The day I discovered refried black beans and how great they are in a taco.
Last Ditch Attempt to Eat the Best of Austin
DiMassi's Med. Buffet is pretty awesome, especially since there is a lack of middle eastern options. Along those lines, you should check out AlBorz on W. Anderson. Great Iranian stuff, although dinner is a little pricey.
It's too bad Austin doesn't have anything Turkish. You'll have to come over to our place for that.

I pray to the sweet Lord that you've been to Homeslice, although you probably snub your nose at TX pizza since you have NYC heritage. I'll come up for a Lombardi's run sometime.
Also, I will have you over for one last epicurean feast. Let me know a good date/time for you.
How much pig for this party?
I've cooked a 25lb-er for 10 alcohol fuel college students. More than enough. Under normal conditions, 25lbs would have probably fed 15-20. I'd shoot for a 35-40lb pig, which seems to be consistent with the 1lb/person rule of thumb that pooch recommended.

Grilled june bugs. Not my finest moment.

Cheesecake grilled cheese.
Bacon making question
One can forego the pink salt route entirely by making your own cure with a tsp. or so of saltpetre (poatassium nitrate). I've done this with excellent results.
Homemade liqueurs
I've got a sichuan peppercorn infusion going right now and it's "interesting" to say the least. For cocktail use, sparingly is the key word, but it does liven up things quite a bit.
Where to Eat: SXSW 2009
Serious eaters in town should probably travel north to the Asian district for Din Ho Chinese BBQ, Lily's Vietnamese Sandwich, and about 800 other noodle houses.
In Defense of Chef Chris Cosentino's Foie Gras
This is really a great treatise on liberty and political behaviors that just happens to be about foie gras. Chris could just as easily be talking about another hot topic issue, say gun control, without any change in the logic behind his arguments.
At any rate, I'll have to try and celebrate by consuming more than my per capita 1/400 of an ounce.
Got Breast Milk?
My ideas for breast milk yogurt and cheeses got shot down when my wife had our baby girl. For shame...

Hard to decide between roast leg of lamb or lamb shanks. Love them both!
Cook the Book: 'How to Roast a Lamb'
Take butterflied leg of lamb. Add rosemary, garlic wine. Wait. Grill. Yum.

I'm an Aussie who misses weekly Sunday lamb roasts (so much more expensive over here and more of a hunt to get the right quality). However, when I do cook up a lamb roast I am 100% for simplicity - garlic and rosemary and lots of roasted veggies in the same pan to absorb the juices. I also like some simple jus or gravy from the juices at the end.
Cook the Book: 'How to Roast a Lamb'
I used to make candied ginger and use the syrup for ginger ale. Then we made ground lamb patties with chopped candied ginger and mint leaves mixed in one night. Mmm...gotta do that again.
