No doubt, but if/when I leave LA, I'm going to miss In/Out Double Doubles and Broguiere's Egg Nog.

We had an In/Out here in Tampa for maybe six months before it closed down.  I guess it's a regional taste.

OK, enough of the InNOut talk, I'm getting hungry!!!

That is an exceptional sort of place for a fast food joint.

Walter Sobchak: He lives in North Hollywood on Radford, near the In-and-Out Burger...
The Dude: The In-and-Out Burger is on Camrose.
Walter Sobchak: Near the In-and-Out Burger...
Donny: Those are good burgers, Walter.
Walter Sobchak: Shut the f##k up, Donny.

Is it just me or does anyone else think of something besides burgers when discussing In-and-Out Burger?

A Clockwork Orange - a little of the old in/out......

Here's a unique (and apparently traditional)  spin on Egg Nog...an older, but still interesting article---

Ok, true story.. when that movie came out I was living at Radford and Magnolia in North Hollywood. The In and Out isn't near Radford damnit! It's at Lankershim and Califa.

Hell, Camrose is over in Hollywood!

My wife's grandfather lives near Lankershim and Strathern.  Didn't know there was an In N Out over there, might have to make use of that on future visits.

Tubercle's eggnog recipe:

 1. Buy what ever is on sale at the grocery store, the cheaper the better.
 2. Put unopened carton of eggnog in fridge
 3. What Loopy said... 4 fingers of Ol' Granddad (minimum) with one cube of ice...re-apply as necessary.
 4. After a couple of months, open carton of eggnog and pour spoiled contents down sink.
 5. Discard now empty carton.

1 carton egg nog from the dairy section, about 6 oz in an 8 oz glass. 1 oz dark rum. It's the finest of nog drinks. 

I use rum as well.  I just can't get with bourbon and nog.  I toss it in the blender w/ ice cubes.  Kiddie glasses first, then add rum for the adult glasses.  Used spiced rum this year.  Its funny but everyone likes the ice cubes blended in.

Anybody drink this stuff ?

2qts whole milk
1 pint 40% cream
1 dozen egg yolks  
2 pints bourbon
1/2 cup Jamaican Rum
1 cup brandy
1/2 lb powdered sugar
1/2 gal premium egg nog ice cream

That's boozy. You want a balance of creaminess and snockerability!  I just go with rum and cognac or bourbon and cognac, where the liquor is no more than 25% of the nog and the cognac is 10% of that. I scald my milk and cream, add sugar, mix, then temper and add eggs (4 whole and 2 yolks) which cooks them.  Add the booze and fold whipped cream and the last two egg whites, beaten to stiff peaks.

2 cups cream from top of fresh raw milk. preferably from Jersey cows.

That reminds me of a joke that I heard at the '95 NHC in Baltimore,

What do cows from New Jersey say?
"F#@kin' moo."

[skyler]

One thing I have to say is whatever egg nog you make, it will be better if you use Rye Whiskey (Jim Beam Rye is fine) as the alcohol. Way better than rum, brandy, or bourbon - rye just makes an egg nog great.
