Hats and Drinks - A Match Made in Heaven

[Hurricane Jack]

You really have me interested in the Tex-Mex style. Whenever I go out for Mexican food, I usually drink Negro Modelo, but I like Dos Equis also. I usually throw away the lime. Maybe I should rethink this.

I drink Negra Modelo & Especial both but this place does a great job on preparing the Tex-Mex style & the Amber is great. Plus they refrigerate their shot glasses so I usually have a couple shots of Tequila after my dinner. Good stuff!

Don't get much better than that! Maybe some menudo for later.

Ha Ha, not me! There's a Mexican Cafe here where they make menudo once per wk or so. When they're making it I can't get within 3 blocks of the place!

One of my dad's drinking buddies was Mexican, and made the best menudo. He would cook it for many hours. Parties at their house was a blast! There is a Mexican cafe/take out, near me that has pretty good menudo, but not like Lou Trujillo's!

No offense to anyone but I think the only way I could ever try it would be to hold my nose & sop it up with a hard bread roll.

My mother is from Mexico. There are 2 things she is exceptional at making. One of them is menudo, and the other is chicken mole. Both recipes are generations old. If I had to choose a last meal between the two, it would be very difficult!

Or just a little more tequila! Really, there is good menudo and bad menudo. My wife thinks it's all bad.

I also love chicken mole. Don't tell me she made good tamales too!

I went to a restaurant once that had menudo and ordered it. I couldn't even smell it. It was disgusting. Really bad menudo is absolutely terrible.

As far as tamale's go, mom's tamale's are, how can I say it? Terrible. My wife, on the other hand, makes exceptional tamales.

Enjoying a couple of Dos Equis Ambers on Taco Tuesday, served Tex-Mex style with lime pulp & salt around the rim of a cold 16 oz schooner.

Thanks DD, appreciate that. It does have a bit of cup in the flange like an OR does. It just doesn't show in pics.

I noticed it, most of my older Resistols have a slight flange. One of the reasons I like them.

Thanks Bowen. It's a deep brick crease. I've gotten recently to where I like the brick as something different. And I like the flange with just a slight bit of cup (call it an A cup) on this style hat. In the pic with the hat on the dash you can see a bit of the Sage undertones with the Sand Peble. I wished the color photographed better.

Here's another one of my bricks:

Thanks DD. I can't do the Cattleman as smooth & nice as you do, especially the pinches.
