Fieldgrade, Pete, the fellow who made the Chorizo at Lemiere's (sp?) in Battle Mountain moved to Carson City, and has a breakfast and lunch restaurant called the "Basque Deli". He brought his chorizo recipe with him, and has a meat counter in the restaurant.
We used to drive to Battle Mountain and fill up an ice chest to bring home. Now he's down the street.
You are correct, though, best chorizo ever.
