Well jb, since I have apparently become your culinary guide on this trip, I hope you enjoyed the Black Butte......one of my favorites. It's made just south of us in Oregon so I hope they "export" the good stuff back east. Ah tamales!! Yummy stuff, though a lot of joints get the ratio of filling to wrapping off.............probably for cost control.

Is the Pope a Catholic?
Hell YES!
The Negra Modelo I had t'other day tasted like watered down possum pee after the Arrogant Bastards I'd been sucking on previously.
But that Black Butte was bloody gorgeous.
Sir: I admire your good taste!
(I have to; it's the same as mine!)

Yeah...well...this bloke got his ratios wrong...by the time I'd skinned and gutted it I was left with about 25% of carcass weight...where your average beefy weighs out at around 55%.
