Chris' 4 month dry aged.

4 month dry aging is crazy, it's almost like it's been cured.

Chris: aka proof of life.

And getting slaughtered in Wingspan.

Did better against Sue the next day, still lost by 18 points.

Ox tail from Versailles.

Celebrating Independence Day weekend with board games and grilling. Chris brought some of his crazy four month dry aged (so dry/dense/intense it was basically cured!) to go with the Snake River Farms Gold Grade New York steaks I supplied. Portabello mushrooms and asparagus for the rest. Pre-board-games snacks were appetizers from Sichuan Impression 'cause I didn't want to rely on just Ruffles All Dressed and Lay's Ketchup potato chips.

Next day-- Fourth of July proper-- was more board games and dinner from Versailles, 'cause Sue was craving Cuban food rather than more grilling.
