Thread question: what's the best way to cook those Kirkland brats? Boil in beer to get up to temp and then finish on grill? What beer would be good to use?

I don't know about better, but sometimes imitation crab is exactly what's called for.

Best way to cook is pretty much what you said. Boil in beer for a few minutes (don't overcook!) and finish them on the grill. You can use any beer that's not super bitter (no IPA's, extra stouts, etc).

The frozen honey walnut shrimp is bad and I am sad.

Also the acai bowl is gone, which most of you will rejoice over, but I was really looking forward to one for dinner.

Instead...bad honey walnut shrimp.

It's normally pretty good but definitely a small serving thing (like coconut shrimp). The sauce was disgustingly mayonnaise-y though instead of like a sesame-honey glaze like it ought to me.

Imitation crab needs a name change, it's just good for what it is and obviously not crab. People wouldn't look down on 'cod strips' the same way.

Yeah, I really didn’t like the sauce that came with that shrimp.

Last time I just grilled them over medium-low heat, and they came out perfect. When I do the beer bath I used Fat Tire since a case of it is cheap, and it goes well with sausages.

I like the idea of honey walnut shrimp, but every time I've tried it has been that same nasty sauce like you're talking about.

Sometimes they have little tubs of fresh crab meat and it's excellent for easy crab cakes with no effort. The expiry date is always crazy far away, they must nuke them with x-rays or something.

They already have the nitrogen in the tire center so it wouldn't even be an expensive addition.

Went to church today and there were no less than three maskless people inside the holy of holies, defiling it.

They were doing a great job making sure people had masks as they went in. I was grabbing a cart when I heard the greeter say “Do you have a mask sir!?...well you do now!” and the dude did put it on, after he’d pushed his cart 15 yards into the store. Whoever hired this particular employee deserves a promotion because telling him to gently caress off would be equivalent to telling Santa to gently caress off, he was a super jovial chubby white haired boomer. Dead ringer for Brian Doyle-Murray tbh.

But I didn’t see anyone policing while inside the store.

Last time I was at Costco was 6-8 weeks ago and I didn’t see a single person without a mask. AND there wasn’t a statewide mask order then, but there is now.

Not good.

I think maybe they got rid of the three fresh meats per person signs but I didn’t really look because I didn’t need more than three fresh meats anyway. Meat prices are still way jacked for the good stuff though. I love me some steaks but I’m not paying 11.99/lb for NY strips when I can get pork chops for $3 a pound still. Pre covid you could get NY strip loins for $6 a pound but I haven’t seen one since February.

Lol gently caress that. Tri tip should be 5.99 absolute tops and that’s only if it’s amazing quality and perfectly trimmed.

Average price should be like $4/lb.

yeah the whole appeal of a nice tri-tip is that it was cheap and low-key as a cut. that's been changing a bit the last several years becoming rapidly more popular but still
