Keeping it simple for a late breakfast… 3 eggs over medium with a pile of cheese served on top of two almond flour and cheese biscuits. Generous quantities of Tabasco

Ribeye pan fried and bacon nectar and drowned in butter with scrambled eggs (one extra yoke for every whole egg plus a little HWC) and oven baked home cured/smoked bacon.

I was feeling like avocado toast this morning. I didn’t feel like bread, but I wanted something like it. So, I improvised. The base is a grass-fed burger (from frozen section of Trader Joe’s). On top of that is a small avocado mixed with some garlic salt. On top of it all is a fried egg! OMG so gooood. FYI, the burger was seasoned with pepper and oak smoked salt from the 7 Salts of the Earth Gift set (also from Trader Joe’s, a holiday item).

I stopped at the store on the way home today. (Must stop buying meat and use all the yummies still in the freezer!!!) I purchased some beef rib bones separated from their rib-eye steaks. Slow braising those now. I just love these. Not a great deal, but they are nice and fatty, and the bones make a great broth.
I also purchased on close-out, some bacon, and a small fatty pork roast (for chilie verde). And best of all, two turkey thighs. Tomorrow I’m going to sous vide the thighs. I’ve been wanting to do that since I got my new ‘machine’. I predict great things.

Yesterday broke a 6 day fast with this plate (after 3 rashers of cold bacon that had been sitting in the fridge enticing me whenever I opened the door over the previous 6 days)
Sous vide pork belly 22 hours then grilled (UK) or broiled (US) with butter salami cabbage

So if the broiled in the US = grilled in the UK, what do they call the US version of grilled in the UK?

Kind of. BBQ in the US refers more to the style of grilling/smoking/cooking or can refer to the finished product. You can make ribs in the oven, drench them in sauce and still call it BBQ in some areas (not saying I condone or agree, just saying it happens), and varies regionally. BBQ in Texas is different than BBQ in Memphis, Carolina, or St Louis.
“Grilling” in the US is mostly synonymous with open flame cooking. At home, that would usually be on a gas, charcoal or wood fired outdoor grill.

OK and in the UK that would definitely be called barbecue either gas or charcoal so there we go a US grill is a UK barbecue… now then anyting else we need to sort out… fannies, butts and arses anyone?

Well since you mentioned it…
If Britain isn’t ruled by a monarch anymore, why is everyone still so interested in the royal family? And if they don’t rule anymore, what DO they actually do?
I’m even more confused by Americans that are still obsessed. My wife insisted on watching the royal wedding and cried the whole time. I slept through it.
Not that it’s just a British thing, I still haven’t been able to figure out why anyone gives a rats ass about the Kardashian family either.

I’m not sure putting the royal family into the same
context as the Kardashians is going to win you any friends on the other side of the pond.

I’m not saying the royals are AS irrelevant as the Kardashian’s… yeah, that’s probably not helping. I’m going to shut up and go eat more limp bacon.

found this chart for oil smoke point and ratio of omega 6 to omega 3 (1:1 is ideal, basically the lower the first number, the better.) I know some of these oils are just too crazy expensive to put in a fryer, but other ones should work fine.

They are largely ceremonial (though do theoretically offer a constitutional check & balance in an emergency) but they do that better than pretty much anyone in the world. There’s so many of them that you can get great coverage from local to International events with various levels of royal. They are a great tourist attraction (see Royal Wedding) and generate far more income than they receive in taxpayer money (only for the main royals for their “official” jobs). They have a duty of service (now, not historically) that far surpasses the temporary and partisan responsibilities of politicians. They provide commonality and unification for the Commonwealth (a mutual co-operation alliance of former British colonies - except yours) where they have their own governments but share a ceremonial head in the Queen. It provides conceptual unity without impinging on anyone’s real democracy. With all of that, there is a lot of republican feeling in Britain that ebbs and flows with how popular the Royals are vs. the scandals that pop up now and again. I think they are at recent high point right now, now that Wills and Harry are both firing well. Historically (recent rather than ancient), they have been useful too. George VI (King’s Speech/Darkest Hour) was instrumental in giving Churchill enough support to see him through… well the darkest hour of recent British history. His abdicated brother would have lobbied for suing for peace much earlier… thanks Wallace Simpson for taking one for the old country! They have taken the mind of the nation off bad times e.g. Liz II’s wedding in '47 and coronation in '53 to give the nation things other than post war rationing and the “what the hell, we won that war, WTF?” feelings to think about. Even Charles and Di’s match, wedding, kids were delivered to distract from the worst post-war recession and the unstoppable de-industrialization of Britain.
I am also a happy atheist (at least happy with that choice) and was expecting this Royal Wedding to be as glitzy and empty as the last (few) but I was surprised at how symbolically important it was (or at least I and many others found it). Maybe not for the world but for Britain… it brought some degree of racial integration to a place we might never expect to arrive (much to Phil the Greek’s surprise), that Oprah is also royalty, that royalty is just another form of celebrity and can be used for good or ill and that the older generation of our Royals are out of touch with modernity but there is hope for some of the younger ones. Most of Britain even started out liking the strange American bishop who provided more passion in one sermon that the entire CofE provides in a year (even though very few Brits go to church or believe in sky fairies), before he went on too long and it turned to cringing.
I have always been a republican (anti-royal, not US GOP) in principle since I am no fan of inherited privilege nor their massive accumulation of wealth, which while in the “public” domain can not be liquidated to anyone’s benefit (unless we liquidate them first… it’s been done!). If I were given a vote I’d probably still vote to get rid of them BUT I would no longer be bothered if the majority voted to keep them where they are. The practicalities of their current benefits and whatever placebo effect they have in making people a little happier in this difficult world is not to be underestimated… nor are the Kardashians

Ribeye… just pan fried but pretty good, with sautéed mushrooms and Hughes’ low carb BBQ sauce. Not OMAD but most of my calories. Followed with Sugar Free Raspberry jello/jelly with raspberries in it, with chocolate whipped cream… almost perfect keto meal for me
