Top of the day AFN!
I broke out my guitar for the first time this year last night n got baked n jammed for a couple of hours! It was great because I haven't had much time lately to play as life has been crazy busy with the house remodeling and working 2 jobs with 6 kids.

Back to working on the house tonight though. Putting in the new flooring after work.

Nice Epi you got there. I got a few guitars as well… only 10 w amp unless I wanna go to the basement where the 200w PA with 1976 peavey 2x 2 12s cabinets filled with British and celestion speakers sits. I like playing loud but the basement is unfinished so the “ring” is ever present. Sound bounces everywhere! BC rich warlock, squire strat, schecter 006 elite (factory mistake ), and Washburn Nuno Bettencourt N1. A couple acoustics, a couple basses and a couple garage sale specials.

Good morning everyone! Was whipped from work and heat yesterday so didn’t post this but thank you @Twenty20 Adam and the crew in Mendocino for offering the Free the Seeds deal. Received mine last night!

Excited to see what comes up in the near future.

I like a half watt amp. You get the breakup of the power tubes at a volume that doesn't compress, or clip the mic, similar to playing my Trainwreck into the power brake.

Good morning Auntie
Looks like a tasty treat, you’ve got there

So, you could marinate that, to get it a bit more tender. Something with some acid would work well. The chewiness is the cut, really.

Be sure and be obsessive with drying the meat prior to the searing, to increase browning. Any moisture will steam the meat and inhibit the Maillard reaction….

Also…. The order for reverse searing is roast at a lower temp, rest the meat, dry, sear, short rest (2-3 minutes), serve. The rest between roasting and searing will help tenderness as well…
