I agree one retard is not a problem. Two are manageable if you work at it.
But three, three? Good God Damned, intolerable.
That would be like working for the mic your entire miserable life.
I digress, we were cooking here ?
There are reasons why beer batter is better than tempura batter.
Nearly the only way to "ruinate" beer batter is if it's too chunky, or too watery and you can measure in your hand.
If I had any idea that you were actually supposed to measure tempura batter's ingredients or not add four extra random spices I would have left that up to the sushie gettin place.
Anyway the pineapple upside down cake was way more forgiving as to any preconceived stupid rules.
9x13 glass baking dish.
Almost 1/2 stick of butter warmed and melted in that pan. Now just to piss off the people in the cook books I took the pan of butter outside and swished it around till it made a layer solidified in the pan.
Hey don't try that without supervision.
Brown sugar to coat the bottom and half jar of maraschino cherries, and a whole fresh pineapple less stems nards and skin cut in chunks.
Took longer to find the box of yellow cake mix than anything. Pour that over the goods and hit it 400 for 12-15 minutes.
Done.
Quick tip on pineapple chunking.
Top and bottom off 90 degrees to the body not crooked like a man bun deuch wattle on the web. Slice into 1/8 ths longitudealy.
Slice off the skin like filleting a fish and lay each piece on its side. A quick trim of the center section to get rid of that chewy stem and your good to go.
Old school classic but no reason not to get a fresh pineapple if possible, like a minute and a half of knife work.
When I was a kid we had the square dish, 4 pineapple slices and the four cherries.
I'm not a kid anymore.
Not trying to flip it for the money shot that's all that is left. Not worth the risk.

Any of you'all ever try to skip line by pretending to tie your shoes to get a piece with the cherry only to get called out for wearing cowboy boots?
Oops.
