Other industry-specific subs have rules for who qualified to post i.e. you have to be working in that profession to create a post. Should this sub follow suit?
The majority of the posts seem to be meat identification questions.
The majority of comments seem to be people calling everything steatosis.
Someone made a comment the other day using a very specific industry term, one defined by the Meat Buyer's Guide, and I corrected the misuse of the term and got downvoted to oblivion.
The header of this sub says it's a place for butchers to talk about butcher stuff. But is it?
Come on over, fellers. Food's almost ready.
Coppa steaks. Sausage. Onions.
By the by, if you've never had a Coppa steak, you're missing out. Sometimes called Pork Collar or Pork Neck. It's the large, cylindrical muscle group of a Pork Butt.
Extremely authentic Spaghetti all'Amatraciana.
Some kind of generic smoked sausage, idk. Half an onion sautéed in the oil rendered out from the sausage. San Marzano tomatoes. Lil starchy water from the noodles. Black pepper. Dried Thai chilis. Pecorino Romano. Pepper-Jack cheese.
Anyway, it was delicious. Bone apple tea!
Anybody else wake up to find some fresh bodywork on their truck? No? Just me? Nice.
What's the chance someone knows anything about a Winchester 1758 sharpening steel/honing rod?
Marked Winchester Trade Mark Made in USA 1758.
The font used for Winchester is exactly the same as the firearms and ammo brand.
[40M] Burly Boy Beltless Barbell Back Squat, Butt Wink, and Back Pain.
This is nothing other than a video of me squatting.
I haven't lifted since 2017, where I was following a (mostly) powerlifting routine. I've been back in the gym since October doing some kickboxing/Muay Thai, and lifting (mostly bro splits) the last two months. I did squat last week just to get a feel for the groove, and that was literally the first time I put a barbell on my back in ~8/9 years.
Without getting too into it, I injured my back in 2009. That injury has caught up to me, and I'll most likely be getting surgery towards the end of this year (bulging disc at L5/S1, tons of stenosis, bilateral nerve pain in my pelvis, radiculopathy down my right leg, etc.). I know I have a ton of imbalances and compensations going on. And my butt wink is terrible. But oh well. I fortunately don't really have what we'd typically call "lower back pain," outside of the pain around my old injury.
I need to build some strength both overall and within my core before surgery, and I need to lose some L.B.'s.
245x3, and I'm pretty happy with it.
