We ALWAYS have plenty of Dilly Bars, available in your choice of four delicious flavors. :thumb:

Anyone ever get a Dilly for a TD they called? I'm feeling lucky!

Only the esteemed and revered keeper of the Dilly Bars knows the answer to this...

"This", whatever it "is", is getting confusing already!

Can I cook 2 ribeyes in my thick or thicker? I know the rules only call for 1 in my thick or thicker, but Tasha might want to eat, too :noidea:

Anyone know where I can buy a thick? Depending on price, I might go with a thicker...

 

[Shagdog]

Peeps, if you calculate the total thickness of your steak and divide it by the circumference of your plate and multiply that by the size of your potato (in millimeters) you will have your answer. Obviously, if the number is less than the number of votes you received in the first throwdown you ever entered in a month with an E in it, you are fine with 2 steaks, given they are from the left side of the cow, and it's a Thursday. Hope this clears things up.

What's a ribeye? Do we need to include the packaging.
Edit- What I meant to ask was what determines it visibly, can we just trust the non-butchers have labeled it correctly.

:doh: based on this, I have to cook (14) 9" thick, 4" diameter ribeyes! Maybe I didn't do that right....

 

[Shagdog]

You forgot to carry the 6

 

[peeps]

You forgot to carry the 6
