Hmmmm. Sounds FISHY. We'll just see what's going on here, once Monday arrives.

Hmm? Just asking a bunch of questions I had saved up about cooking.

I love cast-iron cookware.

Strangely, you are the second person today to approach me, out of nowhere, about cast-iron cookware.

What the fuck is going on.

It's cool if I use cast iron cookware for these, right? I used to be against them, but honestly, I finally tried it the other day to make some eggs. They're great!

I have seen people order these, I think. I think the Milker has tried them out here. Too bad you keep calling him an idiot.

I didn't mean it. Sorry everyone. Let us come together over a delicious grilled jalapeno.

THINGS I HAVE LEARNED since starting to eat chile toreados:

1. The tip (heheh) of the chile is the hottest part. Conceptually it makes sense, since all of the ribs meet down there, and the ribs are where the heat lies, but holy crap, it was never demonstrated to me so clearly as when I worked my way through my first.

2. There is a huge range of hotness where jalapenos are concerned. Just to prove the point, I ate two of them raw tonight. The first one provided barely a tickle, more reminiscent of a green bell pepper than a hot chile. Then I tried the second one and was whining like a bitch for 15 minutes. Amazing!

I forget what the point of this was. Zerg OP!!!!!

Will Olive Oil do? I have olive oil.

Sure. I mean, it-- no, sure. Whatever you got.

SIGH okay I'll get into more detail but whatever: Olive oil burns at a lower temperature, so I generally use it as a flavorin' device at medium temperatures, rather than a high-intensity cooking oil, but I don't see any reason why it won't work for a quick roast over a medium grill.

I mentioned to my wife that we should buy a separate gas container so that (gasp) we would always have a full spare one and she acted like that was the craziest thing she had ever heard. I also mentioned it to a co-worker and he made the same face my wife made. I thought I was on to something but I have been convinced otherwise.
That's insane. You always want a spare propane tank.

(I never have one, but I always want one.)

Flack, show your wife this thread. Let me speak for all of us when I say:

1) Hi! And thanks again for letting me and Vark stay at your home when we visit.

2) So it's pretty much been decided that Flack is going to have one Rhino gas tank for every pizza cutter if you're digging my ditch here?????

3) Seriously, thanks for letting us stay over. I realize we don't always make it easy.

Chile toreados. The funny part is, I learned about this because on our way to Colorado, Kathy and I stopped at Bobcat Bite, home of the world's greatest hamburger, and I'm not kidding about that and the guy next to us said "and lemme get one of the grilled jalapenos."

W-- wh-- what did he mean? He wanted jalapenos on his burger? Okay, that's fine. I guess. But wh--

And then they brought him his burger, and then a little plate with a single grilled jalapeno -- chile toreado -- on it. He'd take a bite of burger, then a bite of the jalapeno, and I've never seen a man happier. I wanted to be him.

And now that I know the secret of grilling a goddamn jalapeno and putting salt on it... I AM HIM.

Those people must not operate grills. I want to get right in their. GRILL!!!!!

That's the best idea I have ever heard. You have invented no-fault grilling. It's only another fifty bucks for another tank or whatever. If it has become a problem and you grill all the time - go for it! Plus you get the deposit back. It's MONEY in the BANK.

Man, it makes me want to go grill that tijuana fart or whatever Ben told me to eat.

I had not even seen it before!

OK. I need to get gas for my grill. I was using Rhino gas before, which is apparently not boiled Rhino. What the fuck was I even grilling for, if another species should not suffer? But whatever. I'll try this.

Gimme this weekend to PREP.

by **Flack** » Fri May 17, 2013 6:24 pm

Never had one, but I do remember from Spanish class that toreados are bullfighters. Do you feel like you have lost a fight with a bull after eating one? OLE!

The sysop does not respond.

by **pinback** » Fri May 17, 2013 5:31 pm

Down south here some restaurants serve "chile toreados". I'm giving you this recipe. Mainly I'm giving the sysop this recipe.

I want him to love this.

I love it dearly, and it causes me the most pain I've ever experienced in my life. Kinda like getting married, huh, fellas? LOL! Ha ha ha!

On a grill or on a pan:

Douse a jalapeno in vegetable oil, and then put it in the pan or on the grill, and cook/turn until blackened/blistered all over.

Then put on a plate and sprinkle with salt.

Boom, there it is.

I want you to love these, sysop.
