I once told someone I was from Portland when I’m actually from Portland, Maine.

Ngl I called out a guy at a bar once for lying about meeting Beyonce.

Stubbornly stuck with steel for years. Aluminum shoes made my horse way more confident on wet turf. Wish I had switched sooner, it's a no brainer.

Man I swear this whole foiling thing is just one of those pieces of "wisdom" that gets passed down without anyone questioning it, like how everyone used to insist you gotta sear a steak to "lock in the juices." It's the same pattern you see everywhere, people cling to techniques that worked on some random setup thirty years ago even though the equipment and science have completely moved on. For me it was realizing that a sharp knife makes way more difference than any trick I learned from an old head, lol. Once I stopped treating their advice like gospel and started testing things myself, my cooks got way more consistent. Foil is fine for a pellet smoker or an oven if you're braising, but on an offset where you want that crunchy bark it's basically sabotaging yourself.

15 minutes seems short honestly, my derm told me 20 at least for the lymphatic drainage to kick in.
