Yep. I'll put it up on the Recipes database when it is all done. I started a thread discussing this recipe about a month ago:
https://www.homebrewtalk.com/f12/george-washingtons-small-beer-recipe-419244/
How'd it turn out? I'm planning on a 4-5 brewday tomorrow myself. Octoberfest time.
Very cool. Will keep an eye on that.
Heres an old, sappy tune that I have always liked. For your late night Saturday soundtrack, Mary Hopkins.

How many pounds of apples do I need per pound of cider? I guess I could look up a recipe. The friends we are staying with have 2 trees that are almost falling down, they are so full of apples. Said I could take some with me.
Oh, and the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. The catfish I cooked the other night was melt in your mouth, 2 men fell in love with me. Hubby was jealous.

Hmmm...got a pile of large frozen shrimp and I'm hankering to make a snack out of them. I was thinking of either pan-frying them or maybe skewering them under the broiler. Any good ideas for seasoning & spice?

I like;
Amber or brown ale, German mustard, Old Bay, Garlic, Olive Oil, pinch of oregano. Marinade in that for as little as 30 mins or as long as overnight.
Put them on your skewers and broil or grill.

Hmm.. no Old Bay or German mustard. I think I am going to go with chipotle, garlic, and cumin, pan fried with a slice of bacon, and sprinkle with lime. Here I go.

That sounds just as good! Enjoy!
Like fresh not a fan of frozen seafood prefer garlic butter and basil with a little red pepper, myself. What are you chasing it down with?

My wife is out of town and I am reclaiming the kitchen and trying to figure out where she has stashed stuff.
I miss cooking, but she hates how I wing things. She needs to have everything planned out at least 2 days in advance, where I am a "here and now" sort of guy.

I have 15 gallons lagering since May 17 so should be ready for end of Sept.- Oct.

Butter and garlic is definitely good, so simple. The chipotle/cumin/garlic with bacon and lime was fantastic, but if I had decent seafood in the house I wouldn't do those spices, too overpowering. But for old frozen shrimp from the back of the freezer, it was excellent.
I'm basically clearing out the fridge and freezer and playing Iron Chef with what I find.
I'm chasing it alternately with my blonde ale and my apfelwein. The blonde ale isn't the greatest, I'm just drinking it to empty the bottles.
For old frozen shrimp, I like curry powder.

Yeah...I was looking at the hot madras, but decided I wanted to go southwest on it.
I've got some chicken in the fridge that I am going to turn into tikka masala with basmati rice, probably tomorrow evening.
Sounds yummy.
I worked a 9 1/2 hour day today. I'm slightly pissed about that. I had to work the extra time because two people went home early last night. I pulled their work out of the fire today. Oh well, more money for me I guess.

As long as you get paid. If not I'd expect two people to do some nice things for you, whether they want to or not.

There is a roadside stand in Hawaii that serves fresh shrimp. My favorite is the garlic shrimp. The little fellas are just slathered in buttery sautéed garlic. Mmm good
If you like coconut one of my favorites is sautéed mushrooms and garlic in butter and olive oil, throw the shrimp in for a few minutes along with blanched 2 inch prices of asparagus. Add enough pins colada mix to make a nice sauce bring to heat and serve over fettuccini. The pop and bake biscuits go great as well for soaking up the sauce

Sounds like pretty decent fringe benefits. Fresh fish beats the heck out of an Apple!

Those things can be amusing but the vast majority these days are fake... there are plenty of sites/software that allow people to generate them.
One of my favorite fish dishes I've had is jerk swordfish. That wouldn't really work with most fish but swordfish has the structure necessary to make it work. And aside from that, swordfish is absolutely delicious... unfortunately, it also has pretty much the highest mercury content of any species, even exceeding on the order of several times other fish that are also considered to be very high in mercury. If it wasn't for that, I'd probably eat it every week.
