Obey Hellas.


Southern Greek town.

Downtown Athens.

I love these photos! They remind me why I invited Beer to post here...Coming to this site allows me to see some world.
I was in Long Beach over the weekend, and visited the site from my phone..I was so bummed out to see the negative comments about some of the bikes Beer posted..This is my friend from halfway around the world..Why be a bitch, and bitch. If you dont like something on this site click somewhere else..

I look forward to Nelson's Off Topics, Scott's Albums, Mochi's wonderful world, and the few photos the others do from their corners of life...as Im sure others do as well.

I plan to add more people to this site as time moves. You will not, and can not like every picture..Please be respectful to the contributors they are doing this for the same love i do it for.....it gives us all a chance to just simply look at something that might be neat from somewhere else on the map.

Short Ribs

It was Saturday. My other half was in NYC hanging out with some friends... good time to have a couple of the guys over to eat. I went to Gonzalez Northgate Market which is 1 block from my pad.

The meat department in this place is exceptionally good. There's always a line so I know the meat isn't old, it keeps moving out. I see them cutting it up like crazy all day; they can't keep up. This place has everything from beef tripe to oxtails to ground pork to carne asada to short ribs!
Did someone say short ribs? I did. Ever since I went to Korean BBQ with CantStayJose, I been wanting more Korean food. So I got the short ribs. I wanted to make them a little more Hawaiian style though, like I've had them back home.
This isn't really a recipe or anything and it's kind of a lazy man way, but it works and its good. I cut up the short ribs first into blocks like this. One bone per cut:
Throw them all into a crock pot. Set to Low. Then find a can/bottle of left over beer.
I think this Heineken was here for a few months, ever since we had a canoe club party. Pour one of them into the crock pot. Nothing else. If you're a greaser or whatever its OK, you can use Pabst:

Leave them things alone after that. Don't touch it. I said don't touch! I usually leave them in for like 3 or 4 hours until I go and flip them over. If you want them to cook all day while you're at work, fuck it, go for it. It'll all fall off the bone anyway if you leave them alone for 8 to 10 hours:
Oh shit, I had to go and touchy-touchy again even though I said not to. It's alright because I just added some chopped garlic, about 3 or 4 of them. Everything needs garlic. I rub garlic on base gaskets when I do top ends. I put garlic on my phone when it gets bad reception. Everything gets better with garlic, especially Hawaiian Style Kalbi Short Ribs:

I dont have time to make my own sauce. I just use this one. Hawaii made! After the beef looks done, I just take out all the meat, pour out all the liquid, then put the meat back in and cook it back on Low with the sauce for another 45min to an hour:

Oh my, there's some hungry people that showed up. My critics are Dustin, Vince and my co-host CantStayJose. I started them with some tossed greens and creamy sesame dressing. I put some salmon in there too that I flaked up. Also added some chopped olives:
We had some Japanese gyoza (potstickers) after the salad with some simple wasabi and Aloha Brand soy sauce for dipping. I was so busy eating I only have this shot of the finished ribs:
Hawaiian Style Korean Ribs were served with my special sticky white rice (I make rice better than you Hater shut up stupid), some mixed veggies like corn, soy beans and carrots out of a bag. Sauce over the rice makes it oh-soo-much better. See, look! they can barely pay attention because they're busy eating:
The ribs were killer. We all went or seconds. Good thing I bought 12 strips of beef. I bought extra so I could make something out of the leftovers (coming soon):
Then we all went to a bar and I beat Jose at shuffle board 17 to 1.





The End!
