re: Bought a 4 pound Chuck Roast
Posted by GeorgiaTide on 2/8/20 at 7:47 pm
[quote]That MS roast recipe just seems like a giant salt bomb.
I like chuck cooked with a boatload of onions and mushrooms[/quote]
I cut the au jus, ranch, and butter in half when I make this and it still turns out great. It’s my go to instant pot recipe as it cuts the cook time down to an hour...

I’ve heard the same from my friend that is in HVAC. Said Google is really only after capturing data from your HVAC systems and selling it to companies that service them. His words were since that is their focus they haven’t kept up with the competition.
He recommended the ecobee which we went wi...

I just did our fireplace a few weekends back. Bonus pic of pup included.

I used white tile grout unmixed from Home Depot. Mixed in a bucket using a corded electric drill with a paint mixer bit. I’d imagine...
re: Recs for GA mountain town to spend weekend around Christmas?
Posted by GeorgiaTide on 10/18/19 at 10:55 am
The square in Dahlonega looks like a postcard during Christmas time from all the lights and decorations the town puts up. Not a ton of options up there for lodging outside of an Airbnb/Vrbo though. Blue Ridge will have more options for food and drink. I would personally avoid Helen as a lot of the s...

Half Shell Oyster House in Biloxi. The Redfish Orleans I had there might have been one of the tastiest dishes I’ve ever had. ...

My dog’s shelter name was Cornicopia. She was renamed within a day. The lady that named her was quite fhe flower child. ...

I have gronk in both my leagues. First place in both. 9-0 in one and 8-1 in the other with my loss due to Julio's 300 yard game. ...
re: Atlanta or Tampa?
Posted by GeorgiaTide on 10/29/16 at 1:41 pm
Is living in the actual city important to you? Because you'll spend more than $1100 a month on a 1BR in a decent area of Atlanta proper. ...
re: WWYD - Auto repair question / Rental car reimbursement
Posted by GeorgiaTide on 10/12/16 at 8:46 pm
As someone that has worked in the industry before, go after the dealership. Call and schedule an appointment with the service manager and if that doesn't resolve it ask to speak to the GM as others have said. I would not advise disputing charges because part of the rental agreement says that if a th...
re: Alpharetta Ga. Hotels/Lodging in October
Posted by GeorgiaTide on 8/26/16 at 11:47 am
Alpharetta is one of the most wealthy suburbs of Atlanta and the prices will reflect that on hotels. I would imagine you could get around the same ballpark prices on hotels closer to the city and have more things to do. Assuming you're going to Verizon ampitheater, it's not a bad drive up 400 on the...
re: Dachshund owners
Posted by GeorgiaTide on 6/30/16 at 11:57 am
I had a short haired mini as kid, she barely shed at all. She was the best pet I've ever had. She barked maybe 5 times in her life, 100 % housebroken, and she was as friendly as a dog can be. She had bad back problems that we eventually had to put her down for, which is common in the breed. Be very ...
re: How do other states handle Public vs Private in HS football?
Posted by GeorgiaTide on 6/7/16 at 10:39 pm
In Georgia, the stark contrast isn't so much private vs. public as it is city vs. county schools. City schools here are allowed to admit out of district students if they pay tuition and of course the city schools offer scholarships to out of district athletes. This results in the city schools basica...
re: Georgia/Florida/Alabama Relocation
Posted by GeorgiaTide on 6/1/16 at 12:49 pm
I can give a few suggestions for the Atlanta area
1. With the exception of Peachtree City, stay away from the south side of Atlanta.
2. As mentioned above Carrollton is a nice area. I went to college there so I might can help you out a little with it. It's a small college town with great schoo...
re: Braves fans: How does the Braves team look going into spring training?
Posted by GeorgiaTide on 3/3/15 at 11:35 pm
Slightly worse.
Pitching is improved, but offense drops off with hardly any power hitters. I'm expecting a lot of low scoring games this year.

re: Alabama fan goes off on Paul Finebaum
Posted by GeorgiaTide on 10/7/14 at 1:59 pm
[quote]I swear I think Finebaum would actually have sex with Nick if he could. Paul has an opportunity to objectively present the SEC at its best but he fricks it up with his constant love affair with Alabama.[/quote]
You do realize he's a Tennessee grad right? His job is just to stir the pot, and...

re: Browns and Redskins - Who is really each team's best QB?

[quote]Jesus. People really need to pump the brakes with this shite. Shining against 2nd team defense in a quarter of football does not make one a starting QB. [/quote]
It doesn't. I also acknowledge that the Hail Mary would have probably been intercepted or knocked down against a 1st team defense...
re: Going to Helen GA this week - any suggestions on Food and to dos?
Posted by GeorgiaTide on 8/4/14 at 12:15 pm
The Troll Tavern under the bridge in town has pretty good food and a nice view. Cabbage patch doll nursery is 10 minutes down the road in Cleveland and I believe is free to just walk around. If you have small children it would be a good way to spend an hour or two. ...
re: Is Columbia SC a nice city?
Posted by GeorgiaTide on 7/23/14 at 12:16 am
I spent an extended weekend there a few months back and I thought it was clean and safe. Don't remember seeing many places where you'd want to lock the doors driving through like here in Atlanta. Seemed to have a lot of cool restaurants and there's civil war history everywhere you look. ...
