Chicken Sous Vide with Mashed Potatoes & Giblet Gravy
I began with an entire chicken cut up, vacuum packed and cooked in the Sous Vide Supreme just like the Maiden Voyage. The one difference was that because of the bones, I left it in for four hours. It was still just as moist & tender. I also decided to go with a treat of……...

Can Your HDL Be Too High?
As many of you know, my own HDL runs in the 130s, at least last I checked some months ago. How? Lots of fat — particularly saturated animal and coconut fat — in my diet. Then, "John," whose issues with cholesterol I profiled here emailed a few days back to let me know that life’s……...

Is There Really Any Such Thing As Low-Fat Eating?
Low-fatters are fooling themselves — especially vegans, vegetarians, and high-fiber advocates This should be fun. Ok, I’m going to call stupid right off the bat. No; just ignorant, and this includes some top names. Why? I figure it like this: if Dean Ornish, Joel Fuhrman, John McDougall, T. Collin Campbell and others are ignorant about this……...

Finger Lickin’ Good: Crispy Beef & Eggs
Quick, easy & delicious — and you should eat it with your fingers, as I did. Crispy Beef Eggs It requires some leftover beef that’s tender enough to shred, some eggs, and some butter. First, spread the beef out on a cookie sheet and fire under the broiler on the low setting, mid height in……...

Two ADAs: Same Awful Advice
Whether you’re talking ADA, as in, American Diabetes Association or, ADA as in American Dietetic Association, the advice is the same and the effects are the same: not helpful at best, deadly at worst. This is a sort of follow-on to my recent post on registered dietitians. One of my readers, Steve Cooksey, offered to……...

Pictures & Thousands of Words
They’re often unnesessary…the words, that is. My friend Art recently redid his whole blog and here’s the photo on the entry page for the private portion. He’s 71 years of age in this photo. Art DeVany In case you don’t know, once I got started in May 2007, I didn’t really start until I found……...

A Little Update For Longtime Readers Still Lurking About
This isn’t going to be relevant for the vast majority of readers, so it’ll be short; and so please bear with me. It sorta pertains to this in the sense that one reason the paleo-libertarians have come a callin’ is because I was a libertarian political blogger from ’03 until I went full paleo diet-nutrition last……...

Registered Dietitians Dispense Only Conventional “Wisdom”
Here’s a look in general terms at just what we’re up against, folks — particularly for our friends & loved ones who tend to take stock in the advice offered by "experts" and "authorities." For many of you it’s and upside-down world. You logically come to reasonable hypotheses based on evolutionary principles, do your research,……...

Discussion List For Liberty Minded Paleos
This is to announce the creation of a Google Groups discussion list for the many of us who have discovered that modeling the best from the Paleo Principle seems to appeal in large measure to the many variations of what I’ll [very] loosely refer to and emphasize as small-L libertarians. I wish to make that distinction……...

The Paleo Principle is Neither Authoritative nor Dogmatic
I had to stop and make sure my readers — if they haven’t already — see what I’m going to link to, as it’s critically important. First, let me give you an intro from my perspective. I have some fears that the "paleo" phenomena –seemingly growing in popularity — risks becoming a victim of its……...

Back in Animal Mode
After a three day weekend in San Francisco and not even taking my Mac outta the bag, I’m back, and off a solid 9 hours of sleep. Rarin’ to go. Lots of stuff to read from some of you — emails, comments & such. And I have a draft of a post that’ll go out……...

Sous Vide: Scrambled Eggs, Bavette, Pork Chops & Pears
I increasingly can’t get enough of this. And I’ll be at it again tonight — ribeye steaks for dad, I think. Two evenings ago I decided to try the scrambled eggs. I got the desired custard consistency.
