Pot roast is a different cut from brisket. The roast comes from the rump end and the brisket comes from the rib section just behind the shoulder. It has traditionally been thought to be a worthless cut, but IMO, it's one of the best non-steak cuts, especially if it's prepared well. You can cook a pot roast the same way you cook a brisket; that is to say, slow roasting, or you can cook a pot roast in a dutch oven with water and veggies. Slow roasting brisket is what gives you the tender pink insides and not brown all the way through. A general rule of thumb is to slow roast a brisket at 225 degrees for 1-1/2 to 2 hours per pound. Also, the way you slice a brisket makes a difference in how it looks. A brisket is supposed to be sliced cross-grain, not with grain. Roast, same thing. It could be the same temperature inside (rare, medium rare, well done, etc), but it will look different if it's sliced differently. If you want a brisket (or roast) that's pink inside, it should reach an internal temperature of 160 degrees while slow roasting, and you should let it sit for a while before slicing. As for steaks, the good cuts (rib eye slabs, sirloin, porterhouse slabs, and all combinations derived therefrom like strips, T-bones, and filets) should not be slow roasted; they should be grilled or broiled (they can be pan-fried, too) depending on your temperature preference. A prime rib roast (from what the rib eyes are sliced) should be rolled in kosher salt and pepper, tied, and slow roasted. Mojeaux (miztrniceguy's wife)

wonder if there's a place like that here in MO....perhaps Adam-Ondi-Ahman. maybe when we picnic there tomorrow we will see a nice spot

better than a dumb-aleck

maybe its on purpose

how far would i go?.....hmmmm.... After being a retail manager for around 20 years i have finally gotten out of it. I have found a position that doesn't require me to work on Sundays. So many times over the years I was taken advantage of because I said I would work Sundays "in an emergency", and having it turn into every Sunday. This by a GM who was LDS, too. When I quit my job as a c-store manager, I was off work 3 months, partly because I decided I would not consider a job that included Sundays. Now that I am there every week, I have recently become a Sunday School teacher. I enjoy it, but find it difficult sometimes not to stray from the lesson to give these 16 yr olds some life lessons. Overall, I did not like having to work on Sunday. When I was inactive it didnt bother me. After returning to church, I accepted it as necessary as this was what i did...i was a retail manager so long, and i dont have any kind of a trade or degree. I feel blessed that i have finally found something with good pay and lots of potential that gives me enough time for my family. It's nice having 40 hr weeks instead of 70-80, and still make a decent wage and great benefits. As for the part about stealing food, etc....I know i have recources available, and hope I am never in that position. I will say that getting married and having kids changes a lot of what somone would do . Miztrniceguy

football, right?

i left, too

In business or government work, whoever comes up with the brilliant idea needs to take ownership of it. Right Ray? i have registered the idea of "PC and Ray having lunch" with the US Copyright office. therefore, if you do have lunch, royalties will be due at a rate of 10% of total bill, incl tip.

When I pray I sometimes call him simply "Father" or "Daddy"--"Abba, Father, deep within my soul I cry..." I probably use "the" because I have done a fair amount of formal writing in my lifetime, and it's a habit. There ain't no such thing as a free lunch. free?....ya didnt think i was buying didja?

Ray and PC oughta get together for lunch

or in other words....not right now or in other words ....maybe someday or in other words....btw...i'm just having fun Yeah, you're just a fun-gi. well, i do tend to grow on people...lol

i'm here, too

or in other words....not right now or in other words ....maybe someday or in other words....btw...i'm just having fun

i'm not here

so they finally have "revealed" what causes p c?

if you are a shoe man, i think some of your best friends should be people with feet.

one of the problems is the "stigma" of not being a Returned Missionary. When I was single(just under 4 years ago) i would be chatting in an LDS chatroom and get PM's all the time whose first question was "RM?"...not even a hello first when they found out i was not, they didnt even want to talk anymore....their loss...i'm happily married and it wasn't important to my wife...we plan to serve a mission together after our children are grown

quote "3. Enduring to the end. Calvinists argue that this is automatic for the Elect. Arminians says we must "struggle daily to work out our salvation with fear and trembling." Most LDS seem to side with us Arminians. In a sense, it matters not. Those so-called Calvinists who do not "endure to the end," would be deemed as never having truly converted. So, ultimately, all Christians do believe in doing so--we just describe the how and why differently." quote I'm a Calvinist...he and his tiger, Hobbes, just make me laugh like crazy

seriously tho...i'm glad there has been some good in the midst of all your troubles

congrats--i'm assuming you mean commendation, rather than accommodation. altho if they are giving you a place to stay, hey that's great , too!! :)

Kuma, I agree much with you. I've been investigating and attending the LDS church for 9 months. Within that time, God knows how sincerely I desired wisdom and answers. He gave me wisdom with miracles. I am a very strong believer of asking and receiving, seeking and finding, knocking and having the door opened. If we seek sincerely in our hearts with intent (to do as what we learn of) he will find a way for us. I am the first in my family (and relatives?) to accept the Gospel of the LDS church. Nine months ago, due to personal reasons (If you folks only knew the circumstances), I seeked and prayed for wisdom and guidance. ( we will all have a chance to receive the Gospel of Jesus Christ at some point) I know I've never been more sincere and at such a needy moment in my life. I was lost! ...Within the next day, some of my prayer was answered. And the following Sunday, I ended up at the LDS Church (after attending a different church earlier that morning). It was that day that I got the answer to the question throughout my life: How do I know if there's a God. (BTW, I'm now 30) I always thought it was a self-fulling prophecy. (If you force yourself to believe, at some point, you will.) I was wrong. I now know that there is NO such thing as coincidences and that there's a purpose for everything. Within the last nine months, I've received so many miracles and blessings. I've also learned of why things happened the way they did. (If only I knew the end from the begining, I would know why.) I learned it was all for my benefit. Gods knows what's best for us, even if we don't know or agree with it at the time. I'll mention just a couple of the many miracles and extreme things that've happened to me in this short time. - I had a prayer answered within half an hour and the chances were less than 1000 to one, it was catered for exactly what I needed (even more than I had known at the time). This was after seeking the advice of a life time LDS member friend who I've known since the 1st grade. I called him long distance to speak about the painful situation that I was in. He told me to pray after getting of the phone. I prayed and God knew the urgency of my need. I called my friend back afterwards and told him about the miracle. He was so amazed! I was also so thrilled. The following month, I gave my testimony in church. - After speaking against Satan and correcting the awlful things (I would never dare say) my (non-believing) friend said about God and praising of Satan, I had a feeling that something would happen that night. After going to bed that night, I was attacked. It was something I had never experience to that extreme before. And I immediately knew what it was. I commanded it to leave in the name of Jesus Christ. It immediately left. But right afterwards, I couldn't move or speak. I sensed a dark presence. I was in that state for some time. I prayed in my mind and thought of the light of heaven. It let off to a point where I could say something. I again, this time loudly, commanded whatever it was to leave. It left. I jumped up, turned on the lights and began reading the scriptures. The lights remained on until the morning. After speaking to some members of my ward with experience in these matters, I learned of why there were TWO evil spirits that attacked me. I later had myself and our house blessed. I've never felt anything else in my home since. (Interesting thing is that we had the house blessed before in the past by a priest of a different church or belief. Obviously, he didn't have the proper Preisthood Authority.) After looking through the pages in this thread (and I did learn a lot through the readings), it really does prove to me that "contention" is not of the Lord. (I often fail and end up contending with others at times) Time after time, I know that no one can change another person's belief unless the Holy Spirit does so and it is that time for that person. We all need to seek for ourselves the truth through prayer, being humble, grateful and most importantly (in my opinion) with intent. God knows how sincere our prayers are. If you don't mean it, it's as if you didn't pray at all. I know how perfect our Heavenly Father is. I see it so often. I know that all who have the desire will be given a chance at some point. I also know that God is litterally our spiritual father because he loves us so much that he wants us to be just like him, to be perfect at some point. What father wouldn't want the best for his kids? This may sound strange to many, but I am not baptized yet and I'm not officially a member of the LDS Church yet. God knows how much I desire to be baptized. But there are reasons/purposes, that I currently may not know. I just know that the closer I get to God, the more the adversary tries to stop me. At the same time, I've seen opportunities that God creates when there were none. I'm currently struggling to do all that is needed. I've not prayed and read the scriptures as much as I need. The Holy Spirit testifies to me often. I need to overcome the doubts and temptations of Satan. Baptism, something that many take for granted, can become so difficult to those that desire it so much. I know the joy of having the Gospel. And I've prayed often that Heavenly Father would give me wisdom so that I may be in service of others. I'm so grateful for all the blessings that I've received in such a short time. The comforting thing is that I know God will never give me something that I can't handle. If I do what is right, there will only be more blessings to come. In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen. Amen
