Ribs......

[spazlabz]

I remember a conversation with you rhetorical that seemed to be pretty demeaning toward ribs while espousing the virtues of dropping almost a grand on a bottle of wine.
If the search function was working I'd have found the thread, but I am not gonna go looking for it page by page heh heh

I dunno man?
I gave that bitch one of my ribs, and look at the fucking mess she got me in now

This is funny, because I had ribs last night. Personally I don't think you need a dedicated smoker and grill. A nice big grill can be used to cook and smoke. For $159 this one is hard to beat. http://www.chargriller.com/shop/grills/outlaw.html

Add the side fire box for $59. http://www.chargriller.com/shop/bbq-...-fire-box.html

I am thinking that that is the thread and it is just memory of the discussion that might be out of whack.

In there is talk of ribs, comparison to 3 star reataurants and mentions of $200 a bottle wine. What is missing is the demeaning part.

I think sometimes folks remember conversations as being pissier than they actually were.

But, I could be wrong as I often am

Well, I only found in the search 2 threads where it appeared that you and Spaz discussed wine and ribs. The second was pretty much a continuation of what I linked to. http://www.oprano.com/msgboard/showthread.php?t=54959 Is the continuation.

Is it possible for a thread to exist on Oprano for more than a few hours before someone gets in a fight with Rhetorical and kills the fucking thread? Jesus, this is getting old.

Nah, as much as I appreciate that I couldn't look stupid I admit I probably do on this one. However, it was where you stated that there is a reason people pay the big bucks for a meal and it is because it tastes better.

Any old black man with a pit bbq will sell you heaven for a couple of bucks

You never really understood the point I was making. You see anyone with the desire will be able to make great ribs. But I was talking about food that is so complex, I could never in my lifetime hope to prepare. You have to understand, there is a reason why people pay money for great cuisine and great wine. If you think about it, most of those people are rich and successful and will only spend money to get great value. So when you drop a grand on a meal, it will be worth it or the restaurant will crash and burn.
As for the wine, the same rules apply. It is called the free market. If it is not worth the price, it won't sell.
A good example. I was reading about this Atlanta madam that got busted in a million dollar house. In my neck of the woods, that is a tear down or a pretty good apartment. In Atlanta it is still luxury. And I gotta say, I wish it was the same here because an apartment....that I can see from my deck...just got listed at 18.2 million.
So the point I am making is value is perception and value is what you can sell for more than you paid.
