Hi Folks,
My mother in law came up a few weeks back and brought some absolute spot on sausage rolls from a farm shop near them, which has got me hankering for a good sausage roll or pork pie this coming weekend....bonus points if it comes from a deli where I can get a bunch of other savoury and sweet treats.
I leave near Cross Gates and have no car, but don't mind a bit of a bus journey....and I have tried Wilsons in Cross Gates but wasn't a fan of their award winning pork pie.
Any help folks?
Wired is one of "those" Part 7 fights. The one which makes you question the eternal praise of SBR. Its concept is strange, the actual strategy used is unsatisfying, and the Pork Pie Hat Kid is a 2D caricature. He can't talk quite right, which is kind of funny but a little too un-similar to the dialect of the Boom Boom Family. He doesn't wear a Pork Pie Hat either, its just bamboo wrapped in vines. I guess that's kind of funny too. His stand is a reel that comes from his mouth, that's kind of funny too.
This guy's entire character is things that are "kind of funny". Which doesn't carry him far in a somewhat dry fight, which had every reason to be good since it was the awakening of Tusk. After Pork Pie Hat Kid gets fucked up a bit in the fight, he becomes a very ugly creepy man, a common trope in JoJo fights, and then he finally dies by falling off a cliff.
Even after rereading this arc, there was so little I could find to write about him. I think that's a pretty good reason to cut him. In terms of reception, he's definitely pretty forgettable to most, but I guess he has a cult following of people who like him ironically. Either way, I found him worse and more annoying then anyone else on the cut.
One day, a young man named Josh went to ask his neighbor, Mister Miller, for a pork pie recipe he planned to make for a friend visiting in three days.
Mister Miller was old and overweight. But he was happy to share his late wife's recipes from the United Kingdom.
“Maggie loved to cook,” the old man said, fighting back tears. “She would've loved to share her cooking with you.” He handed the thick cookbook to the young man.
The book made Josh's hands tremble. “Geez, thanks, Mister Miller.”
“Do you need anything else?”
“I think I'm good, thanks.” Josh smiled.

Josh returned home and settled, looked through his fridge, and frowned. He read the recipe again, his finger pressing against the yellow page.
“I guess I need some pork,” he said. “Only thing is, I don’t have time.” After pondering, the young man looked out one of his windows and saw Mister Miller. Mister Miller noticed and waved. Josh waved back and walked away. He checked his phone to see if there were any text messages from Betty, his friend. As it turned out, there was. Josh clicked on Betty’s text. It read:
Betty: Guess what. I m going to be here tomorrow night!!! Excited. ;)
Josh rubbed his hand against his forehead and pursed his lips. He checked the time: 2:09 pm. And with repressed feeling, replied to Betty:
Josh: ok no panick. C u Betty
The young man tapped his fingers on the countertop repeatedly. He paced around. He saw Mister Miller struggling to dig up some roots in the garden. Without hesitation, Josh went to see him. He crossed to the fence that separated the two properties.
"Need help, Mister Miller?" Josh asked with a smile.
“Damned potatoes!" Mister Miller answered. He leaned against the shovel clumsily. "Care to help, son?" Quietly the latter hesitated then agreed. Mister Miller smiled.

After an hour or two, Josh wiped his brow as Mister Miller came out with a beer bottle. So far, only six potatoes have been dug up.
"For you," he said.
"I can't, sir." Josh returned the bottle.
"Don't you drink?"
"I don't."
"Huh."
&
Slowly, Josh entered Mister Miller’s backdoor, covered in dirt.
“Hey, hey,” the old man said, upon seeing the younger man. “Take your shoes off first!”
Josh frowned. “I know . . .” He checked the time: 5:47 pm.
Mister Miller then said, “and take those potatoes, too.” The old man carefully plopped on the couch. The television was playing the news. And Josh stood there with hands

Popped for a nice 200 dollar throne after 50 years of crappy ones. One year and about 70 gigs later one of the feet was lost. I contacted Pork Pie and he told me to buy Gibraltar feet. I retired a Tama throne that was 10 years old and had my ass sitting on for almost 700 shows and the feet are still intact. I thought perhaps with a premium product you would get premium service, but instead he busted my balls for not throwing 10 bucks at his shit design. Thought I would share. First world problems I know, but that fucker pissed me off...
I want to make a relatively low-fat cottage pie but where I live, lean beef (like London broil, cuts from the round) is very expensive. I was wondering if mixing ground brisket (relatively fatty and cheaper) and ground lean pork (cheap) would make a good, decently lean cottage pie. Are there better alternatives?
However, I understand that brisket can be very tough if not cooked for long enough to break down collagen; though, I have seen recommendations for ground brisket being used in burger patties so clearly it works in that context. I was thinking of first browning the pork, putting it aside, then braising the brisket for a few hours with aromatics (onions, etc.) and then combining everything and the potatoes in a baking tray to bake.
If I want to go ahead with this combination of meat, what considerations should I have in mind to make sure the finished product isn't inedibly tough?
Thank you!
