bryan yapping about
his e-book it was available FREE on Amazon. I sure as heck wouldn't
have paid $.99 to read it. And yes, I did read some of it before
getting bored with the terrible prose.

No one will care about that book, either. This post is no doubt
engineered to try to lure John Kuthe back into his Cheep Effects posts.

Smarter than a fox. Bilked family for a couple hundred grand and has purple panties and a great job.
Laughing at all of us.

PITTSTON, Pa. — A shopping center in Luzerne County is now requiring everyone under the age of 18 to be accompanied by an adult.
 
The Insalaco Shopping Center on Wyoming Avenue made the announcement on the West Pittston Facebook page.
 
The post says they had to enact this policy due to "unacceptable" behaviors by some teenagers and children, including destruction of property, disrespect of customers, and other unsafe behaviors.
 
The policy says that customers under 18 are still allowed to go into stores and restaurants to buy food and other items, but they must take it to go.
 
My local news. That is the good news.
