It's a lot easier to adore her; trust me....
I found that to be a bad choice chomo.
I found that she was a respectful interesting person though.
She earned it.
But you need to read back a bit when she was full on waR Goddess.
Take your balls use em for dice, just sayin

Yardbird is hard as fuck to impart flavoring to in a reasonable amount of time, so marinating it all night makes sense.

This is what I ended up doing.
Boiled four extra large bouillon cubes and copious amounts of garlic powder, parsley, oregano, and black pepper in about three gallons of water. Packed the broth pot with about seven pounds of the chicken strips and slow cooked at 3 on an electric stove for four hours or so. Transferred the contents of the pot to two gallon-size freezer bags. I set the bags down inside a small box so they'll stand upright when I open them later.
That's the base product. I call cooked and deboned chicken meat a base product because I can make several different dishes from it, such as chicken salad, spaghetti sauce, soup, etc. I usually make the base product by boiling and deboning whole thighs, but I had this fuckload of chicken strips to get rid of.
I don't have a fixed recipe for chicken salad. It's the base product and mayonnaise, plus whatever I have on hand. This time it's chopped apples, onions, celery, and walnuts. I've used grapes and dried apricots before too. Just wash your hands and reach down in that bowl and squish it all together.

Truth. I've always heard though that if you leave it in a very acidic marinade
for longer than four hours [anything with lemon/lime juice, vinegar, ect.] that
it would start to kind of cook the chicken and it would turn out rubbery.
I can kind of agree to an extent with that, it's happened to me a couple times
but for the most part, leaving chicken parts to soak in the fridge overnight
[regardless of what it's in] hasn't been much of an issue. I can live with a
little extra chewy bird as long as it's tasting right!

Goddamn! You weren't fuckin around!! lol
I basically just marinated it on the stove.
I dozed off after I put it in the pot. Awoke to the smell of cooked chicken.
Evidently quite a bit of the broth overflowed into the drip pan under the burner during this process. I had a fun stove fire of semi-alarming size for a few minutes. I just let it burn itself out. I ain't fucking around with a hot burner and open flames together.
The reason I had all of that yardbird is because, being in a poor state like Louisiana, the churches and food banks are feverishly shoveling mass quantities of food into everyone's hands. I'm talking restaurant-sized packages of stuff. It apparently doesn't matter whether you're needy or not.
My mom and sister-in-law make a point of attending every giveaway. I invariably end up having to take their surplus off their hands and redistribute it. My freezer is full. My pantry shelves are collapsing. The lady next door with five kids has dinner for at least a week.
My brother told his wife we need to slow down on the food bank trips, and I told my mom the same thing.

That's a match made in Heaven! lol
After chilling the final product in a gallon freezer bag, I was ready for a burrito.
Or "wrap," as some joints call them, to sound hoity-toity.
Ain't nuffin hoity-toity about this. I gotta use all of this stuff up before it goes bad.
With my fat sack of product in hand, I opened an obscenely large bag of spring mix and rolled some of it with some of the product in a large spinach tortilla.
I'd say the base product is close enough to what I normally make to be a drop-in replacement. It's moist and flavorful. Storing it in the broth will make it even better over the next few days.

Sounds like a good story, maybe true. I guess a person just needs
to accept things and know himself and know her.
Knowing her...you should know adoration works better than the other route.
Who cares what anyone really thinks about MO except MO?
I don't think I need to read anything to recognize a "war goddess" persona.
Thanks for the sentiment though. That was nice. I guess.
