Flemington is having their annual business fire today. This time it's Tirpok Cleaners and I'm sure Central Liquors next door to them will go up. Just wish I had run in and salvaged the Blue Label

Going Up?
Really excited I just scored a fantastic job with a great company. Life's finally looking up after going through hell for the last year or so. Have a great girlfriend and we went ring shopping the other day(she was concerned about the prices of the ring. 
) Been a hell of a year for me but at this point I can't complain.

Shew...... that was a little too close to Chick-Fil-A for my comfort.

Yeah, their chicken sandwich is amazing. Glad they finally came to the NY Metro area, now all we need is a Hardies.

You don't need to go there. This recipe so closely mimics chik-fil-a that we had to make a house rule that we would only make it once a month or else we would eat it every day. This recipe and a buttered and toasted Brioche bun; you'll think you were eating at chik-fil-a.

I never ate a Chik-fil-a but everyone tells me how good it is. I don't even know where one is?

Wow. Bookmarked!
I did a knock-off White Castle recipe a few years ago that came out incredible. I even cut out the 5 little holes in the patty. The most important secret is something I never would have thought of, they actually cook the burgers ON a big bed of buttered minced onions, and it's the buttery onions that impregnates the meat which gives most of the flavor.
Sadly (pathetically?), I can answer this question.

They're mainly in malls around here.
The only freestanding one I know of in New Jersey is at the corner of Rt 1 and Rt 35 down in Woodbridge.
Chicken sandwich and chicken salad sandwiches are my go-tos.

Congrats guys!
And as far as Chick Fil A goes, every time I find myself wanting to eat some it's usually on a Sunday when they're closed.

My longtime ex girlfriend from like a long time ago, used to love to go there when she would drag me to the mall. She loved to eat those waffle fries they have.
I haven't been to a Chick Fil A in like almost 4 years. That was a then girlfriends choice to eat at too.
It's good, I just don't go out of my way to eat it and don't really eat fast food that much anymore.

There is also one in Quakertown. There used to be one in the Lehigh Valley Mall, but I don't think that one is there anymore.
A couple tips concerning the recipe:
-The roll has to be Brioche and it has to be buttered and toasted.
-Marinate the chicken for at least one hour.
-Use peanut oil
-Those little electric home deep fryers don't maintain heat well enough. Use a pot on the stove with a digital thermometer instead. Bring the oil to around 400 degrees (be careful not to go too far over 400) and only do a couple pieces at a time. Using high temp oil means you should butterfly thick pieces so the outside doesn't burn before the inside cooks through.
*Optionally you can add a little MSG. I've tried it with about 1/8th teaspoon MSG mixed in with the breading mix. It does help accentuate the flavor, but I wouldn't say it's necessary. Also, it helps to make twice the called for breading mix (flour) and divide it between two containers. I use two, one gallon ziplock bags. Always go Flour -> Egg wash -> Flour.
Alternatively, for a slightly healthier experience, you can follow the same recipe. However, when you are making the flour breading mix, just nix the flour. Marinate the chicken the same way, then coat the pieces with the flourless spice mixture and grill them. It also works with legs and thighs, and I would assume wings.
Congrats guys!

Same here. Every time I go drive home from Kohl's or whatever in Phillipsburg on a Sunday I always crave Chick Fil A, but can never get it. I settle for taco bell or Wawa instead. Maybe I'll go tomorrow when I go to my girl's house in that area lol
I am off to the Caribbean for the next week. Bleed, don't miss me.
Nice have fun! Went on a cruise in January to the British & U.S. Virgin Islands and Bahamas, I'm jealous!

Tasting time.
I bought a bottle of that once. Not for me. Way too strong to enjoy neat or with 1 ice cube which I sometimes do if it's too harsh for my taste.
On a unrelated note, went for drinks with a coworker who is a scotch enthusiast as much as I am a bourbon one. We bought each other our favorite and I must say - he opened my eyes to scotch where I thought it was simply overpriced for less flavor profile.
Belvanie 12 year Doublewood. I got him the Eagle Rare 10 year. We both were shocked how similar they were in flavor and smoothness.
Highly suggest you try it if you're a bourbon fan but wants a good scotch in the cabinet.

You're absolutely right. It was strong. Not sure about too strong
had sort of a spicy caramel flavor. I wouldn't say it burned, it was actually kind of smooth but it left my mouth feeling hot. Wasn't crazy about it, I wouldn't buy a bottle but I might try it again.Gonna have to try that Scotch.

Apparently there is a one-eyed horse in the Kentucky Derby this year. Kind of hope the horse wins. Would be a triumph for one-eyed horses everywhere.
