Man I'm sorry BUT I don't miss Rob .. He never added anything but B/S .. nOW BILL THAT'S ANOTHER sTORY .. BILL EVEN KNEW HOW TO MAKE ... SAUERKRAUT.

I miss Rob, Rob loved to get people going and had smartest guy in the room syndrome but underneath that he was s good guy, he did not take being an asshole personal he loved the argument for argument sake. He did not believe half the crap he argues about, he just argues because he loves to, that's why he was a lawyer. I loved seeing if I could outdo Bill for Rob "Merit badges".

That being said, I do miss Bill's wit, I was just posting something the other day and thinking this is where Bill chim's in, it was a perfect opening for his commentary. Bill was one of the reasons I became a member of this site, his humor and mine are very similar.


Now as for Sauerkraut, I can make it, part of my dads family are austro-dutch so I learned a thing or two about it. You have to wash it, the germans used vinegar as a preservative not as a flavoring, it does flavor it but they don't eat it with all that vinegar in it, so you wash it, you dice up an apple and an onion and add to it, you boil it in chicken stock and then you take some short ribs and boil them in it until the meat falls off the bone then you pull out the ribs and pull all the meat apart and that's how you make Sauerkraut.

The original recipe that I used to use did not, but I ate some of the best sauerkraut I ever had at an East German ladies restaurant and I noticed that it had these little bits of meat in it. I finally asked here what it was and she told me that they boil ribs in the kraut after they butcher the majority of the meat off of them. From my understanding the East Germans made their Kraut more like the Polish Bigos than traditional German Kraut, probably a product of the wall.

Well not all of us! :p


Well thank you Sir.
I do agree I have never been on a site with cooler people.
To echo one of our cb/eb brothers, "I have never been on a site where I wanted to meet so many of the members"
Ya'know Lowbush, what struck me was how much we looked alike.
My wife works at the same place I do. She saw you and laughed, saying, "My God he dresses exactly like you, he has the same hair line, and is almost the exact same size, oh and I know you were digging his truck"....
I laughed and said he's an owner at Holopaw Estates too.
She rolled her eyes and said, "You eb guys are all alike"

Yup I guess we are.....

.. Funny this Sauerkraut side track I created in this post... SORRY. But the funny part is My Mother was one of 7 ladies head of Texas Home Mech .. for about 30 years . She thought she was a better cook than JULIA CHILDS .. But some times she didn't like Julia ... Jealous I think .. Her FAMILY Made home made sauerkraut as she grew up. ... 1930's Maybe Sourkraut & Possum wasn't good.
... But when mother fixed it .. She boiled wienies for about 10 minutes . Then she dumped a jar of store bought cold sourkraut on top of it. That's how I grew up eating it .
.............
..... After I married my Wife .. She cooks it in a crock pot .. Store bought but with the wienies and she cooks it for about 8 hours . It's better the 2nd day than the 1st.
.... I love to get grand kids at about 9 years old ... for a weekend ... Talk up sauerkraut & wienies ..then put it on and let them smell it all night cooking ... They will hardly taste it. She & I get small helping & go back for 3rd or 4th helpings. Grand Kids think we're crazy.

For me it's the people, the posts, information and laughs... I've met most of the local-ish guys over the last few years and those have been some of the best times!

I've met a bunch of great people locally from this site; to mention a few; Miikee, Ahansen (Andrew), Jsmall (Jaromy), Arsenio and Tom Dummer, the "Bushman" (Chris) and a whole bunch more (I know I'm leaving a whole bunch more out, Dan, Mark(s), Kevin(s), Matt... the list is freaking long) through networking with them and finding even more locals; There are (I so discovered) a dozen+ early broncos within a few miles of me that I never knew about. These guys have tons more knowledge and experience than I that have helped me when my only other alternative was to seek a local shop instead of getting my learn-on and saving untold mountains of $$$s. Thank you all and Jon at CB.com!!! :cool:

Here's a few pics of my local bronco buds.
