A Closer Look at Le Tub's Cheeseburger

@ohjessica, 50 minutes? Really? That is surprising considering the photo of that burger looks like it only took about 30 seconds to cook! Thats not a burger, thats a tartare sandwich!

Sprinkles, Shots or Jimmies?

I've always known them simply as Jimmies. Now that my daughter is 3, she has learned that they are Jimmies and asks for them constantly and she does just what I did with them, eat them right from the container, forget the ice cream...

Creme Brulee Torch recommendations??

I use the tried and true BurnzOmatic torch found at any hardware store. It's cheap, easy and can be used for many things.

Serious Sandwiches: Tony Luke's Roast Pork Italian, Philadelphia

Adam, next time in Philly, let us know. You can try some Scrapple and head you off to Tony Luke's favorite pizza place (on the Jersey side)!

homebrew supplies

I've used ECKraus and The Grape and Granary with satisfaction. Even though I also buy from two local stores, I still end up having to buy online in order to get just what I want.

Ostrich — the other red meat!

@Amandarama; I've only had ostrich steaks before, but they were always cooked medium to rare, so I would imagine that you could cook the burgers medium/rare as well.

Romantic, upscale New Year's Dinner for 2

We're on the same page. We usually have a party on NY's eve, but since this has been such a horrible year for us (the worst in over 20 years), we decided to go it alone and see this crappy year out with a personal feast of seafood and filet mignon. We'll have crabcakes, sea scallops, snow crab legs, salmon or sea bass and the filet mignon. I'll open up a really good wine and try to forget 2008....

This Thanksgiving I am going to try something new and it is.....

I'm adding a Venison dish in honor of the first Thanksgiving meal. Not sure what cut of meat or how I will prepare it yet, I still have to find a butcher shop where I can get it.

bud american ale

I tried it as well. Pale Ales are my favorite, I love the taste of the Cascade hops. It is good. Not as good as most other microbrews, but it's an average of $2 cheaper than those really good kind, so I guess it's sort of a trade off.

Anyone watching the Batali/Paltrow show on PBS?

This show would have been much better with just Mario by himself. If he needs a sidekick or travel partner, bring back ROONEY!!! Bittman totally ruins it for me.

Has anyone ever heard of an Italian "Christmas" pizza?

I think this was The Secret Life of Pizza, and I think the Christmas pizza was from Ray Bari's, but I don't remember the name of the pizza.

Labor Day Eats - What are you making?

Since I never recieved my invitation from @deeoh1 for that pig roast, I guess that I'll do up some beer brats, meatatarian kabobs (beef, chicken and pork) and fresh Jersey corn.

How far off-menu should a restaurant be expected to go?

This is a tough call. I am the kind of person that will eat anything and enjoy the tasting menu's of the Chef's creations, just the way they envisioned it. BUT... my wife on the other hand, is not as adventurous and I appreciate those Chef's willing to make a slight change to accomodate. BUT... some people may go too far and decide that they have better/different ideas than the Chef and start creating their own dishes, which is not the purpose of a Chef's menu. So...

Table Manners III: Do you eat European or American-style...

Euro for me. I think either is fine but... I ask you this...

Is the SHOVEL method acceptable? I think NOT!!! Do you hear me Jeffrey Steingarden? I think the shovel method is for children under 8, if you are an adult and still using the shovel method, you need go sit at the kiddie table until you learn proper manners! So, back to the kiddie table Jeffrey! :)

When on the Jersey Turnpike, Eat at Popeyes

My first time ever trying Popeyes was in fact on the NJ Turnpike. Ever since then, no more KFC. We even had a birthday party once where most of the food was from Popeyes. Pretty good stuff for being fast food.
