This week we're doing something a little different. Board ownership loves this thread but wants to put more eyes on it. We're going to give it a trial run on the main board until Sunday when it will move back here. I suggested that bout little crew here has a good thing going and if it turns in to a shitshow on the main board, we'll do 2 seperate but I think this could work fine and grow. Just follow the link to the main board thread. Cheers

This has been an outdoor dawg tradition since that boards inception but we're giving it a shot on the main board. What does everyone have on tap? Baseball? Grilling? Fishing? Remember, the more pics the better.

I'm sure there is something in that price range but not so sure what you would get in terms of a house or neighborhood. Im in Madison but I will say the drive on 22 to flora is pretty nice.

This week in Iraq dinners was self made po-boy. No fried shrimp that day, so I used "cajun" BBQ shrimp. It was not good, but nothing else was either.

Move to Thursday night stogies. This one was a Padron 2000, and a dang nice choice. I had my local shop, the Humidor in HSV, send over a 10 pack sampler of full bodied robustos. Washed down with two O'Doul's premium, non-alcoholic malt beverages.

Sapper really is Making America Great Again. I grilled up a couple of 1 1/4 inch thick rid eyes medium rare with some twice baked potatoes, salad, and some French bread while watching the second half of the girls game. I drank a few Yuenglings and the Mrs had some of the fermented grape juice.

Got some tilefish from Wegmans today; never had it, so I decided to get fancy.

So we've got a parsnip puree, with pesto. Next to the fish are roasted broccoli florets. Surrounding the plate are carrots, broccoli stem (which I quick pickled), and cilantro leaves. On top of the fish is a "pomme maxim" (a fancy French term for a layered potato chip). It was pretty good. Tonight I've been drinking gin and tonics, but I may switch to single malt after this glass....

I had never heard of it, either, they just happened to have it at my favorite grocery store. The fish guy compared it to grouper, but I thought it was more like swordfish. White fleshed, flaky, but firm.

Guys thats what I'm talking about. If we could get more of y'all posting over to Outdoor Dawgs (http://www.elitedawgs.com/forumdisplay.php?13-Outdoor-Dawgs) about what you are cooking that would be great.
Yeah we all come here for great sports discussion, but I'd love to encourage other topics too. We have too many good cooks and outdoors people who could share their experiences and creations.

Dammit Sapper, making me miss that shithole.

Still a shithole, but with less to do. We are crammed on small bases that we abandoned years ago, and the Iraqis are doing all the fighting. Our day is literally spent in four places: hooch, gym, dfac, office.

I will post a full, unclassified update for those interested based on our first two months.

Chicken inasal for about $3USD in the Philippines. Pretty damn good too.

I had to look up what a tilefish was. Where do you find them and what would you compare it to?

Obviously never caught any but I know it's a deep water fish that is typically caught with electric reels. Supposed to be some of the finest eating out there. I think it's a high mercury deal like swordfish so you shouldn't eat it often but it's not easy to get.

ETA- There was a thread years back on the hull truth were 2 guys from BSL took a 20 or 22 ft cc waaay offshore for an overnight trip where they deep dropped for pelagics. The 2 things I took from that story was (a) one hell of an adventure (b) they had some balls to do that in a small boat.

Where are you at? I was in Ramadi in 2005 and Tikrit in 2009.

I love the Philippines.

I am enjoying it so far.

Found a local Palawan made IPA. Not bad at all, especially for the price.
