AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
let's slow down now, not get any lofty ideas of inclusion
It'll be blackberry and filbert based. You'll love it!
mmmm mmmm tastes like privilege
I'm sure at your barbecues where you actually roast pigs yourself you like to talk down to everyone else too.
They probably enjoy the food enough to put up with it for an extended period of time.
Oh my dear alazull,
the meat and the smoke is only part of barbecue. Shit talking is as much a part of barbecue culture as the sauce. Stuffing your face with meat while exclaiming how much better yours is is standard practice.
YOU ARE NOT READY
Ah.
I'm glad that you mansplained barbecue to me.
It sounds obnoxious, but at least the foods good enough to make up for the company.

I wonder who gets credit for the overstuffed sushi rolls with shit piled on them. Those are distinctly American.
Hopefully we can split that with CA at least.

He's in Washington. The Pacific NW has no dignity when it comes to BBQ.
there are only a couple of places in the whole seattle area that are even halfway decent, it's sad
Uh...
My friends make really good brisket and pork at their place here in Anacortes.
It turns out people from not Washington have slowly been spreading the good word.
I've been burned before alazull, don't get my hopes up
I've been to places run by transplants where I suspect they were run out of their home state on a rail for their subpar barbecue
They just opened a trailer to do barbecue and have refined their technique.
One is from Wisconsin, the other Florida. They make it work.
It's cheaper than traveling out of state?
But real talk I think what you're seeing all over the Northwest is that people are actually getting interested in real barbecue, and therefore the quality is slowly improving.
Hell I'm thinking we're about ten years out before we develop our own style of barbecue.
At the very least we have no excuse not to like, Americanize Korean bbq

So I've been shopping my résumé around to a few companies after the office up here closed.
One wants to know if $106k sounds acceptable.
uhhhhhhhhh hm yeah that sounds nice.
depends for what
For me.
(I'm an engineer working at a refinery with 5 years of experience so it's not outrageous or anything but maybe programjunkie will consider eating me and that's all one can really hope for in life.)
If you buy me dinner first. :razz:
(Listen, Mr. Thousandaire, 106K / year is reasonable and appropriate pay for a highly skilled person. Millions into hundreds of millions is not)

I just checked google. There is a Pacific Northwest barbecue association (PNWBA) and their logo is a totem pole with cow, pig, and chicken.
Smoked chicken and fish is a huge thing around here.
And there have been people from Washington that have won awards at competitions and the like.
I'm saying that if you looked at the interest in barbecue ten years ago to now, it's gotten big. People are actually asking what wood you use, and understand that barbecue sauce exists outside of KC Masterpiece. They understand that you grill hot dogs and hamburgers, you don't really barbecue them.
Maybe in another ten, you'll have people who aren't happy just aping other styles. Although yeah do expect blackberry barbecue sauce to be a thing.

That reminds me of Caveman Kitchen down in Kent. They've been smoking chicken for years and it's not really bbq, just kinda their own thing.
I haven't been there in so long I should hit them up.

Feral's reply reminded me, and I may have mentioned this before, but the music for the original Sims does weird shit to my head
it's like a team of researchers subjected hundreds of subjects to bizarre experiments for years in order to produce the platonic ideal of what you expect to hear when you step into a small office, like a title office or a travel agency from back when those existed, in the back of a strip mall in a suburb that is still growing and has not yet gone to seed
i cannot hear it and not think of my childhood, when I could look south out of my grandparents' bedroom window and see a fleet of RE/MAX balloons holding station over some new development a few miles south of me
I have no clue what is or isn't authentic sushi. My 8yr old loves California rolls from sushi boat. And we eat out with the in laws at a sit down place called Wasabi. Kid loves that, too.

*shrug* I don't mind talking about food, and I'll definitely acknowledge that the Northwest has a ways to go to being better at barbecue.
Just y'know maybe next time a little more discussion a little less being obnoxious?

Unsurprisingly, California rolls are an Americanism.
Japanese is mostly nigiri and more simple rolls.
The elaborate rolls like I posted are usually American.
They all delicious so it's not like it matters.

Authenticity is a trap.
There's a Mexican place here in town that has "San Diego's best burrito!" As a tag line.
Which is great and all, but this ain't San Diego. San Diego is 1300 miles that way :arrow:

This guy has been working around the Valley lately, and just started doing a regular night here in Anacortes at my friend's bar.
And from the sounds of things the idea is that sushi in America is at least trying to be authentic. You'll rarely find someone who has completed a real apprenticeship, but they do understand that the rice is more important than the fish, that the fish has an ideal way to be served.
But then again they aren't afraid to make presentations and flavors that their customers enjoy, and that's the sushi that got people to get over the whole, "Oh, it's raw fish on rice how gross!" attitude.
I mean that was an episode of Doug back in the day, how he was so worried he was going to die when his grandma took him to sushi.

I've never really liked the authentic/non authentic thing.
Food gets altered by the environment it's made in. Food evolves. That doesn't make it inauthentic.

I disagree, slightly. You are right in that authentic does not mean better. But if I want an authentic Jambalaya then Applebee's Jambalaya Pasta is going to disappoint.

I am just not a fan of the overwhelming flavors of US sushi. I prefer the more traditional sushi myself. That is why I go for. But good for others enjoying whatever.

Sometimes I'm eating food and it's like "this food is inauthentic" and then the food disappears because it was illusory.
