Uhh...6 posts in and no one has offered up a review of The Bone's breakfast?! Weak...

The breakfast burrito was on point. Also the habinero hot sauce is worth the price. I snuck 3 of the little cups home and put it on some chicken for lunch and it had some nice kick to it.

I have a friend in Charlotte who discovered that sauce on a youtube video. Called me, pissed off, one day because he couldn't find a way to order it online. Asked how far out of my way it would be to get him some when I was in VA. Hehehe...little did he know. He now goes through a bottle a week and gives away at least one a week to friends. I really need to get a distribution account set up for this stuff! Ironically, him and I both hate it on bbq (pork) but love it on almost everything else. Not too spicy, and the heat goes away before too long.

My brother told me that my dad's Genesis had the "low washer fluid" light on, even though he took it to Hyundai and they said it was full and he couldn't pour any more into the reservoir. Check it... AKA Reason #117 not to go to the dealer.

Speaking of sauces... my all-time favorite steak sauce comes out of NC.

Sampson Sauce (white label)

Got got hooked on it about thirty years ago when I was dating a girl from Greensboro. Been using it ever since. Pre-internet days, it required a trip to an authentic NC curb market to find it. Now I can order a case with just a few clicks.

YES! It's the secret ingredient in my burgers. But...they changed it about 8 years ago. Nothing major, but noticeable if you were used to it. They claim they didn't. It's still awesome for certain things like it always was.

I'll bring you a few bottles in exchange for wheel time in the Lotus.

What change did you notice? I think it might be slightly less thick, but I'm not noticing anything with the flavor.

I really do enjoy the stuff. Never used it as an ingredient in anything. Just as a condiment.

I'm pretty fond of my burger regimen... ground chuck, salt, pepper, Adobo (Goya) and a very health dose of Old Bay.

The Lotus is a virtual barn find these days. Gotta get it cleaned up and sold already.

Honestly, it’s been long enough that I don’t remember. I think it had to do with the amount of black pepper that was noticeable. If so, then it decreased. But really, I’m not complaining at all.

Awesome truck @John Young ! That frame was immaculate before you brought it out on the salty roads. So since its going to be a rust bucket now I can help take it off your hands

Thank you for your kind offer. You inspired me to get out the pressure washer and spray everything down before putting GB in the garage. I think he will survive.

Well "Damnit Shirley" I missed The Bone meetup :-(

Hey @afgman786 Get your trailer and come rescue me! I’m only about 8 miles from home. Seems 470’s will shut down if the master cylinder springs a leak! Oh, home in NC.

 

[Jakes40]

That looks like quite the leak!

 

[ace10]

Bet it wasn't as much fun as when the master blew on my all-original '67.

Looks like this is a couple months since it dropped but I just saw it. Interesting read.

And I'll just leave this here as well. I need to stop clicking around the Interweb while on nonsense morning meetings.

Someone Grafted A Toyota Tundra Face Onto A Low-Mileage Toyota Land Cruiser And I'm Just Confused - Jalopnik

I’ve said it many times: America has some of the weirdest car cultures in the world, due largely to our lack of vehicle inspections. Germany, for example, would never allow someone to just swap one car’s face onto another — it’s madness. But that madness exists here in the U.S. in spades; just...
