Bought a grocery store flank steak to practice before I cook that SRF Wagyu one. Kosher salt dry brine and seasoned with @meathead Mrs O'Leary's Cow Crust. The @hastybakegrills can't turn out a bad steak.






Hell yeah, Katz’s is pure deli poetry in motion. That hand-sliced pastrami—warm, pepper-crusted, marbled just right—melting into rye with a swipe of mustard is the gold standard. The corned beef? Juicy, tender, zero gristle. And you’re right, the old-school carvers still sneak you that little warm sample while they’re slicing. It’s not just food, it’s theater with a side of nostalgia. The lines are chaos, the tables are sticky, the pickles are perfect, and the matzo ball soup could fix a hangover from 1943. Nothing else in NYC even plays in the same league. Enjoy it while the magic lasts, my friend. Some things are worth the pilgrimage.

I'm making pulled pork tomorrow which I've done many times. This time I wanted to try making slaw to go with it. Used the recipe from @meathead's book "Meathead: The Science of Great Barbecue and Grilling" and y'all... best slaw ever! It really is like you get from the deli.
