A word from Old Town Social
Unassuming, understated simplicity. What makes an eatery great - and timeless - is its ability to create an ambiance that evokes an emotional response. At Old Town Social, we aim to offer a handcrafted return to the basics; a focus on the simple, yet often overlooked, aspects of a neighborhood favorite. In today's current climate, a night to celebrate life's simple pleasures with tasty food, handcrafted cocktails, great beer and wine, and a devil-may-care attitude is indeed a rare gift. So - to those who shun "the scene", welcome. To those who lead a sporting lifestyle, we offer a hearty embrace. We humbly hope you enjoy our rakish tip-of-the-hat...Continued

- Nice place.wordmaneatsDined on 11/2/2014We had a good sized (6) group. I got there early and - unlike a lot of other places - I was lead to the table immediately. (This trend in waiting to seat you until the whole party arrives is annoying.) I was seated immediately and greeted within minutes. Colleen - our server - was awesome. She was attentive without being over bearing. She was informative without being snobby. It was a double birthday and she made it an awesome event. The food was good. It came in a timely fashion. We were never rushed or made to feel unwelcome. Best french press coffee I know of. Micheal the bartender took care of me and my girlfriend who stuck around for an after dinner drink and some football on the TV.Special Features:
- Old Town SocialfoodisgoodDined on 11/2/2014Our over-all visit to the Old Town Social was pleasing, however, our group of 8 did not fit well into one of their "6-8 person" booths. We indicated this to our host and server, to which the response was that we would be just fine... The food was delicious, but not quite to the level that I have experienced their in the past, and my daughter ordered the chilequilas (delicious but...) that were not marked on the menu as being "spicy", but were nearly 4 on a 5 scale. She couldn't eat them. We love visiting Old Town Social when we visit Chicago, but have decided it is better served for much smaller groups...Special Features:
- The tale of three waitersforeverfoodieVIPDined on 10/24/2014The food was delicious as always. The only thing we weren't such a big fan of was the beet salad that was pretty over dressed and way too vinegary. Also, there were only like 3 beet slices in a mound of frisee. The problem with our visit was that the we never knew who our waiter/waitress was. One lady took our drink order and brought a sample of a beer and then disappeared. Later a man came over to ask how I liked the beer and brought me a different beer then never returned. Then a different woman came over to take our appetizer order. Then the original waitress came to take our order and was with us the rest of the night. She was the least favorite of our three waiters as she was not very friendly and seemed rather annoyed to be there.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great SpotYumAllTheTimeDined on 10/16/2014This is a great spot for casual drinks and food with a great atmosphere. For sports, groups, a date night or just craving some good food, this spot has it all. There are areas for sit down dinner or lounge/bar type areas. The drinks were well made and the beer list was expansive. The food tasted great and everyone in our party enjoyed their dinners. If we lived closer, we would make this a usual place to be.Special Features:
- what happened to the food here?SBakallVIPDined on 10/11/2014I haven't been to Old Town Social for brunch in about a year. This place USE to have really yummy delish food, but not so much anymore.. I'm not sure what happened because out of the 6 brunch entrees and 2 appetizers we ordered, the only standout was the poutine.. Not sure what has happened here...Special Features:
- Hidden GemTownieVIPDined on 10/5/2014We went for brunch and to watch the bears game. The food was great, our booth had its own TV and the place definitely has charm. We will be back soon.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good post Second City venueChalet133VIPDined on 9/27/2014Great beers. Loved the cheese and charcuterie boards. The English burger was great. Our waitress do a great job of managing our crew.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- MomipadVIPDined on 9/20/2014First time there and not disappointed with anything; loved the music.Special Features:
- Not as good as last yearJamieDined on 9/7/2014My husband and I went here to watch football when we visited Chicago last year. It was great! The staff was excellent. The food menu was good and all food very fresh. The bathrooms were clean. The wine, beer and drink menu was strong. We returned this year and were disappointed. Service was ok but they had problems setting up the tvs for NFL games and we nearly missed kick-off of the Bears game! The food menu was disappointing and the food was not as fresh or special. The bathrooms were not particularly dirty but not especially clean; the soap dispensers were broken and the place felt run down. The wine, beer and drink lists were still strong. We will not be back and cannot recommend it.
- Love the atmosphere and fresh foodAMYCVIPDined on 8/11/2014Loved the bohemian/shabby chic environment with delicious fresh food; very friendly service and helpful in finding the best craft beerSpecial Features:
- Great place to show a friendJessicaDined on 8/1/2014My friend was in from out of town and Old Town Social was a great place to start our night. They had interesting twists on regular American fare, such as the 3 kinds of deviled eggs, and the grilled cheese with tomato soup. I, unfortunately, was not impressed with how crisp the pork belly tacos were, but that could be a fluke. The ambiance is wonderful, the decor is also very unique and interesting. Love the lighting and the old photos, although they're creepy! Haha! I, also, unfortunately did not enjoy our waitress but we were also a larger group which is more difficult to manage. Overall, I would definitely come back but with a bit of a smaller crowd.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- EhhlovediningDined on 7/20/2014Came here with a large group for brunch. Our waitress was great, and we loved the atmosphere at the restaurant! The outdoor patio is lovely. However, the food and service from the kitchen fell flat. Half our party got food 15 minutes before the other half! Totally not our waitress's fault, but you'd think the manager would apologize for the discrepancy. Moving onto the food, ordered a plain side of pancakes that came out literally uncooked. My boyfriend bit into the pancakes and said "Mmm they put some sort of cream in the middle!" And I informed him that this was actually RAW PANCAKE BATTER! Disgusting. The turkey confit was OK, I hated the dressing and the turkey was a bit dry though. Highlight of the meal was the bloody mary.Special Features:
- Loved it!KGaySDined on 7/6/2014Has a great outside space (good for taking the kids) and great indoor space which is very adult and inviting. Loved the place and the brunch menu was tasty and varied. We had a great time and will go back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food, so-so serviceOpenTable Diner Since 2005VIPDined on 6/25/2014We went here with a group before an event. Service took forever, but food and drinks were wonderfulSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Really good experiencecarodDined on 6/21/2014I loved it. I went on a saturday. I read bad reviews about service on yelp but I had no issues. Food was awesome! Great variety, indicate gluten free and vegan on menu. Nice vintage vibe in there. It was a young crowd. I definitely recco it to anyone!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Hooked at the first biteOpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 6/21/2014Food was great, perfect for elevated food without a multicourse, multihour experience. Great to chat over a good cocktail and delicious food, prepared without drama!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- ChicagofoodfreakDined on 6/15/2014The food was delcious, the theme of the resturant and ambiance were spectular! We came right when the doors opened at 11 and had a quiet, quick and wonderful brunch. I had the eggs Sardu which were fantastic! The hashbrown casserole that comes with some dishes was also amazing! I will be back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Brunch was amazingchicagolovesfoodVIPDined on 6/8/2014We went with a group of 6 -- 3 of our group was late, but the hostess station didn't mind at all. We all ordered our drinks and food -- food came a little slow, but once it came, we were happy. We'll always come back because of the fun location and the great food.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great for dinner before a showCoachDined on 6/7/2014This was our first time at Old Town Social. I thought the space was great, a crowd came in half way thru our meal, but I didn't feel like it got more crowded or even necessarily more loud. The food was great, as was the beer list. We enjoyed our meal, had a great view of the TVs, and overall thought it was a fantastic place, and would definitely return. Within walking distance to shows at North and Wells as well!Special Features:
- nice enoughOpenTable Diner Since 2007VIPDined on 5/31/2014nice evening - dining outside. chicago summer. the beet salad was fantastic. the kale salad was ok. the burgers were burnt! no one came over for a while after they were served, so we picked off the black parts and ate them. at least when i mentioned the problem, the server brought us a free batch of donut holes for dessert! nice treat. the tacos (a mix of kinds) were truly underwhelming. i think you go here for drinks/outdoor real estate. too bad, cuz i had heard the food was especially good.Special Features:
- Best burgers and amazing menu!LM2014Dined on 5/25/2014We stumbled upon OTS when going to Second City for a show. We lOVED it! We were wishing we lived in Chicago so we could visit it more. There are great options for the delicious burgers and the chopped salad is wonderful. Honestly there are so many unique twists on standard bar food that we could hardly decide. The booths are cozy and the western-industrial decor is very cool.Special Features:
- Great BrunchHappyDinerVIPDined on 5/18/2014The Bloody Mary is a work of art! The food was so good I am going back next weekend! Can't wait!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Afer Theater DiningLisabeDined on 5/10/2014I had read a review on the OTS burger in Timeout and thought we would give the restaurant a try. Especially, since it is walking distance from Steppenwolf. The staff was wonderful. Since it was a beautiful night we waited to sit outside, apart from the L going by, it was great. Our waitress Trish was great. My husband had the burger, I had the Chicken Banh Mi sandwich and our friends had the Po'boy sandwich and a salad. I thought the food had a lot of flavor. Outstanding cocktails, too.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- great space, great foodsmg123Dined on 5/4/2014Went here for brunch and had a great time. The space is awesome -- large and open with a comfortable feel. The food was also great, but the bloody mary left something to be desired. I appreciate the appetizer size accompaniments, but the drink itself was pretty plain. Also, the draft beer selection was also pretty plain. But the bottle list was better. I'd definitely recommend this place for a date. They also have well-placed TVs for game-watching, but they do not dominate the space -- this is not a sports bar.Special Features:
- Kentucky Derby BrunchOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 5/3/2014We came to OTS for their Kentucky Derby pig roast that we had seen advertised on the website as well in a CBS piece on the top Kentucky Derby Parties in Chicago. However, to our disappointment the pig had not been ordered... thus no pig roast. When we arrived for reservation a little before noon we asked if we could dine on the outdoor patio - we were informed there would be no service out there today. As we were leaving we noticed this had changed as their were several diners on their side patio. We did stay for several mimosas, appetizers, and their brunch menu which was tasty.Special Features:
- Needs to be more social!ChicGourmetVIPDined on 4/27/2014Brunch at Old Town was a bit of a mixed experience. Our food was tasty, but not fabulous. Our server was friendly, after she first brusquely informed us "it's a game day, we're geared up for crowds, and we won't do anything special" when one of us requested the "Bananas Foster French Toast" ordinarily on the menu. She rallied, however, and offered to ask the chef who in fact assented: the French toast was good. Our table neighbors fared less well: one had an allergy and required help to assess what she could eat there; the servers argued "it's a game day~can't change a thing. After waiting 45 minutes for their meal, the folks left. Our server forgot one of our items altogether; the last, Turkey Pastrami Hash was odd but okay.Special Features:
- extremely poor servicePaulVIPDined on 4/25/2014I went here with my girlfriend and another couple. I've heard both great things about the bar as well as really bad things about the sit-down area. The food was OK, but the service was absolutely horrendous. The waitress clearly just wanted us to order drinks, and we had to ask the waitress 3x to order our food. The first two times she left without taking our order (this took about 40 min.). When we got the bill at the end of the night, we asked her if she could split it two ways as there were two couples and one friend. She said b/c we "didn't ask for it to be split in the beginning that I can't split it." Then she screwed up the bill. I'm not going to go on and on about it but you can be sure I will never come here again.
- Rude staffOpenTable Diner Since 2012VIPDined on 4/12/2014Every time I've eaten dinner here we're had extremely rude waitresses and hostesses. I think this place is much better for late night drinks onlySpecial Features:
- Solid placeSpikelawVIPDined on 4/11/2014Old town social is a good place which is appealing to the eye, having some nice, large rounded booths, a long bar with tvs, and an outdoor seating area. I would imagine it could crossover into a but more of a club later I. The evening, however, we were there earlier. The deviled eggs were tasty and have a couple of different flavored on each plate. My salad was my favorite, being very fresh. No food was crazy good but all was solid. The best aspect of our experience was the service. From the hostess, to the bartender, to our server, all were polite, friendly and seemed to really care about us having a good time.
- Awesome brunch with as the groupOpenTable Diner Since 2004VIPDined on 4/6/2014We had a great time and the food was awesome. Service was a little slow. Overall great experience for brunch on a Sunday with energetic atmosphere and a DJ.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- This is a bar atmosphere,JennBDined on 3/22/2014This is a bar atmosphere, drinks are pricey, food is excellent as far as bat good goes. Burgers were great!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food is really over-hyped.OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 3/21/2014Food is really over-hyped. It was mediocre pub food at best. All show, no punch.
- Highly disappointed with serviceChicagorestaurantgoerDined on 3/9/2014I dined with 2 other guests on a slow, Sunday night. Our water glasses were empty throughout most of our meal, no one came to check on us once we had our food or offer to bring us more drinks, and some parts of our order came late. Not once did our waitress apologize or offer an explanation as to why we were so neglected. In the end, after waiting 20 minutes for our bill once we asked for it, our waitress miscounted the cash we gave her and overcharged one of our credit cards until we brought that to her attention. All 3 members of our party have worked in the restaurant industry, so initially we tried to be understanding. However, in the end, what happened (and what didn't happen) throughout our dining experience was inexcusable.
- Friday Night OutElcsp19Dined on 3/7/2014Made a reservation but was seated in the bar area (boo). Date night seated in the bar area for two non-drinkers wasn't what I thought I reserved on Open Table. Food was good and atmosphere was nice.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great AtmosphereOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 2/28/2014Great atmosphere at this place but we made reservations for dinner and we were seated at a couch and chair. Made eating even appetizers difficult. Food was okay but we left after appetizers due to the smoke coming from the fireplace. Too much smoke was coming back into the room - it made it a bit uncomfortable for us. Left smelling like we were at a campfire all night. Sending the coats and sweaters to the cleaners.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- not what expected from descriptionOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 2/23/2014Little more than a hangout for 20 somethings. Not really a tapas bar, not a comfy neighborhood gathering spot, not a foodie destination ... not satisfying on any level. Sterile decor, bland 'edgy' music in the background, many LCD screens built into the walls for what purpose? Server didn't know the menu or bar stock. A big meh.
- Cool placenewbieDined on 2/22/2014Ambiance is cool foods good burgers were undercooked though. Everything else was great.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- yum!OpenTable Diner Since 2006Dined on 2/16/2014burgers, fries, charcuterie - all delish! lamb ragu special was small, but also yummy.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Worth a visitPagedVIPDined on 2/16/2014I have had both dinner and brunch and both were excellent . Their Bloody Mary is a meal in and of its self.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wonderful food!absbritDined on 2/15/2014Great food, great selection of fun drinks. Loved the beer list which reads more like a beer novel. However, our service was extremely unattentive. We were there at 6:00 on a Saturday night and the restaurant was very empty. Our waitress was cold and never cracked a smile. She didn't introduce herself, or ask if we had been there before, or talk about the menu, or the cocktail list. Our food runner was much more pleasant.Special Features:

A $200 million federal program that subsidizes rural air service would end in almost all U.S. states in 2013, hurting a revenue stream for regional airlines led by Great Lakes Aviation Ltd., under a proposal by House Transportation and Infrastructure Chairman John Mica.
The proposal is included in a $59.7 billion bill introduced today to finance the Federal Aviation Administration through fiscal 2014. Mica, a Florida Republican, took leadership of the committee in January from Democratic Representative James Oberstar of Minnesota, a defender of the rural-air subsidy program called Essential Air Service.
The subsidies have quadrupled since 2001 and have become a target for Republican lawmakers who say the government can no longer afford the program at a time of high deficits. Congress created the EAS in 1978 to prevent towns from losing flights following airline deregulation. Carriers including Pinnacle Airlines Corp., based in Memphis, Tennessee, and closely held Cape Air, based in Hyannis, Massachusetts, also get the aid.
Mica is trying to enact legislation to fund oversight of the world's busiest airspace before the latest of Congress' 17 temporary extensions of the current law expires March 31. A $34.6 billion Senate version of the bill, which protects Essential Air Service, is pending on the floor of that body.
The Senate bill is two-year legislation while the House version funds the FAA for four years.
Delta, FedEx
The House proposal would make it more difficult for workers at carriers such as Delta Air Lines Inc. and FedEx Corp. to form unions. It would scuttle a rule put in place last May by a Democratic majority of the National Mediation Board that lets workers form unions with majority approval of those who vote, rather than support from most workers in a class.
The plan also keeps ticket charges at $4.50 per passenger to help fund airport construction, which would be a victory for airlines. The Senate version of the FAA bill also keeps the charges at $4.50. Airports have sought an increase to $7, which President Barack Obama may support in his Feb. 14 budget plan, according to people familiar with the matter who declined to be identified because the proposal isn't public.
The Essential Air Service program paid airlines to serve 153 U.S. communities as of May 1. Subsidies were as high as $5,223 per passenger to serve Ely, Nevada, and as low as $9.21 for flights to Sault Ste. Marie, Michigan, according to the department.
Great Lakes, based in Cheyenne, Wyoming, relied on the subsidies for almost half of its $93.3 million in revenue for the nine months ended Sept. 30, according to a company filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
Mica's proposal would allow subsidies to continue for flights in Alaska, which accounted for 44 markets served, the most of any state, according to the most recent Transportation Department data. The department has contracts for $12.6 million in subsidies for Alaska flights, according to the department's web site.
Senator John McCain, an Arizona Republican, has proposed an amendment to the Senate's FAA bill that would repeal EAS. That proposal hasn't yet been acted on. The Senate, with dozens of lawmakers representing rural states, has turned back efforts to cut the program in the past.
The separate versions of the FAA legislation, when passed by the full House and Senate, would have to be reconciled in a conference committee.
The FAA law would have lapsed on Sept. 30, 2007, without action by Congress. Disputes in both bodies have held up a long- term extension, with issues including how many flights should be allowed from the western U.S. into the federally controlled Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport.

Ben McKnight resigns at Kutztown
Published On: Oct 14 2013 09:27:35 PM CDT
After more than six seasons as head football coach for the Kutztown Cougars, Ben McKnight has resigned from the position.
The Kutztown School District has been very quiet about the situation. The Superintendent's office did not return our call for a statement.
McKnight has not been on the sideline for the Cougars in two weeks. It is unclear whether the parents and players have been given a reason as to why McKnight is no longer the coach.
No interim head coach has been named.
Kutztown is without a win this season. The Cougars have not won a game outright in three years.

Real Housewives of New York City
Las Vegas, Texas, Miami, Mexico, Italy. Yes, the Real Housewives love to travel almost as much as they like a good glass of wine. Almost. Not to be outdone, the New York City cast took the term exotic getaway to a whole new level with a Morocco trip spanning three episodes. Part Sex and the City 2 come to life and part sequel to last year's Scary Island excursion (neither of which we knew we wanted), the Real Housewives of New York City's time abroad was hilarious, dramatic, mildly offensive and — believe it or not — educational!

I found this great purple border print cotton at the wondrous Fabric Cave in Sydney awhile back, for the bargain price of $12 for the 4m piece. With this much fabric I decided a maxi dress would be the way to go!
I made this over two evenings, finally finishing at 11.30pm the night before wanting to wear it to Floriade in Canberra. As a result, I've already ripped the right strap out and need to fix that up! But that's ok, because as usual for me the straps are too long and needed adjusting anyway.

Thanks! I had to add some extra darts to the bodice, because it wanted to gape open under my arms when made to the pattern. I'm much happier with it like this!

SHENANDOAH, Va. -- A producer from a C-SPAN series made his way to the Valley to shoot an episode this week.
It's part of the second season of a show based on all the first ladies, from Martha Washington to Michelle Obama.
Andy Och is the producer of the series, 'First Ladies: Influence and Image.'
Och came to the Shenandoah National Park to shoot part of an episode based on President Hoover's first lady Lou Hoover.
Och says the Hoovers used to vacation in this area.
He says learning more about the first ladies tells you more about the history behind the presidency at that time.
"I think a big part of their story, of these people, specifically these first ladies is to know what they were like before the presidency, after the presidency and during the presidency, but outside of Washington," said Och. "So vacation places like this are a very key part of their stories."
The new season starts September 9 on C-SPAN, and this episode featuring the Valley will air October 14 at 9 PM.

The House spelt Delicious! During the time the stock was being reduced. A great authentic taste
I did not have access to beef bones so I just bought beef stock added water, then added the remaining ingredients and let it simmer for 1/2 the time.
Flavour of the soup was quite good, needs a bit of tweaking towards the end of the process to get the flavours quite right. Using a bit of beef stock when making the soup might not go astray as I found it felt like it needed more salt or something. All in all though it was super easy and very tasty... Great smells from the kitchen while the broth was cooking too!
Divine! Made my own stock, roasted beef bones and onion (cut into quarters, with skin on) for about an hour before boiling as per recipe (also helps to create a nice rich brown stock). Yummy, nice fresh clean flavours.
Mmm mmm this is so tasty! I used 1.5L of beef consomme instead of using 3L of water and reducing it with the beef bones. I then boiled the spices with the consomme for about 30 mins. The dish turned out quite authentic in flavour. Will definitely be making it again!
I absolutely love Vietnamese food & I have been wanting to cook this soup for a while & I am so glad I did using this recipe. Very easy & really tasty.
Pretty darn good! Made it with beef stock instead of using the bone, as i'm not a fan of it. Added extra veggies. Excellent soup, will be making again.
The meat turned out beautifully, I will use the method of adding sliced beef upon serving much more often now. The stock didn't turn out so well - it was quite grey in colour and very bland - I added soy sauce and fresh ginger to it. But for all the time I spent making the stock, next time I would probably just buy stock and add some spices to it.
Absolutely delish, very flavorsome and rich.. I only spent 30 minutes of cooking time and the flavors were awesome and I did not use any bones, just stock and it was already good. I will definitely try the bone marrows next time for an even deeper flavour. I love the thinly sliced raw meat, adds a just perfect dimension to the soup
I made a really simple version of this dish which I found in a recipe book and combined it with some advice from a local Vietnamese supermarket employee - it only took about 30 mins total to make. I will have to try this recipe to make any judgements but I quite liked the simple version which I made. Boil some beef stock, ginger and some crazy spice/stock cubes(?) (suggested by the Vietnamese dude, simply labelled with "pho" and various Vietnamese writing on it). Add some fish sauce to the stock/water/spice mixture. Put the banh pho noodles into the bowls which you want to serve out, tip the boiling hot mixture on them & fill up the serving bowl. Throw in the Vietnamese mint, bean sprouts, sliced chilli, thin sliced raw eye fillet beef, lemon juice, salt and pepper into each individual one.
Thanks neilsoltesz for this. It's good to have a quick version (i've not tried the above yet, as I'm keen to locate a quick version first!)... Anyhoo I'll give your suggestion recipe a burl...and let you know how I go...
All I can say is YUM! This recipe is even better than the Pho dish from the local Viet restaurant! I used cheap beef bones for the stock, but next time I will use marrow bones as I found after I simmered the stock for the 3 hours it wasn't as tasty as it could have been so I added a bit of Chinese 5 Spice powder (essentially the same spices put into the stock in the beginning, but it's ground) - I also added a beef stock cube. I'd definately make it again - the stock can be frozen and can be pulled out of the freezer for a quick mid week meal. 10/10

"The Boiler Room has been many things to many people. A coffeehouse, an art gallery, a private business, a nonprofit teen center, a cause, a scapegoat. But to me it has been a salvation – a place to be, and belong. Home. I've worked with some of the finest human beings I've met to preserve a common goal of home for ourselves and anyone else who needed it, to resolve the question of where do I belong. So many people ask it, and we can never afford to let ignorance settle such questions."

Gospel Reflections Mathew 7:7-12
Version 8 and above required to view videos
Uploaded by on Feb 20, 2013
Beginning on Sunday we heard in the Mass readings Christ calling us to something more than feeding our earthly wants and desires. Calling us to focus on the things of eternal importance. Yesterday we heard Christ leading us repentance and conversion. In todays Gospel reading we hear our Lord following chastisement with instruction. He invites us to call upon our Heavenly Father for those things that feed the spirit. To seek God's grace and mercy. Posted to http://www.catholicfamilyman.com

Country singer/songwriter Trent Willmon has decided to diversify his portfolio. Already collecting mailbox money from several Top 40 radio hits he has either recorded himself or written for other country stars such as Brad Paisley, Eric Church and Montgomery Gentry, Willmon has returned to his Texas roots to create and market his own brand of barbecue sauce.
No celebrity dilettante slapping his face on a label of generic product, Willmon is serious about this endeavor. An ex-cattle roper from West Texas, Trent definitely knows his way around a smoker. His custom pistol-chimneyed behemoth could be seen for years outside of Judge Bean's BBQ joint, where he had loaned it to Mr. Aubrey, his friend and fellow Texan brisket broiler.
As part of the promotion for his Beer Man album, Trent dragged this monster smoker behind his tour bus from city to city cooking for fans and radio stations. His experience as a caterer around Nashville came in handy feeding the masses at each tour stop. His specialty was his brisket, and his sauce is designed with beef in mind.
Making the move from small batches of homemade sauce to mass production by a sauce manufacturer out of Ponca City, Oklahoma was a process that Willmon managed personally. Originally available in two heat factors, "Hoss" and "Wuss," the commercial version settled in the middle with a "Hot & Sweet" offering. The current batch is the third attempt at matching Willmon's vision of what he used to make in his mother's kitchen. A stickler for quality, he is finally satisfied with Sauce 3.0.
A beef baron in the middle of pig country, Willmon knows that he has a slight uphill battle to fight for acceptance of a brisket sauce. Judge Bean has agreed to sell the sauce in his new location in Brentwood so that Trent can preach to the choir. Primarily designed as a brisket dipping sauce, Beer Man Sauce is also suitable to brush on ribs or chicken during the last 15 minutes of cooking on your grill.
The low sugar content of the recipe and the thinner consistency should help to prevent the danger of overcarmelization that some brand name sauces are prone to, but it is still thick enough to stick to a basting brush. The heat level could be a little higher, and Willmon hopes to release a hotter version if the Hot & Sweet takes off. Hints of lime and garlic balance the slight black pepper burn nicely.
If you're willing to try something different, step away from the shoulder, buy a big ole brisket and follow Trent's recipe below. His Beer Man Cookbook has this and 150 more recipes and is available as well as the bottles of sauce at his website www.trentwillmon.com. If you'd rather hear him sing instead, be on the lookout for a new live DVD filmed at Gilley's, the ultimate Texas honky tonk that is due out later this month.
This is one of the hardest things to master. The main reason is that it requires an internal heat of 185-195 degrees to be done, but on such a large, thick cut of beef, it must be done slowly, or it will turn to rubber and be chewy. This takes a minimum of 14 hours, sometimes up to 20 hours (allow about an hour per pound of raw meat, briskets are 16-20 pounds). That is a lot of tending the fire, refueling it every 3-4 hours.
Here is another option. I have seen little difference in the end product and even purists are fooled. It is my theory that after about 8-10 hours, smoking at 200-225 degrees, the smoke stops penetrating the meat, therefore most brisketeers will wrap them in foil and put them back on the smoker, finishing them out another 6-10 hours at the same 200-225 degrees. After they are wrapped in foil, the only thing the smoker contributes is heat. So an oven at 200 degrees is much more practical for finishing out the brisket, although you better have a good drip pan. I rarely use this process, since most of the time when I smoke one brisket, I smoke several, and ovens are smaller than my smoker.
HINT: CHOOSING A GOOD BRISKET can determine if the end product is tender. At the supermarket, grab one end of the brisket with both hands and hold it straight up in front of you. The more it flops over, the more tender it will be when smoked. The stiffer it is, the tougher it will be.
16 to 20 pound brisket(s), untrimmed, washed
Brisket Rub
Beer Barbeque Spray
Basic Brisket Sauce
Lots of soaked mesquite chunks
Big bag of charcoal
Rub down the briskets liberally with Brisket Rub.
Experience with your individual smoker will tell you how big a fire to build and how often to feed the fire to maintain that magic 200-225 degree temperature. Adding the water soaked mesquite chunks will lower the temperature a little and keep a slow, smoky fire going after you shut the lid. Make sure you build a good charcoal fire, let it burn to medium coals, then add mesquite chunks before putting briskets on. Always smoke brisket FAT SIDE UP, allowing fat to drip down into the meat while smoking.
Things to remember:
1. Maintain the 200-225 degrees as best you can, adding a couple handfuls of charcoal and a couple soaked mesquite chunks as needed. Also adjust vents as needed.
2. Every about 2-3 hours, I spray down the briskets quickly, then quickly shut the lid as not to change the temperature so much.
3. After about 10 hours, wrap the brisket in aluminum foil or Saran Wrap (will not melt if you keep temp under 225 degrees), this ensures a tender, moist brisket.
4. Cook about 1 hour per pound of raw meat. Peel off foil and slice, serving with Sauce on the side.
5. Slicing tips: Run your knife between the top and bottom layers (fat separates the two), and remove the top layer. The grain runs a different direction than the bottom layer. Slice both layers AGAINST THE GRAIN, in 1/4 inch slices.

University of Calgary experimenting with one-handed iPhone gestures
A research team from the GroupLab at the University of Calgary is working on a set of new single-handed gestures for the iPhone called the the Fat Thumb interaction technique. This technique lets you hold your iPhone with one hand and use your thumb to interact with the UI.
The team conducted a trial that challenged users to pan and zoom to a location on a map and the Fat Thumb interaction technique performed as well as other commonly-used multi-fingered techniques. You can read more about the gestures in the group's 10-page PDF research paper and watch a video of the technique in action on the GroupLab website.
