Nope.
They’re often in the right seat though.

You don’t want to hear the kinds of cockpit shenanigans those two can play on you.
I’m pretty tame with the f@rt game.
They can get down right mean and think it’s funny.

Well, truth be told, it wouldn't be a favorite or even in my Top 10 but I've been known to polish off a can and a box of Ritz on occasion. Usually with a 6-pack of Pabst Blue Ribbon. I like to broaden my tastes both upward and downward, makes it easier to partake in the hospitality of others.

OK... Seriously...

Shredded Colby and Cheddar mixed into Philly Cream Cheese, packed into a gutted jalapeno pepper wrapped with bacon and grilled upright in my homemade chicken wire popper roaster. YUM !!


Word of advice – let them sit and cool a bit before you pop’m in your mouth.
Cold beer in other hand is also a good idea.

True...I am just rude and just deal with the fact I don't like stuff that others are serving. Lately I've been trying stuff I wouldn't usually, it worked once. But I'm pretty good in knowing my tastebuds. Its tough for me to eat at other peoples homes. Haha.

But okay, good! I thought that it was your FAVORITE cheese! Good to know its not even in your top 10.

I'm so boring. I like plain food. The more spices and weird stuff I am not used to on it, the more likely I will dislike it.

All of these have to be at the farm, not the processed pasteurized stuff:

1. Blue cheese, aka Rocquefort, with the blue bacteria still in it! YUMMM!

2. Camembert with rind that tastes tangy, like someone poured bleach on it YUMMM!

3. Brie, soft and subtle. But tangy, like the milkmaids who create it. YUMMM!

After years of living well, I have to watch eating stuff like this.

For example I have just recently experienced the spice "cumin" and it was just horrid.

Not at all !! Please do.

I’ve made quite a few over the years. Not only are the poppers a hit at the parties, but you’ll find that rack is as well. Darby even sold one to a guest one time for $150.00 (think drunk, rich rancher).

I’ve got three of them that size now that I’ll hold on to for sure. I’ve even put little handles on the sides for easy transport.

Chicken wire and “anti-bunny fencing”. Can load them up the night before (there is a bit of prep time for a load of 100+ poppers) and put them in the beer cooler. Set them up on a medium grill for about 15-20 minutes (brown the cheese, crisp up the bacon a tad and wrinkle the pepper). They will draw a crowd. And, you wouldn’t believe how fast those poppers are gone.

Also, you try a slice of dove breast. Or, some sausage mixed into the cheese blend. The sky’s the limit on the stuffing. Always a hit.

You’ll find too, that over time/use, they will get as seasoned as a nice piece of cast iron cookware.

Pretty simple - but if you'd like a better picture, just ask.

My favorites...

The top one must be Gruyere - great smell and taste and delicious French cheese.

Close second is Norwegian Jarlsberg - nutty and delicious.

Any brie, or soft ripened cheese - like President;

Finally, not really a single cheese but rather a mixture there of: Foundue (usually made with Ementaller and Gruyere, garlic, nutmeg, white wine, and Kirshwasser) - ganz wunderbar!

... don't eat American cheese, since it's not really cheese....

Typical American responses.

I suggest that during the course of the year, the next time you're at a restaurant that has it on their menu, order the cheese course instead of a traditional dessert. It has the potential to be a life changing experience, and how many of those do you come across these days for so little?

Put me down for a good English Stilton.
