I've always wanted to go to DAE. I mean, indoor ski hills? Get the #### out of town.

Thread should've been called "You know what really grinds my pepper?"

You're all forgetting the best kind of Pepper.

Dr. Pepper.

Disagree with you on the OP though. Fresh ground pepper smells and feels better. Smell is half of the taste.
Is it with pepper? You should go home and take a nice whiff of some ground pepper. Make sure to get your nostrils as close as possible to maximize the effect.

Perhaps we should start rating restaurants, cities, countries and continents by the quality of their peppercorns?

Well I can tell you Bonaire does not have good peppercorns (somebody brought some back for me). Very tasteless. Salt's good, though. Come to think of it, I don't know if they produce their own peppercorns. Either way, don't go there for the pepper.

Does anyone else aerate their Dr. Pepper and keep it in a crystal decanter?

Have you done a side-by-side comparison? Intuitively, I've always thought the same thing; however, it finally donned on me that the little packet of ground pepper from McDonald's has more flavour than me twisting my $80 pepper mill 20 turns. So I bought one of those cardboard rolls of salt and pepper shakers from Safeway for like $2 or something (the kind you'd grab to go camping, then throw out after the trip). Sure as hell, the pepper in that thing tasted 10x better/stronger than the crap from any number of pepper mills.

Anyway, check it out. I think you'll find I'm right.

Oh soo close.


It isn't until the 25th turn that the taste really come out.

I prepare my Dr. Pepper with a dash of ground pepper which I gently pepper over the foam and then pour into makeshift cups that I make from bell peppers. It keeps away the lepers and I do this for my gf and I and I find it adds some bounce to my step and some pep into hers.

Pepper pepper pepper.

The 3rd coffee was a bad pepper.

I wish NBC would not block this SNL sketch in Canada:

http://snltranscripts.jt.org/94/94dpepper.phtml

Carlo: Fresh-a pepper?

Male Diner #3: On my chocolate mousse? No thank you.

Carlo: Say when. [ begins to grind pepper onto the chocolate mousse ]

Male Diner #3: No! [ Carlo keeps grinding ] Hey, cut it out, come on!

Carlo: Say when.

Male Diner #3: No, come on! Don't!

Carlo: Say when
!

Male Diner #3: No, come on! Come on!

Carlo: [ places the grinder between his legs, gridning the pepper toward the mousse as though he were humping the table ] Say when! Say when! Say when! Say when!

This is actually a reasonable thing to take a stand on, Internet-wise.

Silver, my wife has also fooled herself into thinking that a pepper grinder is the way to flavour heaven. I have for years fought for the convenience and economy of pre-ground pepper.

I get my pepper at Silk Road Spice Merchant and it's excellent...

Is it possible to de-rail this thread onto a discussion of great spice blends?

You would.

I get my pre-ground pepper at Scarpone's, and it is a fine thing.

Honestly though, Silk Road Spice Merchant is a great place. A good place to go get mulling spice!

No I think you should start a new thread for that. Totally different subject matter being dealt with here.

Pepper is like ketchup. It can be free if you try.

Just get a handful of the pepper packs (Like the ketchup packs) at fast food places and watch your grocery bills plummet.

I think if you're going to directly quote a comedian, you should put quote marks around the quote. Even better if you attribute the quote to the source.

This is srz business.
