THE CONDIMENT BRACKET STIRS PASSIONS, IGNITES VIOLENCE

A warning: today's bracket focuses on a topic certain to incite deep passions in our readership and beyond. Please regard others with respect, as always; remember that as a community we are only as good as we are to each other, and that disagreement with your opinion is merely that, and not an indictment of your person, dignity, or intellect. 

That said: BEHOLD THE CONDIMENT BRACKET AND ITS SHOCKING REVELATIONS!

Condiment_bracket_medium

UPPER LEFT QUADRANT: THE ALL-AMERICAN BRACKET. Yellow mustard gets upset right out of the gate in a controversial loss to Buffalo Sauce, which in turn suffers an upset to humble ketchup. Ketchup drives to the final on the basis of its compatibility with cheap meats and starch, a food group that makes up 60% of the American diet. So disappointed in pickle relish, but gravy does what gravy does: covers its targets and saturates the zone, smothering all opposition before going cold and losing to Mayo.

Mayo v. Ketchup is a classic, and no, heathen, the winner cannot be "swirled pink Mayo mixed with Ketchup," because that is fucking horrible. Ketchup advances to the Final Four with its boring halfcourt offense and solid fundamentals.

LOWER LEFT QUADRANT: MOSTLY SPICY BRACKET. A truly brutal bracket with loads of upsets thanks to controversial seeding.  Pickapeppa upsets Tomatillo Salsa right off the bat; Crystal upsets Tabasco in the second round.  Pico loses due to disqualification based on it really being salsa taking up two bids in the tournament. Sriracha upsets salsa in the Elite Eight due to versatility, consistent flavor, and lower water content, completing a rampage through the Mostly Spicy Bracket.

UPPER RIGHT QUADRANT: MOSTLY ASIAN STUFF BRACKET. Soy Sauce was the clear Number One Seed here, though the story of the group became Satay's unexpectedly strong run to the Elite Eight. Most commonly asked question by a confused press corps: "Are you really just peanut butter with vinegar and onions in it?" Satay's coach: "This interview is over." [walks out}

LOWER RIGHT QUADRANT: ETCETERA BRACKET WITH HEAVY EUROPEAN ACCENT. Nutella rampaged through this bracket, causing much controversy thanks to critics who questioned its legitimacy. "You're really just eating hazelnut-flavored chocolate out of a jar and calling it a condiment!" they cried, but Nutella did not listen, obliterating everything before it and slaying mighty Butter in the Elite Eight to make the Final Four. (Butter did have a fine "Bow to your maker" moment versus a strong Hollandaise side in the Sweet Sixteen, however.)

FINAL FOUR: Sriracha's spice was too much for Ketchup to handle, ultimately, and a blowout ensued. Soy Sauce's savory collapsed beneath a wave of chocolate sweet in their matchup, and two uneven Final Four games led to a classic final between Nutella and Sriracha. The game was even until late in the second half when you finally just admitted Nutella was spreadable candy, albeit delicious candy, and awarded the crown to indomitable Sriracha, the king of condiments.

American Bracket?

This is like the little league world series of condiment tournaments. The American bracket is stacked and heavy weights that could have gone deep in a weaker bracket are loosing to buffalo sauce and bbq sauce, suspect work much like the actual ncaa tournament….Has anyone else noticed that a bunch of old dudes in a room are either getting worse and worse at seeding or simply doing it on purpose to create excitement?

franks red hot is a condiment that, like siracha, goes well on everything. franks red hot got screwed. the selection committee screwed up on that one.

I mean, it's just, like, good.

Make sure your beverage glass is full when you get your burger though, because it definitely sticks to the roof of your mouth. Also, you can order with smooth or crunchy PB. Never tried crunchy but I bet it would add a certain something.

it's very good

I tried it crunchy and was absolutely delicious. If you’re ever in desperate need of protein, get yourself to Mugshots for this burger immediately. I don’t usually get it because I like some lettuce on my burger and that shit would not work with peanut butter. But it’s good.

Recently ran across a bastard cheese called Parrano

Technically it’s a Dutch gouda, but it’s developed to take on a heavy parm flavor over a short aging period, making it soft like a gouda but with parm taste. Wanted to hate it, but it’s quite tasty.

Not with barbecue

unless by “barbecue” you mean dried out chunks of meat you can’t force down without sugar-coating them.

Gates makes edible barbecue, if you haven’t had real barbecue in a few years, but Arthur Bryant’s is all atmosphere, and K.C. Masterpiece is a waste of time and money.

the real BBQ places in KC do not have this crappy type of sauce

Just because you can buy it in a store and the label says KC does not KC BBQ sauce make.

Go to:
Smokin Guns in North KC for excellent BBQ and sauces
Jack Stacks for excellent rack of lamb.
and numerous other places for ‘okay I’m in a hurry’ bbq.

My best bbq sauce that I can get up here is the Dinosaur bbq sauce. I don’t really know where that fits into the NC/memphis/KC strata. Can any of you help place that for me so I know which one I like?

Is it sweet?

Is it thick?
Is it smoky?
Is it applied during the cooking process?

If you answered any of these questions in the affirmative, then you are dealing with an inferior product used to mask the fact that the meat wasn’t cooked properly in the first place.

Yes, it’s tomato-based, but it’s spicy, not very thick or smoky, and is only applied after your beef on bun has been plated.

Seeing as my family is originally from KC, this is the gold standard of barbecue.

A piece of Foosackly’s toast dipped in the sauce

Etcetera Bracket was loaded.

Pesto as a 9 seed? Tzatziki a 12? And the top 4 seeds in the bracket are murderous, excepting Selection Committee favorite Tartar Sauce, which is honestly more worthy of a six seed than a 3. Hell, even Worcestershire put together a midseason top 5 ranking, before a few bad losses and poor performance in the conference tournament dropped them down to a 6.

I make the best remoulade sauce. And so does everyone else I know, really. Since everyone makes their own, saying there is 1 recipe is like saying there’s 1 pho recipe in Vietnam or 1 pad thai recipe in Bangkok (snicker). I’ve not tried St. John’s, but I bet I’ve had something similar. It’s hard to screw up a remoulade, though. Even the bad ones are acceptable on some level.

The hardest part was making the spice mix.

It uses a base of Lawry’s, but then there’s a whole bunch of spices that I can’t remember off the top of my head. You make up a big batch of the spice mix, then use small portions to make the remoulade. The good thing is a big batch keeps a while, so you can keep making remoulade without going back and mixing the spices every time.

I have several spice mixes

on hand, actually. I never understand why more people don’t. Yeah, I have a can of Tony’s in my house like any good NOLA boy should, but I rarely use it over one of my own. Too much salt. With my own blends I can regulate the amount of salt and the overall heat level. I have the “ME ONLY” super spicy blend, an herbal blend for lighter fare, and the more generic “WIFE AND KID WON’T HATE ME AND WILL ACTUALLY EAT THIS” blend. I’ve taken to growing my own herbs year round now, so everything coming out of my kitchen these days has an herbal flair to it, for better or for worse.

But yeah, once the base is laid for a remoulade, the sky is the limit. My wife swears by the Arnaud’s recipe – more of an orangy colored sauce. But since she doesn’t cook much (read: “ever”) she’s stuck with my light reddish/pink sauce. Louisiana Fish Fry remoulade will always do in a pinch. Very tasty and not loaded with binders and fillers.

BTW, are we talking store-bought or homemade-with-vegetables-you-grew-in-your-own-damn-backyard variety?*

*Note: last batch was a little too vinegary.

Texas vs. Oakland confirms why I can't watch too much BB and save all my yearly exposure for the tourney,

My hate list of rules in sports are:
1) Designated Hitter
2) Advance ball to half court via timeout (NBA only? not sure)
3) Fucking 3000 timeouts at end of games, see Texas vs. Oakland

I’m solutions oriented, so here it is.

A) Each team gets 5 timeouts total, two regular, one 30 second, and two “reset” timeouts. The “reset” timeouts would be used for when a guy is about to have a 5 second penalty called or maybe isn’t going to make it across half court in 10 seconds, or maybe when a guy gets a rebound and is in danger of getting into a tie ball situation, so before that happens he calls a timeout. With a “reset” timeout, the ball is immediately taken out of bounds like after a normal timeout, but no going over to the bench for coaching.

B) At the end of games, after the clock gets under 2 minutes both teams can call a combined 3 timeouts of the regular/30 second variety (this means if one team calls a regular and a 30 second, the other team can only call one regular or one 30 second). If a team still has more non “reset” timeouts left after the 3 combined TOs have been called, those extra timeouts are converted to a “reset.” The net effect is there can be only 3 real stoppages of the game under 2 minutes, any additional “reset” timeouts won’t be too bad since the ball will immediately be inbounded again. So to clarify, theoretically all 10 timeouts could be called in the last 2 minutes of a game, but only 3 would be real stoppages, the other 7 (at most) would be immediate inbounding of the ball.

C) I would also sign on to reducing the initial allotment from 5 to 4 timeouts, with the deduction being from the regular timeouts so each team ends up with 1 reg, 1 30, and 2 “reset” at the start of the half.

Basketball games feel the most contrived of any sports with how different the last minute or so is from the rest of the game, and it sucks. If teams weren’t able to call so effing many TOs my guess is that overall, the better team will still win most often, just like it probably is now, only we’d all be saved about 5-10 minutes of our lives.

And 1 point for each basket scored when the players hand releases the ball in the cylinder or touches the rim.

You only get 1 point from the charity stripe 15.5 feet away, why should you get two for point blank stuffing?

Now you’ve got 1, 2, and 3 point shots. Choose your poison.

I would almost go for that except we know

that it would never fly cause we gots to have the dunking to keep eyeballs on the screen (see WNBA) and secondly, I feel like if a player is able to get close enough to dunk, than the other team deserves to have two scored on them.

You could almost argue that dunks should be worth 3 points, it would certainly encourage some teams to become uber athletic and make for an exciting brand of ball. Of course, said team would eventually lose to a bunch of white stiffs who actually play defense and can shoot from beyond 3 feet away.

Yep, that's what I see. I'd also like to see the shot clock banished so

Chapel Hill can 4 corner a better team to death, and I can switch channels to watch Top Gear rather than a 32-28 Final Four.

The last word on the Ketchup controversy.

“God this stuff isn’t getting to me – the shootings, the knifings, the beatings. Old ladies being bashed in the head for their social security checks. Nah that doesn’t bother me. But you know what does bother me? You know what makes me really sick to my stomach? It’s watching you stuff your face with those hotdogs! Nobody – I mean nobody puts ketchup on a hot dog!”

Concur,

As a child I put ketchup on dogs, but as I grew I began to think as an adult and put away childish ways.

At first, I thought it was a travesty that Marmite was not included.

But then, I saw Vegemite, which is Clemson to Marmite’s Auburn.

Fuck Vegemite.

My only argument is you're stupid.

by boddagettaflyer on Mar 18, 2011 3:38 PM EDT reply actions  

So does this mean

Vegemite is Marmite with a lake?

Are Lay's Chips a condiment
