Re: Red Wine

SJ,

Haven't seen George since I went his bail. Nope, just busy as all get out; no time for anything. I'm planning a sort of paella pan stand next to my oven. Think I'll have Lloyd Johnston the blacksmith make something up for me in steel, then cover it with Matrilite 18, then clad it with veneer stone. Hoping to mostly use materials that mysteriously fell off the back of a passing truck.

Re: Red Wine

CJ is top trader here...got a paella pan delivered too! Wonder if it's seen fire yet???

Where is CJ anyway? Off with George?

Re: Red Wine

I did make it to sams. It is a very nice store. I thought the prices where a little high. But they do have a very nice selection. Talk about missing it by a month. I didn't get a notice on you last reply myself. Here it is almost July.

Re: Red Wine

Did you make it to Sams??

Re: Red Wine

The main location as far as I know if off North Avenue, north of town.

Definately worth the detour!!

Re: Red Wine

It's either here or there, just depends on your perspective

I'm your neighbor in Michigan but I like to hang out in Spain

have you ever been to Sams wines in Chicago? I think it's the largest wine store in the world......

Jim I bought a black box of the cab yesterday. Pretty good. My taste run a little dryer than that. I am going to be in Chicago this weekend for the Kitchen & Bath show. I don't know if I'll have time to look up the Sams wines. I pulled them up online to get an address. They have several locations. Do you have a favorite location?

Re: Red Wine

Okay, you guys,

Where's the barter end of the equation? Currently, I have on hand fresh herbs from Joeengineer, pecans from Dave (not many left, too good) and White Lily Flour from Dutch. This is all prime material I can't get here. It's a good way to go, so get cracking.

Patience CJ, I am bringing you a nice paella pan, hopefully a home delivery
Maybe some local rice and smoky paprika as a bonus....

Re: Red Wine

Thanks for the tip. I haven't tried any box wine in some years. I am a red man myself. With the taxes up so high on alcohol, It's hard to find a good reasonably price wine. Is the Midwest here & Florida there? If so where is here?

Re: Red Wine

Yes the name is Black Box and it comes in a black box.

Red and white, about 6 varities. I like the Cab and the Merlot and also comes in some whites like chardonnet. (I'm a red guy)

I buy at Meijer in the midwest, Publix? in Florida....seen it in a lot of grocery stores...priced from $18-26

Re: Red Wine

Is black box wine the name? Does it come in a box or in bottles? Does it come in red & white? Where should I look for it? Never heard of it before.

Re: Red Wine

I have found the "black box wines" to be pretty good value....works out to 4 or 5 bucks a bottle....caution though, it pours easy!

[mannextdoor]

Re: Red Wine

WOW! And it's clearly marked as such. Mannextdoor, how much is that? Less than 2 buck chuck? My wife bought a bottle the other day called "Oops" - they nailed it, tasted like crap.

Les...

Just checked out you pictures. WOW Your self. What a great job. Just started clearing a place for kitchen with WFO. Will start posting some photos soon. Will include some before photos as well.

Re: Red Wine

The price of the Cheap Red Wine was $7.00 In Hawaii this past January. And for Hawaii that was as cheap as it got and to still be able to drink it. Really wasn't all that bad. I have had much worst.
