I use coffee, too...gives it a nice "depth" of flavor. I use Cafe Bustelo Espresso, a small cup provides a nice "kick"...

A cup of chili powder? That sounds excessive.

I use a touch of mustard but not enough to identify as mustard, and Korean chili pepper powder. Sweet sausage sounds like a good idea. I don't use coffee but I'll try it next time.

Using "coffee" is no secret.

Marlboro, which I usta smoke, hadda cookbook "pamphlet" out, way back in
the 80s. It was about "chuck wagon cooking", but more importantly, it
hadda lotta recipes using coffee. Even hadda bbq recipe called "Old
Black joe" which was basically mostly strong coffee.

Here's a secret you may not know. I roasted a lotta "decaf" coffee's
(German decaf, SWD decaf, etc) . Only Taster's Choice had any "body".
Taster's Choice was monster in most of my recipes.

I quit using instant coffee when I learned about Nestle's. I need to
get back to using regular coffee, more (moka?). ;)

Korean chili pepoper is the perfcet item! I even use it in 'bang bang'
bread.

The chili I made used a half cup of Korean chili pepper powder with a lb of hamburger. One and a half cups of coffee was also used. The pepper pretty much destroyed any hint that coffee was added. That's the breaks.

What the heck is bang bang bread? I like the name...

That must be your invention since a web search gives nothing. Speaking of nothing, that's what your link provides. That's okay, your description is good enough. I'd be making it immediately but it looks like I won't be making any bread for a while. These days, carbs are a no-no.

It's ok, there's something i didnt click right on the picture so it
didnt share right.

Carbs are a fad no-no right now. Used correctly, they are a non-issue.

I have eaten some carbs recently. What I'm not going to do is bake bread or cook rice. Those are no-nos.

I suppose it depends on whether you are type 2 or type 1!

D has type 2 and has no meds. That was down to food. He has been clear for
so long now that he does have some carbs but his preferences have changed.
Ie today he wants cauliflower rice as a side.

I've been on them, off them, on them again. Now on them and insulin too. For
me, food is the least of my issues.

Type 1's generally do not take meds. They have to take insulin. Type 2's may
or may not take insulin and/or meds. I take both.

I wish it was just down to food for me. There is also type 3 (Alzheimer's)
and 3c.

True or not true? And I don't know - I'm asking...

Seems that with type 2, first is to lose weight, eat less carbs
(and maybe total calories too for the weight thing) then also
start a good exercise regime especially aerobic type exercises.
At least regular long fast walks.

Again.....I'm asking.
Is that basically right?

Provided one is physically capable of long, fast walks. My husband
can manage a stroll of less than 1000 feet. He doesn't yet have
diabetes, but it's only a matter of time, I think.

If you don't have it yet, can't you avoid getting it by adjusting your
lifestyle? Isn't type 2 the result of lifestyle?

Not always, but much can be prevented with keeping weight in check, eating
right, etc., especially complications, some of which are made worse by some
of the medication, especially when people take more and more pills and
insulin because they don't want to change their lifestyle at all.

Does that mean you can pretty much guarantee not getting diabetes 2 at
all by having the right lifestyle and diet?

Not always lifestyle, but very, very frequently.

What adjustment would you suggest for a man who cannot walk
more than 1000 feet (that's about 300 meters), nor at a pace
exceeding a stroll? He will never be capable of exceeding
that performance due to spinal stenosis.

Genetics plays a factor. You can have the right lifestyle and diet,
and still get T2.

In many cases if you are pre-diabetic. In this day and age, they routinely
run tests, they did not do that a lot in the old days at all so many times
people were diabetic for years before they knew it, usually because a
complication arose. There are diabetes newsgroups to discuss further if one
chooses.

Not always lifestyle, but very, very frequently.

What adjustment would you suggest for a man who cannot walk
more than 1000 feet (that's about 300 meters), nor at a pace
exceeding a stroll? He will never be capable of exceeding
that performance due to spinal stenosis.

My uninformed guess is that to avoid getting diabetes in the first
place, losing weight helps, if you're not already at your optimal
weight. And the most efficient way to do that is to eat less. No?

Eat less and/or exercise more.

Honestly, if it were easy, everybody would do it and there wouldn't
be a $66 billion weight loss industry in the United States.

Often when faggot like you writes about food it's enjoyable. When you
aren't writing about food it is rarely enjoyable.

When you write about that cock sucker David I want to hurl.

I guess some people can get away with anything lifestyle wise and not
suffer any consequences. Lucky genes. But they're probably the
exception.

I'm not saying it's easy. But if a doctor said to me "lose weight or
you'll develop diabetes", that would be a huge motivator. And from my
experience, it's much more efficient to lose weight by eating less,
than by exercising. Not that exercise isn't good.
