inBest Friday I have had in a long time at the shop
Three steers in one day from one rancher, that is a solid score. I had a Tuesday like that last fall with a pair of Angus from up north. The fat cap on the strips just peeled off like butter, barely had to touch them with the knife. I swear it comes down to how they are handled before they even get to you. If the animal is calm and the cooling is done right, the connective tissue lets go way easier.

inMy sister-in-law said she never washes her cast iron with soap, and I had to ask why.
It's funny how many of those old rules we blindly follow just because someone we trusted said so. That kitchen wisdom gets passed down like gospel, but half the time it's based on outdated tools or techniques nobody questions anymore. Probably applies to a lot more than just cookware, if you sit and think about it.

inNgl, my spot welder just died mid-job on a 2018 Civic quarter panel
Oh man, "finished the weld with a borrowed gun" hits way too close to home. I had my tumbler seize up right in the middle of a big job once, had to finish with this beat up old one that left all these scratches on the brass. It's the worst when you finally get a rhythm going and then bam, tool decides to take a vacation. Hope you didn't burn through too much extra time on that quarter panel.
