Baldur's Gate

[Dizz]

I was looking at my old docs and I found this from an old Baldur's Gate game:

I think it was an item on a villain. I used to have the recipe for Monkey balls, but I lost it.

Barbequed Elf Ribs:

2 TBSP paprika

2 TBSP ground mustard

2 TBSP Dark brown sugar

1 tsp cayenne pepper

1 tsp KOSHER salt (normal iodized table salt is MUCH, MUCH saltier!!!)

3 cloves of garlic, minced

1 cup FINELY chopped onion

1 cup worstershire sauce

1 cup cider vinegar

1/4 cup of butter

ketchup.

combine dry spices in a bowl with the worsh sauce and vinegar, let them dissolve.

melt butter in a large saute pan, add onions and garlic, saute until tender.

everything else from that mixing bowl, bring to a boil.

thats your marinade, take about a quarter of it and reserve it, throw your elf ribs (although pork ribs/chops/tenderloin works as does chicken and beef... pork is probably the best though) into the other 3/4 of it and completely submerge if possible.

let the meat marinate for 4 hours.

heat your grill, and cook pork to at least 140 degrees (its hot enough to kill trichonosis, but it will be a nice high-end medium)... if you're broke and have to use the broiler in your oven it will work, but char-broiled is much better.

take the reserved liquid and whish ketchep into it until it becomes a barbeque sauce... i generally use about 14 ounces of ketchep (i think), so if it tastes off keep adding the ketchep.

thats it, this is seriously the BEST barbeque recipe i have come across since i started cooking professionally, its simple, cheap and you'll be using that bbq sauce on EVERYTHING, it kicks *** on fries!

enjoy!

Where are you going to get the elves? I can't find any, that's why I haven't made them yet. :/

[elfdude]

The mall, you have to freeze them because I can't find them all year

Can you get baldurs gate to work on windows xp? I've never been able to!

[Dizz]

^^^^^^^^^^^^ Hey! An elf! Get him!

emote throws a net over elfdude.

(And yes, it worked for me on XP. I dunno about BG1 though)

[elfdude]

I know two works, not sure about one. mine is warez'd too shhhh

[Chayesh]

Yes, BG1 and 2 both work on XP

I finished Baldur's Gate, the expansion, Baldur's Gate 2, and that expansion with the same character, a solo mage. Despiser himself can vouch for it, as can several others I was in contact with at the time.

I went close to madness, but I did it. Nothing can stand before the power of magic, in any universe. Except maybe this one, as I can't seem to really get it to work in my daily life. No fireballs, teleportation, or the like.

Yet.

Mages suck hard in the first BG...That is, until level 5 or so.

I think my favorite I've played out of the piles I have saved is a 3 Fighter, dual classed into a cleric. Put points into blunt weapons, and took Bassilus' +2 Warhammer.
