Tonight's Supper/Dinner was/is ?

Homemade cream of chicken soup with Gnocchi and spinach, and a mixed greens salad with avocado, cucumbers, red onion, shredded chicken, dried cranberries, with homemade lemon/honey vinaigrette, and hearty grain rolls.

Enough soup left to freeze and save for cold rainy days, which seems to be a trend here.

Tonight,......?

Lunch was chile Colorado, shredded cheese, and two brown eggs from the farmers market. Runny yokes, spicy poke, and melted cheese......Mmmmmm.

Pizza with tomatoes, basil, onions, bell pepper, mushrooms, Italian sausage (from my elk) and dry Gallo salami. Should be shoveling in 10 minutes.

Pork tacos!

Fried pork chops, mashed potatoes, gravy, Brussel sprouts, and blush, butter pecan ice cream for desert.

Dinner turned into menudo and a salad.

it was delivered to my hotel room....

I bought some chicken leg quarters on sale and boiled them.

Sort of.

Simmered til tender with S&P (lots of S), garlic powder, and chili powder.

Then I let them cool.

I plucked all the meat off the bones with my fingers.

Then I made burritoes ... flour tortillas, sour cream, salsa, Tapatio, and done.

It was veddy good.

My wife and I were "re-introduced" to brussel sprouts recently.......and have really been enjoying them. I had always heard the "stories" about them...but even 2/3rds of our children seem to like them now.

Veal stuffed peppers

Red Baron Wednesday[but we do add bacon].

I made a beet borscht with elk burger and carrots. Topped with a little dollop of sour cream and served with a seeded baguette and a wedge of Stilton.

Her fav dessert was canned pears with a spoonful of MW and a cherry.

Gin and cranberry to wash it down. Maybe three.

Denny, if you're too old and crusty for dessert, well, a vitamin V pill might help. Or just go see Alice.

Never said you were.

As for Lynn...thinking she can pretty much post whatever her heart tells her too. As can you and I buddy!! Regardless of the section.

Keep on smiling!!

She likes to troll for attention- Some like to give her attention.
I figure it works out for both and I don't need to give a chit about it.

Roast chicken and a mix of rice and quinoa with black eyed peas. It wasn't half bad.

The real issue here is somebody introduced DVD to grits and now the damn Yankee has gone and put miracle whip on 'em.

Ain't nothing sacred?

Your PM's to others about me are becoming stale Denny, honestly.

I really do wonder why a man of your self proclaimed class would have spent all that time in the past PM'ing with me, and posting with me, a woman you deem to be a lowly whore. I kept it all, PM's and postings, including the last one.

You seem to have far too much interest in me and my life, others on here have no use for me at all, but they seem to be able to post on the same threads and not get twisted, it sounds like something you might like to try, or even better still, put me on ignore.

Just a quick question here does your wife know you have this kind of deep seeded interest in me ?

Dave knows you do, and wonders what your motive is, other than attention. He would be more than happy to talk to you, on the phone or in person, so he can explain to you what part of him is sugar and what part of him is daddy.

BTW, I love the signature line

Alex, I'll take ignore for 2 bucks.

But never,never,never ever called you a lowly whore.

Has the booze clouded your memory, the things you wrote on this forum and in PM's to me ? I have not, I have them, all of them.

BTW, a whore gets paid for her favours, and a woman with a sugar daddy gets paid off for her favours, you know that right ?

This is not over, promise.

I've been searching for a sugar momma, but apparently no one thinks my favors are worth paying for.

Go figure.

Making bean soup and gonna add butter as advised.

If you steered me wrong then you gonna' be my sugar mama!!

As far as dinner goes....Beef Barley Mushroom soup with hot biscuits....

Made barley soup last Sunday!

Left over lamb roast cut up, pile of chopped carrot, a parsnip, some onion and a handful of chopped parsley. Used up some chicken and beef stock I had. And of course barley. S&P.

Came out pretty damn good! Always forget how much barley swells! Ended up with a FULL pot. Lol.

That sounds good.....
I know what you mean about the barley swelling....my recipe yields about 1.5-2 quarts of soup....that's with 1/4 cup of barley....
Due to scar tissue in my throat caused by radiation treatments a decade ago I like my soup a little on the mushy side so I soak the barley like you would beans....

Thus far I've made a pot of chili, 15 bean/ham soup with "butter"

, NE clam chowder and I'm about to bring out the big gun commercial mixer and make up some toffee butter brickle cookie dough. More butter!!

Maybe put on a pot of venison-beef stew in the morning.

Might even make some deviled eggs with pig candy. Anyone noticed how deviled eggs are kind of the new "in" food?

Anyway, after that I don't care what this weather creates!!

Go Panthers!!

Ok, to be fair, this is one of the meals from Blue Apron. We signed up about 6 months ago. We look at the menu and then once a month or every six weeks we look at the three meals they are sending and we go ahead and let them send them. It runs $60 for three meals so it's not cheap but at $10/serving it's not too bad. The ingredients in our experience are top rate and they include everything but oil salt and pepper.

The sizes are perfect for two people and there is a family sized meal if you need larger. The directions are pretty much foolproof and I've learned a couple techniques and certainly used ingredients that I would not have otherwise. The other two snowy weekend meals are

- Roast Pork with Sautéed Spinach &Olive Smashed Potatoes
- Cod & Potato Brandade with Watermelon Radish Salad & Garlic Toasts

Yes, I have a couple yards of cookbooks but when you're gone 12-15 hours a day between work, gym, traffic it's kind of fun to find a box on the doorstep with some interesting meals when you have a chance to pour a glass of wine and cook and relax with my wife.

You tell me how much sugar momma cost, then you post a pic of a plastic wrapped cucumber and olive oil?

Dude……….

Happy Birthday Sean!

The plastic wrapped cucumber was supposed to go into a cucumber, black olive, sweet onion, tomato, vinegar and oil + spices salad.

I didn't have any tomatoes though.

Phugg.

No salad.

Last night.... Carnitas super nachos from the local Chavez market.

Looking good there, Dan.

Dan that soup looks great.

It's about time to get something fired up here. Maybe beef stew or NE Clam Chowder. Although, now I want to make a pot of chicken soup!

BUT I haven't even eaten what I made yesterday!!

Thinking I enjoy cooking more than eating these days!!

Dan, that soup is looking darn good.

Boiled eggs, whole wheat toast, and tea. Just was not up to eating really, but diabetics have to eat even if they do not want to

Miss Lynn that sounds like a prison meal
Hope you feel better

We are doing our version of stir-fry: chicken based, with carrots, celery, green onion, bok choy, cauliflower, napa cabbage, and spinach also involved. We are trying out a sauce mix that I found the other day.

After a day of a mix of clearing snow and doing some computer work decided we enjoyed a treat so ended up with Orecchiette Carbona. We haven't done it in a while and really enjoyed it.

The plan here is, Iowa Chop, a center cut pork chop about an inch, and a half thick, broiled, mashed potatoes, gravy, Brussels sprouts.

Smothered pork chops and a bean salad.

The smothered chops were outstanding. I mean flat kick azz. A pig has to be the finest animal ever created. Allah and the Jews were just trying to keep 'em all for themselves.

Should have made a pot of rice or potatoes to go with, but trying to cut back on carbs. Though, if there was a tater in the house, it would of been in trouble!

Sick and feeling lazy tonight but wanted to contribute since I enjoy this sub forum so much!

Pork tenderloin roast, rice, green beans and a caprese salad.

There were spices and such in each dish to round them out and I will only mention one in particular atm...

Finishing a pork roast with thai chili sauce as a glaze is delightful...

Hope the Food Forum is well in 2016!

Regards

My wife made a chicken cous cous recipe. I was busy with something, lighting the fire or some such and didn't get to it when she got hers. I saw her sitting eating it and asked how it turned out. She said "it's a little spicy". She's not as "tolerant" of spicy (HOT, not as in "well seasoned spicy") stuff, but she will keep up with me sometimes and eats stuff I cook so I knew something was up.

Yes, it was hot, pleasantly so, not overwhelming. Besides a couple of things I knew she put in there from the smell, I wondered what she had done to get the heat. I make some coarse ground hot pepper flakes from ones I grow and dry, but I didn't see any flakes in the dish. I also so no overt "redness" or chili type coloration. I was dying to know, so asked. She says "well, we were out of cayenne so I saw some "Hawai'ian" stuff you have up there in the cupboard".

We got really lucky!!. Fortunately, the recipe called for only an 1/8 teaspoon of cayenne. She didn't really measure, just guessed about that much of my stuff. Much more and we could have had a disaster. She had found my "Hawai'ian Ghost" ground peppers. My sister got them for me when she was last there. It is HOT stuff. Dangerously hot! An 1/8 teaspoon for a pound or so of chicken and a pot of cous cous with broccoli in it and it's quite delightful, for me and my wife. I know many folks would turn away after a few bites.

Now to understand better, I grow peppers most every year, for eating fresh, drying, and making salsa and "hot sauce" (think Tabasco and such). This year included everything from bell, ancho, and Anaheim on the mild side, to serrano, tabasco, Thai dragon, cayenne, and Habanero on the warmer end, with a few in the middle too. For me to say tonight's dinner was pleasantly hot is probably an understatement for those that think Pace picante sauce, even the jar marked that way, or a jalapeno is "hot".

My wife done good tonight, without even knowing she was doing it!

I hope you all had a nice dinner too!

Ham and scalloped potato casserole, with heavy cream, a light addition of five year old cheddar reserve, and a touch of nutmeg. Fresh green beans and crusty bread

That more like it MissLynn!

Last night was pork centre loin, cut into 2 finger thick "steaks", S&P & sprinkle both sides with smoked paprika.

'bout 2 minutes a side in a smoking hot cast iron pan & then into a warm oven for 5 minutes, remove, tent & let rest for another 5.

Sides were sautéed sweet peppers & thin sliced cremini mushrooms, finished with a good dash of balsamic vinegar & sweet potato medallions (skin on), roasted at 350* in a little Olive oil & dab of butter + S&P.

Glass of Pinot Noir was a nice accompaniment !

That's what I made 2 weeks ago!!! I had scalloped potatoes for a week!!

Luckily there is a very nice older gentleman close by that lives near the river, I gave him about half the casserole so he could have a little something for dinner tonight, and leftovers to boot ! He was quite pleased actually

Ha! I don't need a BGE, I need a covered patio!

Roasted beets, Pacific cod slathered in mayonnaise (the olive oil kind) with a very generous sprinkling of paprika baked in the 375f oven after the beets were roasted, along with a thick slice of homemade sourdough oat raisin bread (that has some grated orange zest in it too!).

My wife was a happy lady, she loves roasted veggies and fish.

I was too, the mayo/paprika method is one of my all time favorites for flaky white fish.

PS, you guys had me going through the mental database for the meaning of BGE. Finally got it.

We tried something new[yet old] last night.

Lite bread cut[with a glass] to fit in the bottom of a muffin pan. One cooked[not crispy] slice of bacon wrapped around the inside on top of the bread disk, enough cheese inside the bacon[on top of bread]almost to the top and then topped off with an egg and some green onions.
Oven @ 400 for 15 minutes.

dang tasty and no pics.

Whole wheat, real mayo and Oscar Mayer. No cheese, but it was delicious.

I'll take mine fried and on toasted bread

We did one of our easier and tastier meals last night and I ate it for lunch today.

One bag of frozen chicken breasts, usually 5 breasts in a bag.
One jar medium or mild salsa
Half a tablespoon of lime juice
Teaspoon each of cumin and chili powder
Can of black beans
Bag of fresh spinach
One Avocado

Thaw and trim the chicken breasts and place either in a crockpot or pyrex dish. Pour salsa over the time and mix around. Cook either 3hrs on high in crockpot or 45min at 375F in oven. When there's about 15min remaining, mix up the lime juice, cumin, and chili powder and pour over the top. When it's done, shred the chicken into bit-sized pieces, leaving it in the dish/crockpot.

Ladle the chicken/salsa mixture onto fresh spinach and add a few tablespoons of black beans. Top with avocado and light sour cream. Makes a jam-up good tex-mex style salad with lots of protein and minimal carbs. My kids dig it also with a few tortilla chips crumbled over the top and a bit of shredded cheese.

A buddy of mine and I made fried bologna sandwiches for a friends wedding about a year and a half ago. 3/8" thick, grilled onions, with all the fixings, chili beans, and a green salad. DAMN was it good.

Bride and groom went with camo and pink, outdoors at the Woodlake Rodeo grounds. One of.. The best wedding I have ever attended. When the pastor said you may kiss the bride, he turned to us and yelled "cut'em boys"! We emptied a 44 mag, 45 acp, and two 12 gauge shotguns!

Best part was we presented the bride with pie, proclaiming cake gave every women lock jaw!

Even the pastor had too many beers from the wash tubs!

We absolutely love hamburger soup at home. My oldest insists on potatoes being an ingredient, and the youngest adds a handful a tiny pasta of here choice. A steaming bowl of the soup and crusty bread or rolls slathered in butter, and they are a houseful of happy campers !

Two things I don't care for are peas and salmon
That plate is what would be served to me in hell

enjoy

On the docket here tonight is pepper steak over German noodles.

Tonight is Pelee Island Pheasant with mushrooms and garlic in a cream sauce over a baked potatoe. Its is really good.

I was doing something similar a few weeks ago. ( I think I was adding turnips to my bean soup ) My mom commented she had an Aunt that used to make Saturday Refrigerator soup. Whatever was left in there from the week went for a swim! Said it was pretty good more often than not. Definitely a great way to utilize what you have and cut down on waste.

Lynn, those porcupine balls sound pretty good. Kinda a tomatoishy Italian wedding soup or Albondigos.

My Aunt Dee called it Garbage Soup it was served on Saturday night. We avoided that night for dinner at her place.

I am calling a rapid order pick up into Panera Bread. Just walk in and it's sitting inside a book self.

Don't have to talk to anyone.

Pick 2 and an Oriental Salad. Loving it!!

Pork green chile stew, served with rice, bit of sour cream, and a little cheese...

Tossed salad, fries, steak and bread!! One of my favorites!!

Panera Bread it is my FAVORITE !!!!

I love, love, love, their Tuna Salad Sandwiches, along with their broccoli cheddar soup, with Blueberry Pomegranate Smoothie !

TAKE ME ! TAKE ME ! TAKE ME !

My pick 2 is the tuna on honey rustic white with broccoli cheddar soup.

Always!!

Tonight was very basic, just pinto beans, cooked from dried with county ham and hot buttered cornbread. Simple and delicious.

Ha....great minds.......pot of pinto's & smoked shank with some hot biscuits...

Grilled Steak salad at the Dakota restaurant after my archery league tonight.
It was huge and the steak was a large portion grilled medium rare
For $12 it was a steal

I had made a pot of sauce from ground elk and elk Italian sausage last Sunday. This afternoon my wife and I made ricotta. This evening I assembled it all with grated soft Asiago and mozzarella (which we thought about making). She tossed a salad of greens from the garden, tomatoes, bellpepper, cucumber, Feta, olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper. It was killer.

Pan seared ribeye and creamed spinach. Did a light béchamel, cream cheese sauce, lots of cracked pepper and kosher salt.

Pretty simple and only two pans and a cutting board to clean!

PS Dan, steak was on special, spinach and cream cheese were part of birthday dinner gift, dinner cost about $6.00!

Big bargain!

Did the same over the weekend, but used deer burger, + sliced sweet chillis & added a can of this, plus carrots, celery & a cup of pot barley.

[Linked Image]

Sautéed 2 large diced onions, browned deer burger in the left over bacon fat from breakfast & then added vege & sweated down a little, before adding "said can" & 3 quarts of good stock.

Very hearty.

Now that sounds delicious, and something I am going to cook as soon as I get home. I really like the idea of the Rotel

Yeah, it was great ML.

Just a slight (mild) kick as a change up.

Love the barley too.

Damn y'all sure do eat some fine stuff!
As usual, last night was Wednesday night Red Baron night.
And as a big plus[beyond adding bacon] we had a few shrooms left in fridge and really kicked it up a notch.

Red Baron pizza, add pulled pork that has not been sauced, provolone or muenster cheese, or both, and finely, finely, chopped Vidalia onions, better than, well, you know, crunchy peanut butter !!!!

Nice! I've got a friend that kills it with yellow fin tuna on the grill. Quick marinade, sprinkle of sesame seeds, and fast sears both sides. Quickly becomes the center of attention at group get togethers.

Listen hear woman, hain't nuthin better'n crunchy PB,heck Reeses even came out with a crunchy version.

As a side: may have to try some pulled pork next time I cook some. And I often add some cheese or onions or both, contemplated onions last night but didn't want to over do it since I was already adding baby portabellas. Don't want to get too highfalutin!
Actually, it's amazing how our dinners have changed being empty nesters.

Peanut butter is supposed to be creamy, peanuts are supposed to be crunchy. There isn't supposed to be something in between.

Chicken Caesar Pasta Salad

I used Rotini, Asiago cheese croutons, cracked pepper encrusted grilled chicken breast, Romaine lettuce, grated Parmesan, creamy caesar dressing (I used lots of garlic), and crumbled bacon strips. Delicious ! And enough left for lunch tomorrow !

2 bags of this, + a bag of uncooked shrimp & half a bag of sliced sweet chilies, + a bunch of coriander & a great garlic loaf !

I've bought those before. Not bad. There's another flavor I like but I can't remember which one it was.

Broiled salmon with roasted carrots. Quick & simple.

Paul, those soups look pretty good, will have to keep and eye out for them out here.

I took my wife out for fondue tonight. Cheese, bread, veggies and apples to start, beef sirloin and scallops to finish. Sort of a belated Valentine's dinner. It was very good. She was very happy.

Where did you go Ed The Melting Pot?

I need to treat the wife to fondu some time. We had it on our honeymoon in France many years ago.

Dinner tonight is chicken schnitzel and German potato salad. P-Salad is made, on to the chicken shortly.

Served with apple cranberry chutney it was a big hit.

I'm following it up with desert of a Blantons.

I spent the day making a pot of beef vegetable soup with barley instead of potatoes. A big bowl of that and some cornbread muffins filled my belly tonight.

Dale

P.S. I also did laundry and managed not to season the laundry or soap the soup!

Originally Posted by dvdegeorge

Yep. They made a decent martini which is rare when I go out.

I just stuck my nose in a zip lock bag containing marinating beef strips, sliced jalapenos and Serranos and onions. I will throw tomato in when I fry it on high heat. It's all soaking in lime juice, garlic, Bolner's Season-It-All and Fajita Seasoning. It going on day three of soak time. Tonight we will feast with La Costena refries, corn and flour tortillas and Sadie's hot salsa.

Got up to 59 degrees here today so perfect day for smoking some ribs

That sure looks good Dan.

Twice baked potatoes here fer supper.

Baked ham, oven roasted potatoes, buttered steamed carrots, homemade biscuits, and cherry pie for dessert.

That Lynn, sounds like what I'd call a Thrasher's meal.

wabigoon,

It was excellent, leftover ham will be used for a ham and scalloped potatoes casserole, and ham and bean soup.

Unfortunately there is no leftover cherry pie to be found

Maybe I should have placed the "lot's of it" emphasis on the cherry pie too

Lynn

I had Arby's[yes, it sucked].

Ed can you post a recipe?

Charles roast, mashed potatoes, frozen corn, fresh asparagus, tossed salad

I hesitate to sow my ignorance John, but what is a Charles roast?

Chuck roast...usually a pot roast. Pretty awesome as pulled beef on smoker.

Ah, one of John's little jokes.

Beef Noodle soup and hot biscuits....
I use chuck and those big fat country style noodles...

Now, that, looks like down home cookin!

Thanks.....it's one of the few things I do really well IMO.....
The same recipe works equally well with barley instead of noodles....I'm not sure which one I like better....

Edit....I also use nice rich beef stock and sop up the juice with buttered biscuits....mmmmmm.....

I'd be pleased to tuck a napkin in my collar, and put my boots under your table.

I'd be pleased as well to have the some of the other folks here to dine with me.

P.S., bring your own Pepto Bismo.

Last night I cooked up some Jeyuk-Bokkeum (Korean spicy pork stir-fry) and Haiku noodles, and it was good, really good, damn good !

Excuse the stove top, stir fry will do it every time, my daughter was not impressed

Looks great ML!

Yes, it sure does look great Miss Lynn !

Got me hankering for Mongolian Lamb, due the similarity.

Used to make it lots, back in Australia, where lamb was, both, prevalent & inexpensive.

Mongolian Lamb
Adapted from Lynsey Lou's Mongolian Beef

2 ts vegetable oil
1 tbs fresh minced ginger
3 cloves garlic, crushed
1/2 cup soy sauce
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
Vegetable oil, for frying (about 2 cups)
500g lamb steaks
1/4 cup corn flour
1 large red onion, thinly sliced
2 green shallots, sliced finely

To make the sauce, heat the oil in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the ginger and garlic to the pan, give it a quick stir then quickly add the soy sauce and water before the garlic scorches. Add the brown sugar, stir to dissolve, and then bring the sauce to the boil until it thickens and reduces, approx 5 minutes. Remove sauce from the heat and set aside.

To prepare the lamb, slice it thinly on the diagonal into ½ cm thick pieces. Tilting the blade of your knife to about 45 degrees will give wider cuts. Dust the pieces in corn flour then leave to rest for a few minutes so it sticks to the meat.

Heat 2 cups of oil in a wok or large deep fry pan until it's hot but not smoking (a wooden spoon dipped in the oil should start to bubble straight away).Carefully add the lamb in 2 or 3 batches to the hot oil and fry for two minutes, or until it just begins to darken on the edges. It doesn’t need to be cooked through at this stage. Stir the meat around a little so that it cooks evenly then remove with a large slotted spoon and drain on paper towel. Repeat with remaining batches of lamb. Tip the hot oil into a heatproof jug then return the pan to the stove over medium heat.

Add the red onion and shallots (reserving a small handful of the shallots for garnish) and sauté for a few minutes until it becomes soft and translucent. Add the beef and the sauce and cook, stirring for another few minutes until it is well combined and the sauce has thickened.

Remove the lamb and onions (leaving excess sauce behind as it is very rich) and serve with plenty of steamed rice and a sprinkle of shallots over the top. Serves 4-6.

Sunofab!tch !

I even commented !!

Tonight, the Lord willing, supper will be French Canadian Pea soup, and assorted fingers sandwiches, ham salad and egg salad. For some odd reason my kids love finger sandwiches, even as adults, and think it is to quote "Kick Ass Cool" when they are served. It works for me because leftovers are a great convenience

You lost me at pea

For me, ham (bone) & split pea soup is as homely & comforting as it gets.

Originally Posted by New_2_99s

Absolutely

Very simple, a ham bone with a good amount of meat still clinging to it, two whole carrots, one whole onion, I used two large bay leaves, a tweak of thyme, a tweak of celery seed, some black pepper, covered it with water. Simmered for two hours, now the kitchen smells like heaven. Time to put the peas in, and wait patiently, will add salt later depending on how much salt the ham gave up. So delicious, and comforting as you say, and comfort is a rare thing in this world.

Happy Eating !

Looking for the salivating smiley thingy !

Either would work, I guess.

Green peas, yellow peas, dry, split?

I buy the odd can of Habitant, and enjoy it.

When I make the soup, I use a bit less salt, and lard!

You probably wouldn't want Sean and I hanging around the serving table, given those victuals.

Tonight, grilled ham, and cheese, on the wife's homemade white bread made with cracked rye, and pineapple on the side.

Elk burgers infused with garlic and mozzarella.....

Homemade guacamole infused with red onion, cilantro, and diced tomatoes with homemade corn chips. We have this guacamole about 2-3 times a week...

egg beaters, a freshly butchered hog sausage, whole wheat toast, pumpkin butter, a 4 girl scout cookies.

Pork and prawn balls in aromatic broth (adapted from Gordon Ramsay’s Ultimate Cookery Course)

Ingredients

For the balls
◦100g raw prawns, peeled, deveined and finely chopped until almost minced
◦250g minced pork
◦1½ tbsp finely chopped chives
◦1.5cm piece of fresh root ginger, peeled and diced
◦Enough sunflower sun for pan frying the balls
◦2 big handfuls of spinach
◦Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
◦1 spring onion, trimmed and finely sliced, to garnish

For the aromatic broth
◦1L stock, home-made or from stock cubes
◦1 lemon grass stalk
◦2 whole star anise
◦2 teaspoon oyster sauce
◦2 teaspoon soy sauce
◦2cm piece of fresh root ginger, peeled and cut into matchsticks

Instructions

Place the minced shrimps in a bowl with the pork, chives and ginger. Season with a good pinch of salt and pepper and mix until the ingredients are well combined and sticking together. Roll the mixture into small balls about the size of a golf ball. Transfer to a plate, cover and chill until needed.

Meanwhile, get started on the broth. Heat the stock in a saucepan, add the other ingredients and mix well. Bring to the boil, lower the heat and gently simmer for 10 minutes to infuse, then taste and adjust the seasoning as necessary.

Heat a heavy-based frying pan over a medium heat and add a dash of oil. Fry the pork and prawn balls, turning frequently, for 6–7 minutes until golden brown all over. Transfer into the gently simmering pan of broth and leave to cook for 5 minutes until the balls are cooked through. Add the spinach and cook for 1 minute until just wilted.

Taste the dish and adjust the seasoning if necessary. Serve garnished with spring onions

I had a crusty roll with grilled chicken breast, cucumber slices, and lettuce, with sweet chili sauce, and grape juice. Just in that kind of mood.

A hoser classic...used to get it all the time during temp exile. Unique, but a far cry from homemade.

Tonight, Salisbury steak, pomme de terre le DeWalt, roasted asparagus with mozzarella, and gravy, of course.

Given it was 86 here today it was grilled burgers, twice baked potatoes and a simple, yet proper salad. It was good, as always.

For some reason I had a Hawaiian hankering so tonight was huli huli chicken, Hawaiian pasta salad and steamed rice.

Watching the sun go down on the waters of Turnagain arm with the Mount Spur in the distance while tending the grill didn't suck too much.

Nice pic, 458. Looks purdy darn pleasant!

My wife is off seeing her Mom for the weekend. SWMBO is not a fan of Tex Mex but I grew up on it made by my Texan Mom so when she's away it's a Tex Mex fest in the Pugs household. Tonight is Moose Enchiladas.

I do add a single tube of spicy italian sausage to the moose as the game is so darn lean I need to add some fat. Lots of caramelized onions too.

A good Pale Ale in hand and I'm in heaven.

Mostly I'll likely spend more time putting t&g ash lumber on the walls, and ceiling.

A buddy has been going up north with his sled Maniwaki and Val d'Or

Richard,

Are you up at the 'Goon yet ?

If not, you may not be sledding, by the time you get here !

Tonight, teriyaki chicken thighs, steamed rice, steamed asparagus and sweet snap peas.

Tonight will be panfried pork quick/cube steaks, mashed potatoes w/gravy and green salad.

Pulled pork, crusty multigrain baguettes & coleslaw(sans dressing - for the crunch factor, as well as cutting the sweet fattiness).

Glass of Chardonnay, with dinner, then a Crown Northern Harvest Rye (+ a couple of splashes of water) while watching a movie with my "honey".

Life is good !

Medium amber colour; aromas of baking spice, vanilla, cooked apple/pear and rye bread, with notes of pepper, caramel and apricot; delicately sweet, creamy and rounded, flavours of sweet spice, pepper, vanilla, butterscotch, toasted nut and caramel with notes of oak, marmalade, anise and toffee on a warm, elegant finish.

potato salad
homemade sourdough bread.

The plan was some grilled Specked Belly goose breast sliced thin and served on a crostini with a little tart cherry glaze and on some others with an orange fig glaze.

Reality was me picking up and dropping the countertop ceramic olive oil container onto the granite countertop, and my full beer glass which shattered, covered the kitchen floor, duck breasts and countertop in 6 cups of oil, one Ballist Point Stout and 2 kinds of broken glass.

I've ordered a pizza.

Bummer Pugs! Chit happens, that's why Dominos delivers!

I sautéed up a couple handfuls of spinach with garlic, S&P, and mixed it with some cream cheese, Parmesan, and shredded Montery Jack.

Stuffed a couple big and juicy breasts with the mix and rolled 'em in bread crumbs before browning in a skillet and finishing in the oven.

''Twas great!

Family dinner at the club. Eight hams with pineapple, brown sugar, and cloves. Eighty pounds of meat loaf. Chicken and dumplings, from four chickens. Mashed red potatoes(50#s) and gravy. 120 drop biscuits. A sweet corn red pepper veggie. Peach/apricot cobbler with ice cream. Been there since 8:15, got home at 10:45.

I'm beat.

Cocktail and campfire, then off to bed.

I made cheeseburgers and brats on the charcoal grill. First time this year. Simple and delicious.

2 cups White Sharp Cheddar
1 cup Longhorn or Mild Cheddar
1.5 cups Mozzarella
1 cup Provolone (smoked has more flavor)
1 cup Parmesean
1 stick butter or margarine
1 cup Romano, Asiago, or salty cheese of preference
1 pint light cream or milk
1 pound box of elbow macaroni
1 tsp salt
4-6 eggs (for large 6, for jumbo 4)

Cooking Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Boil a large pot about 3/4 full of water. Add a
healthy pinch of salt to the water. Pour entire box of pasta in water and stir.
Boil pasta for about 7-9 minutes or until it's "al dente" or has a bite.

While your pasta cooks, in a large bowl, mix all of the cheeses together. With
your hands, blend the cheeses so the color looks even. From this mixture remove
about a cup of the cheese blend and set aside for later.

To the cheese mixture, add your eggs, salt, and light cream. Melt the stick of
butter in microwave and add to mixture. Stir this wet cheese mixture until it
has the consistency of a wet oatmeal. Usually takes about 2-4 minutes.

Drain pasta and pour half of the cooked pasta into the wet cheese blend. Stir in
contents thoroughly, then repeat with second half.

In a 9"x13" pan ( or one near that size), grease/butter the entire pan very
well. This prevents the mixture from sticking and creates great color. Pour the
entire mixture from the bowl into your greased pan and spread it evenly.

Finally, take that cup of the dry cheese blend and sprinkle that evenly across
the top of the mixture. Place the dish in the oven and bake on the top rack.

Bake for 35-40 minutes. Remove when bubbly and golden on top. Allow to cool for 5 minutes, serve and enjoy!

The spicy/tangy pulled pork I slaved over, and the awesome brown beans, are mere side dishes and not really of any major importance in the scheme of things apparently

I had wild morel mushrooms with a baked potatoe and Ramen noodle cabble salad. Those morels were delicious. They were the small grey variety and first find of the season. My son and I will explore more territory tomorrow hoping more yellows are out.

Shrimp and sausage gumbo tonight. Bistek marinating for tomorrow night.

Oh boy! Combine that and mikes mushrooms in the next post down and give me an address!

Well, back from our traditional week at the camp. We've been taking it off for 18 years and renting a cabin and 5 years ago bought our own camp in the panhandle of WV so you'll get a series of meals.

Seafood Paella with Cod, Shrimp and Scallops. We do this the first night when the seafood is fresh and it reheats easily the rest of the week. Just add a little chicken stock and warm covered in the oven.

Mooseburger's. Alas the buns we took got moldy quick so we had these soft bagels, which I hate as bagels but work fine as a bun in a pinch.

Good. The Viognier's vary a lot IMO and this one was nice.

Thanks, that's why I asked.

I truly like good ones, but have been disappointed often !

Bit like Pinots, bought a $35 bottle last week. Good vineyard, good review, opened it, nice "nose", but completely flat, acidic flavour profile.

Chicken thighs with risotto

Nice job Scott!

Thighs are the best part of a yard bird.

Homemade elk Salisbury steak with onions and mushrooms and garlic mashed potatoes. I gorged.

Looks great Dan.

I came home to find my daughter had made cheese stuffed and cracker crusted chicken thighs. She did a damn good job. No pics, I just chowed.

My gosh, that pork loin looks great Dan !

We had pork schnitzels last night.

Cut pork loin 3/4" thick & pound to "thinness".

Season meat, dredge in flour, egg wash & panko crumb.

Shallow fried in peanut oil until golden.

Hit with a splash of lemon juice & a touch more S&P.

Sides were hashbrown casserole leftovers, + baby peas & peaches & cream corn (both frozen).

Comfort food !

Used the rest of yesterdays pork loin to make an improvised pork teriyaki stir fry, with broccolini, green pepper, onion & some softened chow mein noodles.

Tasty.

Excellent chicken pot pie and a green salad with honey and avocado dressing, but the company was the best part of the meal.

Still is. Look at the people that can't be civil and stick them on ignore. People like mohick aren't fit for company at my fire virtual or real so why bother with more noise than signal?

Still a couple months away from my own tomatoes, or basil for that matter, but with temps on the upper 70's today we're enjoying a simple meal of fresh mozzarella, tomatoes, basil mixed in a little EEVO and good Basalmic with some toasted baguette for dipping in the delicious sauce in the bowl. I premix so the cheese gets a soaking in the balsamic.

Nice looking plate, Pugs.

Yes good lookin' food there.

On the "other" topic, 'I'm a relative newcomer, but I've seen folks rip in like the Wicked Witch of the West making unpleasant comments.
It seems best to pay scant heed, and just wait for them to go away.
If the truth be known, pity may be what is called for.

Miss Lynn will be along to straighten things out, I can't recall hearing from Denny for a coon's age and he is a good guy.

No pics but I had a pan seared rib eye. ( much more satisfying than sleep ) Deglazed the pan with a little fresh squeezed lemon. Spring mix salad with cherry tomatoes and an olive oil, garlic, lemon dressing.

As to the a holes agenda, leave it in the freak show. We've got a pretty good crowd of like minded eaters down here.

Looking good Dan!
I dig your bandana.

That looks delicious !

First thought was that you'd smoked the mozza kurds !

Which, would also be great, I think.

Well I didn't take any pictures but my new favorite burgers were grilled last night.

It was an invention born of necessity maybe 8 months or so ago. I was going to make some burgers for myself and my boys, I had a lb of lean ground beef and it just didn't look like enough meat for the boys and I. So, I opened the fridge and found that I had some uncooked johnsonville brats. I grabbed 2 of the brats, sliced the casings open, peeled off the casings and mixed the brat meat in with my ground beef. It was just enough "filler" to help me make the number of patties I wanted to make.

As an added bonus they were awesome burgers.

So, it's now become normal practice here to slice open a couple uncooked brats and mix the meat with my ground beef prior to making patties for burgers.

OK Dan, now you're just makin' me think how much I miss the smell of the sea !

Hard to find here in the middle of Canada !

Not much comperes to the first run of a wahoo, or the shear, back breaking power of a yellowfin, locked in a circle under the boat.

Dan, that looks awesome! I'll bet it was tasty eating the same day!

Can't beat hours old fresh!

DFTFT.

How about dinner preview?

Just put a rub on 8 glorious lbs of prime brisket of a mix of Ancho chili powder salt,allspice, ground celery seeds, coriander seeds, garlic powder, ground mustard seeds, dried oregano, smoked Spanish paprika and black pepper.

Bound for the egg tomorrow.

Tamales with fresh made Red Chili Sauce.

Tamales were from Costco, not real ones.

Not bad though.

The allspice would have to go. Not a big fan but that's just me.

Last night, speed goat seared in butter with a salad and gin with cranberry to wash it down.
Tonight, ribeyes.

Sour cream does not scare me, great looking tacos.

Wish I could say I harvested it, but no. Our club had the annual wild game feed a couple of weeks ago and there was a lot of meat that just didn't fit the menu or number of people that attended. When the night was over we had made eighteen or nineteen different dishes and had to tell people we had two ice chest with thawed meat, take what you want.

I chose some cryovaced goat steaks! There was only two packages with three steaks each.

If you like SC try whisking a dollop in some scrambled eggs....

Shrimp tacos are one of my favorite all time comfort foods!

Throw in the skirt steak and it's a win win!

I make a cilantro-lime-cream sauce that would look real good on top of those with some of my also made from scratch pepper sauce.

Here Dino! C'mere Boy..

Keep on cooking, because I truly enjoy your contributions too

As for Homodick, Miss Lynn does not give a flying fugg what he has to say about her, he would have to hold some importance in this thing called life, and he doesn't, and he never will.

Chili with beans, crackers, nothing fancy.

Fried up some left over tri tip and made tacos.

Not very exciting.

Wifey doing some mystery dinner tonight.

But was smart enough to brine the chicken legs all day when she told me to take them out of the freezer this am...

Had chicken fajitas last night. Lots of sautéed onions & sweet peppers.

added a couple of slices of ripe tomato & some "mezican" cheese.

For something so simple, the flavours were great.

Tonight: homemade brats poached in chicken broth with red potato salad and a few bottles of Shiner bock.

Tomorrow: Steak de poulet frit under a creamy white pepper gravy and maybe a few sips of corn likker that has been aging in a 5 liter charred oak barrel for the last 3 years.Very smooth but still a bit young.

A friend owns a micro distillery and we have been playing around with a "rapid aging" process that has been very well received by his customers.

Tonight I had Red Baron Frozen Pizza.

And Beer.

Grilled Ribeye,sautéed onions and mushrooms in a butter sherry reduction and Au gratin cauliflower

[Linked Image]

I made pork souvlaki skewers and a rice pilaf.

''Twas delicious.

Though I need to get an herb garden going again. Dried herbs just don't cut it Ike fresh herbs do.

Rosemary chicken with polenta and a green salad.
A little heavy on he salt in the polenta, but it didn't stop me!

Night before last. Fish, shrimp, scallops and broccoli casserole. My P-R-P cheese crust with a layer of fresh cilantro underneath. Delicious. Made a big enough batch to spread some joy.

Last Night;

First there was this, while the cooking was happening.

Vodka tonic, with meyer lemon peel.

To be followed by this.

This is the left overs from 2 Roasted Chickens (meyer lemon & fresh poultry seasoning herbs inserted into cavity) & a mess of roasted root veges.

Succulent & tasty !

Monday night was prosciutto pizza with difference.

Did not have fig preserve, buffalo mozza & the arugula had taken a turn for the worse.

So instead of the above, base was spread with mango habanero spread & dotted liberally with feta. This was cooked off in a 500* oven for 15 minutes untl crust was well set & the feta had started to colour up.

Pull from oven & drape with prosciutto & grate fresh parm on top.

Experiment worked well !

Last night was soft deer burger tacos, grated cheddar, fresh ripe tomatoes & torn lettuce.

Been a good week to date !

Tonight is lemon pepper haddock, rice pilaf, and grilled veggies.

Or a VW specialty, drunkin pig.

I'm pretty new to making fajitas as all the slicing with one hand is a PIA so I break out the electric knife. It's a game changer, Also been using store bought seasoning mixes.

Can to share your seasoning blend ?

No need for a photo shoot to be a great post.

One each Red onion, red and orange bell pepper, pasilla pepper. Garlic, chile powder,cumin, salt and pepper. Sometimes a saranno and jalapeño, sometimes some cayenne. No hard and fast rules, Denny.

Thank you. You seem to be in tune with that style of cooking whereas I've only eaten it the few times I've been out west. Thus you folks and the internet are my only source.

Thanks again for sharing.

Gotta go tend my WSM.Yard work is in progress and it's a beautiful day back here in the hills.

Carnitas. After searing, put it in the pressure cooker for 60 minutes. Then fried after in the leftover "juice"

Halibut dragged up this AM and fried this PM.

Pretty tasty.

Yellow corn meal mush/grits with chopped bacon ends, parmason, and three eggs. ( fried, easy over)

Southern/Italian/breakfast? Brunch?

Who the fugg cares!

Gin and cranberry to wash it down.

Flour dusted pork loin chops and a green salad. Last night I went vegetarian with two artichokes. Busy weekend with a car show and a barbecue for the bench rest competition. Got to drive an LT1 powered '40 Ford coupe to and from.

Deep pit sammie, grilled asparagus/squash, and strawberry shortcake for the shooters.

Enjoying a cigar and cocktail with a freshly mowed yard in front of me. Hope all had a great weekend and a good Monday to come.

Tonight will be coriander/ginger/maple syrup canard sausages, and Merguez, North African lamb sausages, lovingly made by a dear friend of mine, Eric, who is both an amazing butcher and Chef. Serving them with grilled freshly picked asparagus and oven roasted grape tomatoes. A crusty loaf for soaking up the roasted tomato juices will be the perfect addition.

Bon Appetit !

* I have some wonderful Rillettes de Canard I wish I could share with Sam !

Tonight is ham and beans.

Tonight is a Swai fillet and green salad. Contest at work, ten dollar buy and weigh in, most weight loss by percentage over the next three weeks. Looks like a $200 pot and I'm down six pounds from Monday's weigh in. Wish me luck!

Last night.. same as tonight. Stuffed zucchini and yellow squash. Stuffed peppers made as gift to a good friend and his missus.

Homemade Swedish meatballs

Dude, those'll work...!

Cold beer, Pico de Gallo,guacamole and homemade bean dip tonight while plant some new citrus trees...

Brisket,chicken qtrs, a chub of bologna, and baked beans off the smoker with Ramen noodle salad on the side at my sons house. Umm good!

Seared tuna filet, salad, classic rock, cigar, and gin.

I love Halibut....never had it fresh off the boat though....I'll bet that was good...

Corned pork and cabbage. At $.99 a pound, figured I would give it a try. Wish I had bought more. 2 3/4 # of what looks to be sirloin roast. Good flavor and less salty than most beef packages.

Oak grilled Costco 1/4+ pounder dogs, Costo bastard sized buns steamed, dear wife's potato salad and grilled bacon wrapped, cheese stuffed jalapenos to start. Simple, effective. Washing down a Gibson and heading for bed.

Looks great Paul.

Tonight the daughter and I had a porterhouse and summer squash with cheese sauce.

Paul, what is it?? Looks like some sort of pasta dish.

Looks good!

http://www.catonsvillegourmet.com/menu/

I had the shrimp and grits.

We are off to the Wolf in about 10 min.. Steak and salad...

Fish and chips and plenty of malt vinegar, though I now know that malt vinegar breath is as enticing as garlic breath to some

I'll take malt vinegar breath over garlic breath any day

Originally Posted by local_dirt

Pasta is/was fresh lasagne sheets, adorned with well seasoned sautéed shiitake & brown cremini mushrooms, leaks, garlic. Fresh tarragon & heavy cream added at end & simmered (including the al dente pasta sheets) & reduced.

Good grate of fresh parmesan & serve.

Super tasty meal.

Me too !

After a good tooth brushing, a spray of Oscar, a couple of Altoids, and some give and take, we seemed to come to a meeting of the ways, my ways. I have very persuasive ways

These guys !!

As fish tacos & coleslaw !

Can't beat fresh walleye !

Never had walleye, but I hear they're great!

Yep, nice firm, white flesh on those walters !

Very mild flavoured too.

My daughter Quinn made Tomato Florentine Soup for supper, along with assorted sandwiches, she invited us over to share. The soup was amazing, and such a simple recipe. She done good !

I baked a yelloweye fillet coated with black pepper, garlic powder, honey, some butter, and some Beebomb from Pex Peppers. I also basted it a few times while it was baking. Turned out pretty well.

I made my first batch ever of Red Beans and Rice......
Came out great...all the recipe's I found said to use Kidney Beans but I used small red beans...
I'll make it again and I can't see anything I'd change cept maybe adding some shrimp along with the sausage...

Sticking to my no carbs diet. Home grown Cherry tomatoes sautéed in butter till they popped. Salt and pepper, onion powder. Toss onto a plate.

Another pat of butter, two eggs over easy. Toss onto tomatoes and enjoy!

Damn I wanted tortillas with it!

I made a salad of cherry tomatoes, bell pepper, cucumber and red onion. I poured a load of red vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper. Let it all sit in the fridge for an hour, threw on a can of chilled albacore and mopped with a chunk of sourdough.

Yea....I figured if it really mattered them Cajuns would have named it Kidney Beans and Rice.....
Good stuff either way though....much better than the Zatarans I used to buy...
I'm definitely adding shrimp next time.....providing I can remember to buy some....

FG, Oh yeah. Adding shrimp to just about anything is the shizzle. Here's a pic of some Spicy Shrimp and Spanish Yellow Rice I made earlier this week.

May follow your lead with the red beans and rice with shrimp next week. Got a steady source for 16/20 shrimp now at $6.99/lb.

Man O Man.....I can smell that from here and it smells GREAT!!!!!
I'm not sure what it costs but the only shrimp we can get here is the frozen stuff. Being the low life infidel that I am I get by though. I'll still make my red beans with sausage but like ya say..."adding shrimp can only make it better"....

Found the end of a brisket I cooked several weeks ago in the freezer. So into the cast iron stove top Dutch oven with some onions, garlic, zucchini, cherry tomatoes, green beans, and some nice Malbec poured in for good measure!!!

I think that's everything. Simmer!!!!

Oh!! And a couple of them little potatoes!

Its gonna be fwied bunny wabbit with gravy and mashed potatoes at Casa de Ingwe tonite!

ingwe, sometime I will have to get your recipe for fried rabbit.. I have eaten excellent rabbit cooked by others, but when we tried it we put the bunnies in a crock pot over night to tenderize them.. When we took the lid off, the fat stuck to the sides of the pot, and it smelled like rabbits when you dress them.. Haven't tried cooking bunnies since that day more than 20 years ago..

Kay, that looks wonderful.. But I think I would have poured most of the malbec into the cook!!!

We are grilling pork chops, baked potatoes, pork and beans, and fruit for dessert.. Some kind of wine to accompany the goodies...

Murderer...

Did a little fish smoking today. Rainbow trout, Sockeye, and Bluefish. Made a brine of soy sauce, water, brown sugar, salt, powered ginger and garlic powder. I brined it for 10 hours, rinsed and then let it dry for 6 to form the pellicle. Smoked it at 200 degrees over apple for four hours.

When it went on.

As presented for dinner. L to R - salmon, bluefish, trout with a little cheddar and gouda and crackers to have it on.

You guys have been killin it this last week!

Been experimenting with ribeyes in the cast iron skillet last couple nights. Boiled taters and corn on the cob on the side both times. I wasn't bored.

Flat iron steak roast, cauliflower with cheese sautéed in the cast iron skillet the roast was cooked in.

No carbs, but plenty of fat.

Contest at work extended till the first of August. In second place, got to keep it up.

Chicken and Sausage Gumbo

I even had time to soak a pot of vegetable stock on the stove all day.....much better than store bought....

Nice. I really enjoy making stocks.

DVD- I'm not sure what that is, but I want to lick it.

99's- Those little loin chops are some of my favorite pieces of meat ever.

Yea....good stock can even make my cooking tolerable.....

Scallops and spaghetti squash.

Scallops were fresh/wild, patted dry and dusted with corn starch, cayenne, s-n-p. Sautéed in olive oil/butter. Very slight slash of lime to finish.
Squash with mushrooms, bacon, and an herbed cheese sauce.

Elk spagetti

Simple.

Moose Tenderloin (under all the mushrooms and onions)

Yeah, all too rare a treat these days.

Grew up eating Lamb as a staple, in Australia.

It was as cheap there, as pork is here !

Damn fine !!

How was the early season corn ? Looks a little anemic, but could be the photo.

Last night was simple too.

Walleye fillets, dredged in seasoned flour, pan fried in olive oil, asparagus sautéed in butter & S&P & a lovely garden salad with grape tomatoes, red onion,feta cheese & red pepper dressing.

Again !

No complaining though !

A young man I've known since he was a toddler and his wife are stopping over for the night on their was from Oregon to a family reunion in MT so I have some country style rigs marinating and some Brats.....potato salad and ranch beans on the side.....there might even be a few Stouts or Porters consumed....ya just never know...

Nice !!

Nothing better than enjoying good company & good vittles.

Cheers !

Anyone heard from Miss Lynn lately ?

Apparently, it was good !

Have some Tanqueray in the freezer as well as some Wild Turkey Rare Breed 112 and a jug of Blantons sitting in front of me.

Point me in the right direction,please. Out of moonshine so it's either the good stuff or Bud Light.

A tall, fully packed, glass of ice. Fill 1/3 with gin, add cranberry or ruby red grapefruit juice, and a squeeze of lime.

Summertime chillin at its finest.

Just bought some Ruby Red yesterday so I'm good ta go. Was looking at fresh cranberries in the refrigerator section but didn't buy them. Suspect they would be great after a few pulses in the food processor.

Carry on.

It was a can of Vienna sausages while I wrote up my notes at the end of a range session, and now it's a late snack of a leftover hamburger patty.

Haute cuisine baby!

We can all admit to worse meals than that, that were supposed to be five star! ( at least I can! ).

Tonight was butter/lime sautéed asparagus, parmasan crusted home grown roasted tomatoes, and a rib steak with gin mushrooms.

Didn't suck!

Whaaaaaatt? Good stuff. Where's the saltines ?? Went to South Carolina years ago on a meat hunt.

Vienna & Penrose snauseges,sardines along with some saltines and a big jug of pickled pigs feet for dinner. Yeah baby !!!

Had them boyz down there gaggin'

I was real uptown, had Ritz instead of saltines.

Zucchini pancakes and sliced tomatoes tonight. Killer as usual. I almost opened my 1995 Beringer Private Reserve Cab for this meal but I am thinking it deserves a proper grilled tri-tip.

Chicken/rice/bean burrito and a bottle of MGD......glass of Stout and a pipe on the deck for desert....

Same thing tonight.....I made a big batch of burritos the other day.....they're delicious but after four days of em I'm ready for something different......watching the river go by with a glass of Stout/Burbon and a pipe never gets old though....

That looks great.

Going to have to try that, have a pile of walleye from the past couple weeks.

Thanks for the idea!

Yep, good problem to have.

That's why we've been trying different options. Walleye 5 nights a week !

Grilled venison backstrap with herbed butter, buttermilk/tarragon tater salad, fresh field peas.

Was going to try the reverse sear but chickened out. Turned out alright.

Yum, that looks fantastic Ella !

Nice, ella!

WT backstrap might be my favorite.

And makes a great Dagwood the next day, breakfast and lunch....

Perfect! Five to eight degrees more and still perfect! Can't stand over cooked venison.

boots, that's some fine looking cornbread.. I'll chip a half a c-note to see you shove no-prick's beak in it.

And so it begins....

Lyn, what happened to the Ms ?

Short ribs over rice with a wedge salad.

Shortribs got an all day soak in a bit of soy, dab of mustard, ginger, garlic, red pepper, seasame oil, lemon juice, a couple chopped plums, etc...

Browned and then cooked in the pressure pot with the marinade for 45 minutes.

Fired up the grill and put the ribs over coal. Brushed with reduced pot liquor for a bit of glaze,

Served over rice with the reduction and an iceberg wedge with blue and bacon.

Didn't suck..........even a little.

Oysters on the BBQ, baby back ribs, corn on the cob and ceased salad.

I didn't have all day to fugg around with the ribs. They got rubbed, wrapped, and par cooked in the oven. Sauced and a little char on the grill to finish.

Oysters came out of the water and landed on the grill. Ate 'em out of the shell with a bit of cocktail sauce as an appetizer.

I've done corn on the grill for years, but anymore prefer to schuck it and steam on the stove.

Sounds like a PBR meal, at best.

Tonight was stuffed zucchini and sliced tomatoes. Great as usual.

I'd like to hear about the stuffed zuke. Recipe?

Last night I had a piece of fish dusted with Zatarains Fish Fry and pan fried in butter along with a couple of tomato's fresh out of my garden....sliced and doused with Ital. dressing....

It was so good I'm having the exact same thing tonight.....

Seedless watermelon and chilled grapefruit.

Too hot and humid for anything else.

Last night was tuna stuffed pepper rolls ala Lidia Bastianich. Tastey!

A venison stew with Andollaide sausage.

Tonight, spaghetti squash alforno. Bacon, onion, garlic. Microwaved the squash, tossed with a little butter ( not margarine) and some fresh basil and parmasan .

Resisted the urge for a second plate!

Originally Posted by MadMooner

I made stuff Zuke tonight. My version anyway.

Sautéed half an onion in some OO. Threw in 1/2# of Hamburg and a 1/2# of mild Italian sausage.

Split some zuke length wise and hollowed out with a spoon.

Added zuke guts and a can of chopped tomatoes to the meat mix. Toss in some rice, maybe 3/4 cup, and a bit of water. Cook until rice is done. Add water if needed.

I steamed the zuke hulls in a pan for about 8-10 minutes. Spooned the mix into the zuke, topped with mozzarella and cheddar, onto a sheet pan and broil until nicely browned.

I just used a bit of Italian seasoning, S&P, red pepper flake, garlic in the meat mix.

Came out great.

Still like to hear your version!

Happy Birthday, Lynn!

I wish I was there for the calzones!

Fried squash and onions, limas and butter peas, baked potatoes and zucchini with seasonings, fresh tomatoes and onions and crispy cornbread and sweet tea.

Rub it in ya uppity fugger.....I'm having a grilled hamburger steak (can't afford buns), some store bought ranch beans, and a warm beer.....

To be honest...the burger has diced bacon and Anaheim's fresh from my garden and cooked on the hibachi and the beer's actually cold but I'm eating on the deck and it's 95 so it'll be warm soon enough....

BTW.....I'm wearing out that new Lodge Hibachi I bought last spring....I love that thing....

Hah!

That Lodge Hibachi looks pretty fuggin sweet! I definitely need to get one.

BTW- tonight was no better. Maybe worse?

Left over night.

I cut up meat off left over ribs, added left over zuke stuffing, a chopped up hot dog, and added it to a few scrambled eggs. Topped with cheese and doused in Crystal hot sauce.

Put enough Crystal on it and that's a gourmet meal right there.....

Shrimp and scallops in lemon and white wine sauce over linguine. Last night.

It didn't last long.

Oh Yeah!!!

That looks perfect!!

I had six neighbors over and cooked carnitas, Spanish rice and pinto beans. It was darn good with zero leftovers.

Had a late lunch of menudo. Dinner is figs and prosciutto. Both golden and purple from the farmers market. The golden's are especially sweet.

Cod dredged in almond flour and smoked on my pellet smoker at 350F. Finished it in a pan under the broiler to crisp the top and lemon butter in the pan.

Peanut oil seared skinned ocean fresh white king salmon, beets and beet greens, zucchini grilled, fresh cucumber and romaine salad, and boiled gold potatoes....
Delightful fresh summer harvest.

Just me tonight. Delmonicos done on charcoal, covered with garlic sautéed button mushrooms. Yukon Gold potatoes, finished on grill with season salt and olive oil. Beer.

Amazing food on here. I am delighted at the CF cooking mentality. Wonderful!

Last night. Chicken saltimbocca. It came out pretty good with no leftovers!

BobinNH,

I don't know that dish, so I did a search for recipes.

I found so many recipes that I can't decide what to try first!

Could you post your recipe, or direct me to it if it is online?

John

John: There are a million ways for saltimbocca....I am no expert. I learned from watching so can't direct you to a recipe. Also I am not a good cook and season stuff on the fly,and never write stuff down.

That said, here's what I did here:

-start with chicken cutlets which are thin filleted chicken breast. My butcher pounds them flat.

-Lay it flat and season with salt /pepper.

-Add a couple slices of prosciutto,laid flat on the chicken breast. I use Di Parma.

-Toss in a couple of Sage leaves. Add a slice of Fontina cheese. Roll the whole thing up and push through a couple of toothpicks to hold it together.

- Dredge in flour,all over.

- In a skillet, or braising pan, heat EVOO to medium heat with two cloves whole garlic, just for flavor. Place chicken breast in and cook to golden brown.

NOT TOO HOT! I use tongs to turn it and check it.

When golden brown, add white wine. I use a Chardonnay....Let simmer on medium/low heat. Add some chicken stock. Let it simmer.

At this point you can pop the whole pan in the oven for a few minutes and reduce the liquid. I just popped the lid on the braising pan and let it sit. The picture you see it was all done.

When done the chicken will look cooked and the cheese will be melted. Remove to serve and pour the liquid into a gravy bowl to put over chicken.

Serve. Enjoy.

Bob, for not knowing what you're doing, you just did a jam up job of explaining that dish.

Cheers!

My method is similar though it is always with thin veal slices. One of my favorite dishes. I a more than thankful for having grown up in an Italian house.

Many thanks!

I think that is simple enough for even me!

I will pick up the ingredients on my next shopping trip.

John

It isn't hard. Just hover over it to keep it from getting too hot. No smoking oil.

It occurred to me a few capers would go nice in the liquid.

EdM the veal is good! Never thought of using it!

Had both in Tuscany & they were fantastic.

Never thought of doing it at home !

Duh.

This also gots me to thinking about either or both (separate occasions) Chicken / Veal Marsala too !

99: No need to go to Tuscany...you can do it here!

Told my wife about this thread and that EdM mentioned the veal.

She said..."Dummy, veal is the original "saltimbocca". What's wrong with you? "

I had no idea. Even though I was raised with Italian grandparents off the boat, I never learned names for a lot of this stuff. To me it was just "veal" or "chicken".

She also said tossing in the capers would be a good idea.

It was.....washed it down with a PBR.....

Don't tell Mathman but I keep a few PBR's hiding behind the stouts and ales where the beer snobs can't see em....

PBR haven't had one in 30 years.. Must be ok if Field likes 'em..

I call it yard mowing beer.....good stuff....

Last night was simple. Chili (yes, with beans) and some CI corn doggies.

Big ribeye, smashed parsley red potatoes and corn on the cob last night.

Old standby and one of my all-time favorite meals.

Brisket tonight!

WOW!

Tonight it's medium rare tritip cooked over mesquite.

Broccoli and cheese sauce. Miller Lite's. All after an epic hike in 95 degree weather.

Life is good.

Perfect briskit.... Yum....

Great looking brisket, Dan.

Smoked chicken thighs tonight. Smoked baked beans, mashed potatoes and cole slaw kept them company.

We had ham, 3 bean salad, corn on the cob, and sweet potatoes.. Lancers for wind..

No PBR Field.. Lucky my yard died early so I don't have to mow.. Have a good one.. Grouse season is not far off..

I'm still mowing though.....and counting the days until the opener.... no fires so far so it looks like I'll be able to do my annual Grouse camp.....

Not terribly elegant but bought some smaller shrimp then got an idea of crab stuffed shrimp so ended up with more of a crab lump on a shrimp. Good though!

Here's ours from Saturday night.

Hot & Sour Soup with walleye & Shrimp.

Be careful with the scotch bonnet peppers !

Great in the dish, not so much in your eyes.

Originally Posted by New_2_99s

Wash hands Thoroughly before answering nature's call. Wifey poo said I looked like I was on a pogo stick along with panic in my eyes. Frantically washin' yer junk with sour cream and baking soda ain't nearly as kinky as it sounds.Trust me on this.

Tried not to laugh, while reading that.

It didn't work !

Sorry.

Funny thing was, I did wash my hands, numerous times, during prep, before eating & then hand washed the dishes. Was sitting back, sipping a spiced whisky, about 3 hours later & just happened to wipe my left eye, with my left hand, not knife hand !

Mild irritation resulted. I can only imagine the immediate result !

Looked online & people were suggesting nitrate gloves, or using a knife & fork to perform prep.

Pussies !

Scotch Bonnet peppers and testicles do NOT play well together

BTDT.

Those bonnet peppers are all the rage with islanders down here. Be advised. They do not play well with certain body parts!

Made the once only mistake of wiping my sweaty face with a dish towel I'd cleaned the knife I was cutting the peppers with.

Hello, dumbass!

Left over chili here this evening..always better left over it seems. Threw a few Serrano pepper slices in

Put a little scorch on a flank steak on the grill. Also green beans, zucchini, and potatoes; each coated w/ EVOO with salt, pepper, and garlic; then oven roasted.

Better stock up. Yer gonna need it. Hate ta see ya git caught with yer pants down in time of panic and nowhere to run.

Keep the next roll in the freezer.

Picking up a case of roasted NM Hatch Chilies tomorrow at Wegman's. Was going to roast myself but the roasters they use in the parking lot removes the seeds and provides a perfect hatch!!

Thinking it will be all things Hatch starting tomorrow. I believe these come from Melissa's Farm and Garden in NM.

Tis the season pards. Jump on 'em!!!

Picked up some last week. Right out of the roaster, out front of the local market.

Waited to long to peel them. Pain in the azz.

Tasted pretty good though.

Only better marketing is Copper River Salmon.

Tonight it was a hamburger cooked over charcoal and slathered with either Jack Miller's or Pig Stand brand BBQ sauce a few minutes before they were done. I love them this way.

The church people bringing them around to those of us gutting our flooded homes sure were nice.

Two number two's( soft noodle ), pot stickers, and salt pepper calamari from Kowloon's!

Told the girl to get extra chile paste!

Tonight is our last dinner home with our youngest as he heads off to A&M in the morning. It will be salmon, crab cakes, asparagus and rice pilaf.

A couple ears of sweet corn from the garden and a bone-in ribeye on the grill....

jack, you've been reading my menu.

One of my favorite meals. Throw in a salad or mashed potatoes and I'm golden.

Alan I went by yesterday and grabbed 20 lbs. Now I either have to throw most of what's already in the freezer (and a little dated) away to store or head to Home Depot tomorrow for a new chest freezer. But HD has a nice little freezer at $129 so thinking that's the plan.

Man that parking lot where they were smoking the Hatch Peppers smelled great!!!

Smoked poppers

searing up some dry-pack scallops in the cast iron and steaming some snow crab clusters......Birthday dinner

Scallops and crabs sounds great as a dinner, not so much as a diagnoses!

Had Blackbuck steaks marinated in bourbon/brown sugar , side of cauliflower smothered on cheese, dessert of homemade fresh banana bread....

I layered sliced onion, potato, ham, and some roasted hatch green chilies in a pie shell and filled it up with a half dozen fresh eggs and some heavy cream whipped together. Topped with a bit of shredded chedda.

What can I say...I like quiche.

Thai curry fish soup for me. Ling cod collars and red rock cod fillets. Was mighty tasty.

Grilled wings

Lentils and red beans, tomatoes, some Indian spices, finish with a bit of cream.

Over rice.

Gooood.

Italian Beef/Sausage Combos on Sunday.

I ate until I schit my pants. And then ate some more.

Dave

Was looking for something different and a quick trip too Wegman's proved to be worthwhile.

Couple of pan seared soft shell crab sandwiches. Now I have to figure out how to build the sandwich. Just crab or all the condiments!!? Hmmmm.......

[Linked Image]

Lettuce, tomato, and mayo is my reco.

Done just that! You a smart man!!!!

I did splurge and whipped up some homemade tarter sauce!! No chicken beaters. ::))

Damn, Flave and byc. Those are some awesome looking sammie packings!

I caught a good deal on some ribeyes last week and have been rewarding myself with them in one form or another since.

Probably oughta grill a hot dog or sumpin to bring me back to earth.

Thanks bubba!! Hope all is well with you!!

I'm really getting into the soft taco gig. You can darn near put anything into a soft tortilla!! Even a hot dog!! And less bread, which I can use right now.

That's what I wound up doing with the softies.

Putting fresh cilantro and spring onions in everything now. Especially multi cabbage slaw!!

David that is one of my favorites looks fabulous !

Soft shell sammies are great !!!! When I lived in Maryland many moons ago we used to drive over to the Chincoteague Hotel in Va. to chow down on their "Spider Sandwiches".

YUM !! Those were the days.

College GF was a marine science major, now teaching same at large eastern seaboard university.

When they'd go out netting for samples, blue crab soft shells were a sometimes trickle down bycatch.

We made quick work of those!

Made meatballs and sauce yesterday. then cooked some spag.

Sauce

24 meatballs

[Linked Image]

Browned and combined in the big skillet

[Linked Image]

Into the sauce

Later on that evening

It didn't suck.

Bubba that recipe needs to go right up top with ole Double D Dan's sauce recipe!!! ::))

Looks absolutely bliss!!

Sorry. No recipe per se. Typical eyetalian spices, all eyeballed. Very similar to the dvd-man's.

I'm sure his is mo betta!

The one constant for the spat meatballs is about 1/3 pork sausage added to the ground beef.

Lump blue crab stuffed jumbo SC shrimp. OMG!! I love blue crab!!

I'll post pics as soon as I can get off the sofa!

Schnitzel and Spaetzle.

My kids (and I) looked forward to crabbing blue claws When we'd go visit my folks.

There was a news story today about a mass die off of 'bunkers' or menhaden .... prime crab bait in NJ.

Quiche, part deaux. Chickens keep laying...I'm getting backed up. Lol.

Tonight was onion, bacon, and black kale I had quick fried in a bit of OO and garlic. Was really good.

The black kale is one of my favorite greens. Super tasty.

Beet leaves, sautéed in butter & S&P.

Made a believer outta me !

While we always used rank chicken necks around the docks menhaden is definitely the crab traps/pot bait of choice. We also use mullet in SC.

Did not know about the demise of menhaden. But it was hard to find this past summer. The casting nets were good to me. Especially, for mullet.

Tonight we had Leniwe Gołąbki with a black skillet of freash cornbread. Pretty darn good for a quick meal. For those of you that don't know your Polish (like me), thats lazy cabbage rolls.
Still have half a head of cabbage left so I may try Holishkes with sweet-sour sauce. A Ukrainian jewish recipe I believe.

Italian sausage, bell pepper, onion and potatoes in the oven.

I love cabbage rolls. Might have to make some with mom when she visits next month.

I heard your folks were going to visit, I also heard there was good news for the Mooner family. Congratulations.

Yes sir! Really looking forward to it.

Interesting cos down this way a PittsBurger seems to always have fried egg involved. Maybe the term "pitts" burger means what ever you want on it.

Been working out and careful about eating the last few weeks to get ready for Idaho but life has to have breaks. Late meetings (there's combined annual salaries worth north $1.8M in this room and it takes you an hour and a half on a friday afternoon to decide we need a strategy and to communicate it to the employees? Kill me now) and had to pick the chainsaw up from the shop so told SWMBO BBQ from http://mission-bbq.com/ is in order.

Brisket, ribs slaw and baked beans. Good stuff

That is a nice plate Al!!!

Very well done!!

I have a pot of Barts Chili percolating......I used some peppers and tomato's from my garden instead of the RoTel he calls for.....boy does it smell good....
Forgot to get Cornbread makins so I'll have to substitute rice but I'll live.....
I'll eat a bowl (or two:) and save the rest for my annual Grouse camp next week.....can't wait....

No egg David,this is the reason for the name and I've eat one at the original in Pittsburg

Primanti Brothers (Pittsburgh English: [pɚˈmæːni], Standard English: [pɹɪˈmænti] or [pɹɪˈmɑnti]) is a chain of sandwich shops in the eastern United States. Founded in 1933, the chain is known for its signature sandwiches of grilled meat, an Italian dressing-based coleslaw, tomato slices, and French fries between two pieces of Italian bread.[1]

burger looks good!

I love slaw on a sandwich.

I do too. In fact, I pretty much use slaw instead of lettuce now. And I do not use mayo in the slaw.

Gonna have to make one of those PittsBurgers!! Thanks Dan.

What manner of slaw dressin' do you prefer, B?

Originally Posted by byc

Gonna have to make one of those PittsBurgers!! Thanks Dan.

David, ditto. Are you using a vinegar based slaw dressing?

Vinegar and some sugar was pretty common in GA.

Yup...very common in SC as well.

I've also found some very creative salad dressings in stores like Whole foods that are great in different makeups of coleslaw. Tried one today that included a lemon, shallot, and cilantro, vinaigrette base. Added a little brown sugar and sweet onion. Good stuff!!

Off the shelf, the wine based strawberry vinaigrette from Briannas makes a great quick slaw.

My fav is my Mother's Texas hot pepper slaw, which is essentially sweet, sour and hot but no mayo. Great on BBQ sammiches!!

My base slaw is cabbage of course--both red and green, carrots, and I also add in lots of cilantro, spring onions (use kitchen shears) and a lime or 2. Jumped on the soft taco kick early summer and found this makeup was great on fish tacos. So now I use it on everything.

Cubed Pork!
Flank Steak!
Fresh grilled fish---especially mahi-mahi!
Baked chicken breast with a light Dukes mayo glaze!
Even grilled vege's!

All make great soft tacos with cole slaw and a giant tortilla.

Left overs are even better. Last week I baked 6 chicken breasts on Sunday and had tacos topped with a vinegar based cole slaw darn near every night. Talk about easy and filling! AND minimal bad stuff for you.

BTW Whole Foods also has a sun dried tomato based salad dressing that makes an amazing seafood cocktail sauce. Just substitute the WF dressing for ketchup. These are in the produce section and chilled. Well worth a try!

This is a wonderful thread. Thanks for starting Lynn!!

Happy cooking!!

David

Oh and for supper----2 giant grilled tequila shrimp soft tacos with an avocado slaw and they were absolutely great! And now I will indulge in a huge slab of watermelon with tons of salt. BUT no slaw!!

Not that far gone. YET! ::))

Guessing I eat at least 3 watermelons a week. Watermelon loves the human body!!

Just curious....Do we have the only dog who eats watermelon!!?? ::))

Never offered the hounds watermelon? Hell, they might eat it. Eat every damn thing else. Lol.

Tonight I did some simple Chx parm.

Butterflied a breast, pounded it out, egg wash, little panko and flour with some garlic salt, Italian seasoning, and pepper. Browned in a skillet with butter and OO. Little marinara on top and into the oven to finish. Top with parm and mozzarella.

Some organic noodles from Costco. Wife likes them. Taste like 90% of the other dried noodles to me.

Good Ol Ameritalian eats.

Pretty sure mine would if they saw me eating it....they love to see me headed to the garden so they can beg a few Cherry Tomato's...

Pizza, started the dough last night & let it rise slow in the refrigerator, sauce has fennel seed which is the secret flavor. Peach cobbler for dessert, the type with 2 sticks of butter & 3 cups of sugar.

My dogs love watermelon and tomatoes and squash and every other thing they can get in their mouths. You can tell how high my female can jump because the fruit level on the pear and apple tree starts there. Hell, they're boxers.

You ruined the oysters, everything else looks great!

Does look great. Guessing he's making his own.

Chimichuri isn't hard to make. Used to make a batch about once every couple weeks when I was heavily into a skirt steak binge.

Really makes a marinated, grilled skirt steak sing. Ribeyes don't suck with it, either.

I had yet another fried soft shell sammich with lots of HM tarter sauce!

Dang I'm gonna get fat!!! Comon' winter!

BTW Whole Foods has these French style burger and hot dog buns that are to die for. Figured I would never leave Marty's big buns but these are really light and great!! Will see if I can find a pic.

http://www.euroclassicimports.com/products/

That's the thing with the soft shells!

Get 'em while you can.. as much as you can!

Greg You are 100% correct. Yes sir!!

As well up this way they are local and right out of the Chesapeake. Just something about all things crab from the Bay that's extra special. Rock's/Striper's as well. Oysters have seen better days. Sad!

Probably all the run-off pollution and chemicals!!?

Regardless, I do love the Chesapeake!!!

Put together an Eastern Shore late Fall fast wing shoot just today!! Going for big dog wicked tuna in 2 weeks!!!

Found these flat breads at Wegmans- http://www.damascusbakery.com/brooklynbred/

After preheating the oven and pizza stone to 500 degrees adding a little diced salami, tomatoes a plattering of leftover green pepper and some fresh mozzarella and 7 minutes later you have a pretty easy weekday meal.

Much much better than boboli crusts.

Love shrimp tacos, David.

1-800-House of Mandarin tonight.

After a hard Labor Day of laboring it's tough to beat good ole delivered Chinese Food!!

My guy knows exactly what I want (we get the same thing for 20 years running now) and it's about as heat hot as one could expect. I just call him up and say, "hey Lee it's David." He replies, "I will be there in 15 minutes David."

Bliss!!!

Smoked some spare ribs yesterday and made what may be the best batch of cole slaw I've ever made. Mixed some mango nectar in when I sauced the ribs with Sweet Baby Ray's. I spritzed the ribs about every hour with apple juice and filled the water tray with Ting (a Caribbean lemon lime graprefruit flavored soft drink) and a little apple juice.

Made a barbecue pork sammich for lunch today with the sauce with mango nectar again. Whoever thought of the cole slaw on a sammich should be crown prince.

We had elk roast, carrots, potatoes, and onions.. Should have taken a photo.. But we were hungry!!

Looks good LD!
What's your slaw recipe?

MM, Pretty much your basic, except I was out of a couple things and that got my mind working. (No Coronas yet). Probably good that you're forcing me to remember.

I medium to large head of green cabbage shredded
I small to medium head of red cabbage shredded
2 slices off a large red onion chopped
1 large carrot finely chopped
1/3 stalk of celery finely chopped (didn't have celery seed; probably a good thing, looking back)
Used half and half, instead of milk and/or buttermilk. about 1/3 to 1/2 cup (All I had was skim and no buttermilk)
2 tbsp white vinegar
1/3 cup of sugar (thought it was too much, but I didn't have it mixed well enough yet)
1 - 1/2 cups Hellman's mayo (I'm sure Dukes would work, too)
2 tsp kosher salt
fresh ground pepper
juice of 1 lime
1 handful of fresh cilantro chopped

If I had to put my finger on what made it different and good, I'd say using less liquid and using half and half, lime instead of lemon, celery instead of celery seed, and the cilantro were the difference.

The flashlight is a new type of tactical utensil ?

looking good Greg. I need to bring you a bottle of the Mango hotsauce.

Yesterday we visited some old friends from our Midland days at their place on Lake LBJ. A starter of jalapeno/cheese sausage, ribeyes, potato salad, mixed green salad and pinto beans. The meat being grilled over mesquite. He nailed the steaks.

That makes me realize I didn't grill out nearly enough this year....

I've had some stuff come off the smoker at pretty weird hours sometimes but it's usually me and muttly so no big deal. Now I just figure in my serving time and work backwards from that point.

Small butt came off @ 0130hrs last night but after pulling and resting all night with a finishing sauce and reheating the PP sammies for breakfast

were mighty good.

Bet they were, Denny. Sounds great.

Brought home a bunch of buffalo steaks from the ranch several weeks ago. So I pulled out a big round steak tonight and chicken fried it a heart healthy cast iron fryer of pure hog lard! Damn was pretty tasty. I had leftover buttered potatoes and english peas with mine. Wife had ziti pasta with hers.

Stuffed cabbage rolls tonight!

Mom must be there, tell them "Hey!" from us.

Yep! I will!

We were just talking about the vegetables your mom puts up. Folks love it.

Beth and I did a canner full of cabbage stuffed Hungarian wax peppers two weeks ago, they are edible.

mom wants to give me a half bushel of peppers to do more, not sure we want to tackle a whole days worth. Would like them on the shelf though. Probably gonna.

A beautiful growing season has given my friends and neighbors a bountiful harvest from their gardens and I've had the good fortune to share with them through good ol' fashioned generosity.

Been living off the fruits of their labor for a bout two weeks now eating all sorts of veggie dishes as well as sammies.Eating a cucumber and onion as I type this. YUM!

Tonight's supper will be my homemade sweet italian sausages smothered in bell peppers and onions on toasted buns just like at the county fair.

Not as fancy as some of you guys by 24HCF standards but still darn good eats

Tonight alone on "La Frontera"

One of my favs. Fried potatoes and onions with a bunch of sliced sausage thrown in. I love this stuff. Usually fried in bacon grease. But non here at the cabin tonight. Hopefully the Hondurans will stay away. I have no dog with me!!

laffin! did you shoot the taters!!??

TFF!

Chicken soft tacos with cilantro slaw here!! No pistola's!!

Kaywoody, it's been awhile since I've seen Pearl beer.

Spud soup here tonight, and I checked my arms at the door.

A good shooter is good to have in this country. You never know what's gonna walk in your front door. Ask Blue!!

. Also got a Winchester by the nightstand loaded to the gunwales.

It can get wild!!!

Mom was visiting and made them. From what I saw-

Mix together:
1/2 ground pork, 1/2 ground beef
Diced onion
Uncooked rice

Par boil cabbage leaves

Take meat mix, Tbl sp or so, and place in leave, roll up.

Place all rolls in a pot or braiser with a bit of liquid, cover with about a half pound of bacon, lid, and simmer. Hour or so?

Get a skillet hot with some butter and fry the rolls in batches until brown. Chop up the bacon and make a quick butter pan sauce to put on top.

My aunt likes them with a tomato sauce instead of frying and butter sauce. I love them either way.

Hope we don't end up at Mikey D's.

Corned beef was pretty good, need to adjust the brine next time. Having fun playing with curing meats lately.

Was going to mention that corned beef is pretty hard to screw up. As for the brine that's the easy past. But for corned beef unless you're harvesting your own meat it's almost easier to buy pre-brined meats. And don't forget the horseradish!!

Also, I know some do not like crock pots but corned beef, cabbage, taters and carrots were made for a slow cooker.

Glad it turned out for ya!!

Thanks, we were cleaning the table and my wife ask "are you making hash for breakfast", that's why I did two roasts.

Originally Posted by byc

Truth^^^^^^^^

I agree, David. Corned beef, cabbage, carrots, onions in a big stock pot covered with water and slow boiled for hours is usually how I roll.

Because I always cook 2, too.

Time to clean out the freezer. I have several of the prepackaged CBs and this is a good excuse to dig one or two out and have an early St. Patty's day.

Nice! How did you corn the beef? Never tried it before. Sounds like fun.

I found a receipe on kitchn. We didn't have a couple spices, stuff we don't like anyway. So we skipped them. Really it's just simple brine cured beef. And the meat was just a couple of roasts that were on sale. Brisket is hard to get here, unless you buy a 40# box.

DELICIOUS !

Those sure look good!

The plan here is, Iowa pork chop, Yukon gold mashed spuds with gravy, and tomatoes fresh from the patch.

They sure do look good. Need to learn how to make those.

British hand pies. Love the name!!

As Johnny Cash would say "I've been everywhere man!"

Actually, we built a new house on our farm this past year and moved into it back in March. Then we tore down the old farmhouse. Been crazy busy but well worth it. Things really looking different around the home place.

Another stuffed artichoke.

Nice work Ed!!!

Some good looking eats on here. This was some hangover medicine the day after my wife made that prime rib. Washed down with an IPA.

Now that's the way they're supposed to look!

Jalapeno Corn Bread and some Barts Chili I pulled out of the freezer with a dollop of Sour Cream on top.....

Delicious.....

Was 2 Brats with several brews at the Oktoberfest just up the road.

Ribeye's with corn-on-the-cob.

Wind is blowing,so gonna broil the steaks instead of grillin' them.

However, no dice, & can not find using the search function.

Have to wait for Dan to chime in.

Been wanting to try one one of those cheese stuffed pizzas I've been seeing on commercials so tonight was the night.

On the big mean green machine of course!!

Dang was it good!! Went with the wood fired grilled cheese crust with some thinly slice tomatoes and pepperoni!! All from scratch so it was definitely worthwhile!!

Next up is that meatloaf Dan!!

[Linked Image]

Looks great, David. Did you use the Italian flour?

Thanks Greg. Yup 00 farina flour. Makes for a great crust. Crispy and light.

Had that pizza for 3 nights this past week and it was better with every night. Well maybe night 1 was the best!!

Thought so. Had that color. Bet it was damn tasty.

Heck its easy
I use ground veal,season as you would meatloaf,I used an egg,breadcrumbs,worcestershire sauce,A1 sauce,BBQ sauce,salt,black pepper,garlic powder and some sauteed onions and bell peppers.
Mix well stuff center with cheese of choice,I used sharp cheddar.
Throw a bacon weave around it and onto the BGE with some cherry and mesquite chunks.Temp was 350-375 degrees till done

I thought those were mashed potatoes and not cheese, which I got excited with trying.

On several occasions I've included cubed yukon gold potatoes in the meatloaf. Believe it or not they're a great addition.

Making one this weekend and will post-up.

Meatloaf, mashed/gravy and green beans. Maybe some yeast rolls. Nothing better!!

This weekend, my brother & I & our families, watched the Australian Rules Football (AFL) grand final on Saturday night. We ate home made meat pies with "mushy peas" & Holbrooks Black sauce (Worcestershire sauce). Perhaps a coupla coldies were consumed !

Good times, along way from our birth place !

I like to make it with peas, but of course that's a personal preference. The pie looks out standing. I am sure it went fast.

Wow Dan!

Nice job!

Last night was inspired by SSE's dinner can be simple thread.

Pork tenderloin (inner, not backstrap) @ room temp, rubbed with Busters BBQ seasoning & left to get to know each other for an hour or 2, while I preformed other duties.

Smoking hot CI frypan, oven on 350* fan forced.

Scorch on all sides to seal, total of about 2 minutes & then whole pan into oven for 10 minutes.

Remove & let rest, tented under foil while doing rest.

Add cornstarch to pan & make light roux & cook out flour taste, add beef broth & stir to incorporate & let thicken. At this stage, I added a generous splash of Bourbon & finally a good knob of butter. While all this goodness was coming together, I opened a can of country baked beans & warmed.

Sliced the tenderloin on the bias, added juices to the bourbon butter sauce & combined, then added sliced pork to pan.

Plate & ate.

Satisfied 2 !

Seared some pork tenderloin in a CI pan then finished it in chokecherry syrup with a nice salad.

Tonight it was a meatball poboy with provolone cheese. Local joint, none of that Subway crap.

MM, are you familiar with Yaka mein ?

284

No sir, please fill me in.

I looked it up. Turns out I have heard of it, just didn't remember the name. I haven't ventured into the NO hoods to sample it though.

It was featured on one of the cookiing shows awhile back and I've been hooked on it since. Good stuff. mmmmmmmmmmmm

Essential ingredient !!

http://store.slapyamama.com/collections/frontpage

Venison Stroganoff, Butternut Squash and nice Romaine (and veggies) salad with homemade Greek dressing

Deer stew, with lots of root veges.

Didn't have any Guinness, but had one of these in the fridge.

[Linked Image]

Style - Medium & Roasted ›

Rich deep brown colour; aromas of vanilla bean, mocha, caramel and dark toast; on the palate it is full bodied, dry and mildly carbonated, with flavours of coffee, vanilla, smoke and pumpernickel.

Thought we'd give it a try.

It worked out really well.

Brined chicken breast that will be topped with a thin layer of Dukes and Tony's. Baked over some thinly sliced red bliss (are they happy?) potatoes and mini carrots. Sweet green peas added in half way through the cook

A one pot baked creation that I have 4-5 times a month.

Venison steak au Poivre, sort of. Not heavily pepper crusted and no cognac. But pan seared and a peppercorn cream sauce.

Pan seared swordfish in olive oil and butter with chopped shallots, garlic and capers.

This turned out really well. A recipe from Boston's North End.

[Linked Image]

Saturday night was our opening of rifle deer season traditional meal.

Beef tenderloin steaks, cut 2 fingers thick, rubbed & chargrilled till just medium rare. Served with sautéed onions & cremini mushrooms & a garlic, cream & aged cheddar potato & sweet potato bake. Glass or 2 of good Cabernet & a Bookers to finish, around the fireplace.

Sunday night was a double recipe of potato & bacon soup, with fresh multigrain buns, a glass of Sonoma County Chardonnay or good Pinot Noir. Finished with couple of fingers of Crown Royal Northern Harvest Rye.

Good times with family & great friends !

No deer were harmed in the making of this memory.

Oh now, Stop! Excellent menus, 99, and double down on the Bookers! However, I would probably sub your second menu wine selection with a crispy Vernaccia di San Gimignano.

Just can't get that place out of my mind.

LD, know what you mean. We spent 2 weeks touring Tuscany in 2001, including the little walled village of SG. Have a beautiful print of the village, from below the wall hanging in our living room. Would go back in a heart beat !

Very cool!

I've got one of me looking over the vineyard fields somewhere around here.

ps- We stayed 1 week in an agriturismo in Scandicci, up in the hills outside Florence.

Great area to explore & create fantastic family memories.

Our trip was Deb's extended, immediate family. 12 of us for 3 & 1/2 weeks. Flew into Rome & did a couple of days of "touristing", rented vehicles & drove up into Tuscany. Stayed in an amazing villa in (?), which was a working vineyard. Had a live in cook cleaner, so we could concentrate on doing day trips in the region.

Daughter's most profound memory of the entire trip, was a whole beef carcass, hanging in the window of the butcher shop in SG !

From Tuscany, we drove to Riscone (?) on the Italian Austrian border, for a week, including Christmas & a week of skiing.

From there, we drove to Venice for 4 days, including New Years eve. AMAZING !

Drove back to Rome & flew back to OZ !

bye: It's very easy to make...

Made some different chili tonight.

Black beans, green chorizo a large one and HOT, venison burger, red ancho peppers, and brown anchos that I smoked, pork chops cut off the end of the loin and some beef broth.

The Brown anchos I am not at all certain are really anchos. They taste like an ancho, but they're 6-9 inches long and skinny like a Hungarian paprika pepper. They go from green to brown as they ripen never red. or yellow, No heat to speak of. They added an incredible smokey flavor to the chili and I just used three without the seeds.

The chorizo was mostly serrano pepper based and was manly on the heat side.

I have to do this again.

Gonna be Venison Sirloin (in Panko bread crumbs), sauteed kale and baked potato.

We eating poor tonight. Mashed tatters, wieners in Bbq sauce, and green peas.

Ham 'n' green beans tonite. Big 'ol bone in ham outa the smokehouse in a huge pot baked low and slow @ 275 till it fell apart. Remove and set aside covered. Add greens beans and new spuds to ham nectar @ 250 for 90 minutes. Put the whole mess together with hot buttered biscuits on the side. A little sprinkle of apple cider vinegar over the ham doesn't hurt a bit.

Mighty good eats.

16 bean and chicken soup/chili. Creole and sazonador seasonings with cheesy corn bread. Topped with Mexican crema.

you only had 16 beans for supper!?

Delicious Pasta Fazool !

Simple & amazing.

French onion soup, garlic mashed potatoes, steak and a glass of Bordeaux.

Soup tonight. I just turned my slow cooker down to warm. Smoked hocks, great northern beans, carrots, celery and chicken stock. My wife will have it with corn bread. No bread for me.

Meatloaf, mashed potatoes/gravy and green beans!!

Not a better combo on the planet.

Swedish meatballs and noodles...

I think Ali is fixing baked potato soup and garlic bread....

I'm gonna stuff my face...

Last night it was a simple preparation of chicken leg quarters.

Dusted all over with Cajun Corner Real Cajun Deal seasoning. Slow roasted in a Big Green Egg, glazed with Pig Stand BBQ sauce.

Small pork butt in the slow cooker now. Almost went with the BGE.

Instead going with roasted pig for football carne asada tacos!! Piled high with hot pepper slaw!!

Deer backstrap, cut 2 fingers thick, placed in ziplock bag & pounded to 1/2 inch, with any empty wine bottle I just happened to have at hand, simply seasoned with salt & course cracked pepper.

Into smoking hot cast iron skillet, for about a minute a side.

Remove & rest while finishing sides of sautéed onions & cremini mushrooms, mashed potato with parmesan cheese & tender green peas.

Simple & delicious.

Last night was a nice ribeye with salt & pepper pan-fried in a screeching hot CI skillet with Trader Joe's pad thai noodles with onion, bell pepper, and green peas added, along with a nice salad on the side.

Heavenly.

Left overs will be steak tacos.

Venison loin straps, butterflied. Garlic and lime, seared in bacon fat. Spaghetti squash with bacon cream sauce, and a glass of merlot.

CI pan seared filet mignon medium rare, spicy Spanish yellow rice with bell peppers, onions, and green peas and a big salad.

Just used the loin and squash in a scramble. Some shredded cheddar jack and fresh tomato slices from the farmers market.

Stuffed!

Broiled Chesapeake blue lump crab cakes, red potatoes and yep you guessed it.....MORE slaw!! Maybe a little cornbread!!

All this cabbage and slaw is decreasing my elevated blood pressure. I'm convinced of it.

Crab cakes sound GOOOOD.

Just about ready to pull the Chicken pot pie out of the oven. In the 20's tonight, seemed like a good food for that.

Keeping you pipes clean too.

Elk vegetable soup tonight. My wife's family tradition is to serve the beef same with a cutting board of sharp cheddar cheese, bread and butter pickles and saltines. I throw fresh Asiago on mine. It was more than good.

Once you get the hankering for Asiago, you're done.

Yep. Bought a big hunk at Costco.

That's where I usually get it, too.

So, Mrs Deb went "black Friday" grocery shopping !

Tomorrow night will be Whitetail tenderloins with mashed spuds & cremini mushroom & onion gravy !

Lemon turkey orzo soup. Not a big fan of soup but this was pretty damned good.

Pressure cooked some of 'deese:

And some of 'dis.

Loving it.

Looks good Deflave!!

I enjoyed the shrimp that were served 'all you can eat' at the Outback in CT. My wife had the lobster tails!

The steak that came with the shrimp was as tender as any I have ever seen!

but where's the "under glass?"

Marinated some Gadwall and Mallard breasts in Zesty Italian dressing for 24 hours before wrapping them in thick cut bacon and grilling them to a medium rare temp. Had some burgundy mushrooms and steamed broccoli. No photos as I was eating too fast...

Moose tongue tacos

Chili and cornbread...so good.

YUM !!! Good stuff. Double up on the seasonings for a great broth to be used at a later date. mmmmmmmmmmmmm

The plan was whitetail deer tenderloin. But Alas, the fruition will be mock city chicken and Brussels sprouts.

It's friggin' good so I can't complain.

I took mike7mm08 s good suggestion and made Goose jagerschnitzel. I filet'ed a speckled belly goose breast and pounded it flat. I think after the fact I should have split it in half and pounded it. Bacon mushroom and onion sauce and some pasta with butter and parsley on the side.

One goose could easily serve 4 and we have lots of leftovers. It was strange, I must have gotten one of the other hunters geese as there were a couple #2 steel pellets in this one. I only shoot them in the eye with a single pellet.

Pan seared chuck eye steaks and eggplant parmigiana. I cheated the eggplant, cheddar/jack mix, no mozzarella. Yeast rolls and football. Seattle sucks!

chicken parm you taste so good!!!! :)))

Breaded and browned these pork pieces in the pressure cooker too. Then threw the lid on and gave it to them for about 5 minutes.

Served with mayo, coleslaw and tomato.

Apart from that ugly, commercial burger bun, I'd eat the hell outta that !

Flave, that looks really good.

But, you really do suck on the ring necks. Haven't popped one of them in years.

We had a few bobwhite Quail for breakfast at deer camp this year. Its been a long dry spell but birds are abundant.

Simple bone in skin on chicken thighs. Hit with dipshit rub & onto rack on a cookie sheet in the oven @ 300* for an hour. Side of sautéed greens & sweet peppers.

Traditional broiled filet, baked potato - loaded - and a simple green saled!!

Baked potatoes with scallions, homemade chili, and sour cream on top.

Forelle Blau, German style poached trout. Delicious! Hadn't had it in awhile. Caught that nice trout last Monday, and it turned out perfect, poached.
Sweet and sour green beans and freezer rolls.

Pennsylvania Dutch Chicken Corn Soup.Added some extra eggs (chopped) to the mix as well as some garlic bread for soppin'. It's a standard soup recipe from where I used to live in Pa. and great on a snowy day like today

http://allrecipes.com/recipe/26365/best-pennsylvania-dutch-chicken-corn-soup

Deer chili and cornbread . Not that box crap either, cornbread from scratch in a cast iron skillet.

Simple & delicious !

Caribbean potato salad?

Yum!

Meatloaf with creole sauce, mashed spuds and sauteed spinach at a favored place, O'Brien's, just down the road from our rural home. My wife had chicken fried chicken, spuds and gravy with youngest son Tony having a rare NY strip and grilled veggies. We met with another family, good friends, and had a great time.

Grilled cheese and creamy tomato soup.

Neve gets old!!

I woke up early, hit the exercise room, had a cup of decaf, loaded the crock pot with smoked meaty boneless hock chunks, great northern beans, carrots, onion, chicken stock and packet of Goya Sabon A Jamon De Cociner. Headed to the garage to load some pig ammo for my 45 Colt M94, 21 grs of LilGun under the 260 gr Partition in Starline brass. Headed to the range with my youngest son and his "new to guns" girlfriend (2nd trip out with us). I dialed in the 94 that grouped very well and worked the SP-101 with new Hogue grip (what a difference from OEM), they worked my old Para P16/40, vintage Smith M41 I fitted with a modern short barrel, my DD AR topped with a PSA upper and his EAA 9mm and Mak. We had a great time and returned to this. It was a great day.

Looks good !!

Little OT but do you find the new Hogue grips you selected any larger? I find the SP-101 OEM grips too small and have been hoping to find something much more suitable to the grip. Just not had the time.

Thanks Ed--David

Yes, they are longer so the pinky rides the grip well and, better still, they fill the back side of the trigger guard so your knuckle is saved. A significant improvement.

Tonight it was chicken and andouille gumbo, with tasso added for lagniappe.

I ate too much.

Some lousy "pulled pork" meat that was supposed to be BBQ.

Middle Tennessee has forgotten what BBQ is, Pork, chicken or beef.

Why smoke it and some generate flavor when one can sell this substitute for the real thing . . .

TX my hat is off to you for still cooking the real thing!

Franks and sauerkraut paprikash and boiled potatoes....
It's not as fancy as it sounds but it's delicious and easy to make....

http://www.simplyrecipes.com/recipes/franks_and_sauerkraut_paprikash/

I use Hill's old fashioned franks and Mexican paprika for a little heat...

http://www.hillmeat.com/our-products/sausage/

Ed that looks good!

Short ribs anyone?

[Linked Image]

Spaghetti and homemade meatballs with garlic bread and side salad!!

Might even spring for a little red wine from the cellar!!

Cuts the bite of the cold and snow that we now rarely have.

Red beans, rice, diced maters, chicken. Little Franks hot sauce and Tony Cacheres Creole seasoning mixed in.

Got the blood flowing.

Shrimp and grits, ( ok, I only had polenta ) topped with a large duck egg.

My son and I arrived home from the Dallas Safari Club show early this evening to find a crock pot of pulled pork, cole slaw and pinto beans. Damn wife... Sipping a brandy in front of the fire now. Damn life..

Friday night was beer & a very good pizza at the local !

Saturday night was roast beef & roast potato & butternut squash.

Sunday night was roast chicken & vege.

Also made deer chilli, deer burger soup & chicken stock from the bird carcass.

Going to be a good week !

Man, I love short ribs !

Between them & shanks for my all time favourite comfort food.

Roast deer sirloin & roasted smashed taters & pan jus (gravy).

This was from between Christmas & New Year.

Deer burgers ='s goodness !

Wife's leftover Wood Roasted Lamb Sausage Mustard cream, roasted potatoes, root vegetable kraut from our dinner Saturday evening at Woodbury Kitchen.

http://www.woodberrykitchen.com

Amazing place. Special birthday dinner and priced like it but really good. If you're in Baltimore give it try (it's in a low gunfire zone

)

I had the crab fritters, the oyster stew and one of the specials braised rabbit legs over potatoes and cabbage. All the dishes were small enough that you didn't leave stuffed.

Also started with one of their specialty cocktails, the Pre-Prohibition Old FashionednWV 99-proof bourbon, MD honey, apple cordial, house bitters, Amy's orange bitters Very civilized.

I sliced a venison back strap into medallions. Cooked them in the oven at 400, resting on a pile of thin sliced onions. Seasoned with Kosher salt, fresh ground pepper, and French Savory. Dash of olive oil.
Big pot of red beans and rice on the side. My favorite salad as well. Regular lettuce, Feta cheese, and 1000 Islands dressing.

Leftover carnitas with charro beans, tortillas and pico tonight.

More spaghetti and meatballs but used rigatoni instead of sketti!!!

Just can't get enough of the meatballs now that I've mastered the recipe.

Last night was shirachi soft chicken tacos with cabbage, cilantro, carrots and green onions. Love those!!! They are my 3 a week now.

Originally Posted by byc

Is that recipe up top ?

TIA.

Yes Sir!

It's pretty much Dan's recipe. I believe the secret is soaking the bread or bread crumbs of any kind in milk or H&H. That made a huge difference for my end product.

Also, I bake them for about 20 minutes at 350.

I froze 24 meatballs in bags of 4 each!!

Thanks Dan!! David

Zero veal here and fresh herbs ain't happenin' either in my neck of the woods at this time of the year but I can wing it .

Time to start a small herb garden in my reloading room. Plenty of space.

How about ground pork? I've used that with beef and it works just as well.

Instead of fresh herbs dried Italian McCormick herbs work. Just use less as their flavors are intensified.

Gotcha .

Also, I bake them for about 20 minutes at 350.

I froze 24 meatballs in bags of 4 each!!

Thanks Dan!! David

Dan's meatball recipe is the schizzle, David.

Try them on a fresh hoagie roll with mozzarella layered over them.

Wrap in foil, but leave the cheesy top exposed.

Bake in oven at 325-350 for a few minutes until cheese melts and roll gets a little crusty.

Heavenly.

Chicken fried elk steaks. Fried in pure lard!! That's all.....

Again!!!

Gawd I love em this way!!

Italian sausage sandwiches and a Caesar salad is just an hour away. A new meat market opened up nearby so I decided to give them a go on the sausage.

chicken, broccoli and penne marinara with fresh garlic bread and a side salad!!!

Might spring for a little Pappy as a later dessert!!!!

Tomato gravy over boneless skinless yard bird.Hot buttered corn and garlic green beans. Simple.

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I've yet to try the tomato gravy. Soon!!

Make a simple roux with bacon grease. Add 'maters.Immersion blender is yer friend. Go from there with your seasonings.

YUM!!

Homemade chicken soup with acini de pepe

Never heard of that style of pasta before your post. Sounds pretty good. Check WM tomorrow after the dentist.Does it swell very much after cooking ?

Gonna make a big ass pot of meetahballz as well !

I cook it al dente in a separate pot and add to the bowl with the chicken soup

That was our standard meal when one of us was ill. In a simple chicken broth with a bit of Romano. As kids we called them BB's.

I dump mine on a proper salad with olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt and pepper. Been doing it since I was eight or so.

SOOOOOO good on a hot summer day !!! Might even be good in front of the wood stove as well.

I have a 4lb. can of tuna on the shelf that's a bit much for the dog and I. Does tuna freeze well ?

I have eaten worse than cold tuna from a can.

One sure way to learn about freezing the tuna, try it.

Pan fried rockfish and a salad

No pics for here. Scallops in browned butter, green onion, and pink lemon sauce.

Pinto Beans cooked with "ham leavings" and skillet corn bread.
Simple meal fit for a king.

Heat the skillet in the 425 degree oven while getting everything set up and it will have a nice brown bottom crust, cover with foil for half the cooking time.

I suggest Coscto's canned tuna. All the other name brands we grew up with now look and smell like something from the bottom of a muddy midwest river.

Yes sir

Thank you !

Hope you have your heart surgeon on speed dial !!!!!!! after that gorging, artery plugging sit down!!!!!

Why don't you, at least reply, to who you're talking to dickhead.

That way, we all don't have to take offense !

I guess there was only person whom gorged on that portion so don't think anyone else would be offended!! Normal people just dont eat that way !! AH!

Guessing you've never been out of the crack house to a Steak House.

Yep sure have but ate like a human not a T_REX Oh well not my Heart they are plugging. Saw two of wifes brothers suffer through heart surgery in the same week last week. sure makes that two pounds of steak look great

Not really sure why you post here but thank you for your concern for my health....and you did guess incorrectly I had a shrimp cocktail appetizer and my lady and I shared the steak...course she probably ate 6 oz

That does make a little more sense I thought maybe it was one of those "eat it all in " in 60 seconds or something stupid!! I just hope you are young and enjoy it while you can and maybe be lucky and never get plugged up ticker. One B I L said he would rather die next time rather than go through a massive heart attack and 5 artery bypass and recovery!

10/4 that!

Thanks for the clarification.

Maybe next time, skip the "snippiness" of the short sharp comments & add a little more background to why you are commenting & we'll all get along better.

We're all good folks, down here.

Save the "crap" for upstairs.

Cheers.

I haven't done it in a while but saw Mussels at Wegmans so picked up a bag (2lbs). Made a broth of white wine, chicken broth, some seared garlic and red onion and steamed them. That and a fresh baguette made a very tasty dinner.

Going to an Oysterfest at Heavy Seas brewing tomorrow so it's a bivalve weekend.

Sounds good, Pugs!

Wasn't sure what to have when I got home from work so I threw together some fish tacos with a chunk of yelloweye I had in the fridge. Had to bust out a selection of my hot sauces, couldn't decide which one to use so I made 4 and used all of them.

Well good folks, sort of a Rubin sandwich. Corned beef, Swiss, on dark bread.

Pumpernickel ?

Nothing in the world like a good fish taco.

Greg I agree. I could eat them every single day!!!

But it's gotta be good fresh fish otherwise

Colonoscopy prep for me this afternoon, and evening guys.

Enjoy the wings, and guacamole, and beverage of choice!
I'll hoist a half gallon of Gatorade, poyeth glycerol "cocktail" as sort of, sort of, a toast!

Well heck that was poor scheduling on your part

Thanks for Dan, I will likely survive.
The sooner I get it behind me the better!

Thick cut smothered pork loin slices with garlic green beans and pressure cooked russets.Ice cold milk. Pistachio almond ice cream for dessert.

Edit: This recipe is just great during cold weather but the next time I make it I'll add some sweet and sour red cabbage next to the taters and beans.

David, would this qualify as a meat and three ?

I,m thinkin' spaghetti tonight.
Not worth a new thread?, but any ideas?

Richard,

Just found out Deb has me booked for bum scope in March ! Excellent, right !

Apparently, it's the done thing at 50.

Well Paul, that is all behind me now.

If you have not had the old "roto-router", or "enjoyed", that barrel of Drain-o, you will learn that the "prep", is the worst of it.

Not being a doctor, I'm short a few hundred thousand dollars, and a hundred IQ points, it looks like finding cancer when it can be whipped is worth a LOT!

Still, a fellow would have to be sadistic to like the test.

Good luck with all of it, and see how fast the day comes!

Never met the man and wasn't around then to hear him lay 'em in the aisles. Have mercy on me .

Ya Richard, I'm hearing ya.

Dr says do it & be good for 10 years, before next one !

The tacos? Or the hot sauce? Sorry if that was misleading, I don't make my own hot sauce. The hot sauce is made by a guy I know that just moved to Colorado.

The tacos were made with yelloweye that I seasoned and pan fried with green peppers and jalapenos. I warm up the corn tortillas and put cheese on them to melt. The cooked fish comes up next with the hot sauce on top of that. Toss on a little lettuce on top of the fish and they are tasty! The picture was taken before I put the lettuce on them.

Yeah, meant the taycos. Sorry

I use Art's fish taco recipe now, but always look for something new.

I would be interested in that one. These ones I just threw together with what I had at the time. Living in the middle of nowhere you learn to make what you can with what you have :-)

Used the oven to roast the veggies: red bell pepper, onion, carrot, and of course the small potatoes.

Cooked the backstrap steaks and the crimini mushrooms in a skillet on the stovetop, seasoned only with black pepper and garlic. YUM!

That was dinner last night.

Nice !!

Last night was Thai red curry walleye & shrimp, with basmati rice.

Simple & tasty !

All good men.
I'll likely dine on the wife's chili she made for the church women's group soup supper.
I'll have to wait till she gets back home to try the home baked French bread.

Much better than that Gatorade, and water diet Sunday night!

Tonight it's going to be 1/3rd of a deer backstrap, cooked in a smoking hot CI pan & finished in the oven to 125*, rested & sliced + a brussel sprout & sweet tater thingy, that should look like this;

Lookin' good Paul!

It would be nice if we could entertain one a other in month or so.

Is there a Iowa hayseed dish you would like to try?

Cheers Richard,

We'll talk closer to when you're coming up.

We bought season passes to Giants Ridge MN, again this year, so more likely towards the end of your stay.

Good food is good food & same goes for company !

If it should work out Paul, we ought to see if Denny has a valid passport!

There quite possibility be the most excitement in Wabigoon since the tavern shut down. (You have been in the old Wabigoon Tavern?)

No passport but you're always welcome to visit West Virginia.

Best get the passport Denny! Or, is this like the time I called a girl for a date, and she said she had to straighten her hair that night?

Sorry about yer luck son.You should have tried harder. Maybe she would have let ya mess it up.

Can't think of anyone here that wouldn't be welcome in my home

Where to start Denny? As to the girl, as they say about Major League Baseball, "Some of the Best Deals are the Ones You Don't Make".

Did you fix your Google voice search ?

I need to educate myself on Red Curry. Like it in Thai restaurants.

I'm liking Aldi's large scallops. They're cryovaced with liquid and liquor sucked out before being weighed. They also don't shrink too badly.

This was dinner 2 nights ago. Used the leftover remoullade on a big burger for lunch yesterday.

Been fencing with a $1600 French door stainless steel monolith PITA holding down my kitchen floor all afternoon. May have to spoil myself a little tonight.

Home made is easy & best, but good quality "bottled" is readily available & pretty good.

Presidents Choice Thai / Sharwoods Thai / VN Thai.

Actually, been really taken by the VN Thai mango curry ! Recipe on side says; "add tofu, diced sweet potato & fresh spinach.

It's crazy good.

If you replace the tofu with chicken !!!

There's a good Asian market near me. Have to check it out. Thanks.

Leftover chili, perhaps a chili dog?

And Denny, in Dryden, Ontario, Paul's town, and were we shop while in Wabigoon, if you ask at the market for chili beans, they take you to the kidney beans.

Different ideas on food different places.

Not bad, variety is the spice of life, and it's been a while since we did burgers on the grill.

For culinary illumination I go to my Black Diamond headlamp. Great for in the glove compartment or night time trips to the woodpile.
I have several.

Now Denny, you remind me of the old, "Sticker Than a Harrow at Midnight".
Stay tuned.

A little off the beaten path but something Mom used to make.

Ma Po’s Bean Curd with ground venison (originally ground pork)

• 1 box tofu, firm or extra firm

A
• ½ tsp chopped garlic
• 3 tbls cooking oil (for venison, I do mostly butter and a splash of sesame seed oil)
• 2 tbsp chopped green onions
• 2 tsp chopped ginger
• ½ lb ground pork (substitute straight ground venison)
• 1sbsp hot bean paste (This is not actually hot. See pic below.)
• (With venison, I add a tiny pinch of Chinese five spice and a tsp of brown sugar. And I like more heat so I add some dried hot peppers to A.)

B
• 1 tbsp sake
• 1 cup water
• ½ tsp salt
• 1 ½ tbsp. shoyu (soy sauce)

C
• 3 tsp cornstarch
• 2 tbsp water

D
• 2 tbsp 2” long green onion
• ¼ tsp peppercorns

• Cut bean curd into bite sized squares.

• Heat pan and 3 tbsp oil/butter,
• stirfry (A) flavoring veggies until fragrant
• add pork and hot bean paste

• when meat is brown add bean curd and (B),
• simmer 3 mins on low

• add (C) to thicken and add green onions and pepper corns

Serve with rice and stir fried veggies.

The “hot” bean paste:

After pic.

uhhhh, I think tofu is forbidden here. lol

I was hoping mixing it with venison would legalize it. This and deep fried are about the only way I'll touch tofu.

I could make a list of food I do not like with a short lead pencil, and have plenty of lead left.

I have preferences but can make do with almost anything. I don't eat bugs unless of the 8 legged underwater kind. Never liked brussel sprouts. And there's some Asian pickle/fermented stuff that I won't try or haven't liked when I did. Had some salted dried squid legs once I had to spit out.

Oh, I guess I was thinking of less exotic foods than some of those.

Originally Posted by wabigoon

Richard, not everyone understands what "exotic" means to us Iowans (particularly those who grew up under a Scandinavian influence, i.e. Campbell's cream of whatever soup

).

Good point John, pizza was exotic in 1960!

My family moved around a lot, overseas and back, etc. We ate a lot of whatever people ate where we were--with some good old USA favorites thrown in when we could get the ingredients. Got made fun of sometimes for what Mom had packed in the lunch box.

The first that we ever heard of pizza was at the Southside Cafe in A.C. I remember Dad asking the waitress what this "Pizza Pie" on the menu was. At complete and total odds with Dad's usual approach to the unfamiliar, he ordered it. I imagine that it was some sort of frozen pre-made affair. He ate it, I don't remember trying any, and reported that it was "all right", which could have meant anything from "superb" to "on the order of baked cow pie". I do know that it was a long time before I once again made its acquaintance - probably not until high school.

John, there was a time when I thought a McDonald's burger was something new, and different.

I remember when The Villager went in on Flint Drive in Storm Lake and we thought that it was the greatest thing ever. Before that, it was Coney Dogs at the A&Root. When I first got to Ames, the only burger doodle was Henry's, where you could get 5 or 6 burgers and something like 10# of fries for some ridiculous price. After eating the fries, you could wring out the paper bag that they came in and have enough cooking oil for a month.

Now John, to thoroughly hijack this thread, ever try the old pranks?
Squirt lighter fluid under the dorm room door, and light it?
And, the list goes on------.

large shipping envelope filled with shaving cream - insert open edge beneath door of dorm room - stomp on evelope

push in against locked dorm room door (occupants inside) - insert pennies in space created between door and frame - release - occupants unable to unlock door due to pressure

dorm room door left unlocked - occupant(s) asleep - set vacuum cleaner in middle of room - extend cord to outlet by door - plug in and quickly close door

Scored three huge pranks in college, when I lived in the dorm at UF. First was a water filled weather balloon in a room. When the student came home, opening the door pushed a stick with a nail on it, into the balloon. Water cascaded down 4 stories.
Second was charged capacitor taped to the underside of the urinal in the communal bathroom. Wire from that to the bowl. Another wire to a puddle of salt water on the floor. Peeing completed the circuit.
Third was a ceiling light bulb in a room. Broke that, attached a cherry bomb to the filaments. A large ketchup filled bag was taped to that. Turn on the light, everything in the room is coated in Ketchup.

Steaks cooked over mesquite wood, baked tators, mac and cheese. Bud light

Pork/turkey Brunswick Stew....

Going to make slow roasted pork and hash brown casserole.

Tonight it will be chicken and andouille gumbo with tasso. I'm not doing the cooking however. An old friend is in town visiting his parents. His mother, an excellent cook, told him to call me up since she's making gumbo and there will be plenty to go around. Her batch size is bigger than mine. She will be using one of those large oval Magnalites that covers two burners, and if past experience is a guide it will be nearly brimming.

Here ya go.....

Ingredients
1 package (7 ounces) thin spaghetti, broken in half
2 cups cubed cooked turkey
1 cup sliced fresh mushrooms
1 small onion, chopped
3 tablespoons butter
1 can (10-3/4 ounces) condensed cream of mushroom soup, undiluted
1 cup milk
1/2 teaspoon poultry seasoning
1/8 teaspoon ground mustard
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup (4 ounces) shredded part-skim mozzarella cheese
1 tablespoon shredded Parmesan cheese
Minced fresh parsley

Thanks Boots!

Thinking either chili slaw dogs or cabbage rolls......

78 degrees here!!

I'm medium BGE grilling a giant bacon cheeseburger!!

Maybe some blue cheese and red onion.

wondering what to fix for dinner, and remembered all that fresh frozen fish in the Freezer. Thawed out a package of Snapper pieces. Probably was Yellowtail.
Breaded it up with my own breading, and made some rice and veggies. Fried in Peanut oil on the stove. Awfully good. Tartar sauce is my old restaurant recipe.

Looks great, Sam. I got some rock fish in the freezer from October trip. May have to get some of that out tonight.

What is your tartars sauce recipe, if you would not mind sharing?

with no real quantities involved, it's Duke's Mayo, horseradish, Tony Chachere's seasoning, lemon juice, fine diced onion and sweet relish.
When in the restaurant biz, we made it by the gallon, and there was a specific recipe. I have that somewhere. I think.

Thanks.

Early dinner for me tonight.

Italian flank steak sammies.

MMM MMM good

Flank steak marinated overnight in my special italian dressing, sprinkled with kosher salt and cracked pepper then placed in a screaming hot CI pan 3 minutes per side. COUGH, COUGH, COUGH.

Finished to 125 in a 350 oven. Sliced across the grain before placing coarsely chopped pieces in another CI skillet filled with veggies.

Topped with provolone on hard Italian rolls of course .

Ice cold milk.

Bangin' mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

that calls for a Moretti Birra

Bart's Chili is on the stove simmering. Just the ticket for a cold day up here after our modest Feb warm up. NW wind sort of has a bite to it at 15*.

Was planning on cornbread in the CI, but the wife is asking for something called "hot water" cornbread? No idea what it is or how to make it.

Had to look that one up, Sam. For most folks beef and beer just pair well together but I'm the oddball.

Coke or ice cold milk for me as I seldom drink.

Well Denny, my sweet wife asks for some things I don't know how to do.
I tell her, "No matter how much I love you, I can not make water run up hill".

She is seldom impressed.

Thanks Denny!

We don't fry very often here, but I would be willing to give that a go. Certainly looks different than regular baked Jiffy cornbread that I make. That dude said it was soul food. Interesting...where my wife had it.

Soul food ????

We gots soul food.

WORD !!!!

I'm not...I can't even...uh...no words for that.

So I took a shot and tried to make it with Jiffy mix. Epic fail. I think actual corn meal is needed. While I dearly love my wife, I think we'll wait a while before another attempt. The kitchen was kind of a mess. I think it best I take her out to dinner tonight.

But for 7 months out of the year it sure is nice to buy them @ SC street corners for 5 bucks a lb AND right out of SC waters!!

Just avoid the bleached ones.

I need another freezer.

Damn, I feel sorry for you guys.

That sounds interestingly good

I'm trying to talk the wife into using the gift certitudes we received for Christmas tonight.

The place is for sale, and we might noose, and lose.

While still simmering I made a pot of sauce today. Ground elk and pork, elk/pork Italian sausage links, elk/pork meatballs. The taster meatball was very good. Sipping a few cocktails before throwing the ravioli in the water.

Ham & Beans...

simple meal last night. Kielbasa Sausage, cut into chunks, and cooked on a sheet pan with onions and taters. Green salad on the side. Ice cold Yuengling beer. Good stuff.

Looks great Buddy

Is this the same as chicken piccata? if so, I made it last week and could not get the odor out of my entire house. Thinking it was the lemon cream combo.

The dish was great but next time I'll prepare it in the ouside kitchen.

As I recall I used:

Chicken
Thyme
Rosemary
Lemons
Cream
Whole grained mustard
Shallots
Garlic
White wine
Capers
Red pepper flakes

Nope different David

Flour
Eggs
Parmesan cheese
garlic
parsley
EVOO
Butter
Sherry
Chicken stock
Lemons

we're pretty close on the ingredient list. Not sure what lingered here but it did.

Now I'm also considring a much more robust exhaust fan versus the over the stove microwave. Maybe that's the difference.

At any rate, I'll give your recipe a shot!

Thanks!!

Me and the wife had roasted turkey breast,potatoes,carrots,brussel sprouts with garlic.

Looks killer BH! I've never had a cast iron "grill" but think I need one.

You blanch the Brussels? They have that poppin green color.

No blanch,just low heat.Cooked it a little more after the picture.Used a little olive oil and butter.On the turkey,I used lemon zest,lemon juice,olive oil and butter for a baste.Cast iron is the way to cook in the oven.

Yes, it does.

B/sprouts are an under utilized vegetable. We love them, probably 'cause we don't boil da sheet otta dem, like our parents did !

cooked a chicken, and shredded the meat. Using the cooking liquid, did a bag of egg noodles. Added mushrooms, two pounds of frozen mixed veggies, onions, garlic and seasoning.
I'm afraid I'll be eating chicken soup for a week now. lol

Last night had friends over.

Elk tenderloin seasoned in olive oil/salt/pepper/garlic powder/soy sauce/worcester/ and some juniper berries for a couple days .

Grilled with a twice baked potato and some mushrooms and onions. Added a little Madera to that mix and it was worth doing.

Sorry Ella, was visiting the USofA for a long weekend of snow boarding fun !!

It's a Jamie Oliver recipe;

Ingredients
sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
50 g fresh or frozen peas
600 g potatoes
½ a bunch of fresh chives
2 x 180g tins of quality salmon
1 lemon
1 tablespoon plain flour , plus extra for dusting
1 large free-range egg
olive oil

Method

This recipe is so tasty that it’s a really good idea to double or triple the quantities and freeze batches for another day – just make sure you defrost them thoroughly before using, then follow the cooking instructions below.
1. Half-fill a large saucepan with cold water and add a tiny pinch of salt.
2. Place on a high heat and bring to the boil. Meanwhile…
3. If using fresh peas, pod them into a bowl, then leave to one side.
4. Use a Y-shaped peeler to peel the potatoes, then chop into 1cm chunks on a chopping board.
5. Once the water is boiling, carefully add the potatoes, bring back to the boil, then turn the heat down to medium and simmer gently for around 10 minutes, or until cooked through, adding the peas for the last 2 minutes. Meanwhile…
6. Finely chop the chives and add them to a mixing bowl.
7. Drain the salmon in a sieve over the sink .
8. Add the salmon to the bowl, using a fork to flake it into small chunks.
9. Once cooked, drain the potatoes and peas in a colander over the sink then leave them to cool completely. Meanwhile…
10. Use a microplane to finely grate the lemon zest, then add it to the bowl along with the flour.
11. Crack in the egg and season with a tiny pinch of pepper.
12. Once cool, tip the potatoes and peas back into the pan and use a potato masher to mash them really well.
13. Add the mash to the bowl, then mix together until really well combined.
14. Sprinkle a little flour over a clean work surface and onto a large plate.
15. Divide the mixture into 8 and use your hands to pat and shape each ball into a fishcake, roughly 2cm thick.
16. Place them onto the floured plate, dusting your hands and the top of each fish cake lightly with flour as you go.
17. Place a large frying pan on a medium heat and add 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
18. Carefully place the fishcakes into the pan and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until crisp and golden, turning carefully with a fish slice.
19. Cut the zested lemon into wedges.
20. Serve the fishcakes with some seasonal green veg or a fresh green salad and lemon wedges for squeezing over.

Jamie's top tip: This is recipe is just as delicious made with tinned tuna, or you could swap the regular potatoes for a few sweet potatoes.

I love seafood but don't have a lot of experience with it.

Those suckers look good with a little char. And anything that can be made in mass and frozen is good.

I've saved that recipe.

Snowed in so figure I'll make corned beef and cabbage a couple days early

Last night was beef stroganoff with basmati rice !

Just reheated some for lunch - Mmmmm

Tonight, roast chicken legs & thighs (marylands) & roasted sweet potato, buttered peas & corn.

Much the same here tonight, corned beef, potatoes, Manitoba reds, onions, carrots, cabbage, and light rye bread.

That broth is begging for some good bread to be dipped in it!!

We did the corned beef a couple of nights back.

Tonight, rouladen, German noodles, red cabbage, creamed corn, and berries for dessert.

Root Beer Ribs. I took a baby back rib rack and seasoned it with cajun season, paprika and garlic powder on both sides, layed it down in my big oval slow cooker, poured 2 cans Barq's Root Beer and let it cook for 4 hours, poured off the Root Beer, added some BBQ sauce, cooked it another 30 min. It came out very tender and tasty.

Ah, now I understand!

When I read your first post above, I was wondering how you had picked up the habit of vinegar on the chips -- Canucks!

When I lived in the USA, I sometimes got the strangest looks when I asked for vinegar for my fries.

Vinegar on chips seems much more common in the UK and in Canada than in many parts of the USA

John

Cider vinegar on fries is delish. Try a little mustard on them as well.

All the fish n chip places on the coast put catchup and malted vinegar on the tables.

Got some rock cod I thawed out yesterday, gonna have that tonight. Caught it off the point out in front of Vandenburg.

Nice. Wanna try some of those Rock Cod some time. I hear they're pretty tasty.

Reverse seared filet mignon.
Sauteed yellow squash with onions, chopped garlic, fresh thyme, chopped parsley, Greek evoo from Crete, sprinkled parmesan.
Mashed red potatoes with chopped parsley and minced shallots.

Tried something different for a change with the reverse sear. It's actually a little more done than I typically like. RARE and hair, baby!

Beef and barley vegetable soup
Peninsula Clarion

1 pound lean ground beef

1 small onion, chopped

One cup sliced celery

1 cup fresh sliced carrots

1/2 (10-ounce) bag fresh cut green beans

1 medium to large zucchini, sliced

1/2 (10-ounce) box frozen spinach

1/2 cup frozen peas

2 cloves garlic, minced

3 quarts low-sodium beef broth

1 (28-ounce) can whole tomatoes, undrained

1-1/2 cups "quick" pearled barley

1 tablespoon fresh minced parsley, plus more for garnish

1 teaspoon dried basil

1-2 bay leaves

Salt and fresh ground black pepper

In a large Dutch oven, over medium heat, lightly brown meat. Drain off all but 1 tablespoon of the fat, then stir in onion, celery, carrots and green beans. Cook for 10 minutes. (If needed, some water to the cooking pot.)

Add garlic and cook for 1 minute. Stir in broth, tomatoes (crush tomatoes lightly with your hands), barley, parsley, basil, and bay leaf.

Reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add zucchini, spinach and peas and cook 10 minutes more. Season with salt and fresh ground pepper, to taste.

Remove bay leaves and garnish with fresh minced parsley before serving.

Makes about 16 (1 cup) servings.

Unless it's chicken killed in the woods. Or you feed wood to the chicken. But you can't feed chicken to the woods.

However, you can eat chicken in the woods, which will taste like chicken in the woods. But it won't taste like woods in the chicken.

fungi the version I found was more of a large clump of mushroom(edible) smooth on bottom. I was cutting chunks to fru that were 1/2 thick by 2 by 3. I took it to our County Extention office to get it verified. Never saw one before but there is another one out there for thr next trip that was about a gallon in size. I have friends kiddingly tell me to text them tomorrow to make sure I survived!!! Haha you are correct chicken of the woods or some say hen of the woods.

Kaywoodies sliced and diced pork sausage, onions, and potatoe ragout !

That looks like it would be good next to a couple of fried eggs for breakfast but I'd eat it any time of day....or night.

Thanks compadres! It is one of my most favorite meals! Especially at the cabin or in hunting camp! Easy too!!! I could eat it ever day!

And when done is sure makes that cast iron look purty !

Possibly!

. Wifey is one with heart issues.

I have no heart!

I worked with a gal who's first nursing job was with the county. She went out in the country checking on old folks health and welfare. She said the hardest part of her job was trying to convince 86 year ofld women that they could not be feeding their 92 year old husband's bacon and eggs every morning for breakfast! It was not healthy! LOL!

A heart stint, and atorvastatin is why I'm around to pester the good folks here.

Atorvastatin is one of the many drugs wifey takes too!

#1 drug in the US! Most know it by Lipitor. I'm on it too. Better living through chemistry. Now...where's the bacon?!

Sausage & Chicken Gumbo...

Fried Cabbage and Kelbasa with tomato's.

Lobster Alfredo, with two pounds of Maine Lobster meat. Mixed green salad with apples, blue cheese and walnuts. Garlic toast. All from scratch.

That's a winner Sam!

Damnit, Sam! That looks like I don't want to step on the scales delicious!

A simple grilled sharp cheddar cheese sandwich with tomato basil soup. Hit the spot well.

Beef Stroganoff with wide egg noodles and it was great!!

Used a remaining tenderloin tail. Lots of mushrooms of all types.

Ed, had a BLT and tomato soup last night. Tomato soup and any simple sandwich is my fav!!

Flank steak on the grill. Brussels sprouts tossed w EVOO and garlic topped with some parm and oven roasted.

No pics. Just take my word.

Mike have you ever thrown the flank steaks directly on the hot coals?

It's very cool!!

lol

I resisted gas as long as I could. It's gas 90% of the time now.

I'd be too ascAred to do that any damn way.

My wife loved it so that means it was overdone.

Little pig now in my belly!!

About 2 hours of low heat and smoke. Stuffed with potatoes, onion, peeled
Mandarin oranges and 1/2 stick butter.

Roughly 5 hours later! Low and slow heat. Tender as my heart! (If I had one!!!). It was good!!!!

Very nice kaywoodie!!!

Yeah, man!

Throw a hunk in a tortilla with a toss of cilantro and a bit of green salsa and I would be spinning.

That looks "the bomb" !!

love me some low & slow.

That does look awesome. Small pig, looks like a rabbit to me.

Black Bear steaks on the outdoor grill. Pecan wood burned down to coals. Steaks rubbed with EVOO, then rubbed with some sea salt and black pepper.
Chewy, but awfully tasty. Green salad, 'taters baked in foil in the coals. Home made sour cream. Not bad, but it's not good beef.

Sam, I hate to see you so desperate you're reduced to eating bear. Send me, or Sam Olson a PM, and we might be able to find some good ole' beef for you!

Nice Sam!

Sam, many years ago my dad and I would camp om the snake river in Idaho. Our taters were always cooked in the coals but we slathered them in river mud to make a kind of a shell. Darn good and the mud really lent an extremely nice earthy taste to them. mm mm good. Try it sometime.

Remove "shell" before eating of course.

Nothing like the small of bannock baking by the campfire.

Really Bob ?

You're making me drool all over myself.

Probably a ham sandwich here.

Dan..Is that Wegmans up your way? if so, the stores down this way do not have that setup yet. In fact, they've cut back on their market offerings and focused more on the cryo-packed stuff. It's a little disappointing.

The Thursday before Easter they had 2 dry aged strips for sale. Whole Foods had at least 20 as well as other cuts.

Wegman's left the fish market up but really downsized beef. MRC's have also become the rave in NOVA.

Yes that's the flagship store in Pittsford

Deb is in St. Martin so I treated myself!

Just yanked a giant Wegman's butt that went on at 9 last night. So that's about 17 hours at 235-250 dome. Looks perfect!

Pulled pork on Marty's jumbo buns topped with cole slaw and kitchen made hot vinegar sauce will be it!!

It's raining so might make some Brunswick stew with the leavens! Really need a pig head for that but oh well.

A simple salad tonight with our first greens from the garden (nice zippy stuff), green onions, avocado and Compari tomatoes with a can of Costco albacore dumped on top. Olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper. It was killer.

From the garden is great!!

I may have already posted this but Costco canned tuna is the only canned tuna I will eat Ed. The rest is garbage.

The Kirkland brand wild Alaskan salmon cakes are also great!! Especially grilled.

David

You folks are eatin' high on the hog, things got late here.
The t-bone will have to wait, the baked potato was a nice snack.

Last night was a pastrami sammich. Took a corned beef rinsed and dry rubbed with my kitchen sink BBQ rub. Red onion from the farmers market, dill rye bread, course brown mustard.

Oh boy!

Sean, could you go into a little greater detail ? Grilled, smoked ?

Love my pastrami with deli mustard, and a slice all up on Jewish rye with a spear on the side.

Ain't no delis in WV.

Got a corned beef brisket on sale. Ditched the pickling spice mix, rinsed it off, and hit it with my kitchen sink dry rub that I decribed in the aged steak thread of Mike's a couple weeks ago. Just baked it the oven for three hours at 325. Foiled it and returned for 2 1/2 more at 275. Not a true "pastrami", but close enough.
Dill the bread. Mayo on one slice, course ground mustard on the other, with thin sliced raw red onion I got at the farmers market.

Sounds great, Kbub! Maybe one of these days when the German folks can bring Merkel to her senses, I'll go back. Beautiful part of the world. As is Ostereich.

Brings back great memories. Some of the best food I had in all of Europe.

Doggone, Dan. That burger looks like it'd melt in your mouth.

Low key last night.

Bangers, mash & pan gravy.

I don't care so much what you good folks eat, but could you post pictures of shredded wheat, and skim milk? I gain weight just looking!

After having this for a late lunch after leaving the Dr's office yesterday

figured I'd go just a tad lighter at dinner last night. Shrimp tacos using jumbo shrimp sauted in olive oil, fresh parsley and slivers of garlic. With some of Mr. Sam-mule Mannlicher's homemeade citrus hot sauce and some of my homemade cilantro cream sauce. With a dash of Penzey's Cajun seasoning sprinkled on top.

Outstanding Greg those taco's look delicious!

Yes, they sure do !!!!

I made pulled pork last weekend. I usually make cole slaw as the side, but my daughter asked for my mom's red cabbage, which I typically make with a pork roast. Might look strange to the uninitiated, but it's delicious.

Ate enough of that red cabbage to float a boat on trips to Europe, and still love it.

Its well well red

I love German style red cabbage.

Tonight, for me... Ham and beans with a few saltine crackers...

Gotta be honest. While it's my mom's recipe, it's originally out of a recipe book from 'Luchow's" German restaurant in NYC.

Goes great with a roast pork loin and mashed taters.

That's how I usually do it, but this was a special request.

I snack on leftover cold too.

Beef Stroganoff over egg noodles tossed with butter and parsley.

Yum Greg !

Last night was grilled Lamb loin chops with herb crumb topping, butter & parsley baby taters, steamed cauliflower & roasted pumpkin.

Finished off with a lemon square.

So many different styles/recipes for stroganoff, so I'm gunna start a thread, at lunchtime today, asking people to post their favourite style & recipe !

Hope ya'll can contribute.

Winters still hanging on here so I have a pot of Ham and Great Northern's on with a loaf of fresh Sour Dough standing by.
I made the beans with homemade vegetable stock and they smell wonderful. Taste pretty good too.

I'm with ya FG.

Was a bit sunny and dry the last 36hours so I tried mowing the lawn when I got home.

It started raining immediately. Lol. Mower was choking out. It's out of control over here. Fit to drown a toad.

Anyway, Progresso Lentil soup outta da can. It's killer.

Made a pan of corn bread. Little coarse ground, little more fine ground, some AP flour, eggs, butter, milk, honey, baking soda and a Serrano chili diced up super fine.

Yea....I think your weather eventually becomes our weather.
I compare our "spring" to living in a petri dish....everything's green but most of it's mold and moss.

That Lentil soup sounds good, I'll have to try some since I too ain't above eating out of a can.

Deb's hand made, pork & shrimp steamed dumplings & Asian sweet chilli dipping sauce. They were killer & the texture was amazing.

She was extremely proud of them & I know she snapped a pic, I'll see if I can coax it outta her.

Greg try those "ugly tomatoes." They appear to be the closest thing to a year round garden fresh tomato that I can find.

My brother in law and I came up with this awhile back. Our redneck version of the Surf-N-Turf roll:

Cucumber, cold-smoked Alaskan salmon, cream cheese and avocado sushi roll topped with elk "sashimi." Served with soy/wasabi of course.

For the elk we sliced it thin from a round roast, and mixed it in a bowl with sesame seed oil, a little teriyaki, salt and pepper and let it sit for an hour or so.

It was awesome.

Huntin- tell me more about how you prepare the elk round? Is it raw and simply "brined" in the sesame/teriyaki mix?

That looks out standing! I love good carpaccio. The salmon and cuke sound perfect with it.

Originally Posted by MadMooner

Yessir, it is raw. I slice it thin first and then I just kinda add the sesame oil to taste. Just a splash of teriyaki, little salt and pepper. Mix it all together well and let it set awhile. Then enjoy. We had made the elk as an appetizer first and it was excellent...and we thought it would be perfect on a sushi roll. We were right.

Another way I like to do raw elk (not on sushi) is to slice the meat thin and then add some olive oil, fresh garlic, sea salt, cracked pepper and lemon or lime juice. Let it sit an hour or several. With the lime juice the meat turns grey-ish and the consistency changes a bit (kinda like when you make ceviche).

Both of these recipes are great as well if you sear the meat quickly on each side but personally I prefer it raw.

I'll have to check out a carpaccio recipe.

My kids and I did a redux tonight. I'm not the sushi artist my bro-in-law is, but it was excellent. Had ponzu sauce tonight which improved it further.

Madmooner, this time I sliced the elk thin and just added sesame seed oil, ponzu sauce and Coconut Secret Teriyaki Sauce. That would be awesome as an appetizer.

They both looks awesome !!

Cheese & terrine platter for Sunday lunch;

Pork & Shrimp meatballs in aromatic Asian broth for dinner;

Looking good. A guy I work with makes terrines occasionally and usually gives me some, love it.

Alright, check this out. Been tinkering with this. These pics are of the second attempt which was good but I got the meat a little too done. Less time in the oven next attempt. Still quite good though.

Deer backstrap (first time I used eye of round roast and it worked great, no need to use a backstrap):

Filleted open:

Salt and pepper, sear both sides in bacon fat. Remove and immediately brush with English mustard (or horseradish). Then stuff with smoked Alskan salmon, horseradish cheddar cheese (or pepper jack is also good) and Parmesan cheese, fresh thyme sprinkled throughout:

Tie that sucker up and bake it in bacon fat and thyme syrup for 15-20 minutes to desired wellness (medium rare recommended, this came out med well

)

Remove from pan, remove string and slice into medallions. Thyme syrup drizzled on top is also good:

Recipe for thyme syrup, stolen from a cocktail recipe:
Bring 1/2 cup water to a boil. Throw in a handful of thyme sprigs and let steep 10-15 minutes. Stir in 1/2 sugar until dissolved.

Dan, how come you're not 500 lbs? That all looks good.

Taco soup tonight.

aaah am so hungry

Bearing in mind my hurt feeler, after being chastised for being to "hoity toity"yesterday, last nights dinner was best described as being a poor mans, one pot, throw together.

Acid test coming up for me . My meat guy has 12-13 pound PBs in stock. Smallest he carries. My mother always deep fried (pre BGE era) hers. Maybe cut it down to #2 chunks and try it on my pellet grill.

Youtube will be my friend.

Boys, my hurt feeler was completely tongue in cheek. At my mature age, life has taught me enough lessons !

Oh, & Denny, the only thing I "pair" with my food, is a beverage of choice !

Good luck with the PB. If done properly (any number of ways), it is a favourite.

Just knew you were a good man. Thanks for the optimism on the PB.

12-13 #. Plenty of trial and error space. LOL

Twice baked potato and corn pudding here tonight.

I keep hearing of corn pudding, and I have eaten lots of corn, but never corn pudding. What exactly is it? By the way, my supper was pasta (Vermicelli I think) with a sauce using ground venison. Home made. miles

It's just corn, eggs, and corn starch. Kind of a corn souffle.
I don't like sweets so I don't put near as much sugar as most recipe's call for. Sometimes I omit it entirely.

Just stuck a Jäger Eintopf in the oven for an hour or so. Ground Nilgai, sliced mushrooms and chopped leeks in a cream sauce. Sautee In butter and minced garlic. Topped with mash potatoes and grated cheddar!

It really was good!!

I needed an escape today so cooking was it.....tortellini with a bechamill sauce, peas, shrimp and conecuh sausage...and some fresh grated smoked mozzarella.

The local grocery chain had corned beef on sale for .79¢ per Lb. So, I bought about 20 of the darned things. I went through them all and picked the very largest they had.

So... today it was corned beef. Carrots, onions... and sauerkraut of all things. With a little spiced up german mustard & horseradish.

Yum !

It's really simple with the right combination of the right ingredients.

Will be getting some more outstanding tomatoes from the Farmer's Market out by the Glades on Wednesday. Really looking forward to some salsa.

For the elk we sliced it thin from a round roast, and mixed it in a bowl with sesame seed oil, a little teriyaki, salt and pepper and let it sit for an hour or so.

It was awesome.

looks really good, at what temperature the you use to heat the beef.?

Stuffed eggplant. From scratch. Possibly my best ever so far.

Room temp, or a little colder

Thanks for the fix....no matter what I did it wouldn't post as usual...

No problem, happy to help.

With the new changes, when linking to your photobucket images, just copy & paste directly into the reply box. Don't use the "image insert icon". You only seem to need it if you're hotlinking to web images.

If you do insert into the image box, it adds an extra set of "[img]" thingies at each end of your "insertion" !!

Fish tacos with an of the cuff sauce...fresh yellow and red tomatoes, jalapeños, sour cream, mayo, toasted sesame seeds, cilantro, poppy seeds, fresh lemon juice, S&P and fresh ginger.....all together.. shaken not stirred

I'd chomp on them!

& drink that frosty beer !!

New take on an old favourite for us !

One of Deb's clients gave us 3lbs of bison burger, that she ground & seasoned, pre freezing with onion powder.

Deb added her Cajun spice concoction + an egg & a good dash of worcestershire sauce & made 6 burger patties.

Grilled, + melted havarti & onto fresh buns + bacon jam, large slice of tomato & big handful of baby spinach leaves.

Mmmmmmm !

Nice!

Brontosaurus Beef Ribs

Damn good looking ribs! For some reason, shorties just didn't sound right!

Forgot to take an after pic. Stir fried these vegetables and served over jasmine rice with roasted and pulled chicken folded in.

Also made some fresh salsa from the tomatoes and onions I picked up at the Farmer's Market by one of the north Glades entrances.

Carnitas tonight. Simple and good from the cook on my spring 2016 brown bear hunt in SE Alaska.

i like that dish, the food, and the dish. We collect old time rose print dishes.

Ed, those carnitas look awesome.

Been back with my daughters visiting, so today they cooked a late lunch as part of my Mothers' Day celebration, and they pampered me beyond anything I deserved.

Delicious pork ribs, skinned and baked potatoes, grilled asparagus, and coleslaw. Tangy lemon tarts with whipped cream and coffee will be served while watching one of my gifts, a DVD from a collection of the old television program Picket Fences.

I am blessed

A couple of different angle shots:

Looks great, Miss Lynn! And Happy Mother's Day, btw.

bush's baked beans on toast, little grated cheddar & under the broiler !

Deer Sketty !

Ham, brown eggs, homey fries.

Rib steak and poblano cheese sauced cauliflower.

That sounds good

Pork sausage, mashed sweet potato, baby peas & corn.

Last night I made grilled Pimento Cheese sandwich and Tomato soup.
I love Pimento Cheese....make it often but I always ate it on crackers for lunch until I ran across a recipe using it for grilled cheese's.
Holy crap...I don't know if I'll ever make a traditional grilled cheese again.
I put a little to much on so it was pretty messy if you like to dip your sandwich in the soup like I do but I won't make that mistake again.

Noon today, beef brisket on grill, potato salad, baked beans, left over asparagus. Rainy day.

It's basically cheddar, mayo, a little worchester, and pimento's.....pretty simple....here's the one I ran across....it's pretty close to mine cept I use sharp cheddar and throw in about 1/2 tsp. of cajun seasoning.

http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/grilled-pimiento-cheese-sandwiches

Nice. Gonna be sandwiches and soup or salad one day this week.

It's awsome......
That recipe suggested spreading Mayo on the out side instead of the butter I usually use for a grilled cheese so I gave it a try.
It tastes great and works just as well as butter...give it a try.
The whole mess is a heart attack looking for a victim but I don't plan on living forever.

That looks fugkin awesome.

Homemade chiliquiles with home made beans this morning. I need to do this more often.

This'll work! I'm a sucker for a grilled cheese and tomato soup.

Going down early tonight so all done.

Grilled marinaded (lime vinaigrette) flank steak, vege kabobs to include mini San Marzano tomatoes, with rice pilaf and Texas toast!!

Great hot rainy day supper. Thank you Lord!

BTW grilled pimento cheese anything rocks. Try it atop a broiled garden fresh tomato with bacon and panko!

Deli roast beef sandwiches, with cheese, French fries, and canned peaches.

Try butter on the grill side and mayo on the cheese side. Add a spoonful or two of salsa between the cheese layers.

Pimento Cheese is made with mayo so adding mayo to mayo would be mote wouldn't it?

And there are no "layers of cheese" to put the salsa between.

Tell the truth.....you didn't read my whole post did you?

A couple of crab cakes and a salad with greens and tomatoes from the garden.

Jealous here on the garden tomatoes.

Just trying to hep ya do it right!

I still put mayo on a 'menter cheese sandwich cos I never know what kind of mayo was used unless the PC was made by me. BUT!!

If you really want something good .... instead of butter use mayo on the grill side!!!! Hmmmmmm.....

Truth......this was the first time I tried it but it won't be the last. And that's from a guy that loves butter.

Tried this on a cheddar/jarlsberg grilled cheese for lunch the other day. Made a flakier crust on the bread than butter usually produces.

Thanks, FG. I had made a nice batch a few months ago. Ate some, some went to Mr. Mannlicher and his lady, and the rest went in the freezer. Well.. for the last month, every time I opened that freezer, that gumbo was staring at me. Didn't do that much longer.

Had about 3 dinners out of that pack, and then gone.

Aldi's had some really nice corned beef flat cuts on sale for $3.79/lb. Not fatty at all. Picked one out and dropped it in the pot. Flipped it over when I pulled it out and scraped the thin fat cap off with a spoon.

On my "yuppie" square plate, as my bud eh76 likes to call them.

Fresh Green Beans (no, raw store bought) and steamed corn on the cob!

These were killer.

Slobbering here !

LOVE wet-style, slow cooked, gelatinous wings !!!

After LD's post the other day it dawned on me that I haven't had a Gumbo fix for a month or two so I picked up the makings while I was in town today and made a batch.

I'm feeling better already.

Sausage and shrimp

Pancakes!

Bisquick, butter, and homemade blackberry and blueberry jam.

Birthday dinner !

Paul, how was fishing on the opening weekend?

Happy Birthday!

Never under estimate the goodness of some grilled hoffman snappy grillers....grilled with a dab of bacon grease
....and sport peppers

I'm curious too.
Looks like some kind of something something something Leek Pasta.
Looks good what ever it is.

Terrible Richard !!

Both weekends, so far. Water temp still really cold. Managed a meals worth each trip, but not NORMAL !

I believe the small lakes are fishing OK, but I sold my 12 footer in the spring. Duh.

Cheers & Thank you Dan.

Mushrooms (brown cremini & shiitake), leek & tarragon in garlic cream sauce, over lasagna sheet pasta !

Delicious !

That sounds and looks great, Paul!

Fried liver, onion, mashed potatoes and gravy. Boys, that stuff will grow hair on your chest. Ladies... Stay away from the liver

I like beef liver, I'm not suppose to indulge in that much cholesterol. Ever hear, it takes a good man to grow hair on your chest, a better man to wear it off?

Not dinner, but....
Blueberry cheesecakes.

Chicken Pastina Soup with some Texas Toast to sop it up with.

Multi cultural don'tcha know.

Darn sure would! It's been raining off and on for 3 days here!

Pulled pork sammies with Cole slaw on top. Not too bad.

Sadly it was done in the oven as my Traeger threw a fit (one of many) and will be going to the scrap heap this week. Diggin' the pellet concept as it's truly set it and forget it.

Yoder in my future. Count on it !

Some emblematic dish based off of southern Louisiana Creole cuisine traditionally made on Monday's...cooked together in a Calphalon pot, slowly with Conecah sauguage, served over elegant white rice...served on the side is an ever so saught after high temperature cooked bread made from corn meal and other secret ingredients along side of some garden fresh southern raised vegetable bulb........or

Basic red beans and rice...with some high temp cornbread....

Looks good, boots!

wish you wouldn't have posted that boots......now I got a hankering.

laffin....that's what happened to me.....

Looks good! You gotta eat before you view this thread.

We had

Pork chops, potato salad, fried banana peppers stuffed with cheese.
Got the before pics but forgot the afters until too late.

Thanks. I have a whole set of those...well...what's left of a set after some breakage over the years.
Don't like the soup bowls though so I picked up a couple of cheapies.

The lettuce looks like it just came out of the garden. You guys are killing me.

Ella,

That baby squash looks awesome !

Bread crumbs ? Egg dip ?

Share ?

Lynn

Gotta love the spring veggies.

I dipped the baby squash in buttermilk then rolled it in flour and cornmeal--about half and half, with salt and pepper, and I like to throw a couple tablespoons of finely minced onions, garlic, and chives in. I bet some bread or crackercrumbs would work too.

Tonight was roasted butternut squash in browned butter and garlic with farfalle.

Don't do too many meatless meals, but I've ate pretty rich with burgers and rack of lamb and rib steaks the last four days!

And scallops!

Fajita night, my way...finely cut beef, seasoned with...fajita seasonings, accompanied with slowly braised purple cabbage, and a sautéed bulb crop...following a paste of dukes, jalapeños, tarter and spices...topped with blue cheese and sour cream!....all the while accompanied with Ben Haggard and a couple of Blind Pirates...

Yup, that'll eat !

Left over fajita meat?.....becomes a version of Philly cheese steak...arranged on a fresh baked baguette, a mix of Italian and grated smoked guuere, fresh thinly sliced onion with dukes and S&P.

Smoked brisket sammich with a fresh horseradish sauce, coleslaw, tatter salad and sweet corn.

That looks great........

Taco Tuesday here.....I always opt for a taco salad at the house
Ground chuck with onions an seasonings, black beans, rotell tomatoes, sauteed purple cabbage, crumbled corn shells, 4 cheese, mixed greens, sour cream, S&P...
accompanied with James McMurtry playing and banana nut bread baking....grin

That look so good, I can smell it.

I like the looks of that brisket sandwich platter.

I haven't had brisket in a while....

Tried to replicate a dish I had a while back. Turned out pretty well.

Pique Peppers stuffed with some ground elk and spinach a little Romesco sauce and some Spanish Manchago grated on topped and heated until hot (I cooked the meat prior to stuffing)

Looks good Alan!

It wasn't pretty but was tasty. The peppers came from the olive bar at Wegmanns.

Found a new meat market close to home. Run by a couple of Mexican fellas. Picked up a pound of boudin and some tamales.

The boudin wasn't quite like what I've had before, but was dam good non the less. Fried up the green chili tamales and broiled some asparagus to go with.

Slow cooked beef short rib ragout with gnockie.

Delicious !!

Paul, we do need to get together. My cooking likely can't hold a candle to yours, but I'll try.

Yes, quite right Dan.

Didn't look right when I typed it, but nothing I did made that, cursed, red line disappear !

I aint no 'murican though, either !

I had to look up "romesca sauce." Peppers and almonds--that's a new combination to me.

Originally Posted by Ella

This is the basic recipe I use. I do add some more smoked paprika. It's good with a lot of stuff. I usually use the stick blender instead of getting out the food processor.

http://www.seriouseats.com/recipes/2011/07/sauced-romesco-sauce-recipe.html

Thanks. I saved that recipe. That's the kind of thing I'd never come across on my own. Love peppers though, and have a bunch of Italian Roasting peppers planted.

Chicken and andouille sausage gumbo, it was dinner and supper today.

Okra?

No okra, just the holy trinity (onion, bell pepper and celery)

Amen.

(Though I do like the okra.)

Okra, tell me how to fix okra, it has a slimy taste to me. Am I doing it wrong?

If you don't like the slime, best thing is to cornmeal coat and deep fry. The slime becomes flavor, but get the little young ones or you'll be chewing string.

I love okra in all forms, pickles, gumbo, fried, dried....

Venison, red, green and black pepper, stir fry, with white rice.

I too love okra, I just generally don't put it in gumbo.

I use hot, pickled okra in martinis

Amen.

There was a place in Athens, OH that put them in Bloody Mary-s.

Pickled Okra is the bomb. I put Okra in Gumbo too.
A gal I knew would put a layer of chopped Okra on a pot of Pinto's for the last hour. It made for some great beans.

My Dad loved the stuff. I was always a take it or leave it person. May just have to try some again to see if my tastes have changed. Heck, I used to not like horseradish and beets when I was younger. Boy, has that ever changed.

Stewed tomatoes and okra over a plate of rice with a big piece of cracklin cornbread.

The plan here , is to take Mrs wabigoon, and the entire family "out", for her birthday to the local fire department's fund raiser dinner. Our son is on the team, and is working it. I'm wondering if I can get the firemen, and firewomen, to sing the birthday song in helmets.

Stick it on a wet bamboo skewer, salt and pepper, and grill it over coals. That simple, that good.

Slugburgers tonight

Back from the fireman's feed. It was good. The wife did not want the embarrassment of the crew singing.

Ribeyes, Strips, baked spuds, all on the Weber and a salad for Fathers Day dinner.

All cooked and prepared by yours truly!!

Well, let's see;

Friday night;

Hot Italian sausages in hoagie rolls with onions & mustard.

Saturday nights dinner was;

Panko crusted fresh walleye fillets, with homemade coleslaw & dressing.

Sunday lunch was fish tacos with the left overs.

Sunday nights dinner was;

Panko crusted walleye fillets, with homemade coleslaw & dressing, shared with our adult children for Fathers Day.

Worthy of a picture. That's fore sure.

Never tried gin and Campari. Got a bottle of Bombay that's never been cracked I keep for visiting pilgrims. Hmmmm.

I like Campari, it's a aperitif bitters as you may know. I got the Campari for Negronis and decided I don't really like Negronis. Americanos are OK...

But take a highball glass and fill ~3/4 full with crushed ice. Take a lime wedge and squeeze the juice over the ice. Then pour Campari about half way to taste. Fill to the top with soda water (I like Lemon Perrier) and stir. Decent spalsh of gin is optional, the gin makes it a bit more bitter which I prefer sometimes. It's a great aperitif, easy drinking on a hot day or late afternoon before dinner. It's just sweet enough without cutting out the bitterness, and the citrus makes it extra refreshing. The Campari and soda is where Campari shines for me.

Gonna have to give it a try.

Chile Relleno.......my first attempt.
Came out pretty good but I need to work on my breading and use a lot more cheese on the next batch.
The beans and rice are store bought but I did make the tomato sauce from the last bag in the freezer (gotta make room for this years crop).
The Cilantro's fresh from the garden. First time I've grown it, just like most things from the garden I'll never buy Cilantro from the store again.

500 degree pork loin tonight...

You good folks are eatin' well. The wife, and I, had a hot turkey sandwich, at the Harborage in Fort Frances, Ontario today.

Looks good, FG! I love those little buggers. Guess what I had for lunch yesterday at a new Mexican Mom & Pop I found on Yelp.

I've had a tough time growing cilantro because I tend to overwater it and it doesn't like that here. I do love the stuff, though. And will look for reasons to use it in recipes.

FG, the way these rellenos were done was to wrap the stuffed peppers in something like a crepe, more sauce and cheese over the top and roast in the oven. Darn good.

I really do need to pick one of those up. New Spanish market (competitor for Publix) is running them on special for $1.29/lb.

The recipe I used said to make the dip by whipping the egg whites and then add the yolks. They actually came out like their picture but the best I've had had a thicker breading.....kinda chicken fried for lack of a better description. I plan to look around the web for a better batter and try again.........soon!!!......because other than the batter they were great. Matter of fact I'm having the leftovers tonight......can't wait.

Last night the wife and kids were out so I got home from work, got out a venison round roast and got to cooking. Roast from this mature, rutting buck I guided on in January:

The rut doesn't ruin meat, this guy tastes great. One of my favorite recipes: Cut into cubes, browned in bacon fat and braised with onions/garlic in a brandy sauce for 90 minutes:

Had a glass of barrel-aged rum while I waited. My first foray into aged rum, excellent distilled spirit:

Finally done, served over basmati rice. Love braised game over rice:

Beef brisket, on the Weber Q, baked beans, Cole slaw in Wabigoon tonight. We are having friends in.

I don't know if it is kosher, I wrap foil over the center of the on burner grill, and keep the drippings from flaring up.

There folks have never eaten brisket, wish me luck.

I have a pot of pasta sauce on its third hour of simmering. We are having the neighbors over for cocktails and dinner.

Nasty 'ol chops here along with other fixins!!

Tonight is beer battered cod fillets and a hearty mixed greens salad with local "cherry" tomatoes that are just outstanding.

Pan seared scallops and corn on the cob.

On another note, what site are you using to post pics? PB has decided to commit suicide.

Shrimp spring rolls. Peanut sauce. and a little hot sauce.

Damn Mike, those scallops look awesome!

We did a reverse seared dry aged porterhouse on the Primo grill with pecan chunks. The Woman made a side of pureed cauliflower, rutabaga, and garlic....a great low carb sub for mashed taters. It was quite good.

Jeff

Thanks guys. It's certainly become one of our favorites.

Greg- I'm still using photobucket. Have not had a problem.....yet.

Wow. ib, I think you might be the only one.

No pix-ate it, but last night had boar sausage with Zatarin black beans and rice and salad. m

Crab cakes, prime rib, and a green salad.

Hey you got into my kitchen somehow !! Simple easy quick to whip up and mmm, mmmm good. Maybe a dash of hot sauce to compliment the beans and eggs ? Thanks for sharing, Sir.

I'll see what else I can work with !

Ed, you've got the sarcasm of a true Aussie !

First try at deep dish pizza on the grill. Turned out really good, but crust was overdone on the bottom. Should have set it on a pizza stone in addition to the heat deflector plates that I did use.

Boneless skinless chicken thighs sauteed in olive oil and garlic with Dizzy Pig Pineapple Head rub, s&p, corn on the cob, mashed red potatoes.

The Dizzy Pig Pineapple Head rub is some good stuff.

Wings with Lanes BBQ SPF 53 rub, brushed with Dino BBQ Wango Tango sauce and caesar salad.

No pics, but - fried eggplant fresh from the garden, fried green tomatoes and yukon gold potatoes (fresh from the neighbor's garden). Didn't need anything more but antacid

Fresh sockeye on the grill and a salad.

Oh boy, that sounds good. Loves me some pork and cabbage. Old KY raised gf from way back used to make a one pot meal with cabbage and pork chops. Man, was that good.

Thanks, Greg. t'was a treat out of the cast iron DO..

Tonight is a spinach salad. Spinach from my neighbors garden, mushrooms and red onions from the farmers market, bacon from a small local rancher/processor with a proper dressing using bacon fat, red wine vinegar, sugar, Dijon mustard with a little salt and pepper. I am done with photos.

Raspberry pie, with ice cream.

And now, I'm having the seeds for desert.

Polish Sausage, and some homemade Charro Beans

Fried Channel cat, sweet potato fries. Fresh sliced tomatoes from the garden and slaw.

Then smoked with pecan wood between 150-220 degrees for around 3 hours to and internal temp of about 140 degrees. Sliced thin for sandwiches, sautéed onions and mushrooms, Parmesan cheese and pepperocinis. Cowboy beans and macaroni salad for sides. Only took a picture of the meat:

Caprice salad with two colors of fresh basil from my garden, with a balsamic reduction, plus Scotch eggs cooked on the grill. Drink was 1800 peach margaritas. I wanted to have fresh french bread on the side, but I forgot to pick some up. The Cuervo made me forget about the bread quickly.

Ohhhhh my, that looks amazing ! It looks so succulent, and cooked just to perfection. Wonderful job

It was very good. I'm always amazed at how good it always turns out from a smoker. Even a round roast is tender and flavorful.

Last night was a rib steak with herb n peppers eggplant. A variation on a Martha Stewart recipe. EP halved, cross slashed, evoo and salt. Fried enough to brown. Slathered on a finely chopped cilantro, Serrano pepper, and parsley mix with evoo and turmeric. Baked at 375 till soft. Removed and topped with Greek yogurt mix d with lime juice and a dash of colomata olive brine. Added some Serrano coins and chopped craisins.

Sweet tea, chilled chicken noodle soup, cucumber & onion salad.

Refreshing on a hot day.

Eggplant parm, panko crusted pork cutlet, green beans and julienne onions done in bacon grease. Ice cold milk.

I made mashed potato pancakes with bacon bits and cheddar and topped with Mexican sour cream last night.

Delicious!!!!!

Had a friend give me some already lightly marinated elk tips. Quick seared those in some French butter with nothing added but a little salt when they hit the squealing hot cast iron pan. Delicious. With mashed potatoes and baked beans. So good the first night I did the same thing next night!

First attempt at a chicken galantine last night. Bone out a whole chicken from the inside so you are left with the skin and meat intact. Stuffed with elk sausage, pork sausage, chicken liver, minced apple, brandy, and Brie cheese. Wrap the sumbith up and tie/sticker it up:

Baked and ready to eat:

Was good but will try something different next time. Lot of potential here to be amazing.

I think you're on to something. Wonder how that'd be from the smoker.

Haha I was thinking the exact same thing!

We had tomato, cucumber, and green peas from the garden, a tossed salad with Italian dressing, and an exceptional piece of flat iron steak. Somehow the steak was both tender and delicious in spite of probably having been raised on a corn-based diet. I apologize where necessary for enjoying it.

John, someday, we need to feed you, and the lovely wife a steak. Yes, (blush), corn fed. The steak, not your wife!

Meanwhile, back at the ranch, BLT's, garden tomatoes at last.

Venison backstrap medallions rolled in plain bread crumbs and cooked in butter/EVOO.
Egg noodles
Topped with white wine Stroganoff sauce.

That looks like a fair bit of work. Good of you to do the experimenting for us.

I love hunting. One of my favorite things to hunt are coues whitetail deer in southern AZ. I foolishly shot a tiny buck on the second day this year. I should have just scratched my itchy trigger finger because I could have shot this buck probably every day of the hunt. I even went to a lot of trouble to get him. 425 yards is no chip shot. I shouldn't have but I did, and I knew I'd be eating well. That's me with the sweet chops and a delicious coues deer (buddy got his brother):
[Linked Image]

I have no regrets, especially on nights like tonight. He's a tasty sumbitch as these deer are prone to be. Had this round roast out for a couple days in the fridge. Splayed open, salt and pepper, seared in bacon fat and brushed with English mustard immediately after searing:
[Linked Image]

Stuffed with pepper jack and parmesan cheese flakes and a lobster tail:
[Linked Image]

Gotta have lemon juice when you cook a lobster tail, and when life gives you lemons... make a sidecar. Came in handy while I messed around baking the tail:
[Linked Image]

Tied that sucker up and put it in the smoker for about an hour. I wanted to keep drinking but I had mowing to do. The grass grows for about 2 months in Flagstaff but it grows fast when it's growing.
[Linked Image]

Sliced into medallions and went lazy with the sides since I was mowing. Arugula greens with ranch and some cherries. Not bad for a Wednesday:

OH MY !!

Grilled turkey tenderloins and a tomato pie.

Looks great, hunts!

huntinaz, man does that ever look good! I love cooking venison roasts in the smoker, scrumptious!

Love the ultimate surf n turf.

Finished off the last of last season's squirrel. Had a bag of little fryers set aside. Did an Italian recipe for rabbit. Brown the meat, stir up pretty much what you'd expect and bake for an hour at 375 w. some white wine and chicken stock.

[Linked Image]

Did some ribs.

Did some homemade ice cream too.

Looking good Ella, squirrel is my favorite rodent.

I also have a soft spot for homemade ice cream.

Homemade icecream takes dedication.

thin sliced prosciutto wrapped around chunks of Pecorino cheese, lightly heated. Honey and roasted walnuts on the side.. Slices of Honeydew melon. Mixed baby greens with my raspberry vinaigrette.

We picked up two of our son's and their squeezes at the Spokane airport and I had put away a tray of lasagna in the freezer to deal with a simple meal upon arrival. That with garlic bread with a spread from a small local restaurant and a salad of greens, reds and spinach, tomatoes, cukes and bellpeppers from the farmers market. Washed down with Hamm's beer, well what could be better?

Nothing much, Ed.

Haven't had Hamm's in ages.

Gazpacho, marinated steak, fried garden peppers stuffed w. cheese.
The soup turned out a weird color as I was just throwing in what was around. Tasted good though.

[Linked Image]

Trying to clean out the freezer a little. And had a backlog of eggs and peaches.
[Linked Image]

Maybe better suited for a colder evening--Baked Pancake—I’ve heard it called Dutch or German pancake.

• 6 eggs
• 1 cp buttermilk
• 1 cp flour
• 3 tblsp butter
• fruit

1. Preheat oven to 450F with the skillet inside
2. Fry fruit until lightly brown
3. Beat milk, flour, eggs into a thin creamy batter
4. Toss butter in skillet, spread around, and add batter and fruit
5. Bake 20ish minutes

Very cool !

Love the recycled corks too !!

That peach deal looks awesome. I love peaches.

Scrambled eggs with diced onion and spam on a hot corn tortilla, a bit of cheese, and a bunch of hot sauce.

Tres Jolie!

Citrus pork carnitas tonight. Made some rather heated pico de gallo (proper jalapenos for a change), sliced an avocado, tortillas and seasoned whole pinto beans. Washed it all down with a Kokanee beer.

that sounds great Ed. In Miami, I can get some righteous carnitas. Really like what you served with 'em. Not familiar with that beer though.

Taco truck Wednesday. Quesadilla de lingua and all the fresh fixings. Radish, whole green onions, guacamole sauce, habanero pickled red onions, cilantro, lime, red salsa.I

Six bucks and no mess to clean up.

Venison Stew. I had some loin from the 2016 harvest left, so I made Venison Stew tonight. Cut the meat into 1/2 dice, and dredged it in seasoned flour. Using a cast iron Dutch Oven, I browned Venison in lard. Stock was added, some red Currant jelly, taters, carrots, onions, garlic and seasoned with French Thyme. A wee bit of my Tabasco pepper sauce, and a number of hours of simmering. Meat was tender, veggies still with a bit of firmness, the liquid nicely flavored and thickened.
[Linked Image]

Guys, I need whip this photo thing. In NW Ontario tonight, an 'imported", Iowa chop, that is a chop cut thick, mashed turnip, and potato, gravy, with a side of, "imported" from Iowa, tomato slices.

The wife is planning on an apple pie, she bought lard today for the crust. Stay tuned.

On my way to post, I Sam's stew, wow.

West Virginia baked steak, summer squash with onions, mashed taters. Brown onion mushroom gravy over the meat and taters. Ice cold milk. Black cherry ice cream.

Tonight will be stuffed shells and hot Italian sausage.

I just finished a stuffed artichoke and it was darn good.

Bean salad and meatloaf. Nobody beats my meat........loaf.

Also ran about 15#'s of tuna through the smoker. Damn, tuna gets salty quick. Super tasty, but salty. Next batch I'll cut salt and time in the brine.

It'll make for a killer smoked fish dip.

New Mexico elk steaks... wild rice... and steamed broccoli tonight.

My biggest issue with Five Guys is they don't serve beer. Good fries and appreciate the peanuts though.

Straight from the garden.

Rosa Bianca eggplant, sliced and grilled with mozzarella cheese, served on a bun with grilled bell peppers and fresh tomatoes, and corn on the cob.

Dessert was plum pie, I think it tastes similar to what a cherry & rhubarb pie might. Actually it was 2 plum pies, one with sweeter plums and one with more flavorful plums but in a side by side test I can't tell the difference.

Saturday at camp, we did back ribs & a bacon & hot Italian sausage stuffed chicken in the charcoal smoker.

Sides of peaches n cream corn on the cob, Idaho style dressed taters & baked beans.

Sunday night (29th Anniversary) was hand cut rib eyes in the cast iron griddle, sautéed mushroom caps, same taters again & a Caesar salad with home made dressing (raw egg, anchovies, vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, dijon mustard, evoo, s&p etc.

Last night was chicken parm, egg noodles & a Caesar salad.

Glad to see you blend in a bit of beef in those meals Paul, I'd hate for you to grow gills, and fins!

French dip, cheesy potatoes, and the wife is working on that apple pie for tonight's supper.

Smothered chops from a couple pigs we got the last day of turkey season. Garden peas, tomatoes, radishes and sweet potato chips.

Good to get it done on a rainy weekend.

Looks good. We're down to the last couple packs of last year's deer. Freezer is more air than meat right now.

You people and your Clamato Caesers. My mom's side of the family is into that stuff. I dunno. I like a Bloody Mary, but.

Tritip, Santa Maria style again over mesquite with strawberry, walnut, spinach, feta, etc. Topped with spicy vinagarette..

I probably ate 2 lbs. Of meat....

I was up in Aberta last week waterfowling and had my first Caesar. Pretty good stuff. The gent who made them rimmed the glass with what tasted like Old Bay but was advertised as "made by two guys in Canada" so maybe not.

Also brought back 24 mallards and 6 Specks so the freezer is happy.

Diversity is good Allen, whether it be ducks, or drinks !

Homemade deerburger helper last night !

Corn dogs

Leftover soup, good enough.

Leftover spaghetti and meatballs.
I love leftovers....more times than not they taste better than the first day and you don't have to cook.

Charlie, I'd like to quote Jed Clammit on possum innards, and greens. "They is just as good the next day."

I think collard greens improve with an overnight in the fridge. Same with chili, a lot of soups, and cheap pizza.

I like leftovers for breakfast.

One of my favorites FG and something mom has made as long as I can remember. She would add a little curry for something a little extra. Great leftovers!

She would also use chukar and pheasant back in the day when I would raise hell in eastern Oregon.

My little brother came up for the weekend, shot a bunch of squirrels. My daughter shot her first one! Daughter's first squirrel (with my bro):
[Linked Image]

Went home and got to cooking. Braised the squirrel in a ceramic pot and then browned them in butter/bacon fat until crispy with mashed potatoes and gravy made from the drippings. One of my favorite meals of all time:

[Linked Image]

Did you batter or dredge the squirrel? Looks awesome. I love to see kids hunting small game.

Oh, gosh that looks good.

We are having taco soup tonight.

Originally Posted by Ella

Generally after they cook in a pot with salt, seasoned salt, pepper, cloves of garlic and bacon fat I let them cool a bit, dip them in egg and coat with a mixture of flour, Italian bread crumbs, pepper, salt, paprika and then brown in oil ( I use a mixture of butter, bacon fat and olive oil) until crispy. This is the method I like the best now. It also works to coat and brown them first and then bake but they aren't crispy then.

Shoot, you taught me something new about cooking squirrels. Thanks. I'm going to try that. Squirrel season on public land just opened, gamezone 2, SC. I'm going this weekend.

Cold cuts, and hash browns tonight. Exciting, eh?

Eenteresting.

Last night was pulled pork sandwiches, mrs scottf’s Cole slaw recipe, and pumpkin pie.

No pics. Take my word it was good!

Last night was roast chicken drumsticks, mashed potatoes, corn on the cob, blueberry muffin.

This thread always makes me hungry

Just off the combine, a small piece of leftover pork roast, and I cleaned up the cold creamed corn. Plumb tuckered out.

That sounds like slim pickings. Wish you could have been this way. What are you growing? I've not been in Ontario, but have family up in Winnipeg and in Brampton. Driving through Manitoba that's flat flat flat land.

Sausage and gravy, cornmeal cakes, fried cheese-stuffed peppers, baked sweet potatoes. Beer.

Awesome

Just back from Zimbabwe. I have not sorted photos yet but the waterbuck backstrap exceeded the cape buffalo backstrap though no complaints here with anything. The buffalo stroganoff was killer too.

Big can of Bush's beans and a whole package of cheap Frankfurters, sliced.

It was good!

Had a store bought dinner tonight.

Took the crew to town after we got done shipping.

I had a rib steak at the restaurant. It was not too bad actually.

Belated birthday dinner. Needed my daughter off work for the celebration. Made this. it was better than OK.

Raw broccoli and carrot slices with ranch dressing dip.

And a side of BD cake!

I believe it!

Grilled chicken thighs over mesquite, asparagus, and baked potato....

Twice baked potato loaded with diced ham and Sharp Cheddar and Corn Pudding.

Filling!!! I feel like a Tick on a Dog.

Rib steak, and hash browns.

I made stuffed antelope heart in the crock pot last night. Eating it for lunch now. It's really good. In the past I've only fried it with onion, like liver.

We enjoy deer heart quite a bit. We boil the piss out of a big pot of 5-7 of em, then slice it thin, batter and fry. Dip in a bit of yellow mustard....

Outstanding.

I never did boil heart.

Washed it really well in cold water and then did like you did. Slice, bread and fry.

Why do you boil it?

I could definitely eat that. Wishing I'd saved the heart off mine I shot a couple weeks ago. Another great fella I met in camp, APDDSN0864, told me he likes to pickle his with onions and pickling spice. Bet that's good, too.

Mallard schnitzel with mushrooms, egg noodles and asparagus. I filleted the breast meat off a couple mallard recently of Alberta, pounded it flat between a couple sheets of plastic wrap and then salt/pepper - egg wash and panko and pan fried. The rest you can figure out.

I wish Ida never seen this place. Rick needs to have a, "Eat less, excerzise more", section.

Italian meatloaf and garlic romano mashed potatoes.

Fried cabbage and sausage.

Washed it down with a Shiner Bock.

I have no imagination what so ever.

Nacho cheese Doritos, bean dip and meat sticks from the convenience store. Oh, and half a Pepsi.

Never can drink a whole bottle of pop.......I guess I get tired of it.

Training night at the fire department. I had to go in early so I missed dinner at home and we went late so missed any available food in town.

We were busy preparing for winter so we got in a little late.

Cut some chops off of a whole pork loin, can of green beans and fried potatoes and onions.

I cooked the potatoes in lard.

Greased the chop pan in lard too.

I can now see why folks cook with lard! The smell alone while the taters and onions were cooking was worth it.

Like standing at the order window at an old drive in.

Chinese take-out for 2, On my boss's credit card. He found out I covered an emergency call, tonight, on my birthday, and decided to make it up to me.

Salt and Pepper Shrimp

2 day old Doe tenderloins, garlic mashed spuds, roasted sweet tater & pan fried brussel sprouts in bacon fat.

So good, I forgot pictures.

Last night we had mule deer and whitetail tenderloins.. Potatoes, carrots and mushrooms!!! Most favored the mule deer over the whitetail for taste.. Less gamey they said.. I tried both.. Taste was maybe a bit different, but if some one as for the label of each, I couldn’t have done it.. I think most of it came from their poor experience whitetails in Mich. swamps.. It was excellent, but I still prefer beef..

I've had a pot of Red Beans with Andoullie and trinity simmering for about three hours now. I put a couple cups of chopped Okra in this batch. I haven't tried it in Red Beans but I like it in Pinto's and Gumbo so I thought I'd give it a try.

Just put the rice on so it won't be long.

For the game tonight tomato basil soup and a grilled cheese. Last night was a stuffed artichoke. All was very good.

I'm thinking steaks/tbones tonite 5.77 lb.....with fried taters n Onion's ...and 57 sauce of course...for my fried taters mostly.…my drug of choice 57' ...ya I know I' m paying for j Kerry's boat .....

It was really easy and was plenty tasty.

Take a 9x13 glass dish and put 4 or 5 thinly sliced potatoes in the bottom. Little salt and pepper. I like the yellow ones.

Next dice a couple small onions and soften them up a bit in some butter....little salt and pepper.

Brown about 5 or 6 chops...little salt and pepper......and throw them on top of the onions and potatoes.

Cover the whole mess with a cup of milk and a can of cream of mushroom soup....mixed up in a bowl.

Bake at 400 for 30 minutes covered. After thirty minutes put some grated sharp cheddar on top and bake for another 30 minutes.

Family liked it fine.

I had a pork loin in the fridge that I used for the chops. Thick cut about an inch or an inch and a quarter.

Cheaper than buying them pre cut.

I have tried the other types of 57.......It pains me greatly, but I like the Heinz stuff the best.

People dont know what they are missing if they have not tried their potatoes with some 57. Little cajun season first.

In MN they'd call that "Pork Chop Bake"........I'd eat it.

Im a sucker for a good casserole.

Sounds good!

Lots of casseroles up here on the Hi Line. If you dont have cream of Mushroom or Chicken......well, I dont even want to think about that.

We had mannicotti(sp?) last night. Wife used the recipe on the box of pasta. Was pretty good.

Ate the same thing & reused the old photograph !

Wife cooked broccoli beef......except with the rest of that pork loin.

Taco soup.

Did you ever build that cabbage soup you were talking about earlier?

Yes Jim, I did. It turned out well.

I make stuffed peppers all the time. I'll bet that's some good stuff. Need to make some with the antelope I have.

Anyone have a good dairy-free corncake recipe? A bit of butter in the recipe is ok.

Tonight was simple. Taco/Dorito bake. Crescent rolls layed out in 9/13 pan, Sprinkle with Cumin and taco seasoning. Sprikle with smashed up Doritos. Seasoned taco meat. Top with cheddar and more doritos. Bake about 20 minutes at 350. After 20 min, splash some salsa, peppers, olives, whatever else you want, more doritos and cheese. Back in the oven just long enough to melt cheese. Plate it up, throw some lettuce and taco sauce and ranch on top....

I will have to try the taco/dorito bake.

We had a nice prime rib dinner at the GN in Malta Montana tonight. We first went to Saco and picked up a bunch of local hot dogs and bacon. Then we went to the Hot Springs.

There are only two places in Montana that I will order the prime rib. The GN in Malta and the Bar S in Great Falls.

The 7up Ranch in Lincoln used to be first on the list....but it burned down. The Lamp Lighter in Butte is closed too.

All the other prime rib I have ordered has been either tough and flavorless or too damn fancy.

With the high at 29 and the low at 18 it was slow cooker ham hock and bean soup last night. It will be the same tonight.

Popcorn, it looks like popcorn.

Living large tonight.

Meat loaf with brown gravy, potato's and onions tossed in olive oil and Johnnys and then baked on a cast iron griddle , and green beans. I'm gonna try some of Jim's 57 sauce on the potato's.

BTW.....My meatloaf doesn't look anything like Bootsfishing's does.

I will have to post a recipe for Montana meatloaf one of these days.

Instead of gravy it has sort of a ketchup, brown sugar, mustard powder topping on it. Pretty derned good.

We had bear beans and pop tarts tonight.

Not at the same time....the pop tarts were for desert. My banana cream pie I bought was still frozen!

Yeah, store bought......but I love any and all banana cream pie.

Originally Posted by Jim_Conrad

I top mine with either Bacon or tomato sauce and then put the gravy on when I plate it..
There's usually some mashed potato's to go with the gravy too but tonight I tried something different.

BTW.....the H57 on potato's is pretty dam good....I'll definitely do that again.

Matzo ball soup tonight.

Feeling a bit Jewish I guess.

Was is good MM?

I have seen pictures of that soup.....looked sorta like dish water.

Lol. It’s just chicken soup with matzo balls. I like it.

Had a roasted chicken carcass from last week. Toss it in a pot with some water and simmer for a couple hours. Strain it and put the stock back on the stove on low. Cool the carcass and pick the meat.

Make and cook your matzo balls in the stock. (Directions on box of matzo meal)

When done, take out the balls and set aside.

Add carrot, celery, onion, salt, pepper, thyme, or whatever you like to the stock and simmer until it’s as soft as you like.

Finish with a big handful of chopped parsley and the chicken meat.

Put a ball or two in a bowl and ladle the hot soup over.

Just like that, ya Jewish.

I made a pie yesterday... Apple...5 different types of ta boot!... shredded it instead of slicing and added a touch of molasses ...good chit !

Saturday night & Monday night were venison liver n onions + garlic mashed taters !

First time with the deer liver & very good.

Sliced & soaked in buttermilk for 3 days, patted with paper towel to remove most moisture, seasoned flour coating & fried in bacon fat.

Thanks for the description MM.

There was a Jewish family in town many years ago. I guess the store stopped stocking Matzo meal after they left.

A family friend did not like Jews, so he started harassing them. Off to the Marines he went!

Paul, if you are gonna eat deer liver.....it sounds like you did about the best job a person could. Medium rare?

I cooked a hamburger steak and shrimp scampi last night.

Yep Jim, definitely !

It's when you overcook it, that it gets that strong taste & unpleasant pasty texture.

fixed some of the Antelope burger I ground last month. Pound of bacon to each 10 pounds of Antelope. It was outstanding.

I bet it was Sam !!

Num, nums !

We had chili dogs tonight.

Wife has been gone since Sunday. Daughter is staying with grandma.

Just me and the two Conrad boys tonight. They like chili dogs.

We had some sort of concoction that involved dark turkey meat left over from the fall dinner at church last Sunday, noodles, golden mushroom soup, carrots, celery, cheese, and potato chips on top accompanied by some cranberries that the wife cooked down with sugar - all very good.

Chicken Pot Pie

Last couple nights we broke out some venison.

Have to say it was the best venison I've had with the exception of tenderloins which are few and far between.

The wife isn't a fan so we get to put a little garlic salt on the venison which I think helps a lot. But these whole muscle steaks were juicy and tenderloin as well as being great light flavor.

The green mountain grill is the bomb for cooking these steaks.

ya done good there Dan.

Homemade deer burger helper !!

Delicious.

Pecan smoked elk roast last weekend. 225 degrees until internal temp was 145 and then took off and wrapped for 30 min.

[Linked Image]

Looks fantastic !

Made some antelope burger 5:1 with Appleton's Apple Smoked thick cut bacon. Took these 5 burgers over to the neighbors.

[Linked Image]

Getting hooked on antelope burgers. This is like the 4th one this week. Lunch today

Tonight i grilled a big huge ribeye from st. francis smokehouse (st, francisville louisiana) it's 1.5 inches thick and it weights 18oz, grilled at 410 degrees, when it hit 130 degrees I took it off. the wife is making a salad, buns in the oven.

need to get a imgur account so I can start posting pics, plus with deer season opening saturday I want to share some pics, like I used to.

I just had this thought, about what I posted for supper, when the kids leave and it just you and the old lady, supper changes... kinda sad, I like to feed people and I kinda cook good/OK, most people enjoy it and I miss that.

Gumbo of course.......hadn't made it in almost two months......I was going through withdrawals....

Rib steak, baked spuds, with trimmin's, garlic toast, salad.

Butter Beans cooked with Salt Pork and White Corn Bread'

I wanted to try White corn bread but the closest thing I could find to white corn meal was some Aunt Jemima white corn bread mix which was fantastic. I'm definitely a fan of white corn bread now.

The beans were good too. I usually make them with a Smoked Shank but this was a nice change of pace.

Hobo soup, cornbread, apple pie, ice cold milk.

Make soup and refrigerate for 2/3 days then warm and serve.

Can opener required.

My youngest turned 2 today.

He loves taco meat so we had tacos.

He did not want a shell, but the rest of us did.

I make home made taco shells out of corn meal, corn starch, eggs and milk.

Fry them in the cast iron with a little butter.

Dont know why we cant find white corn meal up here. I was thinking about it today as I was buying some yellow meal for my taco shells.

I did not even come up with the mix you mentioned.

I guess I will have to try a bigger town.

Been thinking about gumbo too. I had it one time and really liked it.

Could you point me towards a good recipe that you like?

Here's the one I use Jim.
The only thing I change is to add a 12oz bag of cut Okra the last hour and I use thighs instead of breasts. They cost less and I prefer the jusier dark met.

http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/chicken-and-sausage-gumbo-0

PS......cook the roux until it looks like chocolate and stir it constantly. It'll burn if you turn your back for even a second.

Perogies, bacon, onions topped with sour cream & green onions.

When the onions were caramelized I deglazed the bacon & onion pan with Fino sherry.

Wow, best onions evah !

leftover hamburgers, soaked/broiled in a dish w/french onion soup, brussels oven baked w/parmesan topping and a tossed salad.

This one is huge, divide it in 1/2 or 1/4's
Feel free to make your own Roux
I don't add the tomato sauce and Rotel, Thats a New Orleans thing
Also, you don't have to boil your meat, just start by browning your meat good and remove once browned
and start with your trinity (veggies) you just have to cook the meat longer to get tender.
One more thing, Andouille - you can use any good smoked sausage
Don't leave the Pork Tasso out

This makes a REAL big Gumbo - so you may want to divide the recipe in 1/2. also you can use Chicken, Hen, Guinea Hens, or Rabbit.

Duck, Andouille and Tasso Gumbo - For the Freezer

2 - 4-5# avg Ducklings or Mature Duck - skinned deboned and cut into bite sizes
4 LBS Andouille or Smoke Sausage – cut into bite sizes
3 LBS Pork Tasso – cut into bite sizes
10 QTS water
10 heaping Tablespoons Roux ( I use Savoie’s Dark Roux or make your own )
¾ cup cooking oil
4-5 Chopped onions (med size)
2-3 Chopped Bell pepper
1 Bunch Green Onions (Shallots) chopped
½ cup Parsley flakes
2 sticks Butter (Oleo)
3 - 8oz cans Contadina Tomato Sauce (optional)
1 - 10 oz can Rotel Diced Tomatoes (optional)

In a large pot (at least 12 quarts). Brown the boneless Ducks in cooking oil, after it is browned well, remove it from the pot, brown your Andouille next and remove from pot.

Add Butter, Bell Peppers, Onions and brown well.
Add Water and Roux, stir to dissolve the Roux, next add Tomato Sauce and Rotel, cook on med fire for 1.5 or 2 hours.

Add Duck, Andouille and Tasso - cook another 1-2 hours or until Duck is tender, then add Seasoning to Taste. I like Konrico Creole seasoning (or Tony’s)

Add Chopped Green Onions and Parsley – cook another 25 min – tasting for seasoning.

Freeze in small portions – thaw in microwave

Make a Good Potato Salad to go with this.

I LOVE duck gumbo

Tonight I pan fried quail and made gravy from the drippings and put over rice.

Looks good Scott!

I had Pizza

Hurry up chili for one, it looked like chili.

Spaghetti with meat sauce. Cooked it half the day. Ground Antelope meat, onions, garlic and other stuff. Pretty good.

Pard had me over tonight for soup.

When we butcher our chickens, I save the gizzards for him. No one in the house wants anything to do with them but me, so I pass them on.

He made chicken soup and added some cut chicken thighs as well. I brought him a big Ziploc bag of my beef, barley, vegetable soup.

Damn ! Just damn !

Antelope tacos a couple nights ago.

[Linked Image]

Last night was "dairy less", roasted butternut squash soup.

Roasting the squash & onion, certainly enhanced the flavour !

Didn't miss the cream or sour cream.

Deer balls !

What ?

Deer burger meat balls, home made marinara sauce & pasta.

They are cheap Paul, just under a buck.

Took me a second.....

Honestly, me too Jim !

Whole front shoulder roast, or blade roast. Mule Deer. nothing fancy, cut off the shank, cut through the leg bone with a saw to allow the goodness to coeo ut while braising. 4 hours @300 and the bone falls right off.

[Linked Image]

That old joke, Jim, Paul? I though I'd get booed of the forum.

I finally got around to trying my hand at making Perogie's today.

They came out "OK" and looked like the pictures I've seen but I don't think I'll make em again.

They kinda remind me of those pie dough dumplings some people like to ruin a pot of Chicken with.

The Kelbasa I made with them was good though.

Rich, tasty deer stew & crusty bread !

Chili verde has just started simmering.

[Linked Image]

Fries, sausages, deer tenderloin, deer heart, green beans with onion and bacon.

Cooked for 10.

Deer chili. Took a deer shoulder and put it in the crock pot all day then pulled the meat off the bone and shredded. Used Bart's chili recipe with the shredded deer meat.

Home made kielbasa Charlie?

I have 40 pounds of deer trim I need to do something with.

Thankful.

The kids are going to be here tomorrow and we will have the turkey meal on Saturday with them and the wife's sister and her family. Tonight I made a small-end rib roast for the wife and myself. Took it out and tented it when the thermometer hit 144 - came out with a perfect progression of doneness from out to in. Wife came up with mashed potatoes, scalloped corn, and excellent gravy.

Chicken fried Elk cutlets and taters fried in hawg lard seasoned with bacon drippins!

That sure looks good Bob. ooops, I should, !!!!!!!!!!!

Store bought....

I'd love to try some homemade.....I love Kelbasa....

I've got a pot of Barts Chili on right now. It's about half way. Gonna serve it on rice.

Candles, tablecloth, salad, hash browns, rib steak, mine rare, Mrs wabigoon's well done.

Done.

Leftovers tonight...

Just finished off a bowl of beans and rice, garlic shrimp, and a simple green salad.

This batch of beans is the best I’ve ever made. Maybe even had. Pretty sure it was the homemade bacon that set them off.

I bet it was the bacon. What kind of beans?

Pintos.

Fried up about a half pound of bacon and used some of the drippings to cook a diced onion and some celery. A bit of garlic, some salt and pepper, a bay leaf, and a bit of Cajun seasoning before dumping in the beans, 2qts of chk stock, and the bacon.

Simmered for a few hours.

Mmmmm...I love all beans....especially Pinto's. I make em with Bacon or a Smoked Shank when I can get one.

Never tried home made bacon but something tells me it's better than store bought.

Smoked shanks are my favorite way to go. Don't know what's happening, but a couple of my go-to stores haven't had them in weeks.

Yea....they're sketchy around here too. I usually buy a few when I find em.

Pan fried pork chops, fried spuds and green beans.

One of my favorite meals!

A person can do lots of fancy things to a pork chop........none of which are as good as simply pan frying one.

Leftover turkey & gravy, spooned over top of fresh baked biscuits! One of my favorite Thanksgiving leftover meals.

Bowhunr's ribeye recipe, zucchini with Appleton's thick sliced apple smoked bacon and mushrooms, sweet potato.

Still cooking.

Used the left overs from a nice mutton roast we had the other day.

I will let you know.

Sauteed onions and peppers and crab cakes...

I’m still hurting from last night.

Lobster, filet, bone in ribeye, scallops, crab cakes, prawns........all the fixings as well. Scalloped potatoes, Brussels sprouts, asparagus, corn, zucchini, Caesar salad. Finished with a wedge of key lime pie.

Washed down with way too much wine and scotch.

And of course the best part...........on somebody else’s dime, cause no way I coulda footed that bill. Lol.

Very unimpressive....

It was horrible.

Sorry you had to have it “given” to you.... hardly worth bragging about....

I’m not. It was great! I wouldn’t spend that kind of money on a meal even if I could. I wouldn’t/couldn’t eat like that often, it’s really just ridiculous.

Not bragging, just sharing a pretty amazing meal. No reason to be [bleep] about it, unless that’s all you got?

Oh just saying... you like to run your gums too.. personally I wouldn’t brag about a free meal, but that’s coming from a lewis county that grew up on Blacktail buck meat and raised his kids on same, all while being younger than you by a margin... hint

Everything is good now as I’ve the luxery of dinning on some fairly fine dishes around the world... hint

Though sucking ass isn’t included, nor bragging about a “free” meal... down here that would be well I’m sure you know the word, though I’m sure you rub elbows with em frequently.. haha

Btw I had turkey today, via treager, by yours truly and it was stellar.....

Lol. I might run my gums on occasion.

Well, you may be too proud to attend a company Christmas party, but I ain’t. It’d of been rude not to show. Not sure how it’d be construed as bragging.

Stoked you get to travel the world eating fine dishes. Sounds great. Really.

The rest of your post didn’t make a whole lot of sense. Rub elbows with who? Eating deer meat precludes you from attending Christmas parties? How old you think I am? Sucking ass? Hint?

Lol! You’re all over the place man!

Good man!

I was beginning to think I was the only one!

I had to google Hogget.....learn something new every day.

I've never eaten Mutton (or Hogget) but I'm a pretty big fan of Roast Leg Of Lamb.

A grass finished mutton or hogget is milder flavored than a grain finished lamb....to my tastes anyway.

Late night comfort food, biscuits and gravy washed down with some cold apple pie 'shine to help me sleep.

Originally Posted by Jim_Conrad

The piece I read agrees with you.

I always look for American lamb over the imported meat from NZ/AUS. Just seems more mild and tender. Couldn't tell you which is fed what or how old.

Safeway used to always have those little lamb loin chops on sale in the "Managers Special" section of the meat case. IE, the stuff about to go past its sell by date. I'd buy all I could at 30 to 50% off! Haven't seen them in a bit though.

Little garlic and herbs pasted up with olive oil, salt and pepper, on the grill.....Love those things!

Good man!

I was beginning to think I was the only one!

Probably 'cause I grew up in Australia, with friends whose parents owned a sheep station !

All they ever ate, were the older animals - Too much money in the lambs, to eat them, themselves !

I've never eaten Mutton (or Hogget) but I'm a pretty big fan of Roast Leg Of Lamb.

Similar, just a little "meatier" flavour, & lends itself better to low & slow cooking.

Delicious.

Beer braised venison/jalapeno/cheddar smokies (brats) & onions in fresh baguette, with a slice of havarti cheese & a good wack of whole grain dijon mustard.

Rounded out with a Guinness stout !

Drinking temp was 12*C (55*F), in case MathMan was wondering !

Sounds very good!

We had home raised rib steaks tonight. Pan fried in cast iron.

A person could do a lot worse.

I like that stuff.

I don't like it as much as I used too but I'll still eat it.

I had some Gumbo I pulled out of the freezer and rice for dinner.....I swear...that chit gets better with age cept unlike wine or bourbon....it don't care what temperature you age it at.

Never knew that about gumbo.

Took some home from a party at the bar one night....ate on it for a week and it never tasted bad!

I did read where real Hungarian Goulash gets better the next few days.

I would like to make that some time. I got a big can of Hungarian paprika so I would be ready someday.

I think most soups/stews/ chili/ etc are better the second or third night.

That's a good thing though because I'm just feeding me and it's hard to make a pot of anything for one so I pretty much live on left overs.

Well, I just printed off your gumbo recipe..........I will have a crack at it.

Deer backstrap, scallops & shallot champagne sauce !

Glass of Pinot !

Oh, mercy!

I think you'll like it.

I prefer dark meat so I use thighs instead of breasts....also....since you're feeding youngsters you might want to start with one teaspoon of Cajun seasoning.....you can always spice it up a little more at the table with some hot sauce.

PS.....it's even more better if you throw in some frozen cut Okra about half way.

I have been thinking about this recipe for a while.....and Viola!....I noticed that the store has a bag of frozen cut okra for sale!

I have no idea what a frozen cut okra is......but I will pick up a bag today.

Thanks for the tips.

Okra is something used to mess up gumbo, even though gumbo is some African word for okra.

I have never seen an Okra in person. The Hutterites up here dont grow it!

You are welcome to my share of okra Jim.

Don't listen to Mathman........Steelhead told me that he's a Yankee.

Okra thickens gumbo in the same manner as a substantial addition of snot to the dish.

Ain't too many Yankees who have always lived south of I-20 and for the last 47 years south of I-10.

For a guy that's so level headed when it comes to Bourbon you sure don't know much about Cajun cooking.

Okra isn't slimy when cooked in Gumbo or a pot of beans.

Okra is more prevalent in Creole, rather than Cajun, gumbo. The Creole style gets tomato involved too.

Update: As I type this I'm enjoying a delicious, okra free, tomato free bowl of the Cajun style chicken, andouille and tasso gumbo I made last night. I'm so glad the office has a kitchen area.

Tonight it's Sausage stew with Zucchini and Ancini de Pepe pasta. And a big ol piece of Texas Toast.

Delicious and super easy to make.

I cut this recipe in half.....makes about four servings.

http://allrecipes.com/recipe/24036/tims-sausage-stew/

Boiled sausages and a box of macaroni and cheese.

We had baked pork chops with sides of sweet corn and spinach.

Smothered pork chops....again. I love ‘em. So easy, but it’s fun playin’ with the gravy. Little rosemary in this one, beef stock in that one, heavy pepper, over load of garlic, some mustard......it’s all good.

Made a quick green bean casserole to go with.

Ham and beans, biscuits, cornbread. Apple pie 'shine to help me sleep.

Whole chicken on the BBQ grill, marinated in Mexican spices. Refried beans. corn tortillas, roasted jalapeños and a cool drink.

MM, any chance of getting a quick synopsis of your method on smothered pork chops? Love me some pork chops and some smothered chops sound out of this world.

Boiled sausages with potatoes, carrot and onion.

Jackrabbit stew Tuesday night and deep fried chukar Wednesday night. Both turned out awesome.

What kind of sausage are you boiling Jim?

And when you say "boiled" are you simply boiling them or are you cooking them with the vegetables.

I googled boiled sausage but all the recipes were like stews.

32 20-

I season the chops with salt and pepper, sometimes I’ll dust them with a bit of flour.

Heat a bit of oil and butter in the fry pan, maybe a tsp or so, and add the chops. I like it pretty hot. You want to brown them on both sides, about a minute or two per.

Take your chops out and set aside. Add a couple tbsp of butter to the pan and a large sliced onion. A couple onions never hurts. I really like onions. Lol. Turn the heat down and cook the onions slowly until they are nice and soft, getting a bit carmelized. Add a couple tbsp of flour, mix in well and cook a few minutes. Add chicken or beef stock to pan and whisk while it comes up to a simmer. You can add more stock to thin, reduce, or even a bit of starch slurry to thicken. Put the chops back in to finish cooking them.

When you add the stock, you can also add whatever ya like. A bit of good mustard is delicious, some 1/2 &1/2 or herbs, maybe throw in a bunch of garlic with the onions if you like garlic. Just taste as you go and season to your liking.

Basically just pan fried pork chops with a pan gravy. It’s great with potatoes or rice.

Curious about 5he boiled sausages as well?

I take two or three pounds of polish sausages and boil them with the carrots, potatoes and onions.

Little salt and pepper and some cabbage if you have it. We had no cabbages tonight!

I dont cut up the sausages because you serve them whole.

You just scoop out what you want with a slotted spoon, leaving the liquid. I just mash the spuds on my plate, and pile up the carrots and onions. Eat the onion with the sausage and some Polish mustard.

I usually use those horse shoe looking sausages. They are cheap at times and the kids like them.

I had an aunt, Emma, who often said "all good receipes start with an onion".

She was pretty much right.

An onion, and a pinch of salt. Agree with your aunt Emma

I remember my grandmother would peel and onion and eat it like an apple.

She loved onions!

Outstanding! Thanks MM! Going to give it a try this weekend with a healthy inclusion of onions.

I do 'em different to Jim.

When we do them, I start with olive & butter & sauté the pile of onions (sometimes I add a couple of tablespoons of whole grain mustard at this point), with S&P, until soft & just starting to colour, at this point add in your sausages/Brats & turn up heat, add 3/4 can (tall boy) of beer of your choice. Boil until almost no liquid left, turn sausages, add extra beer & reduce again.

Cut fresh baguette to sausage lengths, insert sliced Havarti cheese, onions, sausage, more onions, spoon on Dijon mustard & eat !!!

Some folks have access to baguettes, Havarti cheese and Dijon mustard.

Other can only get Wonder bread, Velveeta and Frenches!

You method does sound good though!

Dude, I'm in the middle of no-where too.

Just ask Richard.

Gotta shop smart when ya'll head to the big smoke !

I tried my hand at Scalloped Potato's tonight. They turned out pretty good.

I used this recipe cept I left out the bell pepper and threw in a couple hand fulls of frozen green beans.

http://www.geniuskitchen.com/recipe/scalloped-potatoes-and-ham-5194?ftab=reviews#activity-feed

PAUL!, you are on cloud nine. Well make that cloud four, and a half.

Brown butter scallops and pasta puttanesca.

Got a butterflied leg of lamb, smoked for a couple hours, cranked up finishing now

Reverse seared a pair of tri tips on the new MAK pellet pooper. Turned out pretty well. Cooked low until 115F, and pulled it until the grill was up to full tilt for a sear of a few minutes per side. Started 20 minute rest at 130F. Wife's garlic rosemary smashed new potatoes really rocked. I'm stuffed!

Jeff

Gumbo from the recipe Charlie gave me.

Everyone liked it. Busted out a new bottle of Crystal hot sauce for the occasion.

It did thicken up before we ate it.

That's pretty much what it should look like Jim.....I put a lot more Trinity than the recipe calls for in it though.

Did you serve it on rice?

Yes we did.

We have this fancy rice cooker that will cook 4 cups of rice. Everyone had seconds, well, except for Daniel Boy.....he is 2 and had been grazing all afternoon!

The relatively small amount of trinity did surprise me.

Do you cook it all with the roux or do you add more later?

That roux is damn dangerous stuff. Got two big blisters on my finger from some careless spoon work.

I just went back and looked at that recipe again....like all recipe's it's just a good place to start...
I've changed a few things over the years.....first I simplified things by cooking the chicken in my little toaster oven ahead of time and letting it cool enough to get it off the bones (I like thighs better than breasts...not that it matters).
Then I cook everything in the same pot......I start by browning the sausage a little (not too much) and then making the roux.....add the Trinity for about five minutes and then the liquid and spices ......then add the chicken, sausage, and okra the last hour.....

Oh....and reduce the broth to 4-5 cups...eight cups is way to much....I like it thick and you can always add more broth.

Got it.

I will make some notes.

Put a scorch on some scallops again. Salad on the side.

[Linked Image]

Doood, that looks good!

Thanks. Costco scallops. It's become a fave.
And, it's Art's fault.

Fish 'n' chips !

Seasoned, pan fried walleye fillets, in lemon thyme butter & a little olive oil.

Sides of chips(fries) & green salad with grape tomatoes & homemade dressing.

Now that hunting is done, we finally have enough ice, to get to fishin' !

Boy I bet that was good....

So good, we had it again last night !!

No grape tomatoes left, so chunked up some romas !

[Linked Image]

Wife bought a little local cook book from the town to the east.

I like those kinds of books, fun to read.

Tonight we had baked meatballs with bbq sauce and corn casserole.

The meatballs and homemade sauce was very good......the corn casserole was excellent!

We eat all our meals together as a family, and the kids take turns saying grace at supper time. I dont participate in the saying of grace, but I make sure they dont forget to say it!

Life aint bad!

Escalloped Cabbage

Someone (LD maybe) posted this tasty recipe but I changed it up a little by layering some onions and smoked sausage under the cabbage. I also mix some creole seasoning in the sauce instead of chopped Jalapeno's.
Takes me about four days to eat a batch but I like it so much I don't mind eating leftovers.

That looks good Charlie. Good cookin', and a nice photo.

A T-bone, and hashbrowns tonight.

Chile rellanos, refried beans and spanish rice. yummy

Kids had left over meat balls, wife had left over gumbo and I had a fancy chicken bacon wrap deal I bought from town.

We ate dinner in the big town to the west today. I ordered nachos and this wrap thing.

Everything was huge.....brought the wrap home and ate it for supper.

Thats right, Nalivka's Original Pizza Kitchen! I do like the pizza there.

Good sandwiches too.

IB, good looking scallops, sir.

I am going to try that cabbage Charlie.

Pretty simple tonight.

Went to the big grocery store over west today with a friend so he could pick up a prime rib.

They had a cheap pork roast that had been duded up with prime rib seasoning.

That, plus some green beans and some left over Calico beans was supper.

Thanks!

Haha never been there! Come on November... grin

Deer Chilli, with loads of beans !!!

Pot of pintos with big meaty chunks of sowbelly!!! Damn it was all good!!!

And be even better tomorrow!!

I pulled some Red Beans with Andoulie and Okra out of the freezer.
I'll make some rice to go with em.
This is the second half of the batch I experimented with Okra in it. It was my best batch to date.
Can't wait until dinner time rolls around.

Sloppy Joes and I sliced some spuds to try homemade french fries in the oven.

Twerent too bad!!

Soft-shell tacos - lettuce, tomatoes with chilis, black olives, shredded cheese, sour cream, seasoned burger, re"fired" beans, some chips. I am sure that the "unauthenticity" of the whole deal would be offensive to my betters, but it sure tasted good.

The left over prime roast from last night. We had a gift certificate to burn before the place closes.

Chunk of deer backstrap in the toaster over at work. (We're not allowed to have a real over per the boss...) 20 min at highest setting (450???), then 25 more at 200. Came out awesome. Just seasoned up with salt, pepper, little Paprika (it's what we had in the cupboard). Nuked some instant rice with butter and hot sauce in it.

Pan fried salmon, instant potatoes and green beans.

Fall off the bone bbq pork ribs out of the Instant Pot, with baked Yukon gold potatoes. Not too shabby for ten minutes of prep and an hours wait time.

Hickory smoked pulled pork on the Green Mountain Davey Crocket smoker.

Ham and bean soup last night. Chili verde tonight.

Ground elk Shepherds Pie....

One of my favorites...

Waffles!!!!!

Homemade tamales. YUM YUM

Braised pork short ribs.

Sort of a homemade BBQ sauce.

Tuscan Chicken Mac & Cheese.

I used this recipe...

https://cafedelites.com/tuscan-chicken-mac-and-cheese/

I had never ate sun dried tomato's or even cooked fresh spinach before but I gotta say....it's pretty dam good.
Kind of a pain in the ass to make because you have to baby sit it but I killed the time with a Black Butte Porter.

PS.....I cheated and cooked the chicken in the oven.

[Linked Image]

One thing about this gang, we eat well. Perhaps,--too well.

Boy, that the truth Richard!

Wife put together pork and broccoli. Recipe calls for beef, but I like it better with pork.

Served over spghetti noodles. Soy sauce and sriracha.

Tonight was elk Salisbury Steak....

Goodness it was good...

Found a smaller than average brisket at 7 1/2 lbs so not an overnight event but still took 8 hours to get to 205 degrees. Rubbed with my normal rub.

3 tablespoons ancho chile powder
2 tablespoons kosher salt
1 tablespoon allspice, ground
1 tablespoon celery seeds
1 tablespoon coriander seeds, ground
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1 tablespoon mustard seeds, ground
1 tablespoon dried oregano
1 tablespoon smoked Spanish paprika
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper

Turned our very well. Usually I pull it off at 195 but waiting a bit was a good idea.

[Linked Image]

Nice brisket, pugs! I love celery seed. Under utilized in my opinion.

Put a tenderloin roast in the oven a bit ago. 225 until it hits 125 or so, pull, then baste in thyme and garlic butter before it goes under the broiler to brown up.

Hope it don’t suck.

Doesnt sound like its gonna suck!

We had a left over night tonight.

Chicken fried steak, pork and broccoli noodles, braised pork ribs, fried potatoes and fried mashed potatoes.

Got most of it cleaned up.

Making room for tomorrow night and Christmas day leftovers.

That does look great, Pugs.
I’ve read some bbq forums where guys argue 201, 202, and 203. So.......

think ill make some tomorrow

Tonight was my take on shrimp & "grits", with an Alaskan spin. The shrimp were from a coworker who shrimps in Southeast with his dad. Sautéed with butter and oil and blackened seasoning. The "grits" are stone ground barley from Delta Junction, AK with some white cheddar mixed in. In the middle is fire roasted red bell pepper, garlic, and green onion. Garnished with Italian parsley(I'll use cilantro next time). Deglazed the cast iron skillet with some sauvignon blanc, and a little heavy cream for a pan sauce. For a yankee, I'd say it turned out pretty good. Had this dish for the first time last year at Gumbeaux's Restaurant in Douglasville, GA, and was hooked; have wanted to try making it at home ever since. For anyone in the Atlanta area, Gumbeaux's is off the charts!

A big debate with my co-workers as well. I've always been a take it off at 195 to rest/rise but I have to admit the 205 turned out better. I was only smoking at 225 so I didn't get a big rise. Only up to about 208.

We had hamburger stuffed bread and smashed brussels sprouts.

Broccoli Chicken Devan

Easy to make....delicious...and I get about four meals out of a batch. It's one of my favorites.

I don't know about that.....four ingredients and stick it in the oven....eat leftovers for a few days....repeat.
Thankfully the internet's full of one pot simple meals.

Hope I never need them.. I have a great cook and would be lost with out her.. But I still respect your ability to cook, trap and skin the wiley bobcat... Enjoy your stuff..

Heck yeah!

I am a pretty fair cook, so is my wife. We both like cooking.

Those screwball kids of mine will damn well know how to cook and read a recipe when they leave my house.

If you can feed yourself well, there aint a lot someone can do to you.

We are working our way through a local cookbook right now.

Been lots of fun so far.

But I agree with Charlie, the internet is a boon for a fellow like me out here in the sticks. Used to be if a recipe was not in your grandmothers cook book it might as well not exist.

Just had a spam and egg sandwich and a slice of Sour Cream Raisin pie.

Never had that kind of pie before.

It was pretty good.

Black Angus burgers along with brown beans and diced onion.

Tamales!

Elk cheeseburgers with guacamole and home fries..

Beef cheeseburgers and frozen fries.

Pan fried some halibut tonight in coconut oil. egg and panko crust, seasoned with Prudhommes Seafood magic. salad and buttered new potatoes.

At the risk of repeating myself......bastard.....

Made up a batch of soup from the rack off a bone in prime rib.

Since it was already browned from roasting, I just split it in half and tossed it in a pot with a chunked up carrot, stick o celery, and an onion. A bay leaf, some peppercorn and thyme added them covered with water and simmered for about 5 hours.

Strained the broth, picked the meat and tossed the bones, diced up another onion, more celery and carrot, and a bunch of de-stemmed collards along with some [bleep] mushrooms and a parsnip.

Veg got a saute in a big pot, dumped the strained stock back in, a couple cups of pearled barley, let simmer for an hour then finished with the picked meat and more thyme, salt and pepper.

I love making soup. Love to eat it too!

Yep, just finished making turkey n wild rice soup & ham bone & pea soup.

Can't decide which to freeze !!

Must be soup season.
I just went to town and bought the makings for some Beef Barley and a pot of Cheesy potato with bacon.
I'll make the Beef Barley first, freeze half, and then make the Potato when that runs out.
Bought a loaf of Texas toast so I'd have something to sop it up with.

Chicken Pesto Pasta
White wine

Cut 2 chicken breasts in 1/4 - 1/2 inch strips 90 degrees (perpendicular) to the grain of the meat

Slice 1/2 cup each red, yellow , orange bell pepper in 1/4" slices

Saute chicken until it starts to brown (could use shrimp or scallops) and is thoroughly cooked.

Add in peppers and steam slightly, very slightly to maintain crispness and color.

Add 1/4 - 1/3 cup pesto

Stir and mix

Add in pasta toss/mix thoroughly again

Plate and top with shaved Italian cheeses

Cook 2-4 portions of spaghetti, linguine, or fettuccine (your choice)

Time the cooking to add in freshly drained and hot as the other ingredients are ready

Chilled medium dry white wine (Pinot Grigio) of your choice

three pounds of flank steak, seasoned and cooked over pecan and oak coals. Served with my chimmichuri sauce, a green salad, and green beans cooked with onions and sausage.

One of the best frozen pizzas I have ever had as it was just my wife and I tonight after the kid rush. Out of a shop in Austin. Remarkable.

Beef Barley Soup......my best batch yet.

Antelope roast in the instantpot....some carrots, onions and garlic with red wine. It came out more tender than I would have ever expected.

Potato Soup and Texas Toast.....

Biscuits would have been better but I was out. The soup was excellent though.

Double Quarter Pounder with cheese
10pc McNugget
Large Fry
Large Sprite

Minus 6 outside and snow. Chicken rice soup and sandwiches. The old standby .

It was the birthday dinner for my daughter tonight.

We had strip steaks and garlic shrimps. Green beans and mashed potatoes.

Pavlova for desert.

Chineese takeout, wife and daughters are going right now.

Chicken and broccoli for the ladies, Mongolian beef, and shrimp fried rice for me.

Happy birthday Miss Conrad.

Tuscan Zuppa

Simple enough and a complete meal
Italian sausage or Kielbasa ( I used Kielbasa)
onion
garlic
red pepper
kale
chicken broth
diced potato

Should have had some hard crust dinner rolls to go along with it, but didn't.
Leftovers tonight and the rolls were there

Wild Turkey Parmesan

Looks good, Dan.

I can be perfectly full or over stuffed and yet when I come here I want to try something that is posted.

Stuffed Pork tenderloin. Butterflied the tenderloin by thirds. Pounded it with the mallet until it was thin. Stuffed it with fresh Spinach, wilted and mixed with dried plums, pine nuts, Garlic and olive oil.
Rolled it up, tied it off with twine, topped it with bacon strips, and baked it at 390F for 45 minutes.
Served with egg noodles in home made Alfredo sauce. Had the kids over for dinner. They liked it.

Looks good everyone.

We had a Sunday roast.

Beef roast from our beef with roasted parsnips, beets, carrots, onions, potatoes and yams.

Western Family iced oatmeal cookies for desert.

Potato and Sausage bake with extra Tony's seasoning.

I used more potato's than the recipe called for but I had some that I needed to use.

I guess we all know what I'll be eating for the next few days. Tastes good though so I don't care.

What is this Tony's seasoning you speak of?

Cajun seasoning. I put it on everything.

https://www.tonychachere.com/

Last night was spent wrapping up the Dallas Safari Club show with my youngest son Tony. Dinner at Bob's Steak and Chop House, he a dry aged bone in rib eye and me a Wagyu tenderloin. We shared creamed spinach, hash browns and mushrooms. It was killer.

Dinner for tomorrow in the new replacement Crock Pot along with apple pie and ice cold milk.

http://www.bhg.com/recipe/meat/sauerkraut-and-pork-shoulder-roast/

Deer steaks, garlic mashed potatoes and green beans.

I cooked the steaks in a iron pan with a little olive oil to sear them.

Then crushed some garlic cloves and tossed em in with some butter.

Was pretty good.

Over cooked the deer....but I have not cooked deer for a long time.

Lookin' good. Bookmarked

I used more potato's than the recipe called for but I had some that I needed to use.

I guess we all know what I'll be eating for the next few days. Tastes good though so I don't care.

Needed less potato's and more onions and carrots but it was still dam good.

I'll make those corrections next time.

We had leftover mashed potatoes and Mac and cheese.

Cleaned up a cabbage that was getting old.....been cutting some off of it now and again for three months.

Cut some chops off a whole pork loin and fried them. My favorite way to eat chops.

Made some room in the fridge.

Yeah. That'll work!

I made cheese and bean enchiladas with Spanish rice on the side.

My first try at Spanish rice.....it was "ok" but I've had better.
The enchiladas were killer though.

[Linked Image]

ETA.....I ended up with eight of em and I don't want to eat the same thing for the next seven days so I'm going to freeze some if I can figure out how but they won't fit in any of the containers I own. I'm thinking about trying to get a few in a 1 gallon zip lock without damaging them. Any other suggestions? Tin foil maybe?

Take a small sheet of tin foil, line with a small sheet of parchment paper. Wrap and freeze. The parchment will keep it from sticking and can be baked, so just take it from freezer, right back to oven.

The question I have is why there are 7 left. I woulda hammered down at least 3 of those things.

EZ Yam Chowder

Brown 1 lb of ground meat (I use turkey) in a little olive oil with some garlic. Season with salt, pepper, poultry seasoning (for the turkey).
Add a large can of condensed cream of mushroom soup and and stir in an equal amount of water.
Drain and add a large can of yams cut into bite size pieces.
When that is sufficiently heated add a couple ounces of shredded extra sharp cheddar plus a few tablespoons of grated Parmesan.

Serve when the cheese is thoroughly combined. Bon appetit!

LOL.....One + the rice was all I could get down. They're pretty big.

I don't have any parchiment paper but I'm going to the grocery store in a little while....I'll see if they have any.

I think I'll pick up some Zataran Spanish rice while I'm there. Mine didn't come out so well. The dogs are ok with it though.

I am not a very good Spanish rice mechanic. Zatarans is what I use.

Mom makes some great rice.....no recipe or anything.

We had another leftover extravaganza last night.

Strip steak, deer chops, blackened(sorta) tuna and mashed taters.

I cooked the beef and deer in butter.

The tuna was cooked to a medium rare in a little olive oil, but seasoned first with cajun seasoning.

They ate it up fine.

Go no further. Killer SR. I use a lot of it.Any decent sized store will have it.

Dan, care to tell us about the riced cauliflower?

Pan fried with some soy sauce green onions,white pepper and a bit of ginger

Thanks Dan, I'll have to try that.

That looks killer Charlie.

Maybe freeze then put in a ziplock? Then thaw out of the bag at the right time.

Gunna scorch some scallops again tonight.

Had pork noodles tonight.

Usually only have them for new years day, but we had a pork loin laying around so we used it up.

It was very good.

Had a store bought peach pie that was good too.

I suspect a peach pie made with fresh peaches would be out of this world good.....but we dont have peaches up here.

Mrs. Smith does a good job so we buy one of her pies occasionally.

No parchment paper at our little market but after refrigerating them all night I was able to cram four of em into a smaller casserole dish.and sealed it up as best I could with saran wrap and tin foil. I think they'll be ok for a couple of weeks.

We had calamari steaks pan fried in panko, and chicken fried steaks.

Green beens and potatoes.

First time for calamari streaks for us. Everyone liked them.

God damn jimmy, that’s some good grub!!!

Love calamari!

Down in Oregon today and ordered a plate. SOB’s fried the bejeezus out of it. Even more than shrimp, calamari needs a light touch on the heat.

Something about spearing one in Hawaii, tenderizeing it in the rocks, and having momma cook it up in the condo, good stuff....

I was in a cooking mood today so smoked a rack of ribs too

Chili dogs.

Moose tacos.. I would take beef anyday, but that is what the lady got out of the freezer..

doves and dressing.

I heard that moose meat can be very, very good.

I would eat a cinder block if it had dressing on it.

Jim, do you like your cinder blacks rare, or well done? Beans with it?

Rare with beans please!

Jim, to me moose is the best of wild game.. This was a mature cow with no calf.. Axis deer is the best I have eaten, but after eating wild game steady for the last 50 years, I need a break...

When I hunted in NE BC in 2008 I had the opportunity to have a dinner sampling of tenderloin of moose, elk, mountain goat and Stone sheep. The latter won and I ain't a fan of lamb here. That said, most dinners were elk and moose and moose won hands down. A bit off topic but when the plane dropped me off for this horseback hunt the camp cook, the very young daughter of the Stone sheep guide, had been stomped by a horse when the departing hunter ran to get in the picture off his "set" camera. The horses startled and the young, little gal took the hit. They flew her out on my plane. About now it is dinner time without a camp cook and with guides worried, "how do we tend to the client". I offered up cooking (some here know I enjoy it) and asked where the spices and veggies were. Onions, garlic, bell pepper, chili powder, cayenne, pinto beans and an azzload of moose meat. We ate like kings that night.

Nobody could blame you for that WYO,

Roasted chicken tacos. Salsa molcajete, cotija, sour cream, lime and cilantro as toppings.

Beer braised deer (cheddar jalapeno) smokies & onions in sourdough rolls

Dan,

Willing to share a recipe for the Beans/Greens/Sausage?

Bacon Tater soup last night. Venison "Sheppard" Pie the night before, about the only way I can get my wife to eat regular veggies... She'll eat all the dark green veggies (Brussels, Spinach, Broccoli, Asparagus..) But to get her to eat corn, carrots, peas, etc takes an act of congress. I gave up and tell her she can cook herself dinner if she don't like it.

That would be the wife’s three cheese roasted poblano pepper relleno casserole. Sometimes she puts a layer of browned ground beef in it but it was meatless this time. Still one of my all time favorite dishes. Pic don’t include the ranchera sauce.

A slice of ham, with one slice of wheat bread, it looked like a ham sandwich.

Sort of like a Danish open faced sandwich. Very international of you!

We had corn dogs and mac and cheese.

Spaghetti with elk and pork meat balls.. Pretty good..

I thought the peppers were spinach. That's even better though.
Chili Relleno's are my favorite Mex food so I'm sure I could put a dent in that batch given a chance.

That looks well worth trying and agree with less cloves.

Round stk, baked spud, green beans, and rolls..

Popcorn, and half a corndog.

Jeeze Richard, you on starvation rations?

We had left overs tonight. Corn dogs, chili, ribs and potatoes.

In fact we had leftovers for lunch too.

Never did mind leftovers.

I'm livin' in the lap of luxury Jim, I was due for a blood test fast, till the storm came in. Tonight, I can eat more!!

Thanks for posting this. I've got several neck roasts that I've been kicking around low and slow ideas for, but think I will try this with one of them.

Sunday night was potato, bacon & leek chowder.

Last night was rich & hearty venison stew.

Shaw uses a shoulder roast in the recipe and I found a neck roast took about an hour longer. I cooked mine in an enameled dutch oven in a 300 degree oven rather than a crockpot, roast wouldn't fit in the crockpot. I also browned the roast on all sides first (habit).

I used two chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (my wife freezes them individually). It was spicy and had some heat but not over the top. Using 4 peppers would have been hotter than I like.

Boiled spam served with 3 day old bread...

Going to be venison burgers with a slice of gruyere and a couple chunks of bacon fresh out of the smoker on top on a foccacia.

Paul, I bet that chowder was good. Didn't have any walleye hanging around?

It was !!!

No on the walleye though. Was all set to move my big shack out last weekend, but the natives shut down the road access point, due to excessive litter.

Don't blame them one bit !! Fuggin people drive me bonkers !!!!

[bleep] garbage everywhere + burning open fires on the ice !!

FOOK !

Rant done.

Beef stroganoff and steamed green beans.

Headed into San Antonio for a meeting and hit a Whole Foods along the way back. I picked up a bowl of their seafood/andouille gumbo for me and a bowl of clam chowder for my wife. Both very good.

Potato Bacon Corn chowder some sharp Cheddar sprinkled on top.
Can't believe I didn't have any Biscuits or French bread in the house but it was still delicious.

Mcdonalds last night.

Prawns, crab cake, calamari, clam chowder, Caesar salad, and tiramisu for desert with a tawny port to round it out.

Holy fugg I’m still stuffed. Chowder was killer. Finished table side with a bit of sherry and cracked pepper.

Sweet Jesus......I'd burst at the seams.

I dare not move to quick for fear of splitting open. Lol.

Really was just a couple small appetizer plates and soup/salad shared with the wife. The chowder really was great. The bit of sherry added at service was a nice touch. Kinda reminded me of a bisque.

Bacon, sausage, and homespun blueberry flapjacks.

One of my favorite meals.

I put Andouille sausage and Okra in the beans.

Hamburg steak, baked beans, rolls & the wife talked about vegies..

Cold can of Chef Boyardee Ravioli - Just eat it out of the can with a plastic spoon. Nothing to clean when finished.

I had Cajun rice dressing for lunch and to hold me over while dinner was cooking, dinner being chicken, sausage and tasso gumbo. No okra and no tomato.

IDGAS if gumbo is some kind of African jabber for okra, it's nasty. If I want to see green phlegm I'll get a sinus infection and blow my nose.

Little touchy tonight......ain't ya?

Nah, just goofing around.

Me too.

I put okra in mine because Charlie told me to.

I have no idea if I like it or not.

Now that all my grease burns have healed from my first roux cooking adventure, I will be building another gumbo soon.

I like okra. Don’t really get the aversion to it? Pretty mild and neutral flavor.

Agreed.....Okra's harmless.

I had some veggies I needed to use up so I made a pot of Chicken Noodle soup.
Had a big chunk of buttered store bought bread with it......delicious.

[Linked Image]

Okra pickled or deep fried is how I like it. Not bad if it’s in a good gumbo, paella or jambalaya.

I had homemade chicken fajita with ranchera sauce, refried beans, avacado, salad, and queso fresca.

Last night was supposed to be a traditional style smoked brisket. Wife came home with two corned briskets...

Ended up smoking both with two different rubs; one hotter than the other which was sugar based. Smoked with small bit of hickory to 180º and sliced thin. Both were good, but the "hotter" one was a bit too salty on the cured meat. Makes a good sammich though! Paired that with a Ceasar salad and my wifes brussel sprout casserole. Too stuffed for any game time libations...

Sounds like you wound up in the same general neighborhood as pastrami.

Yep and where I got some cooking info on times/temps from Al's internet. Will probably do the sugar based rub one again as the meat was cheap enough (sub $5/lb) and it went over well.

Potato soup.

Ribs, noodles, baked beans & salad!!!

Chicken fried steaks, left over mashed potatoes (fried in a iron skillet) and a can of corn.

It dont get much better than that!

Jim, a man after my heart, but I like some kind of breads.. Salads ok once in a while...

Ha!

I was going to ask you....what kind of noodles go good with ribs?

Was it a side dish or just noodles?

Wife puts together home made Roquefort dressing once in a while. She does not even like it....but makes it for me.

If you run out of salad, you can put some on fresh baked bread. I have been known to eat a Roquefort dressing sandwich.

Pepperoni pizza and Canadian bacon pizza

Left over Chicken Noodle soup of course. You think I ate that whole pot in one setting?

FatCity67, if you ever make it to Montana there are a couple variations you need to know.

A "ditch" is often served in a large glass.

If you like it stronger, you order a "short" ditch. Same booze, less water.

Or, my personal favorite....a "splash" ditch. Same glass as a "short" ditch, but filled to the top with whiskey and juuuuuust a splash of water.

Sorry Stagg Jr. at 130 proof gets a cube

Up at the place in north Idaho with a friend that has had a solid year and a half of tough health care, thankfully well executed at UCLA. He is fine and with the stove lit and cabin warming he made seared sesame covered Ahi, grilled zucchini, rice and a wasabi/soy/vinegar based dunking sauce. It was killer.

Was making some deer bolagna tonight and kept about a pound out and fried it on medium in peanut oil , made some mac n cheese , put it over a bad of onions and habarnaro cheese , deer burger was pure deer so it was fried loose and dumped over the Mac n cheese , cracked the top on a Bud light , wife and I was smacking our lips and smiling , mmmm good , Kenneth

Chili dogs.

Cheese and onion.

Tonight I put some yellow mustard on the dog first before the other toppings.....as seen on tv.

It was really good!

Tonight I am minutes away from a stuffed artichoke. The place smells great.

Sorry Stagg Jr. at 130 proof gets a cube

Tell mathman....I was just giving you a heads up.

i simmered up some kielbasa and brats with a big bag of kraut last night. Served with boiled potatoes. We were out of horseradish so some mustard had to suffice.

Really tasty.

Elk tenderloin. Rubbed with the Lysander beef rub and then on the egg for a couple hours over mesquite to 140 and finished in the oven.

Oven fried chicken, green beans, mashed potatoes and chicken gravy from the pan drippings.

I actually got a pretty good scald on that chicken.

I thought it was over cooked, but the wife said she liked it.

[Linked Image]

The bride fixed a big lasagna. Not exactly health food but was nice after a big workout.

Roast leg o lamb, boiled potatoes with butter and parsley, grilled asparagus, apple pie with a scoop of ice cream.

I can no longer make fun of fat people.

Pasta covered with a jar of Barilla marinara. Lazy day in front of the fire.

I had Green Chili Stew. Good stuff!

Looks like a spicy meata ball. Is there veal braciole in that pot?

What kind of operation you got going on here?

You break in to a restaurant?

We had Cowboy Kent Rollins poor man's lobster tonight.

It was good.....fine job Kent.

It actually took some doing....finding cod cheap enough to cook.

One joint we tried had cod at 40 bucks a pound! Schit...might as well have regular lobster at that price.

New 2 99s
Those are some fine looking appetizers and meals presented in your post.

Jin Conrad
Cod here at Costco is $5.99 a pound.

Made some of his poor mans lobster last week.
Had it as Fish and Chips tonight, though with fresh made onion rings instead of chips.

Dinner was at a neighbors tonight. Braised beef short ribs from a local ranch, roasted potatoes, asparagus and a mixed greens salad. Well done.

Just got back from our annual Caribbean cruise Jim.

A little something to help break up our [bleep] cold winters !

Chicken chile verde hash fried eggs over. Breakfast actually before everyone scooted off to work.

I omit the cloves.

Thanks for posting this. I've got several neck roasts that I've been kicking around low and slow ideas for, but think I will try this with one of them.

Shaw uses a shoulder roast in the recipe and I found a neck roast took about an hour longer. I cooked mine in an enameled dutch oven in a 300 degree oven rather than a crockpot, roast wouldn't fit in the crockpot. I also browned the roast on all sides first (habit).

I used two chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (my wife freezes them individually). It was spicy and had some heat but not over the top. Using 4 peppers would have been hotter than I like.

Finally got a chance to make this over the weekend. Outstanding.

[Linked Image]

Yep, I'll take 2.

Please !

Home made pizza & burgers, this week !

[Linked Image]

I went pure trailer trash.......fried some smoked cheese sausage and chunked em up in a batch of Velvetta mac&cheese with a can of smashed whole tomato's.....washed it down with a PBR....

I plan to leave the door ajar tonight so the dogs can get out if I die in my sleep of a heart attack.

I can beat that Charlie, we had Caseys take out pizza, it was so good.

Had a really good, thick chunk of Top of Iowa Sirloin from Fareway, along with some baked beans, onion slices fried up with the stems from some Ports of Bellows (caps go tomorrow night with mozzarella on them), garlic toast, and a tossed salad.

Blackend chicken, broccoli, and fettuccine with a garlic cream sauce. Was fair to middlin’.....

Pastrami, mortadella and turkey deli sandwiches on Dutch Crunch rolls. Lays potato chips and orange crush.

Fat Tuesday date night with wifey.

Went to the Marina and watched the sun set over the Delta on the upper deck of a friends house boat.

Flew back to Texas this evening after a couple of weeks in Idaho. Hit a Mexican place for take-out. One cheese and one beef enchilada, a beef taco, rice and beans. Ate about half but it was darn good.

Pork ribs last night, cooked with mesquite wood

I had a T-bone steak and portobello mushroom caps stuff with cheese.

Penne with home made tomato sauce, steamed asparagus tips, basil leaves & shaved parmesan cheese !

I topped it with a little Sriracha.

Except for the noodles and spinach, I got no idea what that other stuff is. Does look good.

Tuna casserole. I forgot to put the peas in but it was good anyway.

Next time I head over your way I’d like to bring ya some home canned albacore and salmon Charlie

Boy, that would liven up a tuna noodle casserole!

I used to Bear hunt with a friend in Coos Bay OR. His Mom would buy Tuna fresh off the boat and can it.
She'd load me up with a dozen or so jars every time I showed up. It been hard to eat store bought ever since.

Who’d you hunt with down there? We used to hunt bear with some boys down there. Blankenship was one. Another ol boy from sweet Home, Johnny... can’t remember his last name

Anyhow I drive by your place a couple times a year, I’ll drop a batch off for ya next time

What’s a Montana meatloaf Jimbo?

I suspect its called an Idaho or Washington meatloaf in those places!

its got 2 eggs, 2/3 cup milk, 2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp pepper, 3 slices bread, crumbled, large chopped onion, i cup cheddar cheese, 1/2 cup shredded carrot, 2 pounds ground beef.

The topping is what makes it really good,.

1/4 cup brown sugar, 1/4 cup ketchup, and a table spoon yellow mustard.

We double the topping.

Copy that love a good meatloaf sammich

What’s your canned albacore recipe?
Finally about worked through a freezer full. Smoked a good bit of it and tried canning a some. My smoked comes out better than my canned.

I've been racking my brain for about an hour now and for the life of me I can't remember his last name (old timers disease).....first name was Tod.
We met at a party at a mutual friend in Carson City NV's house and got to talking about hunting.
I had never hunted Bear and he had never hunted Mule Deer but we both wanted to so we planned a couple of hunts.
That went on for about five years with both of us having success but life got in the way and we lost touch.
His parents were just great.....his mom picked berries and had a fresh pie waiting in camp at the end of the day and his step father was the best woodsman I've ever met. He had the #4 OR Black Bear record (at that time?) hanging on his wall.

BTW......does any one know how the title of this thread magically changed?

Yea.......I'm talking to you FatCity.....

Opps

Chunk er up, inch headspace, little salt, lil evoo and pressure cook the alotta time. I can getcha exact measurements/time if you want. Last few years though I’ve been adding rosemary, dill, japalenos, or siracha. Siracha is really good. Brought some yellowfin back from Mexico in October I canned it all up, but haven’t tried it yet, which reminds me I have some vacuum packed tuna collars in the freezer I need to bbq...

I’ll give it another run this year. I didn’t use any oil.

Smoked came out killer. First batch was a bit salty. That tuna soaks up the salt far more than salmon does.

Don’t get me wrong I wasn’t attacking you. I. I’m sure it tasted fantastic. To put it differently I wouldn’t have covered up the great taste of game meat with all that sauce and cheese. But I don’t have couple hundred lbs of game meat to dispose with either.

I used a chicken parmesan recipe and just substituted an elk muscle group roast that I cut into 1 inch or so cutlets and pounded thin. After breading them and sauteeing in pan, I had all the cutlets resting and sauteed some garlic, onion and spinach in the same pan, then put the spinach mixture into the casserole, laid the cutlets on top and smothered with marinara and then dotted with ricotta cheese. Fresh mozarella would be good too. Baked for about 40 min at 375.

Boy I bet that was tasty...

Ugh, boneless chicken chunks n sauce from a box !

Chirizo and White Bean soup with hot Biscuits.

Found some new Chirizo at a local grocers butcher shop instead of the packaged crap I usually have to settle for. Good flavor but it was chewy/rubbery....I think they made it with some of Hanco's wild hogs.

[Linked Image]

Chili cheese dogs. Nothing fancy just fixins from the store including canned chili.

Chili Verde pork stew, topped with diced jalapenos, avocado and sour cream. Flour tortillas on the side. Beer to wash it down.

Cauliflower soup topped with bacon,cheddar, and chives...

Elk tenderloin on the side...

Butternut squash raviolo, crispy sage butter sauce, lots of cracked pepper & grated parmesan.

Gulf shrimp tacos in corn tortillas, with sour cream, diced onion, cilantro, guacamole, diced mater's, and a white spicy sauce for lack of a better term as toppings along with homemade Mexican rice...

General Toa chicken & vege stir fry with udon noodles.

Tonight was dinner at the 'fire Tonto gathering. It was grilled steak, fried fish, ranch beans, potato salad and corn bread and every bit of it was cooked right and excellent.

Grilled shrimp and fish tacos with cilantro lime rice.

Left over beef liver, and fried potatoes.

Last night, the wife made an absolutely fantastic tuna and noodle casserole. There wasn't anything novel about it - cream soup (celery), some diced onion, celery, and carrot, some slices of yellow cheese and potato chips on top. I am not generally a fan, but this was made with Al's back door tuna instead of the usual cat food that gets mislabeled as being for human consumption.

Tonight was another excellent dinner at the 'fire Tonto gathering in Arizona. Pork green chile, elk enchiladas, antelope tacos and a green salad. Phenomenal meal thanks to Kent and company.

Bread pudding with vanilla sauce.

Home made, first time I had made it.

A Brussels Sprout White Bean Sausage with Dejon Mustard sauce concoction I found on the interweb.
It was actually pretty dang good but since I'll be eating it again the next couple of days I think I'll forgo the noodles.
I feel like a tick on a fat dog.

[Linked Image]

And for the record.....I used the best German sausage on the planet. This chit's fantastic. The odd thing is though.....the only place I can find it is at a small grocery store in a little logging town down the road. They don't even list it on their web-site.

Seasoned with Ras al Hanout ( Moroccan spice mix).

Followed by a soon to be eaten apple dessert (My wife already go to it, but she cooked it so it's sorta OK that the man of the house didn't get his piece first)

It's always nice to be on a first name basis with the critter you're eating.

Well done.

I've been warned not to name anything I grow here on the homestead!

By the way, nice pot you nabbed there. I'll try to remember to watch for the report on performance.

Oh, the stew was cooked in cast iron fry pan. As Luke deserved.

Geno

PS, I think Luke won a ribbon or some such. No matter, he was so tasty. And as is normal for 4H animals.............................f'n expensive. Our family had to outbid folks................in the San Diego area , at the Del Mar county fair no less. Nowhere near the prices I saw them going for in Asotin county.

Chicken Cachitore and saffron rice. Or how ever in the hell you are supposed to spell it.

Did not have any spaghetti noodles...or white rice....so got use the package of saffron rice we bought.

Was damn good....wife cooked.

Looks good Jim. Brings back memories of Sunday dinner with my Italian Maternal Grandfather. Minus the saffron rice.

Meat and spinach raviolis with marinara. Sourdough bread.

I like those plates Jim, makes me feel right at home!

Leftover cardboard pizza, and popcorn for desert, after the band concert.

Shot a pig last week and canned one loin by cutting it into strips and canning with red pepper flakes and taco seasoning. Worked late tonight so I emptied a jar into a skillet and added a teaspoon of oil and a half a chopped onion. Made up into about the best pork tacos I’ve ever had. And it only took five minutes, literally.

Need to shoot more pigs and repeat.

Thats cool.

Almost makes me wish there were hogs around here....almost!

Haha! I said it was "good times" at the Conrad camp.

Not real "high cotton" times! Just good times

You can come shot ours Jim. As you said you don’t want the bastards up there. I shot 2 out of a group of 21, one out of a group of 4, and caught a bunch with dogs that fell to the knife all in the last month. Most folks don’t eat them but we take the loins out of smaller ones that don’t stink and they eat just like store pigs. I tell folks that look at me funny for eating them that pigs is pigs, don’t matter where they live they’re just pigs. I even made Canadian bacon out of a whole loin off one I shot last spring. Tasty stuff but it takes a week at least to make.

Sounds good to me.

Ha! I just bought some salt pork and was trying to figure out what the hell to do with it.

How do you put that dish together Charlie?

Salt Pork and Pinto's go together like Opera and Ice Cream.

Don't use too much SP or they'll get to salty. I use 1/2 of a 12oz package for a pound of beans.
Onions and garlic are mandatory......Okra's optional.

I dont know what in the hell that means! Sorta like Cagney and Lacey?

I just looked and I dont have any pintos.

Oops......I can't spell worth a dam.

Make that Oprah

PS....SP also goes well with Black Eyed Peas.....hint.

Hahahaha!

I found a recipe that calls for bacon, ham hocks and diced ham.

I reckon I could slip a little SP in there somewhere. Maybe for the diced ham.

Got to use Grandpa's bacon knife at lunch time.

Cool knife. I a few old family butcher knives too. I have no idea what brand they are but they're collectors knives to me.

I have that same basic setup Charlie. Grandpa did a lot of butchering.

Tonight's beans errr...peas.

If that tastes like it looks there's some happy campers a Casa Conrad tonight.

I bought a couple of pounds of seasoned fajita beef from a fairly new shop nearby and they have nailed it. They use some sort of vacuum technique... My son threw the slabs on the grill with poblano and jalapeno peppers and onions, pinto beans, guac and Sadies hot salsa made for a great dinner.

Panko pork schnitzel , green beans, boiled new potatoes , fruit salad , mint chocolate chip ice cream.

Jim, along with the food, I like that :"lived in look". Home cookin. \\

I made the best black eyed peas I’d ever had a few months back. Not even sure what I put in them, besides home made bacon.

A good pot O peas is surely something to appreciate.

huntinaz,

Are you just throwing thin sliced, raw elk on top there? That looks awesome.

Travis

Slice the elk thin, then I add salt, pepper, little bit of Ponzu, and sesame oil. Mix it in well and let it set awhile in the fridge.

There’s also a spicy elk mixture inside some of them. I chop up the elk fine as I can with a knife, add chili garlic sauce and siracha mayo, little ponzu... it rocks. Kinda like a spicy tuna adaptation with elk.

That's bad ass. Thanks.

It’s quite good. The sesame oil is the ticket.

Also inside is avocado, cucumber and cream cheese.

I was on a sesame oil kick a few years back. Started getting expensive, though.

Love that stuff.

King Ranch Chicken Soup.

I stumbled across the recipe and it sounded good so I made half of batch.
It's pretty dam good....I'll probably make it again but next time I'll pick up some Modelo Negro to wash it down with.

Looks great Scott,

Care to shared your baguette secrets ?

I still make "your" BBQ flat breads !

Nothing to it.

1 1/2 cups of warm water a little honey and a packet of yeast in a large bowl and let that proof, about 10 mins.

Mix 4 cups of unbleached AP flour and 2 tablespoons of Kosher salt.

Add the flour mix to the yeast (after is proofed), half at a time and mix to form your dough.

Remove and knead on a floured surface for 5-7 minutes.

Coat a bowl with olive oil, put the dough ball in that bowl, flip and get oil on both sides. Cover and let sit for 1 1/2-2 hours at room temp to rise.

Push it down a little, cut it in half and work each half into rectangle. Keep folding in half while lengthening. Keep fold on bottom.

Put on flat pan (I use a cookie sheet) that has been dusted with a little flour or corn meal and let the loaves rise for 30-45 minutes.

Preheat oven to 400 degrees

Boil 2 cups of water on the stove top in an oven proof pan ( I use a small cast iron)

Transfer the water to the lower rack in the oven or on the oven floor if you can

After the loaves have risen the 1/2 hour or so, cut a few slits across the top, splash with a little water and put in the oven and cook for about 25-30 minutes.

All done.

The water helps give a little steam/humidity in the over to give the loaves a hard/crisp crust.

Had a store bought dinner tonight.

Boys had chicken nuggets, wife had chicken fried rice, daughter had shrimp fried rice and I had a chicken fried steak.

Not too bad.

Bacon-Potato Corn Chowder.

We did pasta via spirled zucchini "pasta" in olive oil, sun dried tomatoes and olives with a mixed green salad with olive oil, vinegar,

It helps living in a city where an original colony of Chinese Immigrants settled in the 1800’s looking to find fortune in the Gold Rush and building projects.

Third largest Chinatown in the US for a time in the 1900’s.

how do you get your plates to stick to the walls ? Velcro

Ahem....Mr. FatCity......how does a person go about making a tortilla like that?

We make some yellow corn tortillas from scratch, but those look a lot different.

Anyway, we got our beef back from the butcher yesterday. Wife put about 3 months worth of store bought finishing pellets into him.

We like to use barley, but could not find any and we needed to change the flavor on this critter in a hurry. The butcher has a waiting list and you better be ready. Otherwise its usually several months out.

I pan fried a few of the rib steaks tonight. Very good flavor and nice and tender.

The steer was originally going to be a grass fat animal, but with the drought and nasty winter we decided to finish on grain.

[Linked Image]

A bit of leftover matzo ball soup tonight.

It starts with the chicken, a bunch of chicken feet and some of the innards...

After a full day of simmering, the broth is ready (all solids are removed) and the matzo balls go in to boil

To finish it off, I ground up some horseradish to add to the soup. We like our horseradish really potent and while a gas mask ain't 100% necessary, it sure helps things.

I saw some chicken feet at the store the other day......damned if I could figure out what anyone would do with em but now I know....thanks....I think.

The gas mask seems a little over the top but I've never ground my own horse radish so what do I know.

Jim.....that beef looks delicious.

My goodness your meat has me salivating😎

Water, lard, flour, salt and I think a little baking soda. Learnt it from My Paternal Grandmother. Honestly the poor thing could barely boil water when we started dating in college. It’s the darndest thing lots of rolling into little balls to rest. Then flip floping with the hands and plop on to a large round Lodge griddle, called a comal in Spanish. These tortillas are called gorditas or “little fattys” because they are the size of a corn tortilla, soft, fluffy.

She said lots of good recipes on the net but it’s the rolling, resting and hand manipulation you have to practice.

To be sure I never get these homemade but once in a blue moon now since all the kids are off to college and out on their own.

Chicken feet for stock. Old school.

Wife’s broccoli blue cheese salad for Easter Sunday dinner at her family get together.

Jim.....that beef looks delicious.

If you're only grinding a small amount of horseradish there's not much of a problem. I was grinding about 5 lbs of it, though...after a while it has the same effect as tear gas. Eyes burn and shut, nose runs crazy, can't breathe, start to wretch...

The feet are actually the key to the best chicken stock. They make the flavor richer and deeper than any other part of the chicken can do.

Gotcha...that did strike me as an awfully large amount of Horseradish.....
I'm sure home made is better than commercial but no more than I use I think I'll just stick with store bought.....well that and the fact that I don't own a gas mask.

Simple and very good.

How do you make your matzo balls?

I am a fan of the sinkers...so I use the the traditional recipe of 2 eggs (beaten), add in 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil and a bit of salt, a few tablespoons of water (or chicken stock) and then mix in half a cup of matzo meal. Let the mixture sit in a fridge for at least half an hour (the longer it sits, the denser the matzo balls), then form them into small balls (maybe 3/4" across) and drop them into the boiling chicken stock. 10 minutes later, they're done. We then put a big spoonful of grated horseradish into the soup bowl before eating it, but we tend to have a thing for that level of heat. We also add in the gizzards after they've simmered for about 12 hours and have become really tender.

Got a real good feed everyday !

I’d do a big batch of smothered pork chops. Some corn bread. A batch of Bart’s chili. Some field peas with bacon and greens. Lamb and barley soup. A pot of red beans. Braised shanks from whatever recently died (hope it was a lamb). BBQ shrimp.

I’ll think of some more purity soon.

I've already done Red Beans with Okra, Hoppin John with Collards, a batch of Pintos with Bacon, and I have the makings for Bangers and Mash on deck when I get through with the Gumbo. She's coming along nicely.

I like the Barley Soup Idea but I think I'll pass on Bart's Chili....not that it's not a killer recipe but it has Tomato's and I try to avoid them in my CI pots and skillets. I do like the Smothered Pork Chops idea though. I stumbled across a new recipe the other day that I'm wanting to try. I'm sure I'll eventually get around to it.

Originally Posted by FieldGrade

Agree on the acidity of the toms and your CI concerns. Try adding at the very end of the cook and transferring to nonreactive containers for later on.

I am currently cooking a chicken and andouillie gumbo in my Lodge 5 quart dutch oven.

[Linked Image]

Got it for Christmas you know!

I made the damnedest pot of Blackeye peas in it a while ago.

Dang Jim....you spill almost as much stuff on the stove top as I do......"almost".

I used to use my mom's old Werner 10" chicken fryer for such tasks but it developed a crack in the bottom that eventually started leaking. My friend that's a welding instructor at the college tried to fix it for me but you know how sketchy welding old oil soaked CI can be.
I bought this 4qt a couple months ago. I'm really digging it. It's not as cool as using mom's old pan was but to be honest, having two handles as opposed to one skillet type handle makes it a lot easier to use and the beans don't know the difference.
I turned the old pan into an outdoor flower pot. I think mom would approve.

I bet she would!

Boy what I wouldn't give for some home made tamales.

Yes...a Misto. I think the wife uses it.

Gumbo was very good.

I used less liquid tonight and used more vegetables.

Even threw in a shallot.

I know for a fact that I have never eaten a home made tamale.

I bet they are good.

I like more veggies and less liquid too.....I also throw in a 12oz package of frozen sliced okra about half way.
It really helps thicken and adds to the flavor IMO.

This last batch was my best to date and I've made a lot of gumbo.....I can't imagine it was because of the new pot so I'm assuming it has something to do with the oven baked Roux. I was able to get it a lot darker than I usually do.

PS....i wish we could get better sausage around here. The only Andouillie I can find is Hillshire Farms...it leaves a lot to be desired.

Heck of a dinner Jim.

Haven’t had Roquefort dressing in probably 20yrs.

Used to be a fairly common option in restaurants when I was a kid. Can’t remember the last time I’ve seen it on a menu.

I guess years ago the supply of Roquefort cheese dried up from France.

Trade war or something.

After that, everyone switched to blue cheese dressing. Now that you can get Roquefort cheese again, folks have gotten used to the milder taste of blue and find the taste of Roquefort too strong.

Guac is one of my all time favorites - we make it twice a week, sometimes more. We make our own chips though but those are great chips....

Darn good looking grub FG. Did ya jest let the cabbage swim in the keibasi juices covered ? Time to dig out my Lodge DO.

Thanks

Yep........browned the sausage in a little lard, removed them and browned the spuds in the drippings, added some chicken broth and onions, put the sausage back in, cabbage on top and simmered with that big heavy ass lid in place for about 45 minutes. The juices were the best part...I was tempted to lick the dish but the dogs were watching.

One of the nice things about the Southwest Is the year round access to good quality low cost Hass avocados. Yeah used to make our own chips when the kids were still at home but those will suffice. More time for drinking beer.

BTW Tasty looking meal FG.

Venison jalapeno cheddar brat Hotdogs, with extra Havarti, sautéed onions & mustard, served in sourdough baguette.

Saulsbary(sp) steak with baked potatoe, mixed corn and green beans, with homemade bread.

Bought a value pack of pork chops at the big grocery store.

They put the nice ones on top, ugly ones underneath. I think there are 20 in the pack. 2.50 a pound.

For me anyway, the uglier the chop, the better the flavor. A loin is fun to cook with, but has no flavor.

So we pan fried several, with instant mashed and some steamed broccoli.

Wasn't a scrap left.

Damn....does anyone remember my recipe for ham and bean soup?

Whoa !!!!!! Back off, Jim. Right now most of us are being held in awe by sharp things.

Salad, baked spuds, with trimmins', T bone.

Fried in lard chikken thighs. New to me. First attempt in my Griswold cooker over propane resulted in slightly burned skins as well as dryish meat as I could not throttle back my flame enough without causing flameouts. Tomorrows cook on a smaller burner will result in good eats I'm sure.

Cooked up a big ole pot of red or pinto beans last night. Fixing to fry up some eggs & bacon and make some homemade burritos with the fresh tortillas I bought at the bakery last night. Add some hot sauce, shredded cheese, and sour cream for yum yum good!

I have found that I like quite a few of the recipes on "deepsouthdish".

Thats where my blackeye peas recipe came from.

Agreed......

I have a neck roast in the oven braising in osso buco liquid. Probably make quinoa to go with it. Or rice.

Pulled a tub of Red Beans with Andoulie and Okra out of the freezer and made a pot of rice.

Easy and delicious

Darn hot sauce thread had me craving a shredded roast beef chimichanga from a local place.

I’ve been threatening my wife I’m going to give the whole gumbo thing a go after reading all the posts and threads yous guys post.

To add above spicy garlic pickled okra is one of my favorite snacks when at deer camp. Buddy got me hooked on them in the late 80’s and it’s been his job to make sure I have a few jars at the ready every year. His wife pickles them herself.

I did the same thing to a friend.....he had never heard of such a thing until I brought a jar on a bird hunt .....now he's hooked.
I love em......been eating em for years.
I've only had the store bought.....I bet the home growns are delicious.

PS.......With your penchant for Mexican I'm pretty sure you'll like Cajun too.

To be continued....

Bangers and Mash with Onion Gravy.

[Linked Image]

The recipe said to substitute Brats if you can't get English Sausages so thats what I did.....it was killer.
The best part is the gravy made with the Brat scrapings.....I'd like to have a gallon of that stuff.

This pic is for FB2.....

Bet that gravy is fantastic with spaetzle and bockwurst.

I love Bockwurst but I can't find any. It's a Sausage wasteland around here. Hillshire Farms is considered exotic.

I even thought about ordering some Stubbs English Sausage but I just couldn't bring my self to pay $15 + $18 shipping for a pound of Pork.

I think it was you who posted the pic of that Sausage place with a Bull for a sign.......
I'd love to spend a week or two in that place someday.

Very nice.

I never did care for any of the sausages I ate in New Zealand.....sort of an English sausage I suppose.

From what I've read English sausage is a larger version of our breakfast sausage with a lot of sage and some type of bread filler that makes them pop when cooked. I'd try it if I could get my hands on some but if I have to make it with the Brats again I'm OK with that.

I would say that is a fair description.

I guess once you got over the fact that none of the sausages tasted like any you were familiar with......they were not so bad.

Except for Saveloys! Avoid Saveloys at all cost!

When you think about it the Germans know a thing or two about sausages so using Brats can't be all that bad.
My understanding is that the English started putting the filler that makes "Bangers" go bang when you cook them during WW2 due to a shortage of pork.

Link I looked at said "Cumberland" sausage.

I never knew why they were called bangers. Very interesting.

I can't remember where I read it but a quick search came up with this cept it says WW1....

Bangers are so-called because after the First World War there was little meat in sausages -- just scraps, cereal and water -- so they sizzled and spluttered a lot when they were frying. It sounded as if there were mini explosions, or bangs, going on, hence the name bangers

http://virtuallinguist.typepad.com/the_virtual_linguist/2010/09/why-are-sausages-called-bangers.html

The more I read the more I'm inclined to think that the English aren't aware that seasonings and spices exist and they don't know chit about sausage making. I should have known they'd be ignorant since my ancestry is mostly English.

This does not sound too bad.

http://allrecipes.co.uk/recipe/33513/homemade-cumberland-sausage-ring.aspx

Mace and nutmeg in English sausage is akin fennel in Italian Style sausage from my POV. Can’t stand fennel in sausage. For years as a kid growing up the only Italian style sausage I ate was from my Maternal Grandfather whos parents were Siciliano and it was their recipe. He never used fennel which I guess is common in sausage from Sicily. The first time I had Italian style sausage from the store as a teen I spit it out. Since then I won’t eat "Italian sausage" it if it has fennel. Appearently my great grandmother hated fennel as well and thus eliminated it from her recipe when she started making it here in America. More likely fennel seed was hard to come by here in America at the turn of the 19th century and she just didn’t use it.

So, your saying you dont like fennel?

Uhhh.....whats a scorched scallop?

My father in law sends me scorched almonds. They are covered in chocolate.

Probably not chocolate scallops.

When I scorch something its burnt.

Hope he was just funnin' us. Many years ago a friends drag racing sponsor dropped off several hundred pounds of sea scallops, mushrooms and garlic cloves at the track along with a dozen or so chefs to prepare them.

Around midnight we were eating like kings.Once in lifetime exp. for me. YUM !

I made a pot of Bean soup with a big ol smoked shamk and lots of veggies. Sopped it up with a piece of buttered Pumpernicklel.
I froze half of it but I'll still be eating bean soup for the next few days. Combined with the batch of refried beans I made for breakfasts yesterday it should get pretty fragrant around here the next few days.
If you see a Cur dog and an old crippled GSP hitch hiking down hwy 12 you'll know my dogs couldn't take it any more.

Kidding aside I complain about the lack of availability of good food stuffs around these parts but I gotta say the little grocer over in Orofino sure gets their hands on some good pork products. Their smoked shanks are the best I've ever had.

[Linked Image]

I would kill myself on all you could eat scallops.

I reckon they would be good raw too.

Charlie, that is a good looking pot of soup.

Never in 100 years had I though of putting hot sauce in bean soup. I have some of that Crystal too.

I dont see any celery in there though.......

Yeah, Charlie no &^%$%^& celery. Shape up or you and the mutts be out on #12 drivin' yer thumbs.

I gotta charge the battery to the Nikon and start posting pics !!

That's it. Rub it in.

What the hell does deglazed with white wine mean?

High fahlootin' way of saying clean the pan. Bangin' gravy as well.

Dump about 1/4 cup of white wine in a pan with some drippings in it and you'll see.
It picks up all the drippings and makes a delicious sauce.....the longer you cook it the thicker it gets.

You can deglaze with other things, it’s not just white wine..

I shall have to give that a try.

IMO it’s the best way to clean a stuck cast iron or carbon skillet. I generally use water or beer.

As an alternative to white wine I keep a bottle of dry vermouth on hand for deglazing as well.

Vermouth or just about any kind of alcohol works well too. Just depends what you're cooking.

Yup I deglazed a skilled last night with a cup of tequila after browning the ground beef for the wife’s taco salad. Reserved liquid and mixed back into beef after it was done simmering with her own taco season mix in her enameled dutch oven.

Bowl of the wife’s taco salad and a frosty mug of witbier.

[Linked Image]

I don't really drink wine.
We buy some red to make saurbraten, stick the bottle in the fridge then.
Anyway, if it's handy, I will use it to deglaze, or just to add liquid for beef gravy. Just for a tasty change.

Last night was pan fried oysters. Ate 'em til I almost popped. My usual po'boy breading was a flop tho'

Wonder why ?

FG, followeed your lead and made this a couple nights ago in my $30 Aldi Dutch Oven. Mighty tasty and plenty of left overs. Some scratch made crusty Italian bread from my friends' restaurant sealed the deal.

Greg, there's an Aldi's about 90 minutes up the road from me. I believe it's you that mentions their meat from time to time. ????? Wondering about the quality ? Comments ??

Denny, I do buy their meat from time to time, especially when it's on sale. Their ribeyes, ny strips, tbones, chuck roasts are pre-trimmed and are typically good cuts. If it's not on sale, they're not competing with the spanish markets here. But, the quality is usually better. Their 80/20 ground beef price runs about $2.99/lb, which is better than almost everywhere else here and the quality is good. I buy the ground beef frequently.

I picked up 5 lbs of chicken drumsticks for $3 last night, using a $2 off/pack coupon. That's only slightly higher than the current sale price at Sedano's of $.49/lb, but you'd have to buy 10 lbs there.

You can check their flyers online before you go. Happy Hunting.

Thanks.

I know I don't have to say this but use good bacon.
If you're going to use collards look for either Glory brand Southern Style or Sylvias.
Don't bother making your own collards because you can't match either one.

I add one 14.5 oz can to half of a batch of this recipe.

Don't see anything wrong with putting collards in there. Heck, red bell peppers aren't on any recipes, either. But, I put them in my Hoppin John.

Couple of Nathan's hotdogs and an Asian chopped salad bag mix the wife got from Costco. Basically a coleslaw with a slightly sweet sesame dressing. Fresh pineapple and mango with some tajin for dessert. No pics to tired after work and battling the unwashed masses at DMV for my mother.

Nathans dogs are good.

We had a beef pot pie that my mother made and sent down.

My favorite part is the home made crust.

I never thought I would ever get old enough to say something like that.......

Nothing like coming home from school on a winters day smelling the pot pie in the oven. Fresh crust and bubbling sauce.

Ok I went back for a second helping of the fruits.

[Linked Image]

I have some of that Tajin in the cupboard.

Is that what it is for? Fruit?

It’s an all around seasoning. My kids packedseveral bottles to college and sprinkle it over everything including ice cream, college kids.

Pizza, spaghetti, fried up taters, fish, chicken and yes my favorite fruit.

Also several drink recipes using it. There is a spicy margarita and tajin is used to coat the rim of the glass. Clamato Michelada, yeah look it up.

My wifes new favorite is the gumbo I make.

Going to try a shrimp etoufe next.

Then maybe a hoppin john, or a Jambalaya and so on.

We are getting a hell of a kick out of trying Cajun/Creole cooking for the first time. The flavors are nothing like we had imagined.

Town is jammed up for the strawberry festival. I''l start a search next week.

Same here Jim. I made my first batch of Gumbo about five years ago and I've been trying my hand at Cajun dishes every since.
Gumbo's one of my all time favorite meals to date. Every batch seems better than the last.

Our source for shrimp is frozen. Either cooked or raw.

We make due!

What sort of thing is a strawberry festival? I listened to a song called Strawberry Wine once......sounded good.

My first batch was after you told me about it Charlie and posted pictures.

We had honestly never tasted anything like it before.

I love this thread.

I will make the etoufee tonight.

Jim, I hang out back in the hills and pretty much avoid "town".Lots of food, vendors and street rods. Great family style gettogether.

Rice cooker has three cups.

My favorite red tin cup has Budweiser beer in it.

Hopefully Charlie will be along soon to square you away.

I use his recipe....well recipe link for gumbo.

My black eye peas recipe is from Deep South Dish.

Do most of my "cajun" cooking in a 5 or 6 quart Dutch oven. Tony Cachere's season.

Good luck.

Dinner tonight is thick (frozen) cod fillets and a side of yellow corn and green beans. Ice cold milk.

No dinner tomorrow I suspect . 4 wheelin' with the guys. Moonshine will be present in large quantities.

Sounds like a lot of fun, FG.

Thanks, Denny.

Denny.....This is the recipe I gave Jim and a good place to start.

http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/chicken-and-sausage-gumbo-0

I do a couple of things differently though...first I like chicken thighs better than breasts so that's what I use. I cook em ahead of time in the toaster oven and then chunk em up and throw em in when it's almost done....dump all the fat and juices from the pan in the Gumbo too. I also like more veggies so I double up on the celery and bell pepper.....what the hell are you supposed to do with the other half of that bell pepper anyway ha......I also throw in a 12oz bag of frozen chopped Okra about half way and forget about the Filet powder.

Oh yea use chicken stock instead of water......start with a quart-quart and a half...you can always add more.

Mushroom and Sausage Ragu with Polenta (Grits).

http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/mushroom-sausage-rag-with-polenta

I love me some Grits and I recently got my hands on some excellent Stone Ground Yellow Grits so I went looking for recipes with Grits...errr...Polenta. This one sounded good and was easy enough so I made it tonight. It was pretty good...I'll make it again but I'll use regular Italian Sausage. I like spicy foods but hot Italian Sausage doesn't set well with my stomach.
The Grits were fantastic....I always use Sharp Cheddar but the Cream Cheese is a nice variation. It's really rich though....I feel like I just ate the hind quarter of a Wildabeast.

Thanks for the recipes and tips, FG. I too prefer thighs overs white meat. Kroger is my go to chicken source over the other two local stores.

I think I'll try a small batch of grits in the PC just for giggles. Amazing rice in the PC.

Field,

MathMan is a good guy & I always enjoy his input. Opinions are allowed !

Now, Ron Klueless is another matter entirely. He's just an arrogant, opinionated asshat, looking to stir scheet !

I live in Louisiana, south of I-10, so the distinction between Creole and Cajun is more readily seen.

Finally finished the Wild Turkey you recommended ages ago. Thanks !

Location wise I'm a coonass, but not geneaology wise.

Wouldn't someone's mentality, or maybe a better phrase would be State of Mind, also factor into the coonassity equation for some folks? I know it does with us hillbillys.

Having said that it was just a week or so ago that I was sckooled in the proper way to lean against a truck bed when drinking beer

which is not taken lightly here. They've got it down to an artform. My city ways musta been showin' through.

Education is a never ending thing even in the land of the toothless.

With all due respect to mathman I'd like to put it out there that Bud Light is king here and the local economy would likely collapse without it. Sorry MM.

The light versions of Coors, Bud and Miller sell a schit ton here too.

Here in the sophisticated north woods Keystone Lite is king.
Just look for all the empties in the barr ditches if you don't believe me.

Skipping dinner in traditional sense tonight. Instead opting for a huge ass bowl of strawberries on Bisquick short cakes. They're my favorite. YUM !

Had a Virginia ham sammy a few minutes ago as an appetizer.

People drink those kinds of "beer" for effect, and ice cold so the bad flavor is less well registered by the cold numbed taste buds. They don't really like beer.

Where we will eat tonight they have an all you can eat salad bar however a discount on prime rib with it.

I always say I am just getting the salad bar and then order both!

Tradition here dictates that when we are out on the 4 wheelers on the vast WV dirt road sytem that all aluminum be thrown to the roadside. Dollar to a donut they're gone in 2 days. Losta poor folks here so they don' last long.

There's even an old gent that rides his horse with a huge canvas sack hung on the saddle horn and a long pole with a nail snagging cans. Haven't seen him for awhile tho'. Hope he's OK

Really, on a hot afternoon out fiddling with the grill or whatever I can enjoy a sixer of cold High Life, and that ain't fancy beer. But I couldn't gag down a single Coors Light if I tried.

Here, Saturday morning gravel road surveys give Busch light as the . winner

Neighbor man has drank continuously for the last umpteen years. After being transported to the ER following an ATV rollover last summer he remained legally intoxicated for almost 72hrs so they say. Is that possible ?

Yup ! Dey sho' nuff loves Bud Light here back in the hills

Not here......I love ID but the people here are the worst litterers I've ever seen. At least the residents of No. central ID are.
Shame because it's such a beautiful place.

When I lived in NV you could mark the boundry to the REZ by the trash that all of a sudden appeared along side the highway. The border between ID ond OR is a mirror image.

Bunsteads. Ham not tuna.

Basically egg salad with pickles, diced ham and diced American cheese.

Stuff it into a hot dog bun, wrap in aluminum foil and bake at 350 until the bun gets a little crunchy and the cheese melts.
A grill or campfire works too. Just don't burn them.

Be careful, when you first unwrap, that schidt is like lava.

Easy to make ahead but keep the pickles and onion seperate, they will get watery in the fridge.

Understand your sentiments clearly FG. The itty bitty town of Pickens, WV (pop. 66) sponsored a wilderness ATV ride recently with twelve hundred ATVs showing up. Wait till this week-end . Betcha can't find a can. When I first moved here I was like WTF. DNR will still write ya a heavy ticket if they witness it.

By and large, WV folks are pretty tidy .

Firstly, littering is not a good thing. Some people don't seem to have any upbringin'.
BLT's tonight at the wabigoon ranch.

We had country style pork ribs.

My friend cooked them in a crock pot with apple cider and apple cider vinegar.

I then finished them on the grill.

Baked fries, hot dogs and asparagus from the garden.

Chili verde with grilled chicken instead of pork.

Thai red curry chicken n rice.

baked Salmon, green beans and red potatoes.

That sounds great FatCity.

We make ours with pork also. How did it turn out using the chicken?

HAHAHA!!,,,,,

Turns out great however you have to do a little tweeking as you can’t cook the chicken in the sauce for a long time like the pork as it dries out breaks aparts etc.

What we do is the wife cooks the sauce with chicken broth and I’ll toss a cold rotisserie chicken on the grill to give it some marks and extra flavor. Then into the sauce for about 30 minutes until everything comes to temp.

Just a slight variation on the pork version. I like lots of Hatch chilies in my verde sauce as well. I like the 505 brand when I can’t get them fresh and roast them myself.

Sounds awesome my man!!!

PM me your address and will send you stone ground grits done at a little privately owned grist mill about 3 miles from the house. My great uncle owned a water powered grist mill from the early 1900's to the mid 1960's. I never had store bought grits or flour until I was a teenager.

Chicken & rice soup today for a very late breakfast (?) then a huge sous vide ribeye (5hrs @140) finished on the Weber chimney for a good sear (90 seconds per side) for "lunch" followed by a huge bowl strawberry shortcake.

Somewhere today despite savage attacks by my recliner there was a burger thrown in for a "snack"

I'm bloated

Steak sammiches !!

Stuffed green peppers

Yellow 🐔 seasoned pork shoulder steak.

Salad, cocktail.

Ready for car show tomorrow.

I grilled some chicken pieces tonight.

Did a rub, cooked them slow.

Seasoned again, did the apple cider thing, brushed on a bbq sauce.

Some of them were blackened.

They were not on fire or anything........they just turned black.

Tasted good.

I made another pot of King Ranch Chicken Soup (it doesn't have any noodles in it so I hope I don't offend anyone's dad by just calling it "Chicken Soup":)
This stuff is addicting......easy to make too. It's definitely gonna become a staple in Charlie Land.

Whats a chopped salad?

I have seen that for sale on menus before, never bought one.

Just guessing Jim, you take a salad, and chop it? How bad could it be?

That soup looks good.

Years ago Alex Hamilton put up a recipe. At least I think it was Alex Hamilton when he was writing for Handgunner or something like that.

It was a King Ranch tortilla cheese layered casserole type of thing....if my memory serves.

Wish I could find it.

King Ranch Chicken. My wife used to make it a lot. Now as empty nesters we do not do casseroles much.

Who lotta sriracha?

Had home-raised chicken that I had cut up and grilled on Saturday. De-boned the breasts, sliced and topped a spinach salad (with tomatoes, green olives, and feta cheese) with it. Light, healthy, and tasty.

I had 10 Costco hotdogs, 8-16 ounce king st. Brewery ipa's.. living the dream..

I usually use more Sriracha, but I am going to spend all day in the spraying tractor......away from the comforts of home.

1.25 inches thick is minimum to be considered a porterhouse.

I did not know there were rules for porterhouses.

I assume salt and pepper but I’ve seen the term used for pan seared steak au poivre as well.

I've always understood Porterhouse to be more about the shape than the thickness. Roughly, a Porterhouse is a subspecies of T-bone with a substantial amount of meat on both the strip and loin sides of the bone. OTOH, what is often called a T-bone should be called an L-bone or Γ-bone since the loin side meat is noticeably smaller.

Porterhouse: [Linked Image]

L-bone:

https://www.ams.usda.gov/sites/default/files/media/IMPS_100_Fresh_Beef%5B1%5D.pdf

[Linked Image]

I can't see the linked image.

I pulled these from the pdf:

Item No. 1173 - Beef Loin, Porterhouse Steak - The steaks shall be prepared from any IMPS
short loin item. The maximum width of the tenderloin shall be at least 1.25 inches (3.2 cm)
when measured parallel to the length of the back bone.

Item No. 1174 - Beef Loin, T- Bone Steak - The steaks shall be prepared from any IMPS short
loin item. The maximum width of the tenderloin shall be at least ½-inch (13 mm) when
measured parallel to the length of the back bone.

That 1.25" isn't the thickness of the Porterhouse, it's the width of the tenderloin as I mentioned earlier.

Well I didn’t get my tape measure out, but it was pounds, more than an inch thick, and yes, salt and pepper.

It was also delicious and rare. Six minutes total cook, ( pan was a smokin with a avacodo oil ) ten minutes rest.

Wife bought baked pita chips for topping the salad.

Ramen as topping, brings me back to my college days. Ramen topped bowls of canned chili and Budweiser beer.

You were a high roller!

We pooled money together for a 12 pack of Schmitts animal beer!

As I am going through a bit of a mid life crisis at the moment, I tried and failed to find some Schmitts beer.

Its sad when those storied old behemoths of quality go under....

I was lucky. Pops worked for a Anheuser Distributor and got two free suitcases a month. He donated them to the cause back then.

Sweet!

Polenta is a fancy way of saying grits.....probably thought up by the French.....or a Yankee. Truth is they're both cornmeal.

I mentioned that in a post a couple weeks ago but you're so busy farming you probably missed it.

Well, I have been trying to educate myself.

I looked up polenta....and grits.

Totally foreign up here.

My Googling brought me around to some kind of Hominy and pork soup that is popular in Mexico.........I forget the name.

Sounded pretty good.

If all you did with Al Gore's internet was to look around and find new and exciting foods to try, your time would not be ill spent.

Pozole if it was pork chunks and hominy.

Believe I posted a picture of the wife Pozle she makes for New Years.

Yep, that was it.

Shoot, Charlie posting about polenta/grits/cornmeal and you posting about Pozole.........and me missing all of it.

I have really slowed down these last few years....er, weeks.

Well based on that farming thread your seems like your going great guns. I’d give yourself a break and a drink or two.

Ok what is Scamper Juice. An alcoholic beverage I’m guessing. Is that a type of moonshine like Apple Pie?

LOL.......it's just a nick name for booze.......I stole it from an old Movie or TV Western somewhere along the way.

Gotcha. Love me some Apple Pie though.

Want a sip ? Stop over.

Been ten years since I last had Apple Pie moonshine. Camped out four days at a NASCAR Event. Salad days!

My Uncle Bo was an AB distributor. When I was young and poor and he came to visit he'd stock my fridge with fancy beer, Michelob.

Time to narrow that gap !

Chicken and Mushroom Rissoto.

I love Risotto but it's a PITA to cook so don't make it very often.

Rissoto sounds interesting.....never had it before.

Yum love a good risotto. live just south of some of the best rice grown in the world. Yup you guessed correctly grown mostly for the Asian Markets.

Wife uses a rice strain called Calrose for her risottos, rice puddings, etc...

Ha! We bought a bag of Calrose rice the other day.

We thought it was for "sticky rice" or something like that.

I will have to try a risotto.

It’s my understanding it makes a great sticky rice, never made it that way in this house though.

Wife makes a killer rice pudding with it though.

Dang bowl in my rice cooker died so now I use the old skool pressure cooker. Perfect rice every time.

I use Arborio Italian Style Rice for Risotto Jim. It's nothing like the Calrose Rice I've used.

Show off.

Arborio here too. From your neck of the woods FC. Lundberg Farms, Richvale.

Calrose is a brand, not a strain. They sell both long and short grain rice.

This evening's meal was spare ribs off the new to me Pit Barrel Cooker. Only so/so 'cause I'm a terrible rib maker. Maybe some day,........................

Even though my grinder and stuffer are both marketed by Weston it turns out that the stuffer is made by "Porkert" in the Czech Republic. Which is fine by me cept it came packed in grease like a military Mauser. I figure it'll take me about that long to get the thing cleaned up and ready for use.

Had some neighbors over yesterday. Made pulled pork and coleslaw.

Cool, rainy, day today. Good day for some soup. Made a pot of black bean soup and a pan of corn bread. Used homemade broth from chickens we raise.

Looks good! Iron Mike, like those soup bowls.

Now I’ve got to make skillet cornbread!

Looks good, I just need some cool weather and rain.

That corn bread looks like it turned out great.

The one I made in the iron was lacking some.

Deb made Veal Marsala, creamy mashed taters & baby spinach sautéed in butter & garlic for my BD supper.

Followed u with blueberry tart & vanilla ice cream.

Happy birthday!

Thanks!
That's more of a winter entree for us. Summer just isn't soup season for me, but needed it yesterday. Hell, I almost made a fire in the wood stove!

Damn, I am the only Conrad who likes coconut.

I shall threaten to cut her off if she does not make them for me anyway....

And by cut her off, I mean stop making cajun food for her.

I remember my Mother and both Grandmothers had files and drawers of labels with recipes on them from cans, boxes, packages etc.

When My Paternal Grandmother passed one of my daughters grabbed a bunch of them, as well as handwritten recipes in her own hand.

Salad, brats, baked spuds. Carry on.

More motivation. Coconut isn’t as browned as it appears in picture.

Mmmmmm.......

Yep. Thats good for me.

I dont have much of a sweet tooth....but if its old timey, and has coconut....I will eat it.

Do your jambalaya and gumbo have tomatoes in them?

I have not made the jambalaya yet, but no, my gumbo does not contain tomato.

It may someday, but I have only made it twice!

We call these 7 layer cookies.
These and a real good chocolate chip are the only cookie I need.

For my "real good" chocolate chip, add 1/2 cup flour and a package of instant vanilla pudding to the Toll House receipe.

I asked because tomato is on the dividing line between Cajun and Creole. Generally, the Creole versions of dishes have tomato and the Cajun ones don't.

If you look up pictures of these dishes you'll see reddish gumbo with okra, that's Creole. Cajun gumbo is brown and typically uses much darker roux. Creole jambalaya is red like the rice you get in Mexican food, Cajun jambalaya is brown like rice & gravy.

Tonight; Potato cheese perogies boiled, w/sausage & noodle soop.

Beautiful.

I had a store bought dinner tonight.

Got sort of rained out(not really) so we went to the big town to the west.

After what ended up being a collsal schit fest we ate a pretty decent dinner.

I had the rib steak and shrimp special. Fries and a salad.

Had half a cup of soup too that I shared the rest with my daughter.

I like to buy bagged green beans and saute them with bacon, onion, mushroom and garlic.

Cooked in butter with salt and pepper.

That sounds tasty......I'll have to make some. Green beans are always good.

I just cooked some bacon and onions and threw them in the toaster oven with a couple cans of beans for about 45min.
It was a quick/easy version of this recipe that is really good.....canned beans and all.

https://styleblueprint.com/atlanta/everyday/best-baked-beans-recipe-ever/

I had roasted potatoes, onion, and red/orange peppers along with blackened (put a scorch on 'em) scallops.

I'd post a pic of the scallops (yes, I took one) but I think y'all have the idea.

Seems like beans is the theme tonight.

Sliced off all the left over rib meat from the last of the racks I cooked on Memorial Day.

Daughter home from college made biscuits and we made sliders.

Just some veggies on the side and some Four Bean Salad for me.

Is that a dish of Magic Cookie Bars I see?

Yes sir!

Just pulled them out of the oven. House smells good.

Originalist. missionary gets boring after awhile. Gotta throw in the reverse cowboy every now and again.

Brats, bean salad, tater salad (from the deli), and some BBQ tater chips.

Good, quick, and simple summertime dinner!

Cold leftover ham, Cole slaw, chips.

No idea where in the hell I am headed, but there aint no sense in being late.

That looks good Jim. Question, do you raise sweet corn? I remember when our family was the age of yours, it required a lot of energy.

We have tired several times Richard.

Last three years our garden completely failed.

Have not even gotten around to planting one yet.

Really thinking about putting up a hoop house. Should have better luck with that.

I had this pot of water boiling........and the next thing I knew I was eating Spaghetti with meat sauce.

Fried Lumpia, asian style slaw and some left over spare meat in a sauce. Sorry no pic tonight.

Porterhouse and smashed red potatoes.

Wife roast a chicken, oven potatoes and boiled some fresh-ish green beans.

Salad, and sweet corn, the corn was not so good.

Axis back strap. I cut the back strap steaks into 1" cuts, doused with a little Montreal Steak Seasoning and garlic salt. I pan seared them in garlic butter to medium rare. I've eaten my fair share of wild game, including many different African antelope that were by far the best tasting wild meat I'd ever had........up until now. This axis was at least as good as my all time favorite of gemsbok and/or a young kudu bull.

No Butts though.... just Loin (too lean) and Bone in Pic Nick (too boney:) roasts. They have them over at the small grocery store in Orofino though so I'll get some next week.

Is that Chinese pork?

We had frozen fish patties and fries.

Made sandwiches out of fish.

Not a thing wrong with it.

I'm not sure Jim.....I've been reading a lot about sausage making here lately and everyone calls it "Belly" but maybe this guy knows something they don't. I know he schooled me on some things I was confused about.

Yea.....Harvest Foods stores are all over the North Central ID area......my favorite little grocer over in Orofino (Barneys) is also a Harvest Foods store.
Not only are they a good grocery store but they're a UPS shipping center. The only question they ask is "what kind of gun is it".....and that's the guys....the check out gals want to see it.....

Don’t forget some action pics.👍

We are so swamped getting ready for this weekends 3 day archery (gathering of Elitists) event that we ate a Pappa Murphy Take away pizza last night. I cant recall the last time Ive had a take away pizza but it was pretty damn good. ITs nice to have somebody else cook for a change.

Beer battered walleye, potato wedges & coleslaw with a mayonnaise based, tricked out dressing !

Damned fine eats !

Colour me vert with envy Paul, that must have been great.

That sounds great, Paul.

Had lamb double rib chop and green salad with avacodo slices and Bob’s Big Boy blue cheese dressing.

Speaking of that, does anyone have a good fish n chips recipe that does not contain beer?

I have been trying to recreate a New Zealand type batter but have been unsuccessful.

The only thing the beer does, is provide carbonation, club soda will do the same thing, make the batter bubble. If I'm wrong, someone will be along to straighten me out.

I have a good recipe, will look it up when home and post it for you.

Just a note, you can substitute club soda for beer in batters.

----------

Had my daughter send it to me. I got it off of the net and it is really good, and very crispy and light.

2 pounds cod sliced into 3 ounce pieces (you can use other types of fish)
2 1/4 cups flour
1/4 cup corn starch
2 teaspoons sugar
2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
16 ounces club soda
Oil for frying

If you are not using a fryer, heat up 8 cups of vegetable oil in a heavy pot until the temperature reaches 350 degrees. Make the batter by combining flour, corn starch, sugar, salt, baking powder, baking soda. Stir to combine all dry ingredients. Add club soda to dry ingredients. The batter will foam, continue to stir.

Drop pieces of fish into the batter. Coat fish with batter, drop into hot oil. Fry fish for 2 to 3 minutes or until the batter is golden and the fish pieces begin to float to the top of the oil. Drain fish on a wire rack.

No .270 (I've gone the Barsness route on cleaning, anyway.) Just poking at the folks who think that God said (in the KJV, so it's official) that the only good beef is grass-fed. We know better.

Great proposition Richard !

I'll consult with Deb & let you know.

We're heading to NYC on the 19th, for Deb's sister's "destination" wedding & an Aussie family catch up !

Bring on the well marbled corn fed beef.

MathMan, I'll eat & appreciate both, for their differences !

When I say, Iowa corn fed beef, I don't even think about any other kind of beef. It just sais high quality to me.

Originally Posted by New_2_99s

True. I've had some extremely nice grass fed beef as well. The particular strip steaks were well marbled, despite being grass fed.

It's the "lean beef" of whatever origin that makes for a tough steak.

Fat is flavour !!

If too lean, adjust cooking techniques, to best utilize !

The "low & slow" was developed out of necessity & the results are full of flavour too.

The problem there is you can't really low and slow cook a too lean steak. It won't have the collagen content (that breaks down into gelatin under low and slow cooking) of something like a brisket which is ideal for low and slow cooking.

Truth !

While not ideal, you do have options.

You can cube it & make a tasty beef bourguignon, or other casseroles, strips for stir fry/stroganoff etc, or if all else fails make jerky !

Myself, I wouldn't buy a steak, I didn't want to cook to my liking, but that's not saying you don't have options.

Here's an example of a tough cut of beef, turned into some thing wonderful !

Nothing wrong with corn finished....we just prefer prefer barley.

Not much corn up here, so we are used to barley.

I may have had barley finished beef and I just don't know it. I'll be on the lookout so I can deliberately try some if I see it in a meat case.

Plus now I have a nice glass jar that I can put stuff into.

You country folk are always so frugal.

Pizza tonight. No one wanted to cook. Well no one was home all day either.

I bet there is some fine pizza to be had in your country.

That is a benefit of this area. Travel over the hill to liberal lal la land and there are wood and coal fired pizzerias. Some of the frufru places have wood fired ovens from Italy.

Leftover steak sandwich.

Ice cream cone.

Tonight we left our little motel in tiny Lodi and found a local eatery. Love small towns.

Soft serve vanilla in a waffle cone. Is there any other ?

Thanks, I feel better now.

We had grilled pork chops, broccoli salad, cucumbers and potatoes.

Choice of key lime pie or rice crispy treat for dessert.

Best pick I've seen on here in a coon's age, Mr. Fat. Thanks.

Fatcity Dumpster Delight: Swedish Five Cheese Tortelloni Steakhouse Stroganoff

Adjust accordingly to taste.

Two yellow onions
1lb button mushrooms
2lbs ground beef, half hour at room temp.
1lbs frozen spinach
1.5lb pkg Kirkland Five Cheese Tortelloni
16oz Daisy Sour Cream
Half Stick butter
Cup or more of regular milk
1/2 cup or more half n half
Extra Virgin Olive Oil EVOO
Granulated garlic
Fresh cracked pepper
Level Table spoon Sea Salt, use less if using table salt. Bigger flakes in sea salt.
Allspice
Half a lemon

Couple hours before boil Tortelloni per instructions to aldente. Into bowl coat with couple teaspoons EVOO. Leave bowl uncovered until pasta starts to dry out slightly. Cover put in fridge or use immediately.

Slice onions in half thru root and top. Slice up each half face down again thru the poles. I like mine thick. Slice up mushrooms same, thick. Sauté onions first with as much granulated garlic you like. I like a lot. When they get soft toss in mushrooms. Cook down until they lose a little water. Don’t over sauté and break down completely. Again think chunky. Toss in bowl.

Turn pan to high when left over oil and garlic start to slightly smoke toss in meat and meat juices. Let scorch a little then break up and brown. I like mine with good carmelization on meat.. Toss in bowl.

Toss frozen Spinach into hot pan cook till broken apart and pan deglazed. Next time I will use one lb spinach per lb of beef. Loses to much volume.

Turn down to med low.

Toss beef back in pan use spatula to scoop in all juices. LOTS of fresh cracked pepper and about a table spoon of salt. Mix together then toss in onions/mushrooms mix sprinkle allspice over top. I kept tasting until it reminded me of A good Steakhouse creamed spinach dish.

Dump in sour cream, butter, milk and half n half, mix till all incorporated. Toss in Tortelloni, heat thru and FOLD so they don’t break apart.

Add more milk and or half n half until you get the desired creamy and sauciness. Fold don’t stir. More pepper/salt to taste.

At end after off heat I squeeze a little less than half a lemon over top and folded in. Also use after plated if you really like the fresh tangy taste.

A little early to give a full report but suspect it will rate high up there with the WSM. The hang on hooks method really expands the real estate over putting your meat on a grill shelf as in most smokers out there..

Porterhouse, linguine with red sauce and asparagus.

Local asparagus down to $1.99lb. Gonna be some grilled this weekend. Cooking up some of those brats I posted a picture of in FieldGrade’s sausage fest of a thread.

Thats good looking grub.

Good idea saving the drippings.

That woman's head seems to be in all your photos.

I guess I am getting used to it.......

Funny aside, that Frida Kahlo head with the succulents was a gift to the wife from her sister. She absolutely hates it. So I made it my official foodie pic mascot. I always get the ah schit eye roll from her when I put the head in the pics. Funny crap you do after 26.5 years of marriage. Don’t worry you’ll get there.

Saving the drippings is indeed a good idea.

I recently discovered that Brat drippings along with some caramelized onions and beef stock makes the best brown gravy known to mankind.

Beautiful hydroponic lettuce from the farmers market !

So, chicken fajitas, sautéed red onion & sweet peppers, avocado & grape tomatoes, turned into ............................

I threw a moose round roast into the crockpot this morning with gravy, taters, onions, and carrots- served over rice. Doesn’t get much better than that!

Not supper, but a late breakfast.

Beans, eggs, potatoes, and a couple cans of kippered herrings.

Was well received.

I'm starting to think I may be in the country illegally.
Last night I made some Pinto Beans with Mexican style seasoning and then I had Mexican Charizo and eggs this morning.

I stole a page from that King Ranch Chicken Soup I make and added some tortilla strips at the end. It was pretty good.

Looks good FG. Thanks for sharing.

Just put some heat under a big pot of red beans and rice.will check in a few hours.Shoulda had it on much earlier but the new water line is kicking our azz. Damn WV sandstone is tough stuff. Guess that's why they build prisons out of it.

What tastes good tastes good no matter where it’s from.

Never been partial to fish out of a can or jar.

Could eat my weight in fried taters, beans and eggs though anytime.

Charlie that delicable pot of beans you cooked up is called Frijoles Charros, literally gaudy cowboy beans. That’s a state of Jalisco original dish. Multitude of delicatable variations almost all with some type of meat usually chorizo, bacon and or ham.

Yup, soaked. 24 hours.

BTW, after 4 hours the broth was amazing but at the end it had gained a little salt to it.

Should be awesome.

I am fat enough as it is.

You and me both Jim.

Lots of restraint over the years.

We some time get deer meat processed into summer sausage there as well.

It’s actually on the same country highway leading out of the valley to our long time deer hunting spots a few hours up into the mountains.

Thats great. Lots of places around here wont process wild game if they are a "commercial" outfit.

I might have to make a trip to the big Hereford steer someday.

There are so many friends and family I need to visit in California it aint even funny!

Well, from Palo Alto north anyway!

Just a hop skip and a jump from the Bay Area.

Wouldn’t doubt if some of them have made the trip to Lockford themselves or had one of their renowned Dakota brats from a local festival.

If you ever do decide to make it out this way give me a holler. Be glad to meet over a beer and meal my treat.

I’m sure other Fire Members out here would be up for a get together.

OK, new menu... I'm adding some bean salad of sorts.

Green beans, cannellini beans, corn, green onions, green chili's, jalapeño, celery, and some homemade vinegar and oil dressing. Right before serving myself, I think i'll dice up so avocado to add to the mixture.

Salmon, asparagus and flavored rice.

The salmon was POACHED........... (see what I did right there?)

Daughter works in the bakery deli of locally owned grocery store while off the summer from college.

She came home with fresh made deli sandwiches with mortadella, pastrami, salami, jack cheese on Dutch crunch bread. And some red potato, bacon and blue cheese salad.

[Linked Image]

You have been doing very well lately.

I have eaten nothing!

What did you put on them vegetables to make them eatable?

You on a diet Jim? Or a hunger strike till the rains come.

Olive oil and Montreal Steak seasoning then let them sit at room temp for an hour before grilling till just heated thru and good char marks on each side. Gotta get them great tasting cancer causing blackened grill marks.

That’s the oldest daughters thumbs up to the meal and the JD Pink Leamonade.

No, I have been sick.

I did not understand before.....Jack Daniels and a red beer.

Now that I know its Jack Daniels and pink lemonade.....I still dont understand!

It fits the "alcopop" category, like those hard lemonades and such.

When you have no beer, only lemonade and JD make a Lynchburg Lemonade.

Uhh....being as JD is my favorite whiskey...I am a bit of an expert on the matter.

And it is my conclusion that you needlessly added several steps.

Those days are long over for me.

At 13 a friend stole a bottle of his Dads JD and us getting a little sloshed with some buddy’s as a teen then riding our bikes to go see the Blues Brothers Movie opening weekend.

Wet blanket alert.

How do you drink it?

Me?

I like it out of a saucer, or a wine glass, or a pail, or a cupped hand or even right out of the bottle.

I drank a whole bottle one night at a wine tasting. Using one of the supplied wine glasses of course.

I was not into wine in those days.

Some gal walked up and asked what sort of wine I was drinking?

I gave her a sip and she got sick.

I never got invited back.

I was thinking more along the lines of straight, or with a bit of branch water, or with a mixer, or ...

Well, if we dont want the Bad old Days to come back I will take it with a splash of water.

If I have to be around other people I will drink a ditch. Whiskey, an ice cube and a splash of water.

Other wise I drink straight whiskey too fast and all you do is wait for the other folks to be ready for the next round.

So yes, I have to crap it up a bit with some ice and water or I will drink the whole bottle in a few minuets and get in a fight with the guy with the cheese and a wine glass.

JD is too raw for me as straight sipping whiskey. It's one I don't mind polluting with water and even ice.

I love it straight.

Single barrel straight is even better.

Granted....I have not tried some of the higher end whiskey you guys have.

The JD Single Barrel I've had was a whole 'nuther animal. It's been years since I had some, but I did enjoy it as straight sipping whiskey. They must've cherry picked the good barrels for it, and/or let it age a while longer than the regular release.

No sure about JD tasting raw, to me it’s a little sweet.

But I have gravitated to drinking Scotch Whiskey over the years when drinking it straight.

Last time I was downing bottles of JD and getting onery was at NASCAR in 2003 when it was still the Winston Cup. 4 days of Bacchanalia in the RV encampment with thousands of other fans.

That was when I was introduced to home made Apple Pie in a mason jar.

AP in a mason jar ? Ha ! Come visit but be forewarned that I like a touch of cinnamon in mine .

That's the thing, I enjoy non chill filtered, barrel proof Laphroaig straight, but JD is just too rough tasting.

I doubt I would enjoy the strong scotches.

I can drink Cutty Sark with a bit of water.

It's interesting how palates vary. In the Scotch world Cutty Sark is a blend on the weak end of the flavor spectrum.

Yes, no doubt that is why its for sale up here!

I have never had a real smokey scotch......I dont know for sure.

First time I drank beer I did not like it either.

trap last night we had beer and a quart jar of corn liquid ,lots of bubbles when I shook the mason jar,and it was smooth and nasty !

smooth and nasty ?????

I Have a hunting buddy who’s family is from West Virginia, multi generations is my understanding.

I live in a depressed area so it's bit different for me. Set your clock back 20 years. Mostly good folks .

He was there visiting family when the towers got hit. Took him and his family over a week to get back.

I have made some progress.

Had some Kraft Mac and Cheese and a Gorton's fish stick for lunch.

Kids favorite dinner during lent.

I tell ya, I have not been this sick for a long damn time.

Well, much better today anyway.

Think you need a Tennessee Toddy.

That and four Advil is good medicine.

Speaking of Whisky........the state store had Bulleit on sale today...since I like Bourbon and Rye I bought both.

As far as JD goes....I'll drink it with a splash (or two) if you're buying but if I'm buying I prefer 8yr Dickel for a Tennessee Whisky.

Scotch?...I don't know how it happened but I've never tasted it so I don't know if I like it or not.

And since this is still the food forum.....I'm finishing off some Great Northerns & Smoked Shank I pulled out of the freezer.....
Bulleit Rye for desert.

Looks good men, BLT's here tonight, McCain fries.

FG, I’d be more than happy to have you buy, especially if it’s Dickel.

Had to lookup McCain Fries. Should toss a coupla bags out to the mad dogs a few subforums up.

Left overs, cool tritip sandwiches to go long with the 105 degree day.

And I'd be happy to share some with you......maybe someday.

Just the facts, ma'am.

Feeling a little better.

Had an hurried up band practice this afternoon.

I was dreading it, but it turned out okay.

Just got home and cooked a couple hot Spam and cheese sandwiches.

By god after the week I have had.....they were fricking delicious!

Spam the State meat of Hawaii.

Lemme guess, French horn.

Haha! I guess you could have said tuba.

Used to play the tenor saxophone and piano.

Sadly now all I play is electric bass.

On a cooler NW Ontario day, chili, (BEANS). [Linked Image]

I’m gonna assume that chili powder bottle from the 1970’s gets refilled every so often.

Btw hard to beat a classic like chili beans and saltines. Followed up with a dose of high blood pressure scripts.

No FC, things last a long time when you only spend a few weeks a year here.
The pills also made the picture.

Elk tenderloin grilled over mesquite topped with chimichurri....
Broccoli crowns roasted with garlic and finished with lemon juice (best way to cook broccoli there is IMO...

Cooking this dish ATM for the first time. Just me and muttly so one pan / pot dishes fly very well in my galley. Smells great and I'm sure it will be a keeper. Green salad and red tater salad on the side. Ice cold milk.

HA!

Chicken and Green Beans over rice. I believe the sauce is some kind of garlic chunk fermented bean concoction with lots of cracked pepper. Oh it’s real good.

The other dish is Mongolian beef. I want to say the sauce is like a spicy hot egg foo young gravy with lots of onions and some shredded carrots.

Restaurant is a little mom and pop place literally run by a husband and wife team since the early 90’s. Wife and I ate there the first week they opened. Couple put their two daughters through private college with that little place.

That is a great looking Jambalaya and cooked in that pot reminds me of watching Justin Wilson the Cajun chef.

I have to say I’m going to have to go on a diet from this thread. I gained ten pounds just tonight looking at the skillet mushroom gravy pork chops, fried chicken with taters with gravy and the already aforementioned Jambalaya.

Good eats gentleman.

Wife threw some sirloin on the grill. Steamed broccoli, left over cheesy potatoes, and onions and mushrooms fried together.

Was heavenly.

The breading on that Pickerel is perfect......

I had Bangers and Mash with Peas again......I needed a gravy fix.

Grilled burgers last night.

Mixed ranch and pork n beans for a tasty mixture.

Saturday it was grilled jalapeno chicken sausage, ribeyes and twice baked stuffed potatoes. Yesterday it was marinated chicken thighs dusted with a seasoning blend, slow roasted in a BGE.

Just got done eating pork chops that were smothered in cream of mushroom soup and simmered for a couple hours. Mashed taters and green beans.

Chops were just as tender as if I had smothered them and put in the crockpot for 10 hours.

Tuna sandwiches.

Cheese burgers, fried onions, hot dogs, potato salad, calico beans and beers.

Well, beers since 10 this morning.

Fresh corn on the cob, picked today. Sweet, juicy, and tender.

Looked up calico beans. Filed in the have to make drawer.

Fried chicken, mashed spuds, mixed vegs. [Linked Image]

Nice looking chicken,Richard. I love to cook yardbird.

Imported chicken Denney! Hauled into Canada from the US!!!

Me? I’d take that drum stick and swipe it thru them taters and gravy before shoveling it in my mouth,

FC, I thought I saw a feller that looked a lot like you, just now up on the freak show.

I’m like a harlot when the cattle drives come to town. I jump from bed to bed quick like.

A legal Denney, does that take some fun out of it?

Dust dat chikken fer prints.

Anything I know about fried chicken I learned from my wife, the Cook.

Dirty Rice and fried summer squash.

I used my home grown sausage for the Dirty Rice. I don't know if it was the new recipe I followed this time or my sausage but it was my best batch ever......probably both.

The recipe was pretty close to what I normally do except for deglazing the pan with Worchestershire Sauce and using almost twice as much liquid as I do...it's a keeper.

https://www.melissassouthernstylekitchen.com/cajun-dirty-rice/

As a side note while I was killing time cruising the net and looking at Dirty Rice recipes today I was surprised to see how many omit the chicken livers. I figure it's the same folks that don't put Okra in gumbo......poor confused bastards.....ya gotta feel sorry for em.

Your such a reactionary FG.

Learnt that from McClintock as a kid.

Grilled salmon and corn on the cob.

Tonight ? Plain ol' hot dogs. A little bummed as I had such high hopes for my sous vide pork loin from the other night. Took a whole pork loin and cut it into 2 ish pound hunks and into the bath @ 140 for 5 hrs. and then onto a hot charcoal grill. Instead the meat was mushy with no real texture or flavor and never made it over the coals.. All the bags in the freezer now but I'm tempted to pitch 'em all into the garbage. Suggestions ?

Gave muttly a good sized chunk tonight to gnaw on and he just didn't seem to be very impressed . That bad ?

Depends, but maybe a chili con carne for the save?

So, Deb & I spent a 4 day long weekend, camping at Blue Lake Provincial park.

Arrived & set up Thursday night, after work, so simple fare for dinner.

[Linked Image]

Friday night was marinated & grilled sirloin "minute" steaks, pan fried new baby taters, sautéed onions & mushrooms & spinach, avocado & grape tomato salad.

Marinade was a smoky chipotle base.

[Linked Image]

Saturday lunch "special" !!

[Linked Image]

Some of the libations !

[Linked Image]

Saturday evening meal - Huli Huli bone in, skin on Chicken thighs & unsweetened pineapple rings on the grill + salad.

[Linked Image]

AWESOME !!

Sunday morning !

[Linked Image]

Don't know what you guys would call it, but in Australia, it is a traditional bush bread, called Damper !

Love it !

Sunday Lunch - Deer burgers & fixins !

[Linked Image]

Sunday night meal was marinated (same smoky chipotle base, + the addition of the unsweetened pineapple juice) & grilled, local pork chops, grilled pineapple, baked beans, last of the baby taters & spinach salad.

[Linked Image]

It didn't suck either !

DONE !

WOW! Paul, if you get to our humble shack, it'll seem like a small bag of stale chips!

No way Richard,

Food experience is all about sharing company & nourishment !!

See you tonight, & we'll test that theory !

Aiming for 6:30, as long as we both get out of work at a reasonable time !

Looks fantastic gentlemen.

Richard on the right ?

You. and Deb, are most welcome Paul. We should have done that sooner. Maybe next time we can bag some walleye/pickerel, and do them up?
FC, I just pull my baggy pants high so my belly don't hang over so much.

Yep, that sounds like a plan Richard !

Can't remember if I mentioned it last night, the "smokies" (sausages) are deer Jalapeno Cheddar & the bag of deer burger is cut with 25% pork shoulder.

Hope you enjoy !

Boy....youse guys are really roughing it!

Paul, could I have your recipe for "damper"?

Cheers Jimbo;

https://samskitchen.com.au/recipe/golden-syrup-damper/

Can't get self raising flour here, so I'm "pretty sure" Deb uses 3 cups of plain flour & 6 tsp of baking powder, as an alternative.

Conversion should be readily available on-line.

Yep, 2tsp baking powder per cup of plain flour;

Something else to use the golden syrup in !

Found these 2 fairly quickly on-line, I'll check Deb's recipe book when I get home.

Oh yes. My father in law is here now and brought a tin of ANZAC biscuits.

I love those things.

Poutine, and 7-11 chicken at friend's place.

Pork butt. Cool smoked with apple then finished with an Anova water cooker.. amazing . I personally don’t like to pull it, just grab a chunk and naw on it.

Weight of butt, time & temp on the Anova, please . Thanks, 284.

This was only my second attempt with the anova.. so I just guessed. I covered it in yellow mustard then a thick coat of emeril’s rib rub, then put it on a hot Weber grill and charred it a little,moved it off to the side of the coals for 2 hours of smoke at an average temp of 150.

Then I did 40 hours at 155 with the anova . I don’t know if that long of cook time is necessary but it turned out excellent.. I can’t believe I cooked it.

I read that 145 is the temp for steak like firmness, 165 for pulled so I just went in between at 155. Not traditional butt, but I’ll be doing it the same way again.

Forgot 8 pound boneless

Grilled lemon dill steelhead (caught yesterday), cheesy potatoes, with garlic and mushroom green beans. Delicious!

A long drive back to Iowa today, supper tonight. [Linked Image]

Is that a Taco Salad Pizza?

Don’t get much more Kommiefornia than that.

FC, one taco, one sausage, the taco was four bucks higher.

Pizza!

After gettin' up at 4:20, and driving fourteen hours, it beats cookin'!

Smoked stuffed mushrooms and smoked/Sous vide leg of lamb .

Just damn.

wow that looks good!

tonight I baked a rack of baby back ribs, boiled fresh corn on the cob, boiled smoked turkey necks with cabbage once the necks were tender, corn bread, baked beans

no dessert -:(

Lima beans and Ham.....it's not really bean weather but I love beans like I love grits or sausage so I made em anyway.
I was gonna make cornbread too but it's too hot to turn on the oven so I'll have to soldier on without it.

[Linked Image]

Nothin' wrong with soup Charlie. Looks good.

Brisket sandwich, and chips, burned popcorn for desert here.

Should be seeing fava beans real soon at the farmers markets. I bet that would taste great with them.

Leftovers from last night, grilled hamburger patties, corn on the cob and ranch baked bean mixture.

Marion Berry ice cream in a jumbo cone for dessert

I've never eaten Fava beans....they scare me.

They are okay with a little Chianti.

I like it for it's convenience for sure !

Mine is the digital version & I love the way I can set temp & rely on it to keep +/- 10*, for as long as I set the timer for.

I don't like the smoke from the pucks, as much as "normal smoke wood" smoke !

Ribs, chickens, pork tenderloins, salmon have all been good.

I've now done 2 brisket halves in it, that haven't been as good as I'm used to !

I should also mention that I bought it used (3 times) & with a hockey puck dent in the door, for $150 clams !

Aside from the great buy it sounds as though you have a few reservations overall.

No, not really Denny, it's great (almost perfect) for set it & forget applications, as I listed above.

='s short cook time stuff.

I think I'll got back to my charcoal smoker, for long & low stuff, like the brisket/s I mentioned.

Part of the fun of smoking, is tending to it ! Does that make sense ?

Maybe it was $28....that's a good deal though.....it's a bean cooking SOB...you'll love it

Not dinner, but I saw Fat City put up some pics of breakfast rolls so here goes:

From scratch, mixed berry, sourdough, whole wheat, rye, 7 grain cereal pancakes for breakfast.

We make a lot of our own bread and when I start up the sourdough there's always leftover from making the bread and putting the next batch aside.................so I make pancakes!

I like pancakes like FG Charlie likes his beans. Most I ever recall eating was 14 about that size while hiking with Explorer Scouts in the Sierras......when I was 17 maybe. I'm no longer good for that many but my stomach sometimes says Try It, maybe you can do it again.

Four was enough this morning.

Geno

I’ve eaten pancakes for Dinner more times than I can count. Those Lodge round griddles are nice and handy aren’t they.

Ha! Never thought of that.

Took it easy and had a store bought dinner.

Pizza place in town. Not too bad.

Not many choices left in town.

The gas station is hit or miss....some of the bars have finger food and frozen pizzas.

The one restaurant never has any customers because of the quality.

The pizza place is okay. The deli side is no f'ing good though.

So, yes. One choice.

Seems like best place to eat around those parts is at your house or your parents based on what I’ve seen.

Haha! Yeah, that's about right.

I wasn’t joking either. You folks dish up some good grub.

I use them "mostly" as a comal for tortillas. Dang near daily. Well, mostly the slightly older one on the left, I like the handle better. The one on the right has a more curved handle that's slightly longer, but it makes it feel heavier to my arthritic wrists. I never thought of biscuits on them.........but I will now!

Tonight was white rice, locally grown wild rice, some of our homegrown chicken that was bbq'd recently, topped with some tasty mango chutney my wife makes. Now for some melon for desert.

Geno

Lunch today.

Mexican style Shrimp cocktail.

1 Qt Clamato, 2lbs shrimp, Bermuda onion (red), celery (some people like cucumber in theirs I HATE cucumbers), cilantro. Spices to taste. I add garlic, hot sauce, and a couple of fresh squeezed limes.

Make sure that the Clamato is chilled. Dice up the onion, celery, and cilantro (I use the stems). Let chill in refrigerator. Cook the ship, DON'T OVER DO IT. Chill and peel. Dice them up into nice sized chunks
and add to above mixture. Sometimes I add fresh octopus or squid also. Pretty good with a slice or two of avocado. Some like to add diced tomatoes too.

Mighty refreshing and tasty too.

Picture I borrowed from the internet.

Fish boil tonight. Fresh Lake Michigan whitefish, taters, onions, sweet corn, kosher salt, and some melted butter. Fam loved it.

Wife put an arm roast in the crock pot this morning.

Later she put some onion soup mix on it.

Mashed potatoes, boiled carrots and a kind of beef/onion soup juice.

Very good. We dont usually use a crock pot, but it sure turned out good today.

I could eat more when I was a younger man. All you good folks enjoy. A little munchin' on some cheese tonight.

Last night was a proper spinach salad after a trip to the farmers market. I was darn good. Tonight will be grilled burgers and a broccoli/cauliflower salad.

Due to the work load for show prep and being down one person we got a Papua Murphy chicken Alfredo pizza and then I added stuff from our garden as well as extra cheese. Of course it should go without saying that super thing (almost cracker like) is the best crust.

Nights have been pretty busy at the Kulas Compound. Lots of product to crank out. Some nights, and improved upon pizza is the fastest route back to the Manufacturing floor.

Tomorrow night a new potential client wants to wine and dine me to see if he can convince me to bring his ideas to life for some hunting gear.

I don't need another client but he is persistent.

Maybe you could 3D print those [bleep] smokers and sell em at hearth and plow to all those metro sexual hipster?

No, Its always hunting stuff clients want designed. Mostly bowhunting stuff. Rapid prototyping is only a part of what I do. Design, drawings, life testing, packaging design and other value added aspects of bringing a design to life.

Geno, it's pretty simple.

Scramble eggs in a pan (I used 3). Add a table spoon or so of butter. when melted, add a table spoon of flour. Cook the flour for a few minutes. Add milk, and you have Egg Gravy. Season liberally with fresh ground black pepper.

Sometimes I add a little onion and garlic powder.

Put over biscuits etc. I used toast because I did not want to heat the house up making biscuits in the oven.

Grilled venison back straps & mixed grilled vege + garden salad, for 10 at our place last night !

Maybe a beer or 2.

Then, mixed berry cobbler & vanilla ice cream to finish off.

Beef tips and rice tonight

Wife made spaghetti.

Had a lettuce salad.

Only had store bought dressing, I like to mix sweet French and Blue cheese together.

Interesting combo Jim.

For some reason reminds me of Seven Seas Green Goddess salad dressing.

My dear wife made pork wontons and fried cauliflower rice. All was great. The day after tomorrow I will make Wanton soup with the remains.

Last night got late, popcorn.

Left over, jalapeno cheddar deer smokies, from fridge to cutting board, cut into rings, Havarti cheese & bread & butter pickles.

Poor man's "horsesdouvers" !!

Jack & coke.

All good.

Cheeseburgers on gas grill, potato chips.

Stir-fried shrimp with green onion, celery, garlic, butter, and mushrooms.

Leftovers. Everyone gone.

Heated can of Rosarita retried beans, mixed with left over carnitas spooned into small flour tortillas. Topped with cheese and Tapatio.

Side of ice cold Sam Adams.

Mango popcicle for dessert.

A fellow can't eat a feast every night.

Truer words Mr. Wabi.

Taco's been eating so much corn and garden since I got home from china I have the scours

Tacos do not sound like much improvement. McCormick taco spice, and me do not get along.

miss Mexican food the most while traveling. My taco's are made with Iowa venison, shredded cheese, flour tortillas, garden tomatoes, chopped sweet onion, and homemade salsa. No package seasoning

Had some left over rockfish. Made some pan fried fish cakes and a salad.

share a recipe???

About 15 years ago before we were married the wife cooked tacos. I took one bite and “WTF IS THAT?” She says, she says I bought Taco Bell taco seasoning...just for something different..

It all almost ended right there...

Adjust to your liking.

How we’ve been doing it for a few decades

Three or four tablespoons of California Chile, New Mexico Chile powder or whatever red chile powder you can get your hands on, tablespoon of cumin, tablespoon each of garlic and onion powder, salt and pepper to taste for two lbs of ground beef browned with onions.

After browning meat and onions toss in spices mix up let cook on med heat until you can smell the Smokey aroma of the chile powder releasing its oils, dump in a cup of hot water and let simmer until the water mostly evaporates and is absorbed by the meat. Stir a few times while it’s simmering to ensure it all gets evenly distributed and incorporated.

Add and subtract to your liking.

Currently what’s in the spice roundabout

[Linked Image]

First corn of the summer, salad and grilled shrimp skewers. Life is good down on the farm.

I like the corn tray.

I am looking forward to our corn, I hope we beat the coons to it!

Did another pork shoulder planning on a bunch of drunk company . All went well

Last night, I cooked up the rest of the Antelope I thawed out. Fajitas this time, with rice and beans.

These were for her roasted poblano pepper lasagne.

Looks like a great recipe Charlie.

Tonight's was some sort of meatloaf my wife does in the crock pot. Too hot for oven stuff. And we bought a bunch of beets yesterday at the farmers market and she made Harvard Beets with them. First time I ever had them.

Yesterday she made some rhubarb/strawberry soup, which is served cold and it was very good. From the Betty Crocker cookbook. Rhubarb came from our plants, about the only thing we've got ready so far.

Yea...it was good Geno....the Balsamic Vinegar adds a nice little zing.
I didn't have any White Balsamic but the dark stuff didn't seem to hurt anything.

PS....the "cook for 10 minutes" part is either a typo or someone that likes raw potato's and beans.

Well, I can eat green beans raw, actually prefer them right from the bush. But a dish with them and taters?

Geno

I love how dark those Canadian Walleyes get!

Nice Jim !

Did you check out my link, on your thread ?

I did a half NY Strip, like that the weekend before last.

My gut was screaming at me, "don't do it", it's for cooking hard & fast, but it was what my brother wanted, for our visiting 'lations.

Turned out fine, just different to "normal" NY strip steaks.

I haven't checked out the link yet. I'll have to do that at home. Thanks for posting it.

Exactly

The plan here is rib steak, not ribeye's, rib steak, salad, an ear of corn, toast.

Our son has my camera, close your eyes, and picture it.

Of which thread do you speak?

Hi Jim,

Was referring to Rooster7(Jim), & his smoked eye of round thread.

Henceforth, you will be known as the big Kiwi, in honour of your lovely wife & family.

That, & to avoid confusion !

Let it be known;

That to further avoid the mass confusion that has ensued in this wonderful thread, due to 2 sets of parents, naming their children the same, I will continue to call Rooster7(Jim), Big chicken !

The Big Kiwi (Jim),

Loved ya spachcaack too !

I think you should go with Big Cock and Little Jim as sobriquets.

Fatz,

Always remember, I'm a nice guy !

No doubt, all meant in good spirit.

Don' call me late fer supper!

Ed let me check back to when I posted these pics I think I posted it then if not I’ll talk to the Chief and get it out.

Great. Thanks.

Still waiting Ed. Might be awhile. I can tell you how I roast the peppers and seal them in a bowl under plastic wrap and then peel them. But that’s all she’ll let me do. It’s the home made chile relleno sauce and fluffy batter topping that I don’t know anything about, on purpose.

No one eat dinner tonight? Sheesh.

BBQ chicken thighs and grilled halves of cauliflower. Fresh lime squeezed over both during cooking.

I finished off the last of that Green Bean Potato Bacon concoction.

It's hard to find recipes for one so I end up eating a lot of leftovers.
Fortunately most dishes are better the second day and I get the added benefit of only having to cook dinner every 3-4 days.

Onward Christian Soldiers....

Last night was salmon patties. They were great !

Since I fugged up and didn’t take pics last night. Here’s breakfast. Chicken, bell peppers, chives and cheddar cheese with torts and avocado. 16 oz side of don’t fuqk with me.

We had kind of a slow morning so the wife cooked bacon and eggs.

Smoked Wings

We were in the big town for the wife's chiropractor visit so we had dinner at the Pizza Hut.

I thought I had used up all of last year's antelope but found one last package in the back of the freezer this weekend. Marinated it in a bit of teriyaki then smoked it for a few hours, way off the heat so it barely hit 130 degrees and then cooled it and put it in the fridge. I also had some fresh picked squash and corn and a ripe avocado, so I grilled the squash and corn, made some quick guac and put it all with thinly sliced smoked lope on corn tortillas with a generous hit of Cholula.

As much as I like seared antelope, it was much better than I expected smoked.

Your sausage? I can smell that all the way over here.

Yep.....it's very similar to Bratwurst but this is all pork where all of the Bratwurst recipes I've seen call for 20% - 25% beef or veal. A lot of them call for a binder like an egg and/or some powdered milk too.

I'm getting my courage up to try making some Boudin pretty soon...I have all the makings on hand now.
I'll make a thread....keep an eye out for it.

Anxiously awaiting the outcome. I had some Boudin years ago at one of the 24HCF pig hunts that Pat provided as well as grilled. Darn good stuff !!!

Might dig out my grinder.

Yea....from what I've read the traditional way to prepare Boudin is to poach it but they say it can also be grilled or even smoked.

My understanding that it's cooked (poached ?) prior to being stuffed into the casing so it is in fact a "cooked " sausage. The grilling part is an extra process and darn good ta boot.

Yea....everything is cooked prior to stuffing the cases but a lot of recipes say to poach it afterward. Some mention grilling or smoking too but they all say the traditional way is to poach.

Here's a couple of examples.....

https://www.saveur.com/article/Recipes/Boudin

https://www.homesicktexan.com/2011/01/boudin-recipe-boudain.html

I like the idea of grilling or smoking too....I'll experiment.

BTW......those are some big Boudin's.....I like that idea. I think I'll make about half of mine that big. The rest I'll make smaller and have em for breakfast. I read that they're good with fried eggs.

Red Chile Chicken Enchilada Casserole

Free Pizza!!!

Our local market has a points type card. Someone pointed out to use that we could use it for different things besides just a percentage off an order. We decided on a pizza at the local Eyetalian place.

1 topping pizza, wife wanted pepperoni. For such a small burg here the pizza (and their Italian food) isn't too bad. But I'm glad we didn't have to pay for it. Nearly $20 if we had to pay, for a large pizza! I'm too old for those kind of prices.

Tilamook makes some good cheese. It's about all I buy.

Smoked a pork butt and rendered the fat. Athe too many cracklings

Originally Posted by FieldGrade

And their ice cream? It’s all we buy.

The cheese is about the best for the basic cheddar and Monterey Jack. We buy cheese from Costco and there are some incredible cheeses available from around the world that I never have bought 20+ years ago because of the pricing. Costco’s purchasing power has made an incredible amount of those cheeses a better value at least occasionally.

I'm pretty much a sharp cheddar and crackers (or grits) guy although I do like their pepper jack too.
I buy fancy cheese at the deli once in a while if a recipe calls for it but other than that I'm not much of a cheese connoisseur.
I do know that Tilamook's extra sharp cheddar is the best cheddar I've ever had though.

And while I haven't eaten ice cream in over a decade.....yes.....theirs is great.

Sure....I like lots of veggies so I double up on what the recipe calls for and it goes without saying that I ignore the part about dumping out the bacon grease. Cook the bacon and then saute the veggies in the bacon grease..

I also like mine with a splash of hot sauce but to each his own.

Got tired of it real quick.................I think the tug companies up there own stock in it..............the deckhands used it on everything.............probably in the pancakes even............... and they haven't a clue about how salty stuff is so they just add more before they serve it.

A lite sprinkle I could probably handle now since it's been a year and half, almost two since I was on the barges. But it kinda brings back bad memories. They didn't seem to get the concept one could always add some at the table, but not the other way around.

I use this mixed with Byron's butt rub as a rub on pork butts. You have to go easy on the Alpine though or it will over power the other stuff.

Well, I might just have to check that stuff out. I'm heading to Flagstaff in Oct for a hunt , my bro lives there, and they have a Sam's Club. The internet search says Sam's sells 32 oz containers of it............should last me until they plant me or throw me over to play with the fishes.

Your gastronomic quotient is increasing in orders of magnitude.

Pretty soon your gonna make the leap to that style of chorizo you so fondly reminisce.

This morning's breakfast.

Eggs # 2 & 3 from the chicks we got in March..................finally! Dang it seems like I've fed them things an awful lot of dollars.

Egg# 1 I found cleaning out under their coop, which sits on some treated skids with clearance under the floor. They've been getting under there since they were small and use it alot at this time of year as it's cool under there. No more, I fixed that with a couple of boards but left a gap for air circulation. After finding the egg I set it on one of the fence boards (down low) and took a tub of dirty litter over to the compost pile. Came back and the little f'rs were eating it, just some shell left which I pulled away from the rooster and a hen. Don't want them in the habit of eating eggs.

Wife found # 2 yesterday while I was up in the mountains camping, I found another this morning. And a soft shell, probably the first egg from one of the other girls. 8 hens so I hope to get about a half dozen a day average.

With some cheap Dutch canned ham and homemade pumpernickel bread (fried in the ham grease!) and one of them eggs was a twin!

They were yummy, the girls did good. Now to get them the electric "pasture" fence so the can roam a bit.

That reminds me, I need to find a good carniceria or a recipe for chorizo like I used to get in a suburb of San Diego. I came loose like country style breakfast sausage.

I did find a decent taco truck for lunch in K Falls today. First thing I do is look at the menu, is it all gringo stuff or do they have cabeza and lengua. I got a taco of each today and they were yummy.

One "disappeared" (the cabeza) before I took a pic:

If they build that wall, just don't send all the taco folks back..........please!

After the 8 juniper fence posts, roll of 36" tall 1/2" hardware cloth, roll of 48" tall 1" poultry mesh, the coop I bought already built from the local Mennonites, nails. fence staples, my time etc, these eggs are................................................

about as cost effective as out of state turkey (or javelina, deer, etc) hunting !

Geno

PS, I forgot about the cost of the dang chicks in the first place, and the fiver I gave the Mennonite kid for the rooster!

Big smile here. Laughing with ya. I think.

More leftover Brisket and steamed cabbage for lunch.

IIRC Geno, 5 months is typical for hens to be mature enough to lay eggs.

Add heaters for the hens and to keep water from freezing and lights for diurnal cycle, all at cold temps, and eggs get spendy!

Edited to add we don't use ground beef anymore and haven't for many years. I think this ground batch is 5-8 percent fat.

Edited to add we don't use ground beef anymore and haven't for many years. I think this ground batch is 5-8 percent fat.

Yup, reads like a recipe for engorgement.

I’d probably delete the fruit and add a panade for moisture givin using 100% game meat.

Bueno amigo think I just found a new camp meal if game meat is still in my freezer from the previous season.

Had neighbors over last night. I made a pile of carnitas and a pot of charro beans. Washed down with Hite beer. Pretty damn good.

Trust me, it adds that tiny bit of sweetness, a tiny bit, that makes it all come together. Im not a dried fruit guy but I very much prefer it with the fruit in. I forgot the binder, bit of panko or if we are out, oats...

And it's never dry either using the above. Never. Make them at least twice a month...

Gotcha, I’ll try it with craisins if I don’t end up with tag soup this fall. Yup panko is a good panade filler.

That was the first place I looked......I even looked in the cereal aisle.

Chicken skillet - grilled or roasted whole chicken thighs, simmered in basil, roasted red peppers, tomatoes, garlic, salt and pepper. Served with cheesy garlic bread and roasted sweet potatoes. Simple, rustic, healthy, stuff your face worthy....

Dinner tonight:

Cold flaked salmon, quinoa, tomato and avocado salad with a EVOO balsamic vinaigrette. Also portobello mushroom and parm cheese ravioli tossed in a little EVOO and lemon juice. Pictures will follow tonight.

Last night: HALF-POUND (before cooking over mesquite coals) half venison/half beef chuck patties for cheeseburgers with home-sliced steak fries (that were cooked in chicken grease), with tomatoes, sliced onions, hot peppers & served with cold beer. = WONDERFUL but all of the "eaters" overindulged.
(I don't often eat "stuff between slices of bread" or buns - It's one of my quirks BUT when I'm in the mood for a cheeseburger, I want it BIG, cooked medium-rare over live coals & homemade.)

yours, tex

Hamburg steak, lime beans, cottage cheese and some sliced tomatoes. Washed down w a big cold glass of water from a big glass jar I keep in the fridge.

Sheppard's pie, dark rye bread, apple pie, at friend's home. Indescribly delicious.

Been in the high 90's....and headed above 100.

So we went to town and bought a camp stove.

Nice three burner unit. No need to cook anything inside now.

Boiled potatoes, beans and grilled marinated salmon.

Was well received.

What Big Jim is not telling us here is that pot with the spuds in it, is the size of a turkey fryer!

Modern Outdoor propane accessories. Gotta lovem.

Now you're cooking with gas Jim. I have the two burner version out on my deck.

The hibachi occupies half of it but but one burner and the little grill is plenty for my needs.

Nice setups fellas.

Lodge hibachi, of course.

Weather man says its 98 right now.

Supposed to be 106 tomorrow.

Good reason to cook outside!

I have a small Weber Kettle too, they both have their jobs but I really like that little hibachi.

Lastime I was in the vicinity of any habitchi in use it must have been the late 70’s probably at a relative that lived in an apartment grilling on the balcony with Staying Alive playing in the background.

Smoky Joes with the handles are slick. Had one especially for tailgating at Raider Games 20 years ago. Got stolen during the game or maybe got used as a football. Hard to remember after those parties.

To be sure that Lodge is a Hibachi is version upgrade 100.0

Tonight, my wife did oven fried chicken, imported, boiled potatoes, Manitoba Reds, tomatoes, imported.

Tonight. Pickled red beet egg sammies.(I couldn't wait.) Ice cold milk.

Panko crusted walleye tacos, coleslaw & Deb's secret sauce !

Leftover Water buff lasagna and green beans.

Rotisserie chicken tacos.

With Johnny’s Adobe Tequila Sauce.

Costco was clearancing the jugs out for $3.99. It is so damn good I’m heading back tomorrow to see if I can pick up a few more.

Really enjoying this outdoor kitchen we set up.

Beer can chicken we had yesterday.

Bought a fancy thermometer you can use in the grill. Very handy.

With the left over chicken the wife made chicken nachos. No picture of that. Was consumed too quickly!

Cooked of course on the the grill.

Lots of elbow room for big dudes.

Is that the McCormicks Mesquite grill mates seasoning you put on them chickens? Saw it on sale at Costco thinking about getting a bottle.

It is McCormick but not mesquite.

Its called Sweet and Smokey.

Ironbender posted about something like this a while back.....but could not remember which variety of rub he used.

I thought it was the Sweet and Smokey so I bought some. Its got some cinnamon in it.

Family really liked it.

I would sure try the mesquite though if I found some. I like most of their stuff.

Probably keep and eye out too for that Adobo sauce you found at Costco. No idea where I might find a Costco....but I will see if its on line.

Copy That.

Edit

Johnny’s has it on their site.

Cool. Thanks. I will take a look....sure sounds good.

Interesting FC,

I was going to comment that we have 2 stores here, the 4 Corners Mkt and a Holiday, good luck finding that here, but we actually have that stuff here! Matter of fact I just bought a package of their Hot Italian the other day. Was looking for ham hocks or some good looking bacon to go with some collards and beet greens, no luck so I said heck, I'll make some Italian style greens instead.....

Didn't get to that yet, my plans were for tomorrow, but we went over the hill to the farmers mkt in Cedarville today and one of the local folks had hocks, more Italian sausage, and grass fed beef liver so I get to make greens and hocks tomorrow! And liver for me and the four legged kids! I told the wife I might do it for breakfast and stink up the whole house for the day..................... made her really happy..............Not!

Thanks, I'll look for their chorizo. If we don't have it in one of the markets I'll see if they can order some. Should go good with the expensive eggs I hope to get soon.

Thanks ib,

Yeah, my feed store guy told me mid Aug before they get going much. Found another one last night outside the coop when I closed them in for the night. Nothing I could find today. They are sure making some laying type noises lately.

No power out there so I'm not going to do the light thing, of course we'll have more light than you folks so I may get a few more without the lights than you folks would. Going to have to figure out a water deal for them, maybe look for a solar water dish?

I added protein to their diet today. found two of these on my cherry tomato plant:

My big camp stove is a Camp Chef Explorer three burner. So far I have been very pleased with it.

It has a big pot of potatoes boiling in 5 mins.

I also have a Bayou Classic turkey fryer that works good for big pots.

Thanks Jim,

Geno

You can even cook breakfast on it.

This morning.....

[Linked Image]

Geno.......my two burner is also a Camp Chef and I also have a Turkey Fryer....I use it to boil and wax traps.

If you do get a Camp Chef (I would if I were you) get the cover too......it's worth the coin.

Yup the cover that doubles as a wind screen is worth it.

You could also try and find one of these old natural gas burners from the 1940’s and convert it like we did to propane.

This was a good breakfast.

[Linked Image]

Thanks guys

Jim, is that a RevereWare pan on the left with the sausage? If so, my second favorite pans after cast iron.

FC, I doubt I'll ever run across one of those old burners, but up here in the Old West, one never knows.

Charlie, thanks. I'll be keeping m y eyes open for "end of season" sales. Once the weather turns the stores will be trying to get rid of outdoor products so they can put the Christmas goodies out after Labor Day.

Local grass fed beef liver from our farmers market, onions from the garden. Liver was dredged in flour, dipped in beaten egg/milk, then covered with Progresso Italian Style bread crumbs. And because I was cooking, not someone behind a hash house counter it wasn't overcooked either.

And the final product

next years garden will have new potatoes for dinners like this.

Geno

That liver sure looks better than the stuff that comes out of that little tub you get at the super market.

Good luck with your Camp Chef quest. You won't regret buying one.

You probably didn't recognize it for what it was because I had the cover on but you were setting right next to that stove when you were here last year.

Oh, it was SO much better than the mass production frozen in the tub liver Charlie. I rarely eat liver anymore since they started doing that. I liked looking at the slices in the meat case before I bought it way back in the olden days.

Even though the rancher had it frozen, likely for transport from the butcher and for storage, when it thawed out it looked as much like fresh liver as I had ever seen. And tasted wonderful.

I probably saw your stove then but didn't inquire about it as I was not in the market then, living in the RV and what not. Now that I'm in an electric cooking environment, having a larger back up propane unit sounds reasonable. I miss the gas stove in the RV, but I don't miss the cramped nature of trailer park living.

It was my youngest sons 20th birthday today. We started with grilled linguica as we killed time to get the coals hot. He grilled fresh steelhead and asparagus over the coals whilst I pan seared scallops that I drizzled with a Balsamic reduction on the stove top along with rice pilaf. Dessert was a cherry pie his GF made pitting fresh cherries and rolling them into a proper crust that took two days to get right. The meal, in its entirety, was nutz.

We need a thumbs up emoji here Ed,

I'd give that post at least two, one for the meal, and one for sharing time with your kid.

Talk to me about the Rouladen and mushroom gravy receipe.
Beef Rouladen is a favorite here, and requested almost every time we ask "what do you want for supper".

Stuffed peppers for birthday supper only the wife stuffed huge jalapeño peppers instead of bell peppers. It was damn fine.

Ground Axis, mushroom, pepperoni, canadian bacon, and jalapeno pizza.

Bet that was Gooood Johnny !!

Simple & delicious !

Fried fish (used a little teriyaki and it was good) with flavored rice and fresh green beans.

Most people I find that don't like liver and onions have almost ALWAYS had it overcooked.

Venison liver at 8000' is always a treat. Everything taste better with the smell of pine trees in the air.

Grilled sausages, squash, sautéed onions and mushroom. And of course tomato.

Venison Sliders !

Yep, they were goooood !

St Louis style ribs and Mac & Cheese I did on the smoker with potato salad that the wife made this morning. Also made plates for my wife's mother and both of my parents. They are all in their 80's and anytime I smoke something we take them plates also.

Beef Rouladen is a favorite here, and requested almost every time we ask "what do you want for supper".

Pretty standard. Took a pork loin, sliced it thin, put Dusseldorf Mustard all over one side, a dill pickle, and rolled it up. Skeward with a tooth pick, fried in butter.
When they were done, added fresh mushrooms and a few onions to the pan with a little more butter. Then added some flour to make a roux. Added some beef'
stock, a little pepper, some allspice and parsley.

How about you, how do you make your beef rouladen ?

Either pound round steak 1/4" thick, or buy the trnderized cube steak from the butcher.
We usually skip mustard, lay in the kosher pickle spear, and roll.
When it is almost completely rolled, tuck a thick bacon slice in, and continue rolling the bacon around the roll.
Pin it with tooth picks.
Brown, remove from pan, saute some onions, deglaze with beef stock, (red wine would be good also, need to try it sometime).
Normal salt, pepper, and savory. Return rolls, simmer about an hour. Thicken juice with corn starch.

Be easy enough to use your roux and make gravy before returning the rolls.

The savory makes the gravy special.
We are gravy eaters, and this is one of three gravy recipes that my family absolutely love.

Gonna scorch some scallops again tonite.

See previous scallop posts for pics. Will look the same and be just as damn tasty!

Bacon, lettuce, and garden tomato sandwiches, garden cucumbers with some green onions cut into them and seasoned with salt and pepper.

Quesadillas too good. Made them again....

I miss my mother-in-law's tortillas. While I lived around her in the Colorado high country they were always perfect.. always. Made on a coal stove and the ones not eaten immediately were wrapped in a cloth... if they lasted that long. She couldn't really tell you how to make them with precision but she could show you. Hand full of this and a pinch or two of that and there you go. Perfect. No telling how many thousands she made through the years. Had my wife Mercy lived she might have gotten to the level of her mother. Miss you Teresa.

Thanks.....the Boudin came out great.

I used this recipe cept I used three cups of cooked rice instead of two simply because that's how much the cup of rice I cooked made. I like rice though so no harm.
Next time I'll use more Chicken Liver.....the liver taste kind of got lost with all the seasonings.

https://www.homesicktexan.com/2011/01/boudin-recipe-boudain.html

Can’t go wrong with more chicken liver.

Got sick on rumaki as a teen at a family Christmas dinner party. Ate too much and snuck too much wine.

BTW looks like your getting pretty good the stuffing part.

Yea.....I'm learning. Coiling them up by simply putting them on a plate and rotating the plate as they come out helps. I only got one out of shape spot in those two coils. Turns out that stuffing sausage is a tricky business. Ha

My next endeavor will be "Hunters Sausage. How can I not make a sausage that has Bacon and Beer in it?

Most of the recipe's I've seen say you can stuff it or roll it in cracker crumbs and deep fry them to make "Boudin Balls"
I just took a shortcut and did a patty in a skillet. If the links are even half that good I'll be happy.
I've also read that poaching the links is traditional but they can also be grilled or smoked which makes sense because they're already cooked so you're basically just warming them up.

I've got 3 coonasses that hunt whitetails with me. They always bring some, and they usually throw it on the grill. It is really good that way for sure.

Thank you sir. Didn't know if you or mama made them from scratch, cornmeal and such. Or bought pre-mixed masa from the local tienda. We don't have them here.

I think I can find the Masa Harina in our market though, as we have some migrants up here working in the farming/ranching community.

Pretty sure we still have a press too, I was never able to master the slapping technique!

Oh, nothing fancy tonight. My wife made a "pizza" on one of those premade crust thingies, with some olive oil, spinach, garlic and sun dried tomatoes. I cooked up an artichoke from my garden and ate that with a 50:50 mix of mayo and balsamic, and for dessert my wife made a plum cobbler type thing with plums from the church ladies trees.

I'm a happy man.

But some of that boudin sure would have tasted good on that pizza!

Sorry for the delay Ed.

I have to apologize as it was not an actual Salisbury steak.....it was round steak. My wife straightened me out on that one.

2 one or two pound round steaks

2 tbs steak season

can cream of mushroom

cup sour cream

can of french onion soup or onion soup mix

4 ozs fresh mushrooms sliced

cup chicken or beef broth

half box pasta or one box wild rice (cooked)

Rub the steak with the seasoning and mix together all other ingredients( not the pasta or rice)

spread the mixture on the steaks and then pile everything in the crock pot.

low for 8 hours or high for 4

serve over rice or pasta....we used pasta. Curly egg noodles.

Thanks Jim.

Grilled steaks and eggplant (from the garden). Not in the picture, a few small artichokes from the garden, from the side shoots after eating the main flower a few weeks ago. My first attempt at them up here, they have to be grown as annuals and started indoors early. Quite a change from having fights with the wild ones growing in SoCal when we were kids.

I think I'l have a bowl of Ice Cream now.

Those Filet are making me hungry and I just ate.
Oh in keeping with the theme of this thread

Tonight was shredded beef Tacos on corn tortillas.

Home made Cream of Mushroom soup. Ran out of bread so I had a few Saltines with it.

I been wanting to try this for quite a while and I finally got around to it. I'll never eat Campbells again.

Don't look for veal in the Lewiston/Clarkston area unless things have changed since 2012 or so. When I worked up that way in WA I went to L town one day, just happened to be my birthday. Thought veal would make a nice Bday dinner and seeing as how I was attending to business across the street from an "Italian Restaurant" I stopped in there, was seated and given a menu and a glass of water and left to choose my dinner. The young lady (20yo?) came back and I stated I didn't see veal on the menu, perhaps I overlooked it or it was an off menu item? Her reply...........................

"What's Veal"?

Therefor the quotes around "Italian Restaurant".........................it's not one in my mind if they don't have veal, scallopini, Marsala, Parmesan, or any other dish.

I couldn't find any in other restaurants in town or in Clarskston, including some of the fancier ones I'd never regularly go to.

I might have to look for a Kosher/halal butcher shop the next time I'm over in Redding as most groceries no longer carry it.

Make me hungry thinkin about it.

For tonight's dinner..............please see the thread "upstairs".

Dang, that bean pot gets a lot of use around your place.

Looks yummy. Wish I could have made a loaf of bread and air freighted it to you!

Geno

We could just meet a Charlie's with some bread Geno and hang around till we get some soup.

Jim, he's got a nice place.

We could probably set up camp in his driveway and make some signs................................

Will work for soup

Geno

Yea....it's pretty much meat and potato's over in the LC valley Geno. Cracked Pepper Corns are in the exotic food section.

When I was researching Boudan recipes the majority of them called for Pork Liver.....I didn't even bother looking.

Fortunately I found one that called for Chicken Liver.....it was awesome.

Five minutes from my house.

I kept a mother going for about ten years in the late 80’s into the 90’s. Could never ever get my sourdough to the texture and taste of Boudin. Obviously it has to do with the local strains of lactobacilli and yeast found in the Bay Area and the commercial ovens.. Finally around 2000 Boudin started building out into the Valley and we got one about 10 years ago. All their sourdough is still comes from the 160+ year old mother. We have been part of the buy one get one free a month club since they opened here.

Grilled Halibut Walleye !!

Used the large thick shoulder "loins" from above the pin bones.

That looks pretty fair!

We had kind of a left over night.

Fried mashed potatoes, green beans, and a pork roast cut thin and simmered in sort of a home made BBQ sauce I just threw together in the pan.

Used up some hoagie buns I bought in town and some American cheese.

We all ate too much. I love left over nights!

+1 on Aldi for frozen jumbo sea scallops. Those are a little known commodity here and I don't spread that info around locally, except to my friends. A 12 oz. package of large scallops IN A VACUUM SEALED PACK WITH ALL WATER DRAINED OUT runs you $9.99. Yes, it's a 12 oz. package, but you're not paying for 1/2 the package to be water.

I am a big fan of Aldi, in general. Great prices and products.

Some jumbo scallops I did about a month ago.

[Linked Image]

Calamari steaks and some sirloin as well.

Bean with Bacon soup. I just had some a couple of weeks ago but the only thing I could find in the larder was Beans and Bacon.

I really really really need to go to town.

The soup was good though even though Fats hasn't showed up with any of that Boudin Sourdough yet

Boudin sourdough?

Its got to be a sign.

Indeed.....it's the food gods' will that I should consume a bread so named but alas, I fear it's not to be.

Thanks Fats.

There are a lot of things wrong about California. But, the sourdough you.get around the Bay Area isn't one of them.

I must have gained 5 lbs just from eating the sourdough pancakes at a little Mom & Pop in Pacifica last time I was out there.

Oh Dear Lord I haven’t seen this much guilt spread around since Sister Mary Katherine caught Brad, Roland and I passing around a Playboy in her 5th period class.

Chicken and Andouille Gumbo.

And yes....that's Okra you see in there....suck it Mathman.....

Hotdogs, chili, macsalad. Root beer floats for desert. BBQ swim party at a friends.

You top that gumbo with any hot sauce. Looks delicious btw.

I put a spoonful in while it's cooking but trust me....between the Anduiolle and the Cajun Seasoning it's plenty hot as is.....I'm talking make your scalp sweat hot....or in other words...just right.

It was basically, because my bacon was too thick to wrap with. Couldn't even wrap the green beans properly. Of course, by then, I had used the Prosciutto on the peaches !

Chili, beans, warmed in a zapper, paper bowl. On the road again, back to Iowa, bright, and early.

Fresh ocean caught coho I bled and cleaned about 20 seconds after it hit the deck on the traeger

Picked it up right when we moved here from a Mexican pottery place. It's made deep in Mexico by hand. It cooks really well....

It's half oven/grill but I just use it as a direct grill.... It's pretty freaking cool. It's had a "few" fires in it....

Right on, pretty badass!!!

I've got some baby backs seasoned and wrapped in foil in the oven. I have to run the clock for junior high football, so I'll turn on the oven when I leave. When I get home, I'll open them up and put on sauce, put them back open, doctor up some pork and beans, and put the Italian bread into the oven.

The Surgeon is thinking about getting a couple of Cur dogs so her friend asked me to bring my Sally dog for a visit.
I can't say no to a pretty face so off I went.

Sure looks tasty, excellent job sir.

Geno

Yessir Geno, please do!

What hunt do you have, and do you need a glasser?

We are outside city limits, Doney Park area

Hey Geno more than likely. Several sellers of Mexican Clay pottery up and down the valley. Last place I saw them was about 10 years ago at this place in Escalon

http://lopezimports.net/PlasterParis.html

You would want to call first.

There was a similar Mexican outdoor clay pottery store i frequented in the early 2000's in Sacramento but I believe they are closed.

Best bet for the Sacrmento region is to find places that import Mexican pottery and call around asking about "Asadors de Barro”

You can also order them direct from Mexico but that might take some extra language skills.

Get ahold of me if you do come down and ill see if i can help.

To add there are probably several places in Socal, AZ, NM and TX that sell them and have web sites. Might find a supplier in Norcal through them.

Well,........................ you picked on me once because of my Spanish syntax or something like that, so perhaps I better not call Mexico!

The abuelita at the restaurant always gives me compliments though..................maybe she's just being nice to the gringo.

I'll keep my eye out for them if I ever (unwillingly) have to go to Suctomento again.

Thanks for the info.

Geno

Geno, are you discussing the BBQ pit/cooker I posted a pic of a week or so ago? If so and if you are looking for one I've got a few places locally I can check that have them at times. Not sure where you are located either...

If I'm way off base with the discussion ignore me...grin...

Eating like a king and still losing weight. Up to 55 pounds gone. Tonight was fried cabbage and roasted pork loin. Boys I cook a mean ass cabbage that would make even the best mawmaw proud.

Breaded pork tenderloins in buns - ketchup, mustard, dill pickle, and onion - Bellowing Port mushrooms fried in butter with Lawry's sprinkled on and topped with Mozzarella cheese to melt - doctored up pork and beans - homemade sauerkraut salad - cottage cheese doctored with green onion, chives, buttermilk, and salt and pepper - fried cauliflower.

Sheeit that sounds good!

Pork chop sandwiches are great!

Everyone's stuff sounds yummy.

I just put a no recipe (thrown together) casserole in the oven 20 minutes or so ago. Church ladies left a bunch of large zucchini laying around, I picked an eggplant as I'm not sure if they'll make it to the morning even with the cover, supposed to be 28 or so, a half a ham steak diced, some noodles, a can of Costco diced tomatoes, some cheeses, some of my "Italian blend" of homegrown herbs. No iddea how it will come out, but everything that went in is good.

GregW, nope, not off base, PM on the way.

Tri tip steaks on the grill.

Put them on the hot grill, go to med+. Salt and pepper after ya pull them. Tri tip is one of those cuts that, imo, benefits from being cooked to med or a bit more. MR or rare tri tip is a chewy SOB.

Thats right.

Its the perfect ratio of meat and skin/seasoning/breading.

Not to mention the juciest.

I have no idea how anyone likes a chicken breast.

I don't mind it, but it is at its best the next day - cold, sliced, in a sandwich with Miraculous Whip (please see signature line #1), salt, lettuce, and a slice of tomato.

Boy am I glad I did. It's a bit of a PITA to make due to all the ingredients but well worth it.
I left the Bacon I cooked to make the drippings in the gravy (who in their right mind wouldn't) and omitted the Celery Seed because I didn't have any but it didn't seem to hurt it.

Any of you southern boys make Tomato Gravy.....if not you should.

Tomato Gravy?

Never heard of such a thing.

BTW.....whats your weather like Charlie?

Cool enough for a while I could send something perishable?

My favorite aunt often made tomato gravy. Mmm good.

Not to mention the juciest.

I have no idea how anyone likes a chicken breast.

I bought some boneless skinless Chicken thighs a while back thinking it would be easier to shred for soup. I won't make that mistake again....it dried out something terrible even though I covered it with foil while baking.

I guess that Tomato Gravy's a Southern thing Jim cause it was new to me too.

We're in the 40's at night and mid to high 60's during the day.

National weather service says it's gonna be that way for the next week.

Sometime back someone, maybe Denny?, posted about tomato gravy. That was the first time I had heard of it.

This was awful. Don't do it I beg you!

Elk tenderloin with cognac mushrooms, roasted potatoes and crispy panko broccoli.

Pulled it off the grid at 115 and in 15 minutes it rested to 140. Perfect.

[Linked Image]

That looks really good Pugs.

I boiled a Hutterite chicken and made chicken noodle soup.

Tried out my new stock pot.

Used thinner noodles this time. Worked well.

Noodles made in Polson Montana! Love it!

I was pretty busy this afternoon. Made a batch of kosher pickled eggs and some bread and butter pickles.

Its getting to be fall........my Eskimo sense tells me its time to start laying in provisions.

Kingston asked a while back about my oven/microwave.

Looks like a normal oven/stove.

Except that its also a microwave.....somehow.

Too chicken to try it.

Stopped by at a local well know dive restaurant in a rough part of Phoenix.

Carolina's Mexican Food. 12th st & Mohave.

Had the Tamale combo plate. Pretty good.

Chicken Creole Soup.....I was looking for something different and I'm a sucker for anything Creole so I made a half a batch.
I'm glad I didn't make the whole batch....It's not horrible but something's missing and I can't figure out what.

No Tony's?

Looks tasty FG. Getting to be soup and stew season even here in the Kommiefornia Central Valley. Coolest Sept I can remeber for many years.

The chicken soup I made was good.

Wife made a fine stew last week.

I must be the simplest country sumbitch around.....I get excited about stew.

Mom has been making hamburger macaroni soup since I was a kid, and before.

I hated it when I was young.

Oh yea......it had plenty of Tony's....the recipe called for a pinch of cayenne but you know me better than that.
I even used a can of diced tomato's that had some Hatch Chili's in em too.
I can't put my finger on it but it just didn't do it for me.....maybe it'll be better tomorrow night.....hope so cause I'll be eating it for a couple of more days.....my Mamma would come back from the grave and whip my back side with her thong if I were to ever throw perfectly good food out.

I don't know about that Jim...I think I could give you a pretty good run for your money to see who claims that title.

Wife is cooking up a pot roast for dinner. She also made tapioca pudding for dessert. I get some pics up later.

I am smoke-grilling a London Broil.

My son's in town for a few. Treating him (and us) with Axis steaks medium rare, mashed 'taters, baked acorn squash, saute'd in garlic butter mushrooms.. Basic, and wonderful.

I made a pot of sauce with Italian sausage my friend, member Tracy (Ranger) Green, picked up from my home town and delivered to the annual 'fire Arizona shoot. It was killer.

[Linked Image]

Ed where is the sausage from, if you dont mind me asking.

Wife made Pot Roast with onions, potatos, carrots and parsnips. Plated on a bed of rice with a glass of cabernet.

Pork loin on the grill and a killer risotto made with some fresh herbs and veg.

That stove is bad ass but if my mother had anything to say about it those drip pans would be wearing tin foil.

Great stuff boys !

Yes to the soup/chilli/slow cooker season arriving early !

Killing me with the pho

Grouse udon noodle soup then !

Ground beef tacos with home made shells.

I am in pain.

Chicken thighs, cauliflower, carrots, beer.

Elk ground and elk chorizo meatloaf, steamed cabbage....

Burp.....

JC
A fine stew or a pot of Pintos and cornbread are not just country.
They are plumb deep down satisfying.

New 2 99s and others
Never being where the live I have no idea . . .

How does one prepare Grouse . . .or Huns or any such.

I do know NOW that back when I used to get a lot of them, I NEVER prepared a duck properly.

Fajitas with sliced top round (think it was), guacamole, sauteed peppers, salsa and flour tortillas....

[Linked Image]

I like Grouse breasts dusted in flour and sauteed in butter, deglaze with white wine to make a little sauce.

Yep, there is that !

This time, I breasted, diced & added raw to the boiling stock & veges.

I keep all the legs & thighs too. I just keep adding them to an air free zip lock bag in the freezer.

End of season, thaw, add to crockpot with "something" (whatever is on hand) & slow cook them till you can suck everything of the bones !

Greek lamb and beef gyro with garlic fries.

[Linked Image]

Deer chilli, made on the weekend.

+ brown rice, gluten free tortillas turned into smoked paprika pita chips.

[Linked Image]

Mmmmmm, good.

There was a Greek restaurant in the big town to the southwest of me long ago.

We ate there and did not have any idea what any of it was.

I ordered what looked like lasagna.....but it was not.

That food looks good FC. I would not mind trying Greek again.

Carnitas tacos, tamale, enchilada, rice, beans, chips, salsa and iced tea.

Man, was it good !

Most likely either Pastitso or Moussaka that you ordered.

Off hand I can think of three Greek places we go to throughout the year within reasonable driving distance.

That gyro and fries came from a Greek fast food place if you can believe it.

Love me some greek food!

Used to be a place around here that had outstanding moussaka. They closed up and its a freaking IHOP now

Still have a good gyro hut around though, so all is not lost!

Back in the day, there was nothing better than a good doner kebab with lots of garlic tahini, after closing down the night club !

Home made tacos, on hand made corn tortillas. Topped with onion, jalapeño, cilantro and lime. A few dashes of my favorite hot sauce, and washing it down with a few bottles of Dos XX Amber.

Yum!

I bought some Masa today.......make tortillas out of that right?

I thought that it/he was "in the cold, cold, ground".

I guess one of the big benefits being married to a Navajo gal. Navajo tacos tonight, will use caribou burger..

Or tamales.

Gonna grill some chicken thighs and potatoes here in alittle while. Nothin fancy but they are in a brine currently.

Whats left of pizza night.

The recipe I use makes two crusts.....so we make two pizzas.

Kids had a Canadian Bacon and we had a Supreme.

Broccoli Cheese and Potato soup......it's one of my favorites but with 2 cups of cheese it's filling.

Burp.....

Washing it down with three fingers of George Dickel....life's good in Charlieland.

Will never buy a corn tortilla again.

I think your ready to open a taqueria if that ranchin thing dont work out. Bet they dont have one of them Havre.

Looks good.

If you don't have one get a tortilla press from Walmart next time your there.

Looks like all your missin is the limon, cilantro, sebolla, zanahorias y jalapeños en escabeche tambien.

Broccoli and cheedar cheese soup. A more Autumn dish youll be hard pressed to find.

I haven't had fresh Salmon in a couple of years even though the best Salmon run in ID takes place a couple hundred yards from my front door Geno.

My Vet friend used to bring me a fillet or three now and then but he fell in love (or something

) so I haven't seen much of him lately.

I need a new friend.........that Salmon fishes...

I can only wish this was fresh FG,

I found it in the back of the freezer.................dated Sept.................................................2017

Wrapped well it was quite edible.

No salmon this far up the river. Doubt they mad it this far up the Pit, even before they put in Shasta Dam. If they did, they'd have been pretty dark by the time they reached us.

Geno

PS Maybe you can make friends with wageslave, him and Otis go fishing pretty regular. You'll have to put up with him though.

Jim,

That looks fantastic !!

No. I used a 9x9 pyrex dish.

Put the masa balls between two sheets of saran wrap and pressed with the baking dish.

I have made tortillas many times out of corn meal, which requires eggs, corn starch and milk.

These little beauties are nothing but masa flour and warm water!

I was at the Wall Mart and found a bag of Quaker Masa Harina. None of the local stores carried it.

As does yours Dan !!

Cool smoked a whole antelope backstrap with hickory, cooked souse vide @129 then sliced and quickly seared.. damn it turned out good! I was worried about the hickory but it was great.

Spaghetti squash and Brussels. I ate too much!

After some google-foo I just discovered that while I don't have any Masa I do have everything on hand to make flour tortillas so I'm about to find out if that's true tomorrow morning. I'm betting it is.

Left over pasta in a proper meaty red sauce, a link of Italian sausage from the town I grew up in in NorCal and a salad of greens, red onions, cherry tomatoes olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper.

CI seared Salmon & sautéed asparagus, garnished with pea shoots micro arugula.

It did not suck balls !

Paul, I need to go shoppin' with you sometime. I do not find those items in Dryden.

Yesterday's noon meal. Rouladen. When we made is a week ago, Son, and daughter-in-law looked hurt they did not get to eat it. So yesterday we cooked it again. [Linked Image]

Salmon & asparagus from Walmart & the micro greens were from the Waldhof Farmers Market !

Wow, that looks delicious Richard !

Thank you Paul. The hardest part of rouladen is finding beef sliced thin enough.

A snack of NW Ontario crappie. [Linked Image]

Goodness that looks good Richard.

We loved the Masa tortillas so much we had them again tonight.

Used up the rest of the flank steak too.

Strolled through the Wal Mart again today looking for Mexican stuff.

Found some good stuff.

The can of Herdez Salsa Casera is gone now.

Good trick to make the Masa tortillas is to place the ball of masa in a ziplock bag, then press down with the baking dish,

You really need that tortilla press. If your local Walmart doesnt have it i believe you can order it to be delivered to that store for free delivery.

Anyway Pizza. And yes that's pineapple.

Yonder Wal Mart had no such implement. The stock of Masa Harina we purchased last week or so had not been replaced either.

I personally own half of North Central Montana's masa harina supply. I am kind of a big deal, as I am sure you are aware.

One thing is for sure.....they dont skimp on the pizza toppings in California!

Well if I was the manager and you were in front of my id be seeing how fast i could get a couple hundred pounds delivered in.

Yes sir. I used to build frames and people would bring me a bunch of corks and I'd put them together. I probably haven't made one in a decade but they have aged nicely.

Somebody else, one of the regular posters, has a couple of round cork trivet/pot stands, that I commented on.

I can't, for the life of me, think who it is !!

Jim,

We bought a bunch of local grown & made dill pickles from our farmers market. OMG amazing !

Daughter made killer shepherds pie tonight. And used some ground bison I brought home from ranch instead of the usual shepherd. It was freakin’ awesome

We ate too good for a Friday night.

Couple rib steaks, little white clams I sauteed in chicken broth, and garlic, and poor mans lobster.

Garlic mashed out of the bag.

It was all too good!

18oz T-bone and a bottle of Dos XX amber...

I'm stuffed, can't eat anymore.

hotdogs, chilibeans and tater salad.

A friend gave me some tomatoes from her garden so last nights dinner was a big salad of mixed greens, romaine, tomatoes, red onion, bell pepper, cucumber and goat cheese tossed with olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt and pepper. It was outstanding thanks to the proper tomatoes.

Great looking meals and scenery Paul.

Had pronghorn backstrap again..wish those little critters had more meat on them. Stuffed mushrooms and a garden salad that didn’t make the picture.

Never had speed goat, but know I'd like it, just about like that !

I made another batch of King Ranch Chicken Soup.......I love that stuff.
The Ro-Tel and corn tortillas really set it apart from other Chicken Soup.
Would have probably been even better with home made tortillas but when I went looking for some Masa at Wall Mart they said some crazy hermit rancher over in MT was hoarding it all.

Hey Jim......wanna trade some 22 ammo for some Masa?

The rest of youse guys..............more yummy looking grub. Keep it up and I'll threaten to come for a vist around din-din time!

Dinner tonight was similar to something think i posted a pic of a few weeks back. Casserole of zucchini and eggplant, onion, tomato, garlic, couple of different cheeses. No pics, came out pretty good again and best of all the last of the eggplant from the garden didn't go to waste. I've had to pick it all due to the freezing temps most nights.

Not dinner, but today's breakfast. From scratch sourdough whole multi grain apple pancakes. Served with a sprinkle of cinnamon and some real maple syrup, it was all I could do to stop at four.

I love this time of year, fresh apples for free from friends' trees!

Sounds like a great soup.

Cold and damp over here, might have to look into soup tomorrow. Tonight's casserole helped to warm the house with the oven on. First fire of the year is laid and ready to light. More firewood arrived today so I see no danger of running out this winter either.

Well, our families must have had similar experiences.

Folks were from NYC, so until we left in the early 60's I was exposed to bunches of different "flavors" of foods. The SoCal with the abundance of Mexican foods, some Asian, Mediterranean/ Middle Eastern, and lots of fish, plenty of fresh veggies. Moving around later in life those experiences gave me the ability to sample just about anything with little fear.

Geno

PS, Fresno has a large Armenian population and great food. Any Armenian places where you are?

Charlie,

If you had just mentioned what you had for breakfast, it wouldn't be a hijack.

I had a bowl of shredded wheat with a small apple cut up in it.

No longer laid, .....................lit

And the boy dog got off the couch as soon as it got going good to take advantage of it. Whippets ain't dumb!

It got lit today because it's only 40F now and isn't projected to get much sun or over 60F today. I got tired of listening to the heat come on and paying for electrons .

Geno

PS, I expect pictures from y'all of good eats this holiday weekend.

My Father was born in Fresno. Large segments of paternal side of my family came from Fresno county. I took my family there to live for five years in the 90's due to work. Very familar with Armenian food and culture.

No specfic Armenian restaurants in this part of the Central Valley. But many Mediterranean Restaurants that mix in Armenian dishes.

Well, our families must have had similar experiences.

Folks were from NYC, so until we left in the early 60's I was exposed to bunches of different "flavors" of foods. The SoCal with the abundance of Mexican foods, some Asian, Mediterranean/ Middle Eastern, and lots of fish, plenty of fresh veggies. Moving around later in life those experiences gave me the ability to sample just about anything with little fear.

PS, Fresno has a large Armenian population and great food. Any Armenian places where you are?

Made a 2# pot roast today.
I plan to grind most of it into hash so I pulled the veggies before them became to awfully soft.
I browned the roast really well first and then added a 1/2 cup of red wine along with the veggies.
Then put the lid on and in the oven at 375 for an hour then lowered the heat to 225 for four hours until it literally falls apart.
I have a sneaking suspicion that juice is gonna make some mighty fine onion gravy.

BTW.....those white spots ain't warts....they're garlic slivers trying to escape.

[Linked Image]

Somebody on my hash thread said to add carrots so I'll add the ones I don't eat tonight to the mix along with some onions sauteed over easy. I didn't add em to the roast because I was sure they'd get to soft to grind.

Looks swell Charlie.

I am simmering a bolognese sauce right now.

That had two cups of wine in it.

Now to simmer for 4 hours!

What cut of meat do you prefer for your roasts, Charlie ? Chuck is my go to choice. Plenty of fat that browns well and cheap ta boot. On the menu for later this week !!

Looks great, BTW.

I was taught to use Chuck but this one's a shoulder roast.
It was on sale and since I was planning on grinding it I didn't think it would matter.
It didn't.....I honestly can't tell the difference.

Edit:.....I just googled it.....turns out Chuck is shoulder meat...no wonder I can't tell the difference...LOL

Post some more pics of your sausages. Gotta grind some summer sausage soon so I have TV snacks for the winter. Good stuff.

Ma is gone for the day....so it was dad's cook o rama tonight.

Pasta with bolognese sauce.

Marcella Hazan's recipe....I guess.

I dont know.

[Linked Image]

10th MOUNTAIN DIVISION style S.O.S. (S@IT on a SHINGLE), with 2 fried eggs on top & coffee, circa WWII.
(IF you need the recipe, check out the 10th Mountain's webpage.)

GREAT "old school" GI CHOW, which warms my old soldier's soul.

NOTE: When I was recalled for "the run-up to" Desert Shield, I found myself quickly assigned as a "staff housing facility" manager & also "in supervision of" a MP BN dining hall.
On the first evening, we got in 2 companies of ESCORT GUARDS (mostly retired SENIOR NCOs, paygrades E8/E9), who were to deploy to escort casualties back to CONUS. - ALL of them ask, "Can we have S.O.S. & 'eggs to order' in the Mess Hall?" = I said, "I'll ask."

When a CWO3 (a REAL mess steward, who had been recalled to AD, too) arrived at 0500 on Day 2, I asked that question & he said, "YOU BET & HOT BISCUITS every AM too."
(When the word got around, we were the BUSIEST Mess Hall on post & the mess hall soon served food 24/7, as we Mike Papas work "weird shifts".)

As the months rolled by, I wondered how many thousands of HOT BISCUITS that our mess hall served during Desert Shield & Desert Storm. = NO clue but MANY HUNDREDS of sheet-pans full.

yours, satx

Thats a tasty looking bolognese and rigatoni dish Jim.

FG I was thinking about Sunday breakfast. One of my favorites was a machaca con huevos my grandmother made when I spent weekends with them and she made a roast on Sat nights i always knew we were getting machaca con huevos with fresh tortillas and sometimes skillet fried potatoes. That was also when she pickled her own jalapeños and carrots. I still have my grandparents coffee mugs they used when I was a kid.

Well anyway machaca con huevos is a great way to use up left over roastbeef.

Only once I turned 18.

Anyway two on left I actually gave them as gifts when I was a little kid according to my parents. The two on the right were their daily coffee mugs a Wallace and Tepco. Have pictures of them drinking from them buried somewhere.

Very cool.....Love those old Diner Cups....I drink my coffee out of one every morning.
I have a small collection of Diner Cups that I've picked up at yard sales and thrift stores over the years.
I don't know much about names or brands but I like old chit so I buy em when I see em.

My wife made this Oktoberfest chicken recipe for tonight's supper. It has red cabbage too, so that's a plus.

https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/228364/oktoberfest-chicken-and-red-cabbage/

It turned out super good and has been requested again already. It would be great with pork chops as well.

Boudin and Collard Greens.

Had a date with my hot Doctorchick friend to shoot some Pheasants at a gun club today so I needed something easy when I got home.

I pulled the Boudin out of the freezer this morning and the Collards were canned so all I had to do was warm everything up.

[Linked Image]

And before all you canned collards snobs out there get started try some Glory Foods Southern Style Collards.

[Linked Image]

Ahhhhh, good stuff, Especially with a splash of cider vinegar and a dash of mustard in the mix. Our little country store carries that brand. Thanks for posting about them awhile back..

Would you tell how you make that gravy Dan?

Bacon grease flour and milk

Roast hogget, boiled potatoes, cauliflower and broccoli steamed.

Pretty damn good.

It was advertised as lamb....but the joint was too big and it tasted way better than lamb.

It was a hogget.

We are having leftovers... Carrots, potatoes, and roast. Not beef unfortunately, but axis deer, mule deer, elk and maybe moose.. My stepdaughter and her family were here this weekend, and we had this huge roaster full of various wild game.. They only ate it one evening, and now we have to use up the rest. Should have sent it home with them..

Soup and salad.

Damn, that sounds good FG,

I've got a shank in the freezer and the collards in the garden have had a bit of frost. There's some beet greens growing out there too. I think a pot of greens is in the offing.

Did I miss it on another forum? How was the shooting with the lady Doc?

It gets better......Wendy works with a surgeon from Czechoslovakia who wants to get a couple of Mountain Curs (believe it or not) but they're pretty scarce so she's never actually been around one. Well Wendy knows that I have a Cur Dog so she asked me if I could bring my dog by for a visit. Again I couldn't say no so we all met at Wendy's a couple of weeks ago and her friend turned out to be just as good looking and down to earth as Wendy is (with a wonderful Czech accent) so naturally we hit it off wonderfully..grin I hooked her up with a guy down in No NV that raises some great Cur dogs and she promised to e-mail me some of her favorite recipes.....which I suspect will involve cabbage and/or potato's. I'll no doubt be posting some Czech dinners here in the near future..... stand by.

Ya know......there's no shortage of beefalo in these ID woods but there's some real gems too..
Fortunately these two gems know I'm just a harmless old fool so they tolerate me.

Not homegrown peaches. Haven't met anyone with a tree yet and mine's still only 5' tall transplant from this spring. Be a coupla years for that to bear fruit.

Actually, Patti got them at our local grocer and while good enough to put in the bottom of a cake pan I'd have had a hard time eating them in hand. End of the season and store bought don't make for good peaches in this boy's mind. Made a dang tasty cake tho!

Yesterday's lunch. We have a little Thai/Japanese place that is under new ownership. Food was WAY better than the last time I ate there...............but my god, they are spendy for our little town. I opted for the beef in oyster sauce and a yellowtail collar.

Deer 'sketti fer lunch !

Tonight will be leftover elk pot-roast I slow-cooked on Sunday. Last night I had my first taste of antelope from the first one I harvested Monday, a decent 11" mature buck. I pan fried backstraps in olive oil that I lightly seasoned with Johnson's seasoning salt and some pepper; they were quite tasty and better than expected. Roasted potatoes and steamed broccoli rounded out the dinner.

Pizza burgers, and some nuked-in-the-bag broccoli thing.
Good, I'm full.
Not gormet.

Going out for my wife's birthday... Prime rib on the menu!!!

My mouth is watering. That looks soooo goood. If you wouldn't mind sharing the recipe, I'd love to try it.

Standard Bolognese meat sauce, using deer burger.

Cook macaroni to instructions, drain & set aside.

Build a roux in skillet pan, I used bacon grease & AP flour, make sure to cook out the flour. Add milk (I used whipping cream 33%) & once boiling, reduce heat to thicken.

I used a combination of Jalapeno pepperjack & grand padana cheese. Shred/grate & add to thickened sauce, taste & season as/if necessary. Add back pasta, stir thoroughly & chill.

Bring to smoker, in skillet & cool smoke to desired "smokiness". I did an hour fifteen using Jack Daniels barrel chips.

Reheat, Mac & Bol, when ready to serve & dig in !

*** If you don't want, or have the ability to smoke, I have used smoked paprika before to good effect.

Thanks, will have to try that. I got some sauce I made with elk burger the other day all ready to go.

Man, it's dead set easy !

Forget the smoke & just add the smoked paprika, or you could use smoked cheese too !

I cheated this time and bought them ready made from HEB. When I make them:

Lump crab meat
Bread crumbs
Parsley
Green onion
Mayonnaise
Trappey's hot pepper sauce
Egg
Salt and pepper

I have a smoker so I'll go that route. Never used liquid smoke.

Looks great...

I've never had tuna steak, but have always been intrigued by it. The pictures always show it as being very raw inside. Is it even warm? Are there acceptable limits as to its "doneness"? About how long should it be grilled to achieve the doneness as shown in pictures. These are legitimate questions from someone far from the ocean. Thanks for the help.

I actually cook it longer than most recommend. I have a Bubba Keg that I get the temperature to 650 degree and grill the steak for 3.5 minutes per side. This will have a warm red center anything longer and the tuna steak will crumble when you try to slice it.

Chicken fired steak last night. Mashed potatoes and roast squash.

Not sure about tonight.

I was feeling lazy so I picked up a box of Zatarans Jambalaya mix and threw a pound of Andouli in.

Unless the beer is fermented in the rotting corpse of a camel then transfered to the bladder of an elephant to be dispensed by the cock of a albino blue whale under the pall of a blood moon then it cant be a good beer.

They are slow, and you really can't do wings for four in a decent time.

Red Cabbage and German sausage.

I've never had Red Cabbage before and I ain't getting any younger so I thought I'd better try it.
It's not horrible but I think I'll stick with the green. The recipe called for apples....I think I like the apples more than the cabbage. The sugar/vinegar combination had a nice twang to it though....it made the Cabbage edible.

THANKS !

It's snowing outside so I made some Elk Burger soup with what I had on hand.

1-1/2 lb ground elk, browned of course
48oz beef broth
two cans of sliced new potatoes
two bags of BirdsEye Southwest vegies, corn, green and red pepper and black beans, onion, poblano peppers
two cans of diced green chili
onion and garlic, salt and pepper,
topped with some green tomatillo salsa

quick and easy, wish I'd had some cornbread...

That sounds good!

That does sound good Colodog. Tonight is honey garlic salmon - the salmon was wild caught during a trip to AK. Tomorrow and Tues. I will be prepping dinners for elk hunting trip. What I have planned as of right now: Wazzu tailgate chilly using venison (If you like chili you've got to try this recipe- google the name), elk stew, baked ziti, tomato basil soup with tortellini, spaghetti bolognese (using elk burger).

Sheepherder's Pie - browned burger and onion with salt (plain and garlic) and pepper - a bit of ketchup - canned corn - topped with mashed potatoes with butter on top - loose cover into the oven for a bit

Good stuff John, Edda, the German woman in Wabigoon makes that often.

Elk burgundy. Used Julia child's recipe for beef bourgignon, modified a bit. Absolutely incredible.

Just a suggestion...

Start by cooking salmon flesh-side-down, then flip onto the skin. That way you can slide the meat right off the skin with your spatula.

I love the skin crisped up in sushi and leaving it on the grill makes it ready that way.

Standard glop to put on the cooked flesh side after flipping is a mix of butter, sauteed onion and garlic, a big shot of Worchestershire, and a little bit of lemon juice. Just mop it on the cooked side...

And do not over-cook it!

Friday night Ribeye sammiches !!

[Linked Image]

N299s, thanks for putting that pic up as I have had RE on my mind heavy for over a week. Time to put my meat order in a little early.Tells us about the greens and the cheese, please.

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm 😊

Winnipeg rye bread, thin sliced ribeye (1 steak filleted into 6), 30 second pan fried with s&p.

Sautéed mushrooms & onion with whole grain mustard.

Greens were a hydroponic hybrid lettuce, store bought "vine ripened" tomatoes, Havarti cheese & horseradish !

Mighty tasty !

😊

Pretty simple dinner last night.

Sausage and eggs. No spuds or bread. Trying to stay away from carbs (type II diabetic).

Just a suggestion...

Start by cooking salmon flesh-side-down, then flip onto the skin. That way you can slide the meat right off the skin with your spatula.

I love the skin crisped up in sushi and leaving it on the grill makes it ready that way.

Oh, you can take my word for it, it wasn't overcooked. I like it raw. Grilled too when not over done.

I was a bit afraid to ask my wife if it was a bit undercooked for her tastes, but she can take the thin side if she wants.

Both my wife and I like fish a bunch and we both seem to prefer simple "dressing". This batch was just a bit of lemon pepper stuff sprinkled on the flesh side.

I'll try the flesh side first the next time. This way it was pretty easy to take the skin off though. I eat a piece now and then...................our dogs love it too!

This one came in and was begging for some while I ate mine at the computer last night.

Geno

I can honestly say that Ive never grilled salmon flesh side down.

can't see the need. I do see risks with the mesh-size on Geno's grill.

S&P, garlic, then a few minutes over heat to crisp skin, then indirect until almost done is my standard.

I recently started flesh side first.

I start it skin side down and always flip. You might lose a few flakes but I like the crispiness to the flipped side.

A pan of crappies at noon today. Nothin' fancy. [Linked Image]

grilled Hi Line pork chops. They are thin and cheap....we dont gots no money up here.

Green beans and instant mashed.

Good dinner.

Pan fried pork carnitas salad.

Think taco salad but tastier in my opinion.

For you big Jim, and all. "Just poor people, that's

Big on the sear for the flesh side... and finish on the skin side... Pretty hard to get the flesh side seared without direct heat on it. I like mine looking like it may make it up the next falls inside.

Those flakes you worry about will be safer if cooked first... one of the reasons we do it skin side down last...

Locally grown (well, within 50 miles or so, but out here that's local) uncured ham shank. Grilled over oak coals to get some smokiness.

If you look closely at the pic above, you'll see I had to trim some chicharones off the right side there........................they were delish!

Then it went into a pot of collards and beet greens from the garden

My sister told me she "wished I was her chef" when I sent these pics to her.

Wasn't done in time for dinner tonight, so we'll have it tomorrow..........................but it might have to get sampled for breakfast!

Geno

Wow !!! Mouthwatering. You are cruel,Sir !!

I'll take that as a compliment!

Geno

Thumbs up !

Originally Posted by Jim_Conrad

I roast the tomatillos. While they're roasting, I steep chili's in a pot of hot water until they are soft. Then I put them in the blender. This batch I used one Guajillo chile and a hand full of Chile de Arbol. Some salt, garlic, oh, and half of an onion.

You can make a pretty darn good salsa for tacos, chips etc this way. If you cannot get fresh tomatillos, just used canned.

All lookin good boys !

Yep, I believe you can tell a lot about peoples character, by how they interact, in general, but more so, when the only relationship is on the innernet thingy !

Chicken lumpia, pancit, orange chicken and rice. Washed down with a Widmer Hefe.

Well, I have to say the fresh bear loin (back strap) was absolutely delicious !

Pan seared in cast iron, 4 minutes a side & 6 minutes in a 300*f fan force oven, to an internal temp of 162*f, cover & rest for 10 minutes.

Thin sliced & served over mashed turnip (lots of butter, cracked black pepper & full (33%) cream.

Tonight was some kind of chicken cutlet with apples and apple cider vinegar sauce on it, served over some noodles. From one of my wife's multitude of cookbooks. She did good, I'd eat it again for sure.

Oh, and I had a small serving of those collards and ham hock I made the other day..................yummy.

Dinner tonight will likely be served late as I just pulled a pork loin out of the freezer to thaw.

Will be making my version of wienerschnitzel. No panko crumbs on the pantry shelves so Miller Light beer batter it will be. Pretty good as I've made it often. Garlic green beans and red tater salad on the side. Ice cold milk.

Huevos Rancheros was my first "Mexican" food cooked where they know how.

We have Mexican restaurants here, but they are "Authentic".
The food is good. But it's not right.
Kiss my a--. I prefer unauthentic.

Chicken thighs, pasta, pasta sauce, avocado, lots of cracked pepper & finished with "zested" grana padano.

Ha ! 'bout all we have here is Kraft slices and Velveeta .

We have our struggles with "good stuff" here too.

Mostly get specialty stuff in the big smoke, 4 hours drive each way !

I tried my hand at making some of those Scalloped Potato's with Ham that have been discussed here lately.
To keep it simple I just bought a few slices of ham at the deli which ended up making the dish awfully salty even though I omitted the salt that the recipe called for due to my blood pressure. They were tolerable though but I think I'll just make the traditional kind without the Ham and Cheese next time.

I used this recipe.

https://amindfullmom.com/cheesy-ham-and-scalloped-potatoes/

Charlie, next time soak or boil the ham 2-3 times pouring the liquid off each time and the salt content will be greatly reduced .

BTDT

Thanks for the tip Denny but "IF" there is a next time I think I'll just omit the ham.
I'm liking the looks of the recipe posted in the scalloped potato's thread.
Potato's, onion, and cream. Sometimes simple just works.

Got the grill going this evening and made mac n cheese and smoked sausage. Usually when I smoke something on the grill we will make plates and take to my parents and my wife mother who are all in their mid 80's. My wife also made a pot of navy beans and cole slaw to go along with the other.It was all good.

I made carnitas tonight. We had them with some pintos and flour tortillas. Simple and darn tasty.

Wife and I both got home later.

Looked at each other and said Chili cheese onion dogs.

I grilled up a couple of Hebrews she heated, grated and chopped.

Couple of beers in frosty mugs watching the World Series.

Venison tenderloins (mule deer i harvested yesterday) seasoned with Johnson's seasoning salt, and pepper, pan fried in olive oil, with garlic mashed potatoes.

Home made Brats and store bought ranch beans.

Washing em down with a little George Dickel and watching Live PD.

Real good lookin brisket there.

Fresh made meat mixture. Cooked them in the oven upper middle so peppers are close to the inside top of oven. 450 with a little water in bottom of dish, dont let run dry. I wanted more char but the wife didnt so out they came.

I made them years ago on the grill in a cast iron skillet.

It's kinda deceiving because when you get a good bark it isn't bitter or char tasting. It's just.... bark.

I cooked this one exceptionally low and for a long time. 200ish and probably 15+ hours. It was around 18lbs at the start.

Do you use rice in the mixture. I use to do them on the grill but the wife made up the mixture and it had some rice in it. I wouldn't mind trying them again with a different mixture in them.

Nice looking stuffed peppers, FC. I like mine old school, ground beef, rice, some onion and the tops diced, cooked with a bit of tomato sauce.

Good looking brisket, Del’Flavo. Looks like your HOA isn’t giving you too hard a time about BBQ’ing? Must not be too close to the shuffleboard courts.

I went to the neighbors. He invited me over after he caught me and the boy trespassing last week. Helped him press about 40 gallons of apple juice for hard cider, along with 20 or 30 other folk. So I apparently had hard cider for dinner. Was good stuff.

Correct. Just stuff them with the raw meat and into the pressure cooker they go.

If you're using rice in your mixture precook that, and then add it to your ground meat with all the seasoning and onions and garlic or whatever.

Once they cool, dig in.

Diced mini potatoes this time. We use rice as well but needed to use up the taters.

This time:
Browned ground beef in hot pan until it develops a fond scoop into bowl leaving fat behind.
Diced onions and pepper tops sautéed in fat till soft.
Toss in potatoes and meat. Pan on med low heat.
Salt, Pepper, dried granulated garlic, dried thyme, couple tablespoons chili powder, teaspoon cumin.
Couple small cans tomato sauce. Add just enough water to simmer all ingredients into meat and taters.
Make sure to scrape up all softened fond on bottom of pan
Add in several large handfulls of chopped fresh spinach. A brick of the frozen stuff will work also.
Cook down until just slightly moist. Adjust any spices and amounts you like.
I topped them with fresh grated parm this time.

Boil pasta for about 7-9 minutes or until it's "al dente" or has a bite.

While your pasta cooks, in a large bowl, mix all of the cheeses together. With
your hands, blend the cheeses so the color looks even. From this mixture remove
about a cup of the cheese blend and set aside for later.

To the cheese mixture, add your eggs, salt, and light cream. Melt the stick of
butter in microwave and add to mixture. Stir this wet cheese mixture until it
has the consistency of a wet oatmeal. Usually takes about 2-4 minutes.

Drain pasta and pour half of the cooked pasta into the wet cheese blend. Stir in
contents thoroughly, then repeat with second half.

In a 9"x13" pan ( or one near that size), grease/butter the entire pan very
well. This prevents the mixture from sticking and creates great color. Pour the
entire mixture from the bowl into your greased pan and spread it evenly.

Finally, take that cup of the dry cheese blend and sprinkle that evenly across
the top of the mixture. Place the dish in the oven and bake on the top rack.

Bake for 35-40 minutes. Remove when bubbly and golden on top. Allow to cool for
5- minutes, serve and enjoy!

I made them years ago on the grill in a cast iron skillet.

Do you use rice in the mixture. I use to do them on the grill but the wife made up the mixture and it had some rice in it. I wouldn't mind trying them again with a different mixture in them.

Diced mini potatoes this time. We use rice as well but needed to use up the taters.

This time:
Browned ground beef in hot pan until it develops a fond scoop into bowl leaving fat behind.
Diced onions and pepper tops sautéed in fat till soft.
Toss in potatoes and meat. Pan on med low heat.
Salt, Pepper, dried granulated garlic, dried thyme, couple tablespoons chili powder, teaspoon cumin.
Couple small cans tomato sauce. Add just enough water to simmer all ingredients into meat and taters.
Make sure to scrape up all softened fond on bottom of pan
Add in several large handfulls of chopped fresh spinach. A brick of the frozen stuff will work also.
Cook down until just slightly moist. Adjust any spices and amounts you like.
I topped them with fresh grated parm this time.

Thanks we will give it a try.

Good looking brisket, Del’Flavo. Looks like your HOA isn’t giving you too hard a time about BBQ’ing? Must not be too close to the shuffleboard courts.

I went to the neighbors. He invited me over after he caught me and the boy trespassing last week. Helped him press about 40 gallons of apple juice for hard cider, along with 20 or 30 other folk. So I apparently had hard cider for dinner. Was good stuff.

It's actually illegal in the town that we are renting in as well as the HOA.
But whatever. I only follow the laws I agree with.

Holy fugg! Illegal to BBQ?

Some Locales only allow propane/gas and or electric

Boudan and Okra with stewed Tomato's and some of my home grown Cajun seasoning.

I've used Okra in Gumbo, Red Beans, and even Pinto's for years but this was the first time I made it as a side dish......holy chit.....I about made myself sick. I'll definitely be making that again.........often...

I'm seriously thinking about moving to LA at this point.

I used this recipe but I used 1# of frozen Okra, garlic powder instead of garlic salt, and my Cajun seasoning instead of Lawrys.

https://spicysouthernkitchen.com/stewed-okra-and-tomatoes/

[Linked Image]

Looks damn good. Like a Cajun Bayou sausage and peppers thing going on.

I never thought of Okra as a Pepper but it does have seeds so....yea.

It was something new so that's a good thing but it was also delicious so it'll definitely go into my rotation.

The bad news is.....that was the last of my Boudin.

Correct. Just stuff them with the raw meat and into the pressure cooker they go.

If you're using rice in your mixture precook that, and then add it to your ground meat with all the seasoning and onions and garlic or whatever.

Once they cool, dig in.

On a rack? Liquid? How long? Be interested in a shortcut to killer stuffed peppers!

When I want stuffed peppers and don't have a lot of time to prepare, I brown Italian Sausage (Hot or Mild) with onion, garlic, spices, then stir in a block of cream cheese. Fill the peppers with the mixture and put on the grill. Delicious!

I tried them on the smoker one time and ruined them. The smoke made that mixture pretty crappy tasting.

No rack but it wouldn't hurt.

I pour a can of whole peeled tomatoes in there as well. Sometimes two. Just over the top and all around.

Off the combine, and a little salad. [Linked Image]

I stuffed a batch of hot Italian sausage and bratwurst today from a muley I harvested last Thurs. I simmered one sausage and what was left in the grinder that didn't make its way in to the casing in some sauce and poured over spaghetti- ummm ummmm goood.

Add chunks of this cheese to your sauerkraut and let it simmer with deer sausage. (or dogs/brats) Once it melts, stir it to mix it in with the kraut.

Turns out fantastic. It was a hit in the fish house. I found the cheese at SAM's club.

Fresh elk tenderloin with chimichurri along with asparagus and loaded mashed potatoes last night. No pics but man was it delicious.

Good and simple with lots of Russian dressing. I like.

Try this one...

Just back from Panama in July... tried something with a "not-so desirable" fish

Jurel is https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pacific_crevalle_jack

IMHO, many fish types would also work… Big Bluefish… Big Rockfish, Cod, Cobia etc.

Rinse off Jurel fish slab ( #5 slab maybe)... pat dry on paper towels…

Slice into narrow strips (aka fish sticks).

Dip in a beaten raw egg, then roll in bread crumbs mixed with Mrs Dash Roasted Garlic and Herb blend… pepper or whatever.

Pan fry in a thin layer of oil... i.e. fish sticks.

[Linked Image]

Eat them for dinner and done... OR

---------------------

Make Fish cakes...

Allow to cool sufficiently to then Shred/mash the fish

Mix with:
2-3 beaten eggs (holds everything together)
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup Texas Pete (more or less to taste)... or other hot sauce of your choice
1-2 cup crushed potato chips (more or less)... smash up the chips inside the bag
[Linked Image]

1 tbs Worchestershire sauce
1 tbs mustard
salt and pepper to taste

Once mixed well in a bowl,

[Linked Image]

Scoop out in 1/2 cup portions and fry in a pan of hot oil, shaping into patties as you set it into the pan.

[Linked Image]

Cook each side until dark golden brown… about 1/2"+ to 3/4” thick... If you do any thinker they will be undercooked in the middle.

[Linked Image]

Serve on toast or a bun with a generous serving of bread and butter pickles or sweet relish...

Think crabcake... or fish burger.

Damn good eats.

NO tofu required...

Found another Puffball mushroom not as big as the last so I threw together Puffball Mushroom Parmesan

Broccoli Cheese And Potato Soup with some toasted Sour Dough.

This is so simple but I love it....I probably make a pot once a month.

Interesting reading. How Cento sidestepped govt overreach and gouging of DOP certification.

https://www.cento.com/brands/cento/find-my-field.php

Simple fare as usual for 284.

Roadside chicken on the Smokey Joe. Red tater salad, Three bean salad out of a jar. Ice cold milk. Maybe a sip of apple pie 'shine later on.

Google roadside chicken recipe. I don't remember running across one that wasn't killer.

Deer chili made with home canned tomatoes, first pot of the season.

Italian sausage that member Tracy Green hauled from my home town in NorCal to the Arizona gathering last spring. Quartered potatoes and red onions in the mix. As usual, it was killer

Ill ask again.

Who made the sausage?

Jeeze! Every one is doing great!

Well, cept for maybe Richard. Every night cant be Delmonicos I guess!

After swimming we went back to Malta.

I had a nice strip steak and shrimp.

Wife had a chicken fried steak.

Kids shared an appetizer platter of mini corn dogs, chicken drum sticks and mac and cheese bites.

I like T bones and strip steaks.

Seems like you dont find them on the menu very often any more up here.

Its all tenderloin and ribs.

Tuna fish salad sandwich, soup and a beer.

Most would think Tbones and Strip steaks grow on trees in Montana.

Boy, the world fell right our their own ass.

You cant hardly buy a strip or a t bone at a steak house.

Ribs and tenderloins are okay.....if you are only worried about texture...not taste so much.

Sing Brother, Sing.
I get the strangest looks at work when I saw that don't like Fillet.
It's ok. But some will say how tender their Fillet was.
Big deal. If I thought chewing was hard work, my pants would be smaller.

Seriously, last night night it was Dillon (The Boxer) and Karl (me) for supper.
At the store, steak was short.
I found a nice looking chuck roast about 1 1/4 thick.
W-sauce, Lawry's season salt, garlic, olive oil.
Hot grill, almost bunt on both sides.
Tasked better than any loin.
Good meal, steak, with a drink on the side.

PS. Wasn't tough either.

How did it taste?

Today was my dad's 85th birthday. I told him we would fix anything he wanted and he requested deer meat. I thin sliced the back strap into chops and pounded them to tenderize. Fried in a skillet with gravy made from the drippings, mashed potatoes and pinto beans. I can't believe how much a 85 year old man can put away and then still eat cake.

I haven't forgot wife said Id have to wait till she made it again and watch her to take notes. Season is here so shouldn't be too much longer.

AWESOME I know that market. I used to get trays of sandwiches from there when I was working in Antioch in the early 90's for events.

Wife made stroganoff with noodles and cauliflower.

We had burgers at Wyo Cattle Co. in Sheridan.. Awesome!!!! I hate cooking especially when we are not in the trailer or at home..

Hot dogs and beans.

Breakfast today.

SOS over Sourdough Rye toast, and a cup of Joe.

Last night, pork chops, French fries, squash.

Elk cutlets and nilgai sausage on my little outdoor grill

Oh and beer. Thats all.

Is that an invite Bob, or are you just bragin'?

Salad, Elk roast, cream corn, baked spud, and ice cream and cherry pie. Rio7

Rio is eatin’ better!! That nilgai sausage I believe was made for the relief of Cowpore during the rebellion. It was OLD! I gave it to the hounds. Substituted a pair of fresh brats from Mr. Johnson.

The elk was good!

Cooking Hi Line enchiladas.

What a joy it would be to dine, or sup with all the good old boys here on the food section of the old 'fire.

Topped with Tapatio of course.

Family recipe, so I can't..

A bowl of chili. With beans. Have not made chili with beans for 3-4 years. It's a pretty good batch. Gonna have a bowl or two for lunch today. Maybe a few saltines, and a large glass of ice cold milk.

Square fish of unknown heritage slathered in condiments AKA "glop" on no nutritional value uber soft white bread. Ice cold milk.

Pizza from scratch.

The sauce had anchovies in it! Smells good.

I Lithuanian Potato Sausage last night......it looked and tasted horrible.
Fortunately I only made a small batch because I ended up chit canning the whole mess. Bacon/Sour Cream gravy and all.
It's a good the Creamed Peas I made for a side dish were good or I'd of had to go without dinner.

https://www.thespruceeats.com/lithuanian-potato-sausage-vedarai-recipe-1137349

PS....the sausages didn't look anything like the picture either.

FG, too bad they did not turn out so well. They certainly look good.

Deep fried hot dogs AKA rippers. Popular in NJ. Gonna find out what the fuss is all about ??

Is New Yersey on the map ?

Chicken linguine.

Ate a McRib for lunch.

Don't feel like eating tonight but wife made bacon wrapped chicken tenderloins that I might have to try.

Left over bowl of chili. Meh...

gettin old. Need to make something new tomorrow.

Leftover beef roast sandwich. and a hand full of chips not so bad. [Linked Image]

Poached chicken breast, red tater salad, cucumber tomato salad. Ice cold milk.

Maybe some canned peaches later.

Boiled shrimp, all I could eat for $15.. They lost $.. But did meet two old friends at the diner..

Smoked BBQ whiskey and cheese stuffed meatloaf with garlic buttered egg noodles and asparagus.

[Linked Image]

A really good pot of chili from a recipe in the paper last week.

Greens, grits, and eggs.

A half dozen strips of bacon chopped and fried. Throw in a chopped onion and a handful of garlic. A bid bunch of collards, stemmed and chopped. Big pinch of red pepper, salt, chicken stock........simmer for an hour.

Grits and eggs anyway you like. I like my eggs fried and yolks runny. Grits loose and salty. Rather use stock than milk in grits.

Leftovers.

Not much in a mood for a lot of food tonight. I backed the son's combine too close to a small tree limb. I did damage to the rotary screen, and some how? The radiator has a large leak.

Enjoy the meals folks!

Things happen Richard.

Cracker and cream cheese with beer!

Sounds like an great trip. I've been to Prague and Nuremberg, but not Budapest.

Pan fried some Alaskan halibut and served over jasmine rice.

Paul, if those stuck up Europeans woulds had a lick of sense, they would have had you teach them what REAL grub is!

Boiled some sausages with parsnip, onion, carrot and potato.

Salt and pepper and some chicken broth.

Beef Teriyaki over sticky rice, steamed vegetables, some sushi and tuna sashimi YUM YUM

2 scrambled eggs.....My stomach was giving me trouble today.

PBR will do that to us older guys.

Daughter came over with grandson, hubby is away.

Surprised us with fried panko breadcrumb coated chicken thighs, garlic roasted potatoes and salad.

Didn't even unload the truck first.

Grabbed a beer, sat down, said prayer and chowed down.

Just woke up from food coma to take a shower.

LOL...I wish that was the problem.....I think the sausage I had for breakfast may have passed it's "use by" date.
I've had 4 crackers for lunch and two eggs for dinner since my mid morning 1/2 hour bathroom break.
The eggs had my stomach grumbling a bit but so far so good....

In my younger days, I had a cast iron stomach. I could eat anything. Today, I need to be careful. If it's something that has any amount of fat or spice, I had better be within 50 steps of the head.

Deer burger soup !

Warming & delicious.

Also made potato bacon & leak soup. Son's been giving it a flogging, guess it must be good too !

Chili Mac n corn dogs.

We had a bay scallop and tomato pasta last night.

Airfare was not included, but Deb has her travel agents licence, so we do pretty well.

This trip, was a training / familiarization cruise for Deb & 34 other agents + spouses/partners/family, with this "product". Typically $5-6K per person + airfares, transfers & extra hotels! Our deal, got us both on the "boat" + 2 days in Prague including our airfares etc, for just over $4k total.

Cruise was 7 days + travel + any extra days (at your cost)you wanted.

+ I can't be away from my business too long !

I'll throw up a couple of pics.

Beer n Brats n 'Kraut !

Really considering selling my cameras from point and shoot to my SLRs

So much more convenient. About time I joined the rest of the planet.

Great pics of your European Adventure Paul. The locks looks small compared to the ones on the Columbia, boat looks nicer than the ones I was on though, a whole lot nicer than a 50-60 year old tug!

Everyone else, looks like good eats are still being had.

Geno

Miss Lynn mentioned homemade bread in the pig head thread. I figured since I made some today it deserved to be shared, photographically at least. Probably be stale if I tried to send a slice to you folks

Sourdough whole wheat. One slice missing as I couldn't wait. Then I remembered to take a pic as it looked so nice. Made the dough in the breadmaker machine...........one of civilizations best inventions. Then baked in the oven. My wife and I are stating to like that method rather than letting the machine bake it. Maybe because they look "homier" they taste better?

Sourdough whole wheat. One slice missing as I couldn't wait. Then I remembered to take a pic as it looked so nice. Made the dough in the breadmaker machine...........one of civilizations best inventions. Then baked in the oven. My wife and I are stating to like that method rather than letting the machine bake it. Maybe because they look "homier" they taste better?

Thanks Paul.....I saw a Tobacco shop in one of those pix.....boy would I like to spend some time in a European tobacco shop..

So much more convenient. About time I joined the rest of the planet.

They were kinda far from Ireland/England but I'd still like to look through the pipe tobacco inventory in some of those shops.

Customs would probably require me to get an import licence before they'd allow me back in the country with that much plunder though.

Even though I haven't used any tobacco products in nearly 30 years I still LOVE the smell of tobacco. I'd go nuts in a real tobacco shop. I still have to ask friends to let me smell one of their smokes before they light it. The aromas in a good tobacco shop would be a guilty pleasure for sure.

Veggie soup with ground antelope, crackers and a chance of pepper jack cheese.

No doubt, but they might not be waving you through, just trying to get some fresh air in the joint.

Dinner was just a grilled cheese sammy on some of that bread from the other day. Dessert was great though, apple spice cake my wife made in her new decorative baking pan

[Linked Image]

A little yogurt on top and I was good to go. (I'd prefer whipped cream but none in the house and the yogurt is for an intestinal issue I'm going to a specialist for tomorrow)

Geno

Some Chicken Curry concoction I found on the internet.
Putting apples in soup felt wrong but it was pretty dam good. I like Curried anything though.

https://www.simplyrecipes.com/recipes/chicken_mulligatawny_soup/

I had never tasted a curry until a few weeks ago when we had a chicken curry rice soup.

I thought it was great. We will try your recipe soon Charlie.

Tonight we had deep fried chicken wings and home made french fries.

That's all this is Jim.....chicken curry rice soup....I like lots of veggies so I added a little more carrots and celery.
I also bumped the rice up to 1/3 cup instead of 1/4 to keep my carb intake up.....I have a doctors appointment next week and like listening to her rag on me.....makes me feel loved.

Lumpia, rice, broccoli

FC 67,

Yum!

Geno

I had to google Lumpia.......they look like Taquito's.

More like spring rolls at the Chinese restaurants Charlie.

They're pretty good most times, excellent if you find the right maker, like tamales!

Geno

Yup, like Geno stated Charlie.

These were made by a friend of my wifes from work who sells them to make money for her boys basketball team.

Seasoned ground beef, cabbage, carrots and peas wrapped in multiple layers of rice paper like phyllo.

Big ol' deer sketti sauce !

Deer stew, based on Rea Drummond's recipe from the stew thread, except subbed in Guinness for the lager.

Going to make another smoked mac n cheese tonight, to have with the deer sauce.

Chicken and dumplings!

Non smoked though, it was -22*C when I got home !

So I added bacon & smoked paprika.

That looks good Paul, how do you like that Dutch oven?

Thanks Richard, it was good.

Leftovers for lunch today.

The Staub DO is great, we have 2, that large one & a smaller one.

They both get a workout, as you know, we do lots of "low n slow" cooking.

Originally Posted by wabigoon

Certainly a classy looking vessel which begs the question. Are all DOs equal in performance ?

I use my ancient Griswold chicken fryer w/lid (very good seal) alongside an enameled Lodge. The Griswold has the nostalgia but the enameled DO has the edge when it comes to clean up but that's another discussion . Both seem to cook equally well.

JMHO

I've got about every kind known to man.

Camping;

+ a cheap, enameled "no name knock off", in the camper.

Nicer ones for home.

Love 'em all.

Reminds me, next time I'm over the pass in the other town I need to check the market there that has a bunch of old CI stuff for a Dutch oven. I'm needing one badly, methinks.

Hard to compete with you folks when one doesn't have the proper tools.

Meh, plenty of awesome tasting food isn't cooked on or in CI Geno.

How dare you

Bear Smokie & my mac n cheese "dogs" in 1/3 of a baguette last night.

Same for lunch today.

Antelope chops, green beans and mashed potatoes with gravy made from the drippings from the Antelope chops.

Elk pot roast and beer. Roast was smoked for 2hrs on low smoke then transferred to a crockpot and slow cooked for 5hrs, then enjoyed with a cold beer.

Sonic Double Cheese Burger, large tater-tots, Diet limeade.

Hit the spot tonight.

Chile verde, refried black beans with shredded Portuguese cheese (think dry Monterey), and fried eggs.

Getting in touch with my inner coonass tonight.

Okra and stewed Tomato's with Dirty Rice....extra Chicken Liver in the Rice.

Fine looking plate. Dieting ? That's the kiddie plate

I like to watch TV while eating so I use a small plate when I can.
You can always fill it up again.......which I did......burp.

My winter prep instincts forced me to buy a bucket of chicken livers.

At least now I have some idea what to do with them.

Dunno if you're an ol' rock n roller but,...

Here's the recipe I use Jim.....if you like Chicken Livers like I do kick it up to 8oz.

https://www.melissassouthernstylekitchen.com/cajun-dirty-rice/

And since you have that nice Cuisinart you might try some Boudin.
I add extra liver to this one too and use 3 cups of cooked rice instead of 2 (1 cup of uncooked rice makes 3 cups of cooked)

https://www.homesicktexan.com/2011/01/boudin-recipe-boudain.html

That home made Cajun seasoning I sent you is good in both....don't be stingy with it.

All this talk about chicken livers I now have a craving for a pupu platter of rumaki.

Mmmmm....Rumakie.....food for the gods.

Saturday - Thai red curry using deer "stew" chunks, lots of onions & sweet peppers, served over wild rice blend.

Delicious.

Sunday - Huge pot of potato, bacon & leek chowder & big slices of green onion / cheddar sourdough toast.

Bread wash homemade by a customer of the shop. Also got cinnamon raisin, garlic cheddar & jalapeno cheddar in the freezer.

I forgot to thank you for that seasoning Charlie. Thanks very much!

I had to hide it from myself. Its so good I was eating it out of my palm.

Never had Rumakie or chicken livers.

I haven't tried eating it out of my hand................................................yet.

It is good though.....I'm glad I tried making my own.

Did you notice that I packaged it in a 22 ammo box......I thought you'd get a kick out of that.

You need to make some Rumakie's........Stat! Your kids will love em.
They're super easy. There's plenty of info on the googler or just ask here.

Speaking of livers.....I've always seen em in the plastic tubs until the other day when I couldn't find em and had to ask a lady that was stocking the meat shelves. She pointed me to some that were in regular styrofoam packages. When I opened em I found that they were bigger than normal, not swimming in a pool of blood, and trimmed a lot better than what I'm used to. Gourmet Chicken Livers I guess......who knew?

Thick slices of Jalapeno cheddar sourdough toast, schmeered with garlic & herb cream cheese & topped with the last of the deer sketti sauce.

Put a little anchovy paste in that and you would have something then.

Hangin' out in a south Philly pizza joint years ago the owner tossed a fresh anchovy right outa the can into my mouth.

WOW ! The strongest fish/salty combination I've ever tasted had me headed for the door. A slight amount of anchovy paste mixed in might be another story. I'd approach with trepidation

Cheesy scalloped potatos.

Beer braised brats and onions.

[Linked Image]

I wanna learn how to do that.....beer braised brats and onions.

I just googled up a good looking recipe and put the parts on my shopping list.

Dam you Fats...you know how weak minded I am when I see a sausage dish.

I like the looks of this one.....hard to go wrong with Hot Mustard and dark Ale.

https://www.chowhound.com/recipes/beer-braised-bratwursts-with-onion-14145

It'll be a couple of weeks before I can get to town but I'll post the results.

It was a bit of inspiration as originally I was just gonna grill them. Saw some onions in the pantry while drinking one of my German Octoberfest beer.

You can use the Googler like Charlie did Jim or here's what I did.

Bias sliced in half five uncooked brats. Pole to pole silced two yellow onions. Tossed all into a pan with some olive oil. Med-High until sausage skins and onions browned/carmelized on both sides, lid on the whole time when not turning.

I piled onions ontop of the sausage during this process added granulated garlic and cracked pepper on top.

Dumped beer into skillet when I liked the color of the sausage and onions. Turned down med with lid off.

Heaping teaspoon cornstarch, couple spoonfuls of hot beer into bowl mix until you have a slurry. Add enough liquid in bowl to mix fully then dump back into skillet. Turn to low and simmer until thickened with a nice sheen minute or two depending on how much cornstarch you use.

Cover pull of fire wait a few mintues then serve.

Chicken drumsticks, marinated in Chinese 5 spice & Deb's "secret ingredients", slow oven roasted till almost fall of the bone tender & served over our wild rice blend with scoops of pan juices.

Rumaki.

We make a duck rumaki. Soak chunks of duck breast in sake, soy sauce and fresh ginger.

Wrap a 1/2 piece of bacon around duck cube with a slice of water chestnut. toothpick it and grill.

Mind blowing!

Been corning it for a week.

I made a Cajun Chicken and Gravy concoction that I found on the net last night.
It's basically just some Trinity, Chicken, and light roux but it was good.
I'll probably make it again but I'll spice it up a little more next time...might use Andulie instead of Chicken too....or both.

AI also made some Green Beans from the same site.
I was leery about the Brown Sugar/Red Pepper Flakes combo but it was quite tasty.

I'll be eating left overs for a few days but that's fine with me....tasty food and no cooking.....win/win.

Looks mighty tasty FG.

Seems like you could take that chicken dish different ways by changing just a few ingredients.

That's what I was thinking Phil.

Funny thing is Gumbo Lite came to mind when I was making it.
Change that butter and flour to dark Roux and add some Sausage and Okra and it would be Gumbo.

The light Roux's a nice change though......I'll experiment with it and see how it goes.
Course it's pretty good just the way it is too. I might otta just leave well enough alone but what fun is that.

Rainy afternoon so a project.

Chunked up the last elk roast in the freezer and used the basic Julie Child Beef (Recipe).

Went with bacon and pancetta to up the fat content a bit due to the game. I also do the trick of completely cooling the meat after the braise and reheating it to split it up a bit.

Served it over some mashed Yukon Golds. Perfect dish for the day and the leftovers will be even better.

skillet cheese burgers on white sandwich bread and tater chips. Meh, was pretty good.

Cauliflower crust "pizza". In quotations as I can't really call anything pizza if you can't fold a slice in half lengthwise and pcik it up and eat it. My NY Italian American upbringing will just not allow that.

Simple cheese pizza type toppings, nothing fancy. Actually pretty tasty for what it was. Told the wife I'd eat it again.

PS Pizza doesn't have buffalo wing chicken or friggen cheesburger toppings on it either. Just so youse guys know. fuggetttaboutit.

All the while munching on that awesomely toasted buttery Boudin sourdough.

I was living large this morning.
I put 1/2 of a diced onion and 1/2# of breakfast sausage in a big ol pot of Cheese Grits (yellow stone ground). It should be enough for a week or so but after eating some with a couple of OE eggs I'm doubtful that it'll last that long.

Cheese Grits?

Oh man, yum.

Hope it was extra sharp chedda.

You know it.....it wasn't Tillamuck but it was still good.

I add sausage quite often but this was the first time I put onions in it.....It won't be the last.

Good grief.....you need to do something about that ASAP.

Corn Bread's pretty cut and dry as is Quick Grits but get the Stone Ground. You need to stir them often and no matter what the package says add more water and cook em for at least an hour.

Ok, here goes the dumb, German heritage farmer, hillbilly.

What is the point of the "tomahawk' cut?
If you were going Neanderthal, and eating the thing with your hands,
It might make sense. But, no one does.

And I like that meat nestled in the fat.

Not trying to be a Big Stick, just asking.

Originally Posted by Jim_Conrad

Jim....if you thought making Roux was dangerous wait till you lift the lid to stir a pot of simmering Grits and it starts spitting what seems like molten lava at ya like a Rabid Camel.

Roast.chicken, butternut squash wrapped in foil and roasted, black beans.

Cream of Mushroom soup with some Sourdough Bread and butter.

I made this soup a while back and for some reason I love the stuff.
Super easy to make and delicious.....it's definitely in my rotation now.
For some reason this batch came out a little watery but I've got plenty of bread to sop it up with.

[Linked Image]

PS.....I don't bake and my buddy Geno's never around and Fats won't send me any of that communist party issued bread from CA so this is what I settle for. It's actually pretty good bread though.

Geezly crow, y'all are eatin' good. Tonight was a plain burger with a little cheese on it (Tillamook extra aged from Costco as I recall, nice and sharp for a Tillamook product) and I had a few spoons of brown rice that were left in the pot after fixing the "topper" for the dogs' food. One of our kids is "special" and gets goodies on top of her kibble to make sure she eats enough. This batch was burger, some drippings from the tuna and chicken I baked for my breakfast and for snacking, frozen peas and carrots, and the rice.

I wish I had some soup and sourdough, or some of them grits. Supposed to be cutting back on the card until I get scoped on Friday for this intestinal deal I've had for a bit. Hope they can figure it out soon.

I moseyed over to the Italian deli and picked up a pastrami mortadella swiss cheese sandwich. Little tater salad on the side.

Cold and snowy here back in the holler so tomorrows dinner will be sourced from our little store. I've made this several times and it's a winner. Quick, easy and a one skillet meal. I usually substitute pork loin but that's just me. Don't forget the hot rolls fer soppin'. Enjoy.

We all done seen you in your nighty. Id say focus on the cooking as a selling point.

I make my own microwave bagged popcorn in a brown lunch bag. Then melt the butter and top with salt and fresh cracked pepper.

The grand kid likes it when we use the air popper or when I make it in a skillet on the range.

When we make popcorn here, it's mostly Jolly Time corn.

Don't let me derail you good folks from real food! Down on the farm we often eat a bigger meal at noon.

Tonight was just too easy. I've had a big bag of white peppered gravy mix on the shelf forever it seems and I'm in the middle cleaning my little galley anyway so a bang against the counter edge with a tube of Pillsbury biscuits tossed into the oven and it was good eats time.

Even got plenty leftover for a few eggs sunny side up tomorrow AM. !!!!!

That pot luck meal I've talked on. There was a full table, I took the pictures a bit early. I needed to get out of the way! All those boards had a hot dish on them. Soooooo Good! [Linked Image]

Love a good pot luck!

Pot Roast

That looks good!

We had spaghetti and meat sauce.

Not really a bolognese....kind of a Conradese.

Thanks, Jim. I use Paula Deen's recipe, but add parsley and double the gravy.

I have an original Bolognese recipe from Italy. It is much drier and less tomato based than anything I see most Americans making.

Friday night, easy special !

Saturday night was pannini pan back strap & potatoes roasted in duck fat.

Sunday night & lunches this week, hearty venni burger soup.

Was not feeling well last night. Kept it simple. 2 pieces of buttered toast, and a cup of hot chicken broth. Was in bed and asleep by 8pm.

HOLY COW.... Did you see that pair of milk jugs that gal was sporting ?

Honored lunch but left over chicken and rice soup tonight.

Looks good Jim.....that could actually qualify as Bangers and Mash.

Good!

I was thinking about Cumberland sausage when I was making it.

The first time I made it I used store bought Brats and it was delicious.
I've since graduated to Cumberland Sausage but it's really more about the gravy.
The sausage just supplies the drippings.

Here's a good recipe with a killer onion gravy recipe. Read what he has to say about the type of sausage used.

How you fellas can eat canned green beans is beyond my comprehension. I hated green beans all my life until I picked some fresh from a garden. And ate them right there. A light saute and that's about as cooked as I need them.

But at least y'all are getting some greenery down the tube, right?

Geno

PS, everything else looks yummy .

As a Slovak dish, the lima bean soup usually had garlic in it. Amazing how simple and good it is.

I made a damn good pot of chili verde tonight.

Made a big pot of Senate Bean soup with a big ol ham bone for the family for supper tonight. Had some homemade garlic bread with cheese to go with it. The recipe said to put some instant mashed potatoes in for thickener. Pretty good. Was hoping for some leftovers for lunch tomorrow, but with two teenage boys in the house it's completely gone.

Deer sketti !

Butter & garlic roasted chicken, roasted butternut squash, salad.

Charlie, I'm like that with deer burger soup, slightly different every time & I could eat it all winter.

Out for supper last night, with a young missionary couple we support.

Beef dip, with onions, mushroom & cheese, on a really good pretzel bun. Au jus was rich, very tasty.

Looks very very appetizing. Good cold day / snow (fugg) recipe. Saved to my recipe box on that site !

I finally got around to using some of that Riced Cauliflower I bought awhile back. Made a simple Riced Cauliflower Pilaf.

It was edible but nothing to get excited about.

I still have a pack of the Cauliflower Sweet Potato mix but if it's no better than the first pack I think I'll just stick with Rice..

Leg quarters vac sealed. One meal roasted on a bed of aromatics.

Wings, carcass, neck, and skin cooked with aromatics,cooled overnight, fat skimmed.

Sometimes it's best to just do your own spatchcocking if you want it done right.

Straignt run as evidenced by the weight range. After Cornish cross, these are like real chickens. They actually get off their asses and move, don't have heart attacks, nor blow out hips. They tradeoff is they need an extra week or so to grow. Never kept track of # of feed per # of bird, but my sense is it's close.

It would be worth it then....certainly.

We just ate some grocery store sushi we hauled home for two and a half hours.

It was good!

Free range yardbird sounds like fun but given that I've lost all my pet ducks to whatever's lurking out there,...... bad idea.

You need a couple knot head English Shepherd dogs.

Nary a critter will infiltrate their perimeter.

Thats my scrape the bottom of the empty kitchen pantry and refrigerator soup.

Equal parts chicken stock and water.
Chicken
Celery
Onions
Frozen peas and carrots
Ground Thyme
White and black pepper
Fresh choppen parsley
As much barley as you want to add
Salt if needed at end

Nothing wrong with that. Some of the internet recipes get a carried away with spices and ingredients in soup.

Sometimes simple just works....or what do they say....less is more.

The Lentil soup I made to night is a perfect example.....I cut the seasonings in half and it was still a bit too much.
Course my stomach's so fugged up these days almost any spices is to much so I can't judge it too harshly.

Stopped in there to see what the store was like, as they've got the walls up on the one they're building in our town.

Whats the flavor of the pasta like?

Jim,

I'm a big seafood aficionado so I was hoping for a more interesting experience.

It tasted like........................pasta.

They weren't expensive, so I'm not out much.

The color (lack of color, as they were black?) is cool though. Probably work great for a Halloween party.

Geno

@-38*C outside, decided to cook comfort food for the week.

Potato, bacon, leak soup;

[Linked Image]

& a big ole venison chilli;

[Linked Image]

Prime rib and Home made creme puffs. I really need daughter #3 to go back to college soon or Im gonna bust.

[Linked Image]

I cooked a couple pizzas last night.

The sauce did not turn out quite right.....will have to keep working on that.

Very colorful. Care to share what ya got there for my dumbazz.Recipe.

[Linked Image]

Red Kidney beans & liquid, black beans & liquid, yellow, orange & red sweet peppers, Jalapenos (green), can of chilli style diced maters, 2lbs deer burger, 2 sweet onions, whole can of tomato paste + a table spoon of maple syrup to reduce acid, homemade chilli spice mix (garlic powder, onion powder, crushed red pepper flakes, cayenne pepper, oregano, hot paprika, ground cumin, sea salt, and black pepper).

Soften onions in bacon grease, add burger & brown, add spice mix & cook though, add tomato paste &chilli tomatoes & beans, taste - quite acidic due to tomato paste - touch of real maple syrup to brighten up. good mix & allow to simmer to incorporate flavours, add chilli & peppers & stir to mix. Continue to simmer until happy !

Bbq beef ribs cooked low and slow all afternoon.

Damn, LD, just damn !

Whew ! thanks, Paul.

Maybe in the summer when peppers are available.

Denny, it's chilli eatin weather now !

Just sayin' !

What's that in Fahrenheit ? You probably have shorts on.

Imma inside dawg

My son in law gave me a bunch of frozen Pheasant from his hunt. They were cleaned, skinned, frozen and packed two per vac bag. I thawed out a bag, and needed an idea. I have never cooked pheasant before. They just don't have those in Florida.
Wound up deboning the thighs and legs, and sauteing those in EVOO and butter. Seasoned them, and chopped the meat course. Made a pot of tri color Rotini, and sauted some portobello mushrooms in the same pan. Steamed a head of broccoli, and cut into florets.
Made a sherry cream sauce, and put it all together. Came out pretty good.

No Mate, -40*f & -40*c are the same !!!

No shorts till Friday, when we land in Florida, for another Caribbean !

I like that Sam !

Was the pheasant tough &/or dry !

Never cooked 'em myself, but have heard they are difficult to get right.

I was concerned about the birds drying out. I cooked the thighs and legs whole, searing on high heat, then reducing to low until they were done rare. I knew they could continue to cook off the heat.
Before adding the meat to the finished dish, I deboned and chopped the Pheasant dark meat. I found it to be tender and very juicy, not at all dried out or tough.
I breasted the carcasses, and reserved the breasts. I am going to poach two, and bread and fry two, just to see how they come out. I made stock from the bones, and saved that. I scraped the carcasses and used that meat to make Pheasant Salad. Nothing went to waste.

Mmmm, now ya got me thinking about doing a confit of ruff grouse & wild duck legs & thighs, that are in my freezer.

Hamburger Stew - small balls of hamburger, browned, added to a pot of carrots, celery, onion, potato, and cabbage in chicken broth - simmered for awhile for the vegetables to cook completely and the flavors to get acquainted and mate with one another.

I call it hobo soup. Make it at least twice monthly.

Don't foget a few drops of Sriracha,

I cooked the 4 Pheasant breasts last night. Poached them in stock made from the Pheasant carcasses along with some orange juice. Added some Herbes de Provence. I sauteed shallots and garlic in butter and olive oil. Added some of the poaching liquid and Port Wine. I reduced that to half, and finished the sauce with heavy cream.
I browned the poached breasts in butter, and served them over garlic mashed potatoes, topped with the reduction sauce. It came out very good indeed. The breasts were fork tender, and full of flavor.

All good men! Simple for us last night, small sausage, and flapjacks.

NICE !

Looks great Sam.

Reheated some chilli !

Didn't suck.

Broiled prime rib beef, cheddar, onion sandwich melts and tomato bisque soup.

James, now I've got a hankering for chicken and dumplings.....................thanks.

Everyone else, congrats on the good eats............even the Spam right out of the can.

Tonight's was rather nice here. Pork roast and vegies. (carrot, turnip, celery, taters)

Wouldn't call it amazing, but it was delicious and filling.

PS, Fat City.............................there's some carnitas makings there. My cast iron will be getting a work out this week. Gonna hafta whip up some homemade tortillas for that.

I just bought a big ol pork Shoulder roast myself a couple days ago.

I plan to use half of it to see if I can replicate Bob's Goulash recipe and the other half to make some "Hunters Sausage" I've been wanting to try. The roast doesn't have as much fat as I would like for sausage but it's 1/3 bacon so I think it'll be ok.

Hopefully I'll start feeling better and can get back on the job soon but until then it's a couple of scrambled eggs, cottage cheese and peaches, and chicken noodle soup and I don't mind telling you...........it's getting pretty dam old.

Charlie, I feel for you and hope they get it figured out soon.

Took folks with medical degrees, testing labs at their disposal, etc 7 months to figure out what was going on in my guts. Well, some blame goes to the insurance companies for the try this/try that first before we authorize a colonoscopy. Oh, there was a little event called the Carr Fire involved too, only burned up a big section of Redding. Finally got that authorization and scoped, diagnosis in a coupla days after the biopsy, scrip for some steroids, and wonder of wonders 3-4 days later and I was back to normal. They tried no dairy, FODMAP diet, cut back on this, cut back on that. Pain in the arse not eating what I was used to/like to eat.

I hope the sausage comes out great, knowing you it most likely will.

Say hi to your pups,

Was at my daughters apartment yesterday and it was dang cold outside so I thought
why not make some bone warming soup, and I did, Ron T's Hearty Bean Soup !

RON�S HEARTY BEAN SOUP

2 lbs. Great Northern beans ("dry", NOT pre-soaked, rinsed well, foreign objects removed)
2 Large onions, chopped medium
1 Large head of garlic, minced
1 Tbs ea. Olive oil and butter
2 Ribs of celery (no leaves), chopped medium fine
� lb. Slice of lean smoked ham steak, rind removed & ham cubed (1/2 inch) 1 Large ham hock thoroughly wrapped & tied-off in cheese cloth
1-2 Tbs. Frank�s (formally Durkee�s) Hot Cayenne Pepper Sauce (to taste)
1 8 oz. can of Hunt�s Tomato Sauce
1 Large or 2 medium carrots, sliced, then diced medium (� to � inch)
4 Tbs. Bac-O�s Chips
1-2 Tbs. Hickory-flavored liquid smoke (to taste-Wright's Hickory-flavored is good)
1 Tbs. Lawry�s Season Salt

1) Add butter & olive oil to pot, saut� onions & garlic until softened.

2) Carefully cut rind off of the smoked ham slice in as few pieces as possible.

3) Place all ingredients (including the ham rind) in a large pot and cover.

4) Add enough water to cover ingredients plus an additional three (3) inches of water.

5) Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low and allow to �heavy simmer� (somewhat more than a simmer, bubbles constantly rising) for 4 hours, stirring occasionally.

6) Check the beans for �doneness� (beans should be cooked all the way through, but still very firm). If not done, heavy simmer an additional half hour or so. Check beans again.

7) Adjust seasoning (add more Season Salt if needed). Remove ham rind from pot before serving. Serve with freshly-chopped onion.

--------------------

Mmmmmmmmmmmmm, amazing as always, and a tribute to Ron T, an incredible gentleman, and excellent chef.

Pork mixture in the deep fried lumpia Charlie

But as a portion of the overall meal it was small.

For me the highlight was the lime fruit jello cup. Just like Grandma made.

I know what your going thru as well wife and I have really cut back on our meat consumption.

The tail end of last night's pizza.

Do I look like I would know what Lumpia is?

I'm eating store bought Chicken and Noodle soup and a few Crackers tonight but I'm not sure it's really chicken.

Pan perdue. It was great. Haven’t had it in years.

Speak English Bob, we ain't all as educdactd as you are!!!

Ok Richard. Plain old French Toast.

When you put it that way Bob, it still sounds good!!

Homemade cornbread. Homemade sausages, homemade sauerkraut with hot peppers, onions, and celery and a little whole grain mustard. Washed down with an ice cold brew. YUM !

Getting ready to make a pot of hot and sour soup.

Chicken wings in the air fryer

Bride stuck some chicken tits in the oven w some sort of chinamans sauce on them, mashed taters and some green beans.

Pretty tasty.

Smoked turkey, spinach and barley soup. More like a stew actually.

Topped with fresh grated romano cheese.

Fresh crusty Boudin sourdough on the side.

Another night with the girls, this time a quick asian noodle soup, made by my daughters especially for Mom.

Where do you buy Boudin bread?

At the Boudin San Francisco Sourdough Bakery and Restaurant about two miles down the main drag in town.

Boudin has opened Bakeries and Restaurants around NorCal. Still using the original mother from the 1800's

Looks fantastic. Whats the base of the broth?

In a large pot brown 3 pounds of fairly meaty beef bones in a few tablespoons of oil, when bones and meat are browned (pour off oil), add 3 litres water to the pot, and 1 cup of soya sauce. To pot add 1 large Vadalia onion quartered into hunks, 6 thumb size pieces of fresh ginger peeled and scored with a fork, three fresh chili peppers, six large whole garlic cloves (smashed), 1/2 tsp five spice powder, 1 tablespoon of brown sugar, 12 peppercorns, 1 tablespoon of salt, 3 litres of water, 4 large celery stalks cut into large chunks, 4 large carrots peeled and cut into chunks. I simmered the broth for 2 hours adding a bit of water twice to maintain amount of broth desired.

We adjusted salt and five spice powder to taste, and perked it up with a couple of splashes of white vinergar.

We pulled the meat from the bones and added it to the pot, I also added precooked chinese egg noodles, and a variety of veggies cut into match stick size.

Simple, not an authentic recipe, just something we have always cooked together and enjoyed together

We don't have one up here.

Maybe we should have our socialist State take over and make sure all us peasants can have that nice bread in all our impoverished rural communities? Make all them rich city slickers pay for it too!

PS, know anyone into industrial espionage? I could use some of that starter for my breadmaking up here on the RANCH.

Breakfast was nice, a little frittata.

3 eggs from my chickens, a little Bulgarian buttermilk mixed with the eggs, some mole chicken leftovers cut in small chunks, a coupla baby bell peppers, some "spices", and because I had no queso cotija I used some other sharp, dry, salty cheese, peccorino Romano in this case. Dressed with a little Herdez Salsa Casera.

In the pan:

Incase any of you food scientists was thinking what I thought several years ago when Boudin branched out of SF.

Quote

Boudin has many California locations, including a flagship on San Francisco's Fisherman's Wharf. Scientists say that yeast taken to a new environment will take on new characteristics, which is why Boudin's bakers say they ship each location 30 to 40 pounds of the mother dough monthly.

Sorry Geno looks like logistics are against that caper.

if only I had an insider,

I'd get a monthly shipment smuggled in every month too!

We're lucky enough up here sorta. We have this place in K' Falls. They use wild yeasts in their breads and some are excellent. I'm just finishing up a nice Onion Rye, only the end left since Wed and I'm the only one eating it.

http://www.green-blade.com/

If you're ever up that way, look them up. They make very decent pastries too. I'm a cheese Danish kinda guy and there's is more than passable.

One broiled pork chop for the two of us. Mashed spuds, gravy from a package, . lima beans.

Leftover Albóndigas soup.

It was good last night and as usual even better tonight.

I'm still not feeling very well and we all know how our taste buds change when we're under the weather so I'm either lucky or I really nailed the spices on this batch but it's my best to date.

Field I had to look up what that was.

Looks pretty tasty, may have to make some next weekend.

Iowa Chops browned and then finished in the oven, Stovetop Stuffing for Pork, creamed peas, applesauce, and cabbage salad with a brown sugar/oil/vinegar dressing.

PS.....make the meatballs smaller than you think they are......mine tend to come out too big.
They're edible but bigger than the ones in the restaurants I've had it at.

Hope you feel better soon.

Boudin has many California locations, including a flagship on San Francisco's Fisherman's Wharf. Scientists say that yeast taken to a new environment will take on new characteristics, which is why Boudin's bakers say they ship each location 30 to 40 pounds of the mother dough monthly.

Sorry Geno looks like logistics are against that caper.

This is indeed some of the finest bread I've ever had. For several years, I had an associate who would order me a box of it for Christmas.

I gave up bread a while ago, but would break that ban instantly if I had a loaf of that in front of me.

Green chile rice, herb roasted pork loin, mole negro, roasted brussels with garlic and maple...

Stuffed my face....

Im Dad. King of the yougonnafinishyourfriesandburger Clan.

Paul, you got me started on that one.

It turned out great....I think.

We all loved it.

I cooked it in an oven, so not traditional. It was damn good though.

I cut a little butter into mine when I mixed it.

I just cant find the Golden Syrup that my Father in law sends up.

We used honey or jelly.

I pronounce it DAMPER.

My wife pronounces it DIEMPAH

Ha, ha Denny, I forgot what I sound like !!

Can't here ya. Speak louder !!!!!!!

Thanks guys.
I had no idea what damper was.

And I knew Jim wasn't going to eat that soot covered plate in the flue pipe.

Oooooooh! Pan de campo!

Ok

I looked that up Bob.

Thats cool. Camp bread I guess.

I suspect that every culture has one.

Jim, all it is here is a big damn biscuit.

Kinda like bannock bread I suppose.

Yay!!

Quick bread banter.

Well I had leftover store bought tamales again tonight. They really weren’t bad.

I have a ham and bean soup on the stove.

Soup, for 2 weeks !!

Gotta lose freshman cruisin' 15 !

Chicken breast, cut up and cooked. Carrots, celery, cauliflower, onion, chopped up and cooked. Throw in some frozen peas when pretty much cooked. White sauce with chicken broth, butter, and flour, and cream of chicken soup. Mix it all together in a 9X12 glass dish. Top with whomp biscuits cut into 1/4 pieces. Oven until biscuit pieces are done.

Corn chowder, my first attempt.

Thanks, Jim. They're just down home West Virginia husband & wife folk that went into the BBQ rub business. Actually stopped using other commercially available rubs. They're that good.

Mole chicken breast cut up and served over basmati rice. My wife got some of the beans she made the other night mixed in with hers. I'm going out to visit with folks, so I prudently left the beans off mine. And we each had a flour tortilla.

Nothing exciting tonight, just "staple" food.

Might have a hunk of cornbread when I get home, or maybe a piece of chocolate cake when I get home.

Geno

I bought a new set of soup a while back so I made some French Onion Soup tonight.

Couldn't find any of that fancy cheese but the recipe said you could substitute Swiss so I did.

No pix....my camera's being a bitch.

How'd you like it?

Nothing to get excited about Jim but it was edible.

A better use of the ingredients might have been some onion gravy for Bangers and Mash.

Here's the recipe I used....there really isn't much to it.

By the way, those lil Thai chilli peppers are hot !

Paul, that soup looks fantastic.

You have a pic of those peppers? Over the years the plants they sell down here as "Thai peppers" have changed. The ones I seem to get now look more like a chile de arbol than what I knew as a Thai pepper.

25 years or so ago I grew some that were only slightly bigger than a chiltepin or chile pequin. They were approaching habanero in heat level with less of a fruity flavor. I was in college then and gave some to a young (and foolish) classmate who said he liked hot stuff. Came in one day and asked what I had given him, he made a skillet of stir fry and he said he loved it but could barely stand the heat. I asked how many he put in, he answered "5, and a few of the other peppers you gave me". I had to reply I only put 2-3 in a skillet size dinner and if there are other peppers in there they are only mild ones like bell or Anaheim. I'd love to get some little tiny Thai peppers again, this time I'd be smart and save the seeds.

Thanks for "sharing" that soup with us.

Geno

'bout like this;

Put 2 only in the soup, no seeds or membranes either !

I think the label put 'em right below Hab's !

Don't wipe your eyes, after seeding either !

Doh !

I'll get a real picture tonight.

Going again, substituting shrimp for the chicken tender chunks.

100,000 Scoville Units.

Pizza from the little local crossroads market

deer roast, jaccard it and Allegro marinade over night, put in crock pot this morning with an onion, sliced carrots, and about half quart of wild wishi mushrooms. Turned out to be the best deer roast "ive" made. Ate it with mashed potatoes and a dash or two of LA hot sauce. Now I'm working on the muscadine wine.

The local grocer had some Wieners made by my favorite Pork Purveyor on sale so it beanie weenie with canned beans tonight. What can I say?

Boiled a couple of smoked ham hocks off the bone last night, cooked them with beans tonight and added biscuits. Simple poor folk food. Had pork belly and foo at a coworkers house this past weekend for the Asian new year, pretty tasty and sporty.

Hard to beat Russ.

Beenie weenie here as well.

Except with smoked Dakota brats and canned Stagg chili with BEANS!

Frisee salad w/ poppyseed dressing.

Also mac n cheese for the grandkid

If I warent so lazy, I'd post the chili we enjoyed at a bull sale today. It looked a lot like chili.

These are what I remember, or something similar:

They were difficult for me to just eat a fresh one at the time. I was tougher then.

Now that I see Bonnie's has them, I may try to find a nursery here that orders from them and see if I can get a few plants.

Looks like a chili soup.

Ya, slowly building tolerance !

Speaking of hot peppers, years ago I was working on a big multi family project in Santa Barbara CA. We were staying at a house the company had rented for us in a small coastal town (Carpenteria) which had a small manufacturing firm that naturally employed 99% Mexican women who would gather at the city park for lunch. After they had eaten they would coat their lips with salt ( like a margarita glass). When I asked one of the locals what that was all about they told me it was to help neutralize the the hot peppers they had with lunch.
I've never seen anything like it before or since but the sight of those old fat mamacitas setting around on the grass yacking and looking like circus clowns was pretty funny. Anybody else ever see that kinda thing.....Fats?.....Cali?

Yup salt does work. As kids we would get lemon or lime wedges sprinkle salt on them to suck on wipe on lips after eating hot salsa or peppers. Salt or the citric acid by itself does work but not quite as well. I suspect a salt anion interrupts the capsicum affect on pain receptors. Citric acid as well breaks up capsicum oil. High fat dairy products like ice cream work as well and tastes better.

Another thing is saladitos, which is salted fruit. We would stick them in a lemon or lime wedges to suck on.

A bit of sugar can calm down that fire. Finger, to tongue tip.

Unless that finger was used to de seed & remove the peppers membranes !

As has been noted wash hands after as well as before working the hots. Don't ask how I know.

Our daughter called poison control after working hot peppers, her hands were burning. The told her to soak them in milk.

Yeah, I happened to wipe my eye, Monday night. Thankfully, I'd washed thoroughly, although it still burned for a bit !

BTDT too !

It was not my eye Paul. Shortly after I left the washroom.

Wifey brought home Tex mex enchiladas

Found old bag of fettuchine and a jar of alfredo sauce (use by 2/20/14) in the pantry.

Had some fresh Italian sausage, so I threw it in the fryin’ pan.

It was all good on this cold sleety evening. Finishing my wine as I compose this addition.

Home made sloppy joe's, with some some homemade pickles on top with a roasted jalapeño on the side and a cold brew. Some fresh made guacamole with fresh made restaurant style chips.

Happy birthday Owl.

We were out and about (caught a movie and lunch) so frozen pizza tonight but the best frozen I have ever had. I started a small pot of chili leaving the beans out this afternoon. We will hit a play in the city early tomorrow afternoon. Back home I'll throw the chili on the cooktop, toss in the can of beans and be eating 20 minutes later.

RON�S HEARTY BEAN SOUP

2 lbs. Great Northern beans ("dry", NOT pre-soaked, rinsed well, foreign objects removed)
2 Large onions, chopped medium
1 Large head of garlic, minced
1 Tbs ea. Olive oil and butter
2 Ribs of celery (no leaves), chopped medium fine
� lb. Slice of lean smoked ham steak, rind removed & ham cubed (1/2 inch) 1 Large ham hock thoroughly wrapped & tied-off in cheese cloth
1-2 Tbs. Frank�s (formally Durkee�s) Hot Cayenne Pepper Sauce (to taste)
1 8 oz. can of Hunt�s Tomato Sauce
1 Large or 2 medium carrots, sliced, then diced medium (� to � inch)
4 Tbs. Bac-O�s Chips
1-2 Tbs. Hickory-flavored liquid smoke (to taste-Wright's Hickory-flavored is good)
1 Tbs. Lawry�s Season Salt

1) Add butter & olive oil to pot, saut� onions & garlic until softened.

2) Carefully cut rind off of the smoked ham slice in as few pieces as possible.

3) Place all ingredients (including the ham rind) in a large pot and cover.

4) Add enough water to cover ingredients plus an additional three (3) inches of water.

5) Bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low and allow to �heavy simmer� (somewhat more than a simmer, bubbles constantly rising) for 4 hours, stirring occasionally.

6) Check the beans for �doneness� (beans should be cooked all the way through, but still very firm). If not done, heavy simmer an additional half hour or so. Check beans again.

7) Adjust seasoning (add more Season Salt if needed). Remove ham rind from pot before serving. Serve with freshly-chopped onion.

Next time i'll make sure to have some sautéed sauerkraut, onions and apples. Funny you mention Ms. Post. Parents sent me to her school etiquette classes when I was 13 as well as Arthur Murray. As you can see the lessons have faded from memory,

Just sportin' FC. I understand ms Post has us using the fork left handed. BUT!, I'm right handed!

Paul,

Those braised venison shanks look awesome.

What was your cooking method on those? Roast pan with vegetables? That's my go-to.

Seared the shanks in dutch oven & remove, add vegetables & sautée, add red wine & stock & can of diced tomatoes & bring to boil.

Add back meat & fresh herbs, lid on & into slow oven for 4 hours !

Or somesuch !

Deb makes these & I get to play sous chef, for a change.

I'll get the real recipe for you.

https://www.thespruceeats.com/venison-osso-buco-2313773

Ingredients

■ 4 pounds venison osso buco (or elk osso buco, or whole venison shanks*)
■ 1 to 2 pinches kosher salt
■ Pinch black pepper (freshly ground)
■ 2 tablespoons butter
■ 2 tablespoons olive oil
■ 1 large onion (finely chopped)
■ 1 large carrot (finely chopped)
■ 2 medium stalks celery (finely chopped)
■ 2 large cloves garlic (finely chopped)
■ 3/4 cup red wine (preferably burgundy/pinot noir or zinfandel)
■ 14 1/2 ounce can of diced tomatoes (drained, or 2 fresh tomatoes, diced)
■ 4 cups beef broth (homemade or packaged, not canned)
■ 2 bay leaves
■ 2 teaspoons fresh thyme
■ Optional: 1 to 2 tsp. cornstarch
■ 3 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
■ 1 large clove garlic (minced)
■ 1 teaspoon lemon zest (finely grated fresh)

Steps to Make It

Preheat oven to 325 F. On the stovetop heat a Dutch oven or large heavy pot over medium-high heat. Season the venison shanks with Kosher salt and several good grinds of freshly ground pepper.

Add the butter and olive oil to the pot over medium-high heat, When the butter has stopped foaming, add the venison shanks two at a time, and brown them on all sides. Transfer the browned shanks to a platter.

Reduce heat to medium, and sauté the chopped onion until golden brown, adding a little more butter and olive oil or both if necessary.

Add the chopped carrot and celery, and sauté until tender, about 7 minutes. Add garlic, and sauté 1 minute (take care to don’t let it burn).

Stir in the red wine and deglaze the pot by scraping up the crusty bits with a wooden spoon or spatula. Add the tomatoes, beef broth, bay leaves, and thyme to pot. Return the browned shanks to the pot along with any juices that have accumulated on the platter.

Cover the pot and braise in the oven until venison is tender about 2-1/2 to 3 hours. When tender a fork or knife will easily pierce the meat and separate it. If the venison hasn't become tender, just keep cooking it.

When the osso buco is tender, remove the shanks from the pot to a warm platter. Put the pot on the stovetop over high heat and bring the pan juices to a boil. Allow them to reduce by half, about 5 minutes.

If you want a thicker sauce, mix equal parts cornstarch and water in a small bowl, then whisk into the sauce. You can also mix softened butter and flour together, and add it to the boiling sauce.

Mix the parsley, garlic and lemon zest in a small bowl. Serve the osso buco, topped with sauce and several sprinkles of the gremolata.

These all work too !

I like burnt ends on bacon and brisket...

Brisket yes, bacon no.

It takes me a while to cook bacon the way I like it, completely cooked but zero burnt.

Rib steak, baked potato, salad.

I am not a bacon snob at all. I'll wolf it down in any way, shape or form.....

I sure as hell wouldn't turn down the bacon you showed. I'm not unreasonably picky.

Bacon? You can cut it, chop it, or even puree it. I'll eat it.

Coho on the grill. A baked sweet potato and a good salad.
Tonight I may fry some good Louisiana Oysters. Dipped in egg wash rolled in club cracker meal fried hot till golden brown. Still juicy inside.

Pot roast tonight.

Friday night was steamed walleye with Thai seasoning, coconut basmati rice & sweet chilli sauce, with a side of brussel sprouts sautéed in bacon fat !

Saturday night was pork chops n beans n brussies again.

Sunday night, home made bacon, tomato, cheese, guacamole & spinach quesadillas.

Sunday pot roast for us.

I just sort of winged the seasoning. Salt and pepper, white pepper, sage, thyme, garlic and onion powder.

Carrots, onion, potato, and parsnip.

Was very little left.

Is suspect here shortly Jim with them boys one pot roast wont be enough.

TRUFF DAT !!

When Doug was playing football, well, let's just say, it necessitated a Costco membership !

CFT - Jim Beam & coke !!

Dice onion & bacon & sautée + however much red chilli fake you can handle, once at texture you like, deglaze pan with a good lug of dry white wine & cook out till most of the moisture is gone, add heavy cream & bring to boil. Reduce heat & simmer while you do your pasta.

Add a spoonful of the starchy pasta water to the sauce & pour over pasta.

Add cracked pepper & "zested" parmesan cheese.

My family like it hot !

& the longer you cook down the bacon, onion & chilli flakes, the more intense the heat becomes !

Do what? I broke it down into 3 pieces (left ventricle, septum and right ventricle) then trimmed it up, soaked it in worchestshire, olive oil and red vinegar. Put some fajita rub on it that I mixed up real quick and threw it on the grill until 120 deg or so.

Spectacular. Wouldn't want it a degree warmer.

Fine work!

Cold for Oklahoma today. We had beef vegetable soup with grilled cheese sandwiches made with homemade bread. DELICIOUS.

Shrimp and octopus cocktail with a cold Negra Modello.

Some tri-tip, grilled asparagus, and some caprese salad. Gotta cut it up with the knife I made, of course.

I spatchcocked a home-grown chicken on the gas grill. Had a couple sardine cans of miss cutie wood on the fire too. Did. Not. Suck.

Went over to the local BBQ place and got some pork, some burgoo, and wifey made potato salad and slaw. The only thing missing was cornbread. For those that don't know, burgoo is very similar to Brunswick stew....only better.

Rather chilly here (by Texas Hill Country standards) at 30 and dropping so the fire is lit and my wife is making potato leak soup.

Green onions on top & 5 good splashes of tabasco in mine.

I have a pot of red a cooking!

Drinking a Shiner Bock......fixing to put Yellow Rose of Texas on a loop here in a second.

The plan is, broiled ham, and cheese sandwiches, French fries. The last pineapple ring for a kicker.

Pork temple cutlets, floured, seasoned, fried, and finished in the oven, mashed potatoes with some gravy from the cutlets, can of green beans drained and fried in the pan that already has bacon and onion browned in it, cabbage salad (cabbage sliced, carrots peeled, green onions sliced small) with sugar/oil/vinegar/salt/pepper/celery salt dressing. Joint venture between the wife and me.

That sounds good John, I wish my wife shared my fondness for the pork cuts.

Just got done - everything turned out excellently!

Wabigoon

That appears to pretty slim pickins to fuel up for the weather you have up there!

BLTs here and they were quite good I must say.

Stuffed chicken hips, mashed, red beets.
Got up at the normal 4:30, started the electric smoker,
rubbed 2 10# butts, and got them smoking.
About 5 they were done. No plans for them other th an vac seal and freeze one.
The other will probably just erode away over the next week.

I like this Digital Char broil. Was afraid it wouldn't have the power to maintain temp.
We were single digits this morning, 20's all day. It worked perfectly.

A while ago EdM sent me a bunch of stuff so I could try and make an actual batch of chili.

I did as the recipe said, simmered a bunch of dried chile and browned the meat.

My goodness. Never had anything like it before.

We all ate the hell out of it. Onion, cheese, home made sour cream and a couple Fritos as a garnish.

Made Tex's corn bread too.

[Linked Image]

Thanks very much Ed!

It was sure a hit!

[Linked Image]

What kind of peppers, Jim?

Today I stopped in a little store that a couple Mexicans took over.
They have a in display of dried peppers.
Now that I have a source, I need some direction.

Very simple last night. Venison back strap, cut 1/2 - 3/4 ", salt & pepper both sides & pound to "minute steaks".

Sautée onions, meat was 30-40 seconds per side in bacon grease. Heat tortilla, add dijon mustard, layer of onions, meat & more onions.

Frogmore Stew tonight except I am going to try it with Argentine pink shrimp instead of our NC shrimp.

Bought a whole locally raised & butchered lamb, earlier in the week.

Lamb shoulder chops tonight !

Tonight's supper was a medium-sized bowl of leftover pinto beans with pork over freshly made rice. = YUM.

My beloved Darla is still in CA taking care of her sick kid sister, so I'm OUT of her wonderful homemade Sicilian foods, that she made before flying out. = !@#$%!

Home raised rib steak, hash browns. Too lazy for a picture.

I was to busy and tired to make a pot of Barts but I wanted to try Barry's "Frito Pie" so I bought some Wolf Brand Chili without beans.
It was just OK but the Fritos saved it. I'll definitely be trying some Fritos in some of my home made chili in the near future.

I like fritos beacuse they are just three ingredients: corn, corn oil and salt.

I also like the big scoop vs the regular. Scoop the chili like dip. I bought the Dennisons no meat.

Thanks for the recipe.

I'm going to make a half batch of your recipe and a half batch of the pinto recipe Roger posted on the hunters campfire if I can find a small amount of smoked Brisket or something similar at the deli.. That'll take care of a pound of beans and since I'm just feeding me half pound batches are perfect.

Here's the recipe Roger posted if you missed it. It looks simple and tasty just like your recipe does and just the way I like it.

I usually like to make batches with enough for three....maybe four....days but like you say "beans freeze well" so I'll do that once in a while too.

In this instance I haven't tried either recipe yet so small batches make sense...or at least to my old feeble mind it does.

Any of you other guys buying local, rather than commercial ?

This year, we've got a whole heritage breed pig & a whole lamb, + chickens & eggs.

The flavour of all, far surpasses commercial.

Nice Paul. I like the pork we buy in Ontario, store bought of course. I don't know what the feed base is, barley, or corn?

To answer the question, most of our beef is home raised, locker processed.

Yep, the different people we buy from, all have their "product" processed locally too, at Griffiths & labeled under cloverbelt farmers market !

As feed, I think barley is rated at %99 of corn.

Truth be told thats the first time Ive cooked a bprime rib roast with the ribs removed before cooking. Seasoned, rolled and hogtied it came out better than I expected. Also given the fact It had to wait an hour to be served because people were late for dinner.

Oh yeah and the wifes salad was pretty good as well.

Oxtail soup! First I've had in years. My wife mentioned she'd had it a couple times as a kid and liked it. Dang stuff has gotten expensive, now that the dang TV gourmets have ruined cheap cuts. Cuts like skirt/flank/oxtails/tongue have gone from poor folks food to the dreaded "Trendy".

Geno

It looks good!

Looks good Geno.

Taco Tuesday today with home made corn tortillas and leftover primerib roast.

For all the crap we throw at WalMarto they get some good....interesting cuts on the shelves.

Thats where I got my hogs head last fall, and where I bought my oxtail.

I am taking a fat beef to butcher here on the 20th. I reckon I might ask for the tail.

Maybe a brisket too....soes I can turn it into corned beef or pastrami.

Man alive youse guys sure eat well!

'bender,

was that a bird left over from spring or summer? Or just "old".

On your recommendation, I might see if I can get a few this year. Feed store should be getting chicks in soon, so I'll have to make up my mind. Not sure I want to start any for a few weeks as I go under the knife for a new knee in a week.. But if I can get a late group, I can butcher them before fall maybe.

Geno

Jim,

My wife got the recipe off the net, for all I know it's one of the ones the other guys have posted. next time she fires up her laptop she's going to send it to me. She made a substitution or two, as we don't always have everything called for and we ain't running 15 miles into town just for a spice shaker of "savory".

This recipe sorta reminded me a bit of Beef Bourguignon. All I know is I liked it. Told my wife last night that next time we might make it with stew beef. Friggen beef tailbones are selling here for $6 a lb. Seems I remember they used to be cheap and down in the "ethnic" end of the meat counter where one could find hog maws, beef tongue and shanks, and chicken gizzards.......................you know, stuff us ethnic Eye Tal Ians might eat.

I hope that butcher can save you some of the "parts" Jim. If I ever did the same, my wife would be PO'd as I'd be having him save the head to go in the pit I was digging as he was butchering! Nothing like cabeza tacos!

I always wondered, on those home butchering deals, does the butcher get the hide to sell?

I hope that all goes well for you Jim. For me it would be so satisfying to eat some beef I raised from "babyhood".

That's grand Charlie, that you've gained back some weight.

My back is shot too, but I've got the knee operation next week, so the back is one hold for now. Don't know if I'm going with another round of shots in the back or going to try something new next time.

I drew a cow elk tag in AZ for next fall and wanted the knee fixed first so I can try to get back into some kind of shape (round is a shape, right

) for hunting season. Hopefully, after the knee work is done I can get something done on the back. It's either that or tylenol and a hot pad.

Good luck on further recovery Charlie.

Geno

PS, that round chili looks tasty.

Not sure I want to start any for a few weeks as I go under the knife for a new knee in a week.. But if I can get a late group, I can butcher them before fall maybe.

Whole frozen bird from last summer. We raised a dozen.

Having been tbrough tbe TKA biz (2x), I'd recommend waiting at least 2 months post sx before getting birds. Does your feed store have arrival dates you can order for?

We typically get ours early June. Start them in a kid's wading tub in the garage for about 2 weeks, and then move them to the pen outside. We butcher at about +/- 9 weeks.

Yeah, I think he'll do arrival dates as to the best of my recollection that's what we did last year. I'm not sure how late though. Mid march surgery + 8 weeks = mid May arrival of birds. I'm going in to the feed store in the next couple of days so I'll ask then if I can get them that late. Not as cold here as where you are, but not a big population either and I think he only orders for about six weeks, arrivals start right about now. I got mine around the third week in March last year.

Thanks for the advice. I'll see if I can get a late order, if not, I wait for next year. Or I let my hens sit on some eggs and grow some "mixed genetics" chickies for the pot.

Like your choice in cutlery sir. I have a whole block of those things on my counter.

Also, you can order directly from a hatchery. You would have to get to your post office pronto - PO will call upon arrival. We ordered that way for many years.

My mom always made her own biscuits. My aunt didn't. She would always buy Hungry Jacks which is what those used to be called.( They gobble them down and the plate comes back for hungry jack ) remember that? Any way one day my aunt was running behind on Sunday dinner, which for us it the south is lunch, she said oh no I don't have any biscuits. She asked me to go down to the store and buy some Happy Jacks. We called them that ever since but that was a long time ago.

Frozen, breaded flounder fillets done in the Hair Friar - accompanied by my not-so-secret tartar sauce, "stove-baked" beans, Kraft M&C, cabbage salad (green and red cabbage, carrot, green onion with a dressing of sugar, oil, vinegar, salt, pepper, and celery salt).

That sure sounds good John, fish chowder here.

Let them thaw to soften. Lightly season and brush w butter. They cook real fast so about three min one one side and two on the other. That’s what I’ve done in the past w those about size of silver dollar. You’ll w ant to have all ready to go so you can serve right off the grill. Darn things will make a rabbit hug a hound.

If putting a scorch on them in CI, I use salt and pepper grinders, and granulated garlic.

Have the CI medium hot with some butter melted. A couple minutes per side is plenty. Ill set the scallops in a wide ring and shrink it when I flip them. Use tongs.

They can be eaten raw, so if you err, do so on the undercooked side.

Our scallops are frozen. Nothing wrong with that. As mentioned, avoid the sodium phosphate (wet variety) if you can. The 'dry' (untreated scallops) are preferred.

Grilled an bacon wrapped. Use the pre-cooked bacon otherwise tha scallops are wristrocket ammoby the time the bacon is cooked.

No worries, JM!

Thanks for the clarification!

Did spicy, candied, thick cut bacon on the smoker tonight.

I made a pot of vegetable beef soup. It was good and will be dinner tomorrow.

One of my favorites, prime rib, salad, potatoes, Pako's IPA & a Blacktooth Brown ale for the wife..

California gumbo. I don’t care much for green bell pepper so I used pasilla chile. Along with red and yellow bells, onion, okra, andouille, Louisiana red hot links, shrimp, and muscles.

It ended up being baked ham, cheesy potatoes, lettuce salad with home made blue cheese, green beans, German chocolate cake and vanilla ice cream.

Oh, and lots of Wild Turkey.

Wife missed a fine dinner.

Last night, blackened catfish on the grill. I love blackened catfish!

Last night was fried flounder, fried oysters, fried okra, slaw, and a cake of corn bread.

Well that was good. prime New York strip, tater, zucchini and onions, garlic bread,

Kill Bossa a la Pole, fried potatoes, stove-baked beans, and ill-tempered German (sour Kraut).

Fried Bar S franks, a sneak of tomorrows cheesy potatoes. Yes, I know we eat better than most on the 'fire!!

Junk food. Bought an old Griswold Aebleskiver pan a few days ago. After stripping and reseasoning I made my first batch ever. I put Nutella in the middle, so Nutella aebleskiver for dinner.

Wasn’t the disaster I thought it was going to be

Shredded BBQ chicken sliders and slaw.

Hopefully the last cool front of year, so we had chicken and sausage gumbo. Had a fresh tangy potato salad rather than rice. Spoonful of it in the middle is fine eating.

Gumbo and potato salad.......I'm speechless.

Haha!

Now, now you boys......

Iowa chops, StoveTop stuffing for pork, fresh green beans done in the air fryer with lemon juice and olive oil, the wife's home-made cranberry sauce and relish, and three bean salad.

The noon meal was a good one. Burgers on the grill, cheesy potatoes, Bush beans, fruit salad, I'm still full.

Who the heck knows? #3 Daughter home from College and Mother are out screwing around. Im having a drink.😜

Hey !!! I'm learning.

The pic doesn't do the food justice. They look more "browned" than they were. Wife dipped the thighs, skin on, in balsamic vinegar wash before dredging them a panko, flour, thyme, salt, pepper and fresh rosemary coating. Then a tad more balsamic on top.

Lamb is on the menu apparently. We slaughtered ours a few weeks ago, so Sunday was braised lamb shoulder, carrots and potatoes, roasted brussel sprouts, and a nice cabernet.

Good lord help me. All is ok though. I grilled some fine pork chops tonight and told the wife to do the veges. She did butternut squash which for me is just ok, carrots which I love and mashed taters. Well the taters turned out to be mashed cauliflower that looked like taters. They actually weren't too bad.

Bay scallop chowder and hot dogs.

Cheese tortellini and sausage with sauce.

Got a mega-pack of chicker thighs at Costco laxt weekend. Thawed one (turned out to have 3 thighs) and put it in a salt/sugar brine cor about 3 hours. Grilled with 2 sardine cans of mesquite smoking. Was outfuckingstanding!

Salad on the side.

Last night was roast beef in brown gravy, taters, carrots, green beans, rolls and ice cold milk.

Outstanding but would have been off the charts if I had bought the nice apple crumb pie I saw @ our little store..

Tonight. Pollock fillets rolled in seasoned corn meal, red taters and cole slaw. Ice cold milk.

I made that baked cube steak Denny posted a while back.

For being so simple that's a dam good meal.

Hope that it turned out nice and tender for you, Charlie and so glad you enjoyed it.

It did Denny.....I'll definitely have it again.

They weren't lying when they said you can cut it with a fork.

Add 3 drops of this elixir to the recipe and you'll be in the fast lane to heaven.

Kind of an Asian buffet here in Costa Rica. Pretty good with really well prepared Miso soup that was a staple for breakfast when I worked/lived in the Middle East.

Cheap Chuck steak souse vide/seared. Dutch oven beer potatoes and corn bread. More of a corn cake tho 50/50 corn meal/flour.

Likely just munch here tonight, we have a Shepard's pie in the works for tomorrow.

I made a batch of Boudin yesterday so tonight it's Boudin dipped in cracker crumbs and fried with some Okra and Stewed Tomato's on the side.

I didn't stuff the Boudin in casings this time because I've decided I like it breaded and fried best.

Today I made some Hunter Sausage.

I'd never made it before but the recipe called for Bacon and Beer so I had to try some.

Denny, both !

Use the Thai Kitchen one for convenience - buy a 3 litre bottles from Costco.

In between, Deb has a secret recipe & makes her own, if we are out.

Both are good !

When I say super secret, I mean, I think she found the recipe on Pintrest !

Just bought a half gallon (2 X 32 oz) off Amazon.$13ish to the door.

BTW, will Deb share ?

I'm sure I could "coax" it out of her !

My wife baked a couple of cod filets lightly topped with olive oil in parchment paper then pulled and topped them with a lemon caper sauce sided with a caprese salad. She did well.

Very Nice, I don’t have a deep skillet/chicken fryer yet , but I’d use one a lot I think..

I do have a lid off a Vollrath chicken fryer, some day I might find the rest of it for a decent price and complete it.

Black bean soup and corn bread tonight.

Popcorn night here.

A crab cake and a mixed greens salad.

Chicken enchiladas tonight. Still haven't got my sauce down to the way I like it.

I had Pinto Beans & Bacon with hot buttered Biscuits last night.

I used Bacon instead of the Smoked Shanks I've been using the last 15yrs or so and made Biscuits instead of the traditional Cornbread so it was like rediscovering the Pinto Bean......delicious!

I experimented with the man bun but I had to grow one on each side of my head because that's the only place there's any hair so I gave up on that idea and targeted the pinto.bean instead.

Awesome pot roast. Possibly best ever.

Seared golf ball sized chunks of chuck dredged in flour in OO in the CI skillet followed by braising in a mire poix liquid neither of which I had done before. Threw it all into the PC.

Tongue tender as well as almost a quart of fabulous gravy.

I done good.

A left over pork rib, and a handful of potato chips.

Plateful of Pulled Pork Nachos, and yes it was real good.

Its nice to pull one off once in a while aint it!

I got kinda drunk and over cooked everything tonight.

Thankfully everyone else was kinda drunk too. Served to dull the horror of the food a bit.

Sounds like a party, Jim.

I got a jug of WT that needs some attention !!!!

Haven't seen it down here, Denny.

Found it when we were in Belize where it's made quite awhile ago, Greg. Not commonly found on shelves but the internet is changing that. GREAT stuff.

Tonight was open face roast beef 'n' dark brown gravy sammies with ice cold milk. Sooooooo good.

Pressure cooker carnitas tomorrow night.

YUM !!!

May be time of an intervention. Im addicted to this stuff!!

CF elk backstrap with home fried taters prepared in purest of lard! Ok. Mebbe not that pure. But experienced!!!

Very good!

No,

When I return from a hunt, I’m generally pressed for time due to family situations. So I usually drive to town and drop my critter off at my fav meat processor. Let them do it. Im sure they have some big mechanical device they use. Yeah, I know it’s cheatin’ but it saves me lots of time to attend to other things. (Seems every time I attempt to begin a time sensitive project I am forced by circumstances to stop in midstream. lt’s a long story).

Elk meat loaf cooked with diced potatoes on the sides.

Jeeze I like meat loaf!

I love it too, but beef is more to my taste!!!

I still got over 100 lbs of ground elk in the freezer and meatloaf is easy on my choppers!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Got enough left over for sammiches!!! Yum!!!!!!

Love me a good meatloaf sammich

I like seasoned salt, ketchup and a slice of American cheese on my white bread meat loaf sandwiches.

Wife always makes two loafs when she cooks.....so we have enough for sandwiches.

120 grams of 99% fat free ground turkey
100 grams of carrots
100 grams of squash and jalapeno peppers
10 grams of extra virgin olive oil
1/4 teaspoon of sea salt

Whats this grams shît?

We had a couple of small burgers w/o buns, Swiss on mine and cheddar on hers, and split a six pack of cream cheese filled bacon wrapped jalapeno peppers. Mine washed with a martini, hers a glass of Chardonnay.

Sausage Stew.

First package of burger from the beef we finished on barley.

Had her butchered a month ago.

Cooked in cast iron.

Pretty dang good. I reckon the burger is 70% at most.

I know I'm something of a gut eater, but there are few things better than a pickled tongue sandwich. Good rye with spicy mustard, a bit of sauerkraut (the home made stuff, not the jarred crap), thinly sliced red onion and a beer. Or three.

I am pretty sure you have mentioned that before.

Its not a big leap for me....I am something of a gut eater myself!

I might ask for directions after while.

Wife loves pickled tongue and pigs feet.

Me meh, not my thing.

Got a corned beef on the stove.

Gathered up a cabbage, carrot, onion and potato.

Using Meathead Goldwyn's recipe again.

Made some 8 bean and left over spiral cut ham from Easter yesterday, damn good!!

Sunday gravy today, Italian sausage, antelope meatballs, elk burger, and some noodles, god damn er I love this stuff...

Haha! Nice schittin work!

Wheres them taters?

10 years later and Im still finding those nerf bullets in strange places. Attic, basement, hedges.

The taters ended up over cooked a bit.

In the picture they are blended in with the cabbage and onion.

There is currently a dart in the soup pot.

Ma enjoyed the dinner....gave us a pass on the combat at the table.

Stopped by the local butcher shop to get a few Montana ribeyes for dinner...as always, the best beef around.

Judging by what you had for dinner I would say that you are justified in identifying as a Montana person.

My buddy saw an add on craigslist for Angus beef and he bought one. The guy brought 15-20 up from the lower 48 that were supposed to go to China, but the deal got squashed due to tariffs or something. Grass fed, no antibiotics, no horomones, etc. from what he said. Anyways I bought a 1/4 of it and had t-bones the last two nights. [bleep] good tasting beef! $800 for 185#s or so beats the hell out of what I can get at the local Fred Meyer.

Ya man, nothing rivals good beef.... Looks good bud

I have a 1/4 of the finest eating beef I've ever had being processed this week. My cousin raises natural fed Angus and Herefords. Raised on corn silage topped with ground feed (oats & corn) and alfalfa hay.

The T-bones from his beef are simply mouth watering.

Tonight will be 35 grams of steel cut oatmeal, 150 grams of egg whites, and 30 grams of Ghost protein powder, cereal milk flavor. Breakfast for supper, can't beat it.

Frozen corn dogs, chicken patties, chicken nuggets, french fries and tater tots.

That sounds good Big Jim, running a disk till after 8:30, popcorn.

We got a little moisture yesterday Richard.

Got a day off. It was getting dry....could not get the cultivator in the ground.

Glad you guys are rolling.

Big Jim, wrong section for farming. The high steppers have been planting corn for over a week, at Wabigoon, land, and cattle, (joke), we muddle along. Farmers are hard to please, not enough rain, too much rain. Glad you received some needed rain!

Tomato and cucumber salad and asparagus

Yep, that'll do !

I pounded a split boneless chicken breast thin and cut into two, stuffed each with basil pesto and a spear of Gouda cheese, rolled them tight and rolled them again in olive oil then onto a seasoned (garlic, Parmesan, parsley) plate of breadcrumbs. In the oven at 375 for 20 minutes rolled half way through. Combined with my wife's salad of cucumber, tomato, bell pepper, artichoke hearts and goat cheese tossed with olive oil, red wine vinegar, salt and pepper. Quick and tasty.

Nice shrimp bowl, Paul. Thanks for sharing. Good shrimp is just not available here as it has no flavor even after trying to explain to the wholesaler . Order on Monday pick up on Thursday . I can get more flavor out of a slice of white bread.

They're darn proud of their hot dogs tho'.

Yeah, it's pretty much the same here.

I grew up, eating fresh prawns straight off the boat, in Australia !

I try to beat the no flavour thing, by adding spices & seasonings. Kinda works, sometimes Meh !

I'll Google "artificial shrimp" and see what pops up.

It will be a bag of Walmart, raw pacific shrimp !

YAY !!!! WHOOPEEE !!!!

. Thanks.

Dan, the steelhead is white meat?.
Does it have the "liver" after taste like salmon?
I can eat most white meat fish if its cooked right.
I just cant go the salmon liver after taste.

Nope much milder than salmon

Cheers Mate !

A buddy of mine catches them in the "pond" (Lake Superior) off Thunder Bay, Ontario & says they're really fatty, compared to the salt water run fish.

Something about their main food source !

Some kind of cajun flavored sausage the wife pan fried. Those are pan drippings and juice from the sausage. From that sausage maker I posted about before.

Yup, Good ol' fashion meat and mac with a simple salad.

Sorta tongue in cheek my friend. Basically its moms' meatloaf in a large baking pan with a more than generous amount of veggies scattered around the loaf similar to a beef roast presentation . Sky's the limit on vegetable choice. Don't forget to make a thick brown gravy with all the wonderful juices.

Formal attire optional

Spices used?

Onion powder, minced garlic, paprika, fresh rosemary. Nothing special Ed just a working mans meatloaf to your liking. For us it's the veggies that make the dish. Celery salt too.

Check. Up next ham bone bean soup from homemade stock and ham left over from holidays.

Caught wife trying to throw my gallon milk jugs of liquid gold and bags of ham away.

Good time though as rain has settled in over the next week.

Made a barley pilaf and roast chicken last night.

Sauté diced carrot, shallot, garlic, and celery in a bit of olive oil and butter, add barley and slivered almonds. Add in chicken or veg stock, bay leaf, salt and pepper, cover and simmer.

Chicken pieces were just tossed with salt, pepper, paprika, fresh thyme, a whole head of garlic split and broke open, couple lemon slices and a bit of olive oil. Dumped it out on a baking sheet and 350 for about 45 minutes turning a couple times. Put the chicken on a rack and cranked the oven to 425 for the last 10-15 minutes. Crisped it up nice.

That barley pilaf came out killer. Will definitely do it again.

Yep crustless . I’m back on a low carb kick, I wintered a little to well this year.

That one was from a few days ago.

Hell I think about anything goes fine with egg pie.

It’s ready now in fact! also used smoked paprika in it, turns it a bit red.

Albers recipe, grandson helped get all ingredients ready and mix. We are watching it rise in his great great great grandmas 1940's CI Griswold skillet currently.

Finally dug it out of the basement and halfassed cleaned and seasoned it. Been 20 years since we last used it. If this skillet could talk

Done. Grandson's first CI skillet cornbread in the history books.

I cooked a roast beef.

Mashed potatoes and gravy, green bean casserole.

Bought a key lime pie for dessert.

Congratulations that is a fine lookin Cornbread!
Cornbread and beans . . . a meal fit for a king!

No, I just throwed it all in the green beans and boiled em, then greased em up with a tablespoon or so of butter. I’m tryin’ to eat more hearth healthy! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

I always have dinner early on Sunday.

Brisket and carrots for me. Made potatoes,corn sticks and muffins for the carb eaters. Going to miss my corn bread for awhile.

I wasn’t the brisket carver.. with the grain next time! oh well

Currently making for tonight:

Pork roast with wild mushrooms, Parmesan grits, and greens.

Looked for a regular shoulder/butt roast, no love, got a blade roast instead. Bunch of garlic cloves punched into the meat, little S&P, sugar, and a bunch of other schit from the spice cabinet on the roast and tossed it in the fridge over night before roasting in the oven.

Kale trimmed and chopped and sautéed with rehydrated wild mushrooms and shallots. Minced garlic, S&P, etc.... The liquor from rehydrating the shrooms will make a killer stock to finish it.

Grits simply simmered in salted water then finished with heavy cream and a couple handfuls of good Parmesan. I have a bunch of fresh parsley I’ll probably chop and fold in.

Couple spoonfuls of grits topped with greens and shrooms and then sliced pork!

Wish you were closer, Blake.
We just left mom's.
Roast Beef and Moose, taters and gravy (of course), stuffing,
pickled red beets, homemade pickles, last year's frozen sweet corn.

That was 5 hours ago, Beth said she is getting hungry, and your spread sounds good.
I think she is making a sammy.

She just brought me half a buffalo chicken sub and an Old German.

Sammich and beer without being ask!
I have a good woman!

Hah! Me too, cousin!

A caribou roast your mom made is still one of the best game meals I’ve ever had the privilege to lift a lip over!

I was gonna ask....what's would you need an old German hanging around for?

We are gonna have a steak sampler tonight.

Got a package of ribs and t bones out.

Two per package....1 1/2 inch per steak.

Might be nice enough to grill, might just pan fry them.....(my favorite).

This will be a heifer that was open. We decided to finish her on barley. So far so good.....but have not tried a steak yet.

Old German beer Premium Lager. "The world knows no finer".

Was a local brewer before I was knee high to a grasshopper.
Everyone here drank it, or Rolling Rock.
Honestly, I thought it was bad years ago.
Cruising the local beer mall, I saw it, $13/case.

"Haven't had that in decades. $13, cant lose much".

Several years later, it's all I buy.

Just a light lager.
And I shouldn't even say that. My only beer knowledge is, "do i like it".
And I don't like most of the fancy schmance brews.
Except Honey Weise. That's my standby

Originally Posted by Dillonbuck

Pretty sure that’s all that matters!

I suspect I would like the hell out of it.

My standby's are Bud, PBR and High Life.

Bud more than the others these days.

PBR and High Life never go on sale!

PBR in these parts is damn expensive relatively speaking compared to other run of the mill American Lagers. Never see it on sale around here either and there is probably 50 places that sell beer within a couple of miles of my house.

Good Lord that's a meal!!!....

Was mothers day, a bit late.
Last few years, I had dinner for the moms, and my wife.
For some reason, mother wanted to do it this year.

No ones will back me up, she likes the table crowded.

When we were on the farm and she was a young bride,
5 or 6 kids from the nearest town would work for my dad in the summer.
They lived there Monday to Friday, she learned to cook big, 6 teenage boys
Doing sawmill and farm work can put away the groceries.

Poor kids (mostly one family) they got some spending money, school clothing money,
And their parents didn't have to feed them.

Times have changed.

Pizza and beer. For dessert... muscle relaxers and whisky.

I made slow cooked chicken and rice with carrots for my munchkin, she always destroys anything I make her😀 I'm having a ham sandwich. 👍

I brought home a bunch of bison cube steaks out of the ranch reefer last summer. My aunt says she didn’t order them(?) when she had her yearly bison processed. They were just in the boxes. Said I could have a bunch!! Woohoo!

Well I dunno why she don’t order them, I chicken fried a pair (Whole time I was thinking about you Jim Conrad!). They were awesome, tender, and easy on my choppers! Fresh garden green beans, radishes, and creamed potatoes to complement them! It was yum!

Ribs, pulled pork, and brisket. What a great meal it was !

Smoked a 120 lb whole hog Saturday night. 2 kegs of beer and a bunch of friends. Not a morsel of pig was left.

How'd you do it?

Today was day one of phase one (of four) heading to ketosis. My wife and I are doing it via a program from our GP. Dinner was orange roughy and green beans. Time for our long discussed lifestyle change to get kick started.

Grilled ribeye, corn on the cob, and salt potatoes. The steaks I picked out are "too thick" for my grandma so she had pizza. More for me!

You’ll know when you’re in it.. also don’t bother buying all the keto gimmicks.. ketones are produced by the body for free, drinking expensive concoctions with ketones does nothing.. stick with it it’ll shed weight FAST

Glad that turned out for you!

That looks proper, Fats!

Whooped up a quick soup tonight.

An onion, some garlic, and a couple big turnips all diced and simmer in a pot with some olive oil. A pound of ground turkey and some Italian seasoning added. About a quart or so of chicken stock, couple cans of kidney beans, and a whole bag of baby spinach shredded and tossed in. I did thicken just a bit with some starch.

Came out super tasty. Love me some parsnips!

Homemade hambone stock for them beans as well Tex. Broke open the bones and scooped out the marrow as well when done.

And yes I have a secret suspicion that Paul and his wife have their own James Beard chef onsite.

And that looks delicious btw!

Stole the idea from another site. I don’t even know what rose water is so I used vanilla. Probably be good with any fruit .

Papa Murphy's Pizza...

Far and away the best quick pizza I've had. Just discovered a few months ago...

Back when I traveled around some I would see a sign for Papa Murphy's

Never bought one.....sounds like I should have!

I was skeptical as you bake it...

But its light, not greasy, great toppings, bakes great...

For a "what's for dinner" stop it's my go-to....

Papas is the shizznit GW.

Got a Family Size 16" all meat and medium 12" Hawaiian on Sunday for $23 with a coupon to feed the crew that was over.

You cant that price for all the toppings anywhere especially for a take and bake.

I pull the bake try out for the last 5-8 minutes so the crust gets real cripsy.

I also start the oven off at 500 then bring it down to 425 when I pop the pizzas in. Awesome way to heat the house when its cold.

We also do the on the grill during summer.

Papa's or Papa John's?

Papa John's blows IME....

Hamburger helper baby! Made with deer of course.

Cheap and easy, the kids seem to like it.

Some stuffed meat pie

For the untrained eye. These are before going in the oven. 😎

Papa Murphy’s done on a Weber kettle is pretty decent.

My friend in San Fran makes cast iron pizza on a Weber.

It looks great!

I'll never understand the 24hr foodies.......store bought pizza is not only acceptable....and actually praised by some....but buy a package of Chili seasoning, a box of corn Bread mix, or.....god forbid.....cook something in a skillet that's under 100 years old and you're immediately shunned.

Mucho deliciousness with red meat.

https://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/bearnaise-sauce-395049

INGREDIENTS
1 tablespoon plus 1 cup (2 sticks) unsalted butter, cut into 1/2" cubes
3 tablespoons minced shallots
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons Champagne vinegar or white wine vinegar
2 large egg yolks
1 tablespoon (or more) fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh tarragon
PREPARATION
Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add shallots and a pinch of salt and pepper; stir to coat. Stir in vinegar, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook until vinegar is evaporated, 3-4 minutes. Reduce heat to low and continue cooking shallots, stirring frequently, until tender and translucent, about 5 minutes longer. Transfer shallot reduction to a small bowl and let cool completely.
Meanwhile, fill a blender with hot water to warm it; set aside. Melt remaining 1 cup butter in a small saucepan over medium heat until butter is foamy. Transfer butter to a measuring cup.
Drain blender and dry well. Combine egg yolks, lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon water in warm, dry blender. Purée mixture until smooth. Remove lid insert. With blender running, slowly pour in hot butter in a thin stream of droplets, discarding milk solids at bottom of measuring cup. Continue blending until a smooth, creamy sauce forms, 2-3 minutes. Pour sauce into a medium bowl. Stir in shallot reduction and tarragon and season to taste with salt, pepper, and more lemon juice, if desired. DO AHEAD: Can be made 1 hour ahead. Cover and let stand at room temperature.

You can also buy it in jars (premade), or powdered in pouches in the gravy/jus section.

Lookin good GW,

Double double animal style, light well done fries and Neapolitan shake.

I tried Denny's braised white fish recipe last night. (I used Cod)

https://www.theherald-news.com/2019...ns-help-boost-white-fishs-taste/a1ligqh/

It was OK but I think I'll stick to frying em

I made a lemon herb rice concoction to go with it that was pretty good though.

https://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/lemony-herbed-rice/

Played around with blackened Cod last night in anticipation of my photo debut here. Only soso eye appeal but delish .

I do however have a couple gallons of chili from the other day. Will not confirm or deny if beans were used.

Mmmmm.......that's my kind of grub.

https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alton-brown/swedish-meatballs-recipe-1916539

Tablespoon or two at end of sour cream in sauce. Not enough sauce for me so maybe add a little extra of all the liquids. Seemed short about one cup. And a little more flour not thick enough to my liking when hot.

Also Chopped Chives instead of parsley next time over top.

Although I use moose, that is pretty much the recipe I use after trying half a dozen others. It is a good one.

Of course, over here in Sweden we call them...... meatballs.

First cook on the new drum so it was pork butt @ 225 till the charcoal ran its course around the 5 hour mark which was fine with me. Foiled and tossed into oven at 275 till done.

My son grilled a couple of prime beef tenderloins for my wife and I and a couple of NY strips for he and his girlfriend. All done to perfection at medium rare. Sauteed mushrooms and grilled zucchini wrapped a solid meal.

I dont think I have ever eaten tenderloin Ed.

How did he fix them? Salt and pepper and grill?

It was good!

Kids all like ham. Easy to eat and tastes good.

I asked the old woman where the ham was from.

She just grunted "fertilizer ham"....and trudged off.

The outfit we buy fertilizer from delivers a ham every Christmas to all their customers.

They are local hams and very good.

Not fancy hams...just good simple hams.

We are going to try making our own one day.

Reminds me of Sunday dinners when all the girls were home.

Ham is ham but them cheesy taters are callin my name.

Normally we make them with a bag of Ore Ida frozen cubed hash browns.

We were out so we cubed up and par boiled a bunch of russets.

I liked it better. You could actually taste potato!

Made some roasted tarragon chicken the other night and the flavor was lame. Used fresh seasoning too ???

Did you "bash up" the tarragon in a mortar & pestle ?

I usually do, add a lug of EVOO, rock salt etc, etc, grind to paste & apply marinade for couple of hours.

Cook to liking.

The marinade I had on the chicken from the weekend was red chili flakes, combination of fresh herbs (basic poultry seasoning stuff), whole sliced clove of garlic, EVOO, salt & splash of dry white wine to thin out the paste a bit.

Ahhhh ,...... I failed to (bruise) bash. Points deducted

Local Safeway here has some really good sales on Choice Beef sometimes. I suspect its because there is a significant percentage of people on the dole around here, try to get them in the doors for those dollars.

Tri-tip is ubiquitous now. Its my understanding that a large quantity of the cut are shipped to the Western US instead of being used for other cuts or groundup because of the demand.I believe some of the tri-tip cut is used as "Steak Tips" cut on the East Coast. Triangle roast is also another name.

That’s a great price. Gotta age them at least a month. If you watch Costco you can score Prime tritip cheap. I still age them a month also if I can.
A tritip is the bottom triangular cut from the bottom sirloin. Must be cooked rare to medium rare or it’s just a sin!!

Ive seen that a few times on different cuts from Costco where for whatever reason highly marbled prime cuts are sold at the choice price. However several years ago Costco started blade tenderizing most of their usda prime cuts. So I won't buy them anymore unless I find they haven't been microknife tenderized. Thats not good for cooking to a Rare-MedRare.

When I have the time I only let them sit in the fridge about a week.

Its really about how you cook and cut it to get a tender juicy flavorful product.

Never knew that about the Costco prime cuts. Thanks for the heads up. Couldn’t agree more Fat. Gotta let it rest and cut it properly.

Tritip!

Good Lord GW that almost has a ham quality to it. I want that almost purple in the middle piece right there to the left.

Pork is traditional but chicken works as well. Wife made it a few times skillet precooking cubed chicken. Allows it to standup better in the chile like pork.

Sure, not something you see a lot of here in the states unless you eat at a Mexican household usually out in the country.

With goat though because its a much richer and stronger flavored meat lends it self to the red ranch style sauces.

Turkey is also popular with chile verde again not something you'll see in restaurants.

Chile verde is just a sauce and there are a great many different types of sauces used in Mexican style cooking.

Chile verde and Chile Colorado are the most prolific in the US especially in almost all Mexican Restaurants.

The first one was cooked on a spit. It was dry and tough as hell.

The second one was stuffed inside the cavity of a big ol Hog and cooked in a pit all night,
It was delicious and just fell off the bone.
I suspect the all night soak in hot pig juice had something to do with that.

After much testing tho' I've found the Woodford to be highly overrated.

Ha, ha !

Was a belated birthday gift from Joe, my fishing buddy !

Better than my usual Jim Beam black label !

I don't mind it, for a change, either, when it's free !

You guys eat well! I haven’t had time to grill or bbq in awhile it’s BS.

I’ll take a bottle of woodford any day. My friends seem to think crown royal is the gifting whiskey, ffs I hate that crap lol.

WT is my daily driver but it takes me over a year to drain a 750.

Nuffin rong wit da turkey !

I like Bulleit, Eagle rare, Basil, bla, bla, well basically all of them.

Don't think I ever had Blanton's, yet !

Stuck in a cabin just outside Yaak Montana and doing the modified Keto we had a big salad of greens, cukes, bells, celery, red onion and tomatoes with olive oil, white vinegar, salt and pepper to start. Followed up with some Costco purchased soy based "pasta" with a simple marinara. It was very good. The noodles also make a pretty good Pad Thai.

Chicken breast jaccarded, marinated in eyetalian dressing, and grilled.

Never even heard of that but guarantee I will be trying it.

Went to an all you can eat seafood joint down the road about an hour last night. Not much "seafood" on the menu but I did do the all you can eat catfish.

Damn was it good, they didn't fry the pizz outta the fish.

Probably pulled it from the oil the instant it started to float. Not like most places that let it float for a minute or two after it is actually done.

Probably the best eating out fish I ever had.

In case you didn't see it this is the recipe I use.....easy pezy.

Just don't grate the cheese to fine and make sure the cream cheese is soft enough to mix it in real well. I nuke it for about one minute.

Gotta let us know! Mama made meatball subs, her fantastic homemade meatballs and sauce of course. I could only eat half of one and stuffed.

Red and Green three cheese chicken enchilada casserole. Cooked on grill with a touch of smoke.

Waffles. Sometimes you just want breakfast for dinner.

On my Weber kettle for 2.5 hours.

Just salt and pepper.

Hickory wood.

Let it rest after I pulled it at 130 degrees.

Took a vidallia onion and sliced it and cooked it in the kettle.

Added a jug of Johnny's au jus and two cups water and let it sit covered in grill.

Meat was plumb rare when sliced to it went into the piping hot jus to finish.

Hoagie roll and swiss cheese.

The whole family loved it!

Next time I will buy a little crustier roll. French rolls perhaps.....

I'm glad you, and Deb enjoyed the Iowa chops Paul. You saw the sticker price, not high at all. It looks like you did a marvels job with them!

Thanks Again Richard !!

It was a pleasure to see you again. Sorry about the short trip.

If only, prices like that up here !

I pay more than that, per pound, "live weight", for the local pork we have butchered.

To bad we can't have the best of both "worlds" Paul. Some of the selection in Dryden, and Iowa prices.

No not supper .. going to attempt a brisket pie for that with leftover brisket.

Grilled PBR parmesan sweet corn and Johnsonvill Beer Brats.

[Linked Image]

That Brat needs some beans to keep it company.

That was debated and went down on appeal.

My over indulgence on the SIL home made baked beans on the 4th was the given reason.

Wife, Chief Justice, stated Beer, Beer Brats and Beer Corn was enough.

Gawd almighty.....my mom made her Calico beans and famous potato salad for the 4th.

Burgers and dogs as well.

I used to feel sorry for the wife and kids.........beans and potato salad do something mysterious and terrible to my guts.

Well, no one is perfect!

Burgers, dogs, beans, Mac and Cheese, pasta salad and of course beers.

Fireworks once it was dark.

Good times with family and friends.

I just got out of bed a minute ago and I'm still scratchin' my azz trying to navigate through the fog. After I get the hairs untangled I'll decide if it's gonna be Ballpark hot dogs & Mr. Bush's beans or ribs on the smoker.

Got a smoking deal on St. Louis cut spares at our little store so I may go back and empty their meat case.

Chile verde over cauliflower rice tonight.

Steamed rice with broccoli slaw mixed while steaming.seasoned with soy sauce and a little butter.

Ribs just came off the smoker.

The perfect rib is my unicorn .

I am so glad the corn is scorched. Otherwise, you know how to hurt a fellow.

Short stay in a pot of boiling water would solve that.

Thats all caramelization nothing burned

You Middle Earth Folks are funny.

If God wanted corn cooked in water he wouldn't have made it so it could pop.

All the juices from that meat, fat and gravy all mixed with the browned butter on the corn just soaking into everything.

My Mom likes burnt stuff.

No reason to be ashamed.......

No shame, it ain't burnt.

A couple of radishes, a few green olives, and a glass of milk rounded out the repast.

Okay there Dagwood.....

Be right back - I have to sew the button on my shirt.

Broccoli Cheddar soup tonight.

I usually make my stand by with potato's but someone posted about the traditional version the other day so I thought I'd try some.

It was pretty good but I think I'll stick with what I know.

I used this recipe.

https://www.allrecipes.com/recipe/235874/copycat-panera-broccoli-cheddar-soup/

I normally use this one.....they're pretty similar cept for the potato's.

http://www.geniuskitchen.com/recipe/broccoli-cheese-and-potato-soup-139511

Made a pot of peas and rice.

A few links of double smoked sausage diced up and fried in a big deep skillet. Add in a diced onion, diced grn bell pepper, couple stalks of celery, and a few cloves of garlic. Season with a bit of Tony’s creole and sauté it all up for 10 minutes or so. Add 2 or 3 cans of black eyed peas.

Make a pot of rice with chicken stock, a bay leaf, and a bunch of thyme.

When rice is done, add it into the pea mix until it looks right to ya. I like to add a bit more stock and simmer a bit. Kick it up with some cayenne if you’re so inclined. I chop a bunch of green onion to add at the end as well.

Sounds most excellent 'Mooner !

Big Jim, I'd like to get to Medicine hat some day.

I like the 'Hat.

Dont get there too often though.

Would like to take the kids to the water slides this winter.

Going to the water slides was a real treat as a kid.

I was actually thinking of you today Richard.

I stopped in Elkwater, which is in the Cyprus hills. Nice little area. Tourist trap kinda town.

They had a few cabins and houses for sale.......wondered if some dumb farm kid from Montana could have a Canadian cabin like some Iowa farmer does.

A little tourist trap like Elkwater could never compare to where you are set up however.......plus...I dont have any money!

I sure do like Canada though.

I find canned beans and corn to be tolerable if I drain them, then cut up some bacon and fry it with chopped onion before adding the vegetables and dump on lots of butter.

I tried a new recipe that called for tomato sauce.

It wasn't near as good as my usual recipe but after three days I finally finished it off.

You can bet I won't be making that crap again.....yuck

Breakfast today was the first new 'taters out of the garden with some country sausage I got from the folks over the hill at the farmers' market. Along with a slice of Portugee sweet wheat bread the wife made yesterday. I was happy a couple of hours ago, now it's going on lunchtime and I have to figure out what's next.

Beef and Barley soup.

I want to say it's my best batch ever but it's been so long since I made it I probably just forgot how good it is.

Chicken Fried Venison, new potatoes and fresh green beans out of the garden..

Don't be too jealous, yogurt, cottage cheese and sardines!

I like all three but It's never crossed my mind to make a meal out of all three.

Lamb chops, crispy, breaded eggplant and a salad.

Tomorrow night will be a stuffed green bell pepper from Krogers. Biggest darn pepper I've ever seen.

Yah, I don't really recommend it. LOL

Did burnt ends for the first time, as well as the rest of the brisket. Plus some corn on the cob we got from a farmer friend.

Burnt ends turned out good, maybe a bit overdone. I’ve been working on installing a cold air return in our bedroom and they were in about 1.5 hours longer than the recipe called for.

Last night my wife let me cook dinner. She's usually making something from a "diet" cookbook and many times it involves chicken. She knows I need MEAT on occasion. I was happy to be able to fire up the charcoal and cook something that once had hair!

Pretty simple stuff, grilled "local" pork chop, grilled broccoli, and mashed taters that came from my garden.

Local is in quotes because it came from the farmers market over the hill 30-40 miles away and was grown over on the other side of that valley, in or nearly in Nevada. But it didn't come from a feed lot in Kansas, Arkansas, or elsewhere.

Tasty enough and trying to help out the small family farmer.

Geno

PS, the ratty looking table is from the late '50's, my family dining table growing up. Hard Rock Maple from back east.

I'm finally getting around to making some Chicken Noodle soup using those Chicken feet I bought for the stock.

I put the stock on about seven this morning and my house is already starting to smell delicious.

This is shaping up to be a very fragrant day.

Sounds great, FG.

We had tikka masala and succotash. The Tikka masala was from Costco. Pretty damn good! That it was quick and easy was just a bonus.

I haven't cooked a meal in days. Little stuff keeps poppin' up.

New smoker out on the deck with a freezer full of ribs and chicken.

Thank god for ham sammies.

I've been making Old Bay style steamed shrimp for so long it's become boring.

My order of gulf shrimp came in yesterday thus my request.

Thanks.

Pretty straightforward.

Thawed shrimp (ours was already peeled), butter and chopped garlic.

Heat pan on medium-high, melt butter, add garlic and toss in the shrimp. Turn them as they turn pink. Only takes 2-3 min.

If you want it more garlicky, add the garlic just before the shrimp are done.

Soooo ez even 284 can do it.

I'm not a very good cook so thanks much.

AAAARRRRGGGGHHHHH!

You're killing me!

I miss Ontario walleye SO much!

I too was taught to use grape seed oil because of its high smoke point and the fact that its mild flavour didn't mask the flavour of really fresh mild fish like walleye.

If I wasn't cooking the fish in beer batter, I'd drizzle it with walnut oil mixed with a splash of dry sherry. I think your parsley oil sounds even better!

If you want to try walnut oil it is easier to find online than when I lived in Ontario Walnut oil online in Canada Very nice for oil and vinegar salad dressing too. Good for polishing your furniture and gunstocks as well!

Just like cooking with a gas grill. I have heard that if you get to close it can change the flavor but using the tip of the flame is all you need.

I'm thinking its some bakers weird interpretation of a pastry called "Ojo de Buey" Eye of the ox. Don't quote me though because there are over 300 types of Mexican Pan dulce, sweet bread.

Bet you didn't use jiffy mix for that corn pudding. Remember as a teen seeing twice baked potato on a menu and ordering it then asking why we didn't make those at home. Got the big stink eye from Mom.

Looks great FG.

I use this recipe cut in half (approx) Fats. It's pretty good and easy to make..

Fat city. That looks good. Would you mind posting the recipe?

Two 1lb bags lentils, one yellow one red.
Two lrg chopped yellow onions
One and half large bunch collard greens chopped minus center rib.
8 ounces mushrooms sliced
Lrg can whole plum tomatoes
1 can tomato paste
1lb basil garlic sausage sliced
1lb kielbasa sliced
7 carrots diced
64oz chicken broth

Caramelize mushrooms and onions separate skillet in EVOO.
Diced carrots and wilt chopped greens in bottom stock pot in a little EVOO and cup of stock.
Pour lentils, all stock, mushrooms, onions into pot with carrots, greens.
Simmer med/low until carrots are soft and lentils are hydrated, couple two three hours.
Brown sliced sausage in skillet add to soup.
Brown small can tomato paste in sausage fat left in skillet add to pot.
Add tomatoes to pot after squishing in hand, careful for flying juice, add juice left in can.
Simmer another couple hours. Salt and pepper to taste hour or so before done simmering.
Add little water if becoming too thick. More liquid for soup, less liquid for stew.
Grated Asiago and chopped fresh Italian basil for garnish. Sour cream garnish if stew consistency.

A sprig or two of fresh thyme can be added if you like while simmering then removed before serving. As well a table spoon or two of cider vinegar when adding tomatoes. Cup or two of your favorite drinking white wine as well if you like.

Other than that all the flavor you need come from all the added ingredients as well as browning of certain item described above.

Crusty sourdough bread with butter mandatory accoutrement.

So, if you ever have an old can of cheap sardines, that's been bouncing around in the truck for a year or two, you may not want to count on it being viable.... I switched gears and went for PB&J samichs instead.

FatCity (or anybody familiar with collard greens!):
I can't get collard greens here in Sweden, but I sure like the looks of this dish and I'd like to try it.

Any suggestions on what (if anything) I could try as a substitute for collard greens? Kale perhaps?

I've never eaten collard greens, so I need a little help here!

Please: nobody suggest lutefisk as an easily-available substitute -- I wasn't born yesterday!

Wouldn't matter if the can of cat food had been bouncing around in the truck for a year or two or if it was just purchased; I'll still take the PB&J.

John Im not a big kale fan so i would probably use Swiss Chard and toss it in pot later in the process as it breaks down quicker. You could also use the ribs of Swiss Chard and it comes in colors.

FatCity:

Thanks for the info!

I can get Swiss chard so I will give it a go with that.

Mustard/turnip/kale/chard......

Theure all good. Kale might take a bit more simmering. Especially the italian black variety.

I've got a pesky Coon I'm trying to catch and "relocate" right now. Both the Cat Food or Marsh Mellows are a no go so far but that old can of Sardines just might have been the ticket. Check under the seat and see if you have a few more of those floating around in there.

@ Joe's camp on Lake Superior to winterize !

Last night was slices of salami, Swiss cheese, hot dill pickles and pepperoncinis.

Tried a couple new things yesterday -

Did the carrots using the sous vide. Some butter and did them for an hour and. half at 183. Then into a hot pan and added some honey and a little more butter to create a glaze and topped with dill. What you get using this technique is carrots that are exactly the same doneness regardless if it's the tip or the large end.

The Halibut I oil poached and topped with some crispy shallots. We keep hearing about oil poached fish so gave it a try. Seasoned it and a 30 second sear then removed. Added enough oil to cover in a large enameled pan and brought it up to 130 degrees, added the fish and into a 175 degree oven for exactly 25 minutes.

Excuse the weird light from the dining room light but the dinner turned out excellent (pea shoot salad brought by our guest )

Something I’ve never heard of doing is putting a dollop of sour cream with beans.. the Anasazi beans came with some recipes and called for sour cream.. I don’t know how I’ve lived this long without hearing about this but it’s great. It made that pot of beans over the top flavor wise.

Took them home and tossed them on the Weber, some fried mushrooms and a baked potato. Gin martini on the side.

Burrito night. Was excited about this until I realized that for some reason my wife jacked all the avocados and onions and took them to Phoenix to see her brother. What the hell. So I made a venison breakfast sausage and egg burrito, wrapped in a quesadilla, but WITHOUT guacamole or onions. It wasn't a complete disaster, but it was supposed to be better. Also I'm drinking beer.

Looks damn good!!! Don’t like guacamole, so it would have been good enough for me! 🤠

My wife and I are on a ten day road trip. First stop was College Station to visit our youngest son. He choose an Italian place that he likes. They were jam packed due to it being "ring day" and a wedding rehearsal dinner party so we were seating late (with reservations) and the food arrived even later, much later... When it came it was excellent. I had Veal Oscar. When the bill came for the five of us they did not charge for the food, only drinks. Nice move on them.

Tonight we ate at a place in New Orleans with a friend we are visiting. Excellent again. Prompt and excellent service and great food. I had a grilled Caesar salad and a blackened shrimp and grits cakes. We are here for another night before we head to Memphis so we still need to sort tomorrows meals.

We had a white tail roast from a couple years ago.

Mashed potatoes and boiled carrots.

Rice Krispie treat afterwards.

The dinkfeast continues.

Bits and pieces from around the tenderloin and backstrap! Some in olive oil but the canola batch was definitely better. I grew up on fried venison like this, albeit Crisco. I know there's other ways, but, this sure does the trick for me.

Season the flour?

Always like to have salt, pepper, onion and garlic powder in my flour coatings for red meat.

Going to make some spaghetti and garlic/cheese bread.

Either gonna be Montana Meatloaf or maybe Calico beans with marinated deer loin.

Smoked axis green chile meatloaf......

[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]

I salt and pepper the meat direct, and sometimes throw a bit of garlic powder on it too. Maybe I am supposed to salt and pepper after the flour though. Sometimes I will hack them a bit with a knife, on thicker pieces. Dad always did that but he didn't package little bits and pieces like I do. Can't recall having deer "at home" any other way besides all the ground varieties. Elk the same but some broiled, like thin elk T-bones...

I have experimented a bit with things seen here... But, deer crispies is still my standby.

Yep. And axis meat is hard to beat. Almost as good as Oryx.

It was neither.

Bear beans, corn casserole, and key lime pie.

Marie Callender made the pie for us.

In the future, I am going to insert this into as many of the 'fire "I had it so bad...." threads as I can.

Beat me to it.

Clam chowder from scratch. Wife of course.

A roast of beef. A few hours last night at 200 till done, then all day today at 175 till it's forken shreddable. Worked for me.

Enjoy your meals guys.

SV Pot roast then butter seared, Brussels, fried cauliflower rice and spaghetti squash.

my hell I have a lot of spaghetti squash this year, they went nuts.

Sausage, peppers, onions. Green salad.

Busier than a one armed brick layer at the moment, so went easy peasy.

Store bought BBQ chicken, Texas toast, Jack cheese, avocado & ground pepper.

Thanks Bob.....I figured it was something like that.

Most of the recipes I found called for beans but I like the rice idea.

I have some Jimmy Dean sausage, rice and veggies on hand so I'll make a small test batch next week and go from there.

Charlie,

I went real light on the rice. Just enough to see. Like about 2 or 3 tablespoons. Already had 4 diced potatoes in pot. Had leftovers yesterday for lunch. Better 2nd time, naturally !!

Tonight was a strip loin roast rubbed with Montreal Steak Spice then grilled on the Weber, along with potatoes fried in duck fat and some of Slavyanka’s homemade sauerkraut.

We were out of horseradish so I had some Russian Ajika pepper sauce with the beef.

Elk/chorizo meatloaf muffins, pan roasted taters.....

Put some chicken hips in the crock pot while I was working today. Fixed some rice and called it good!

No pics, but the night before I put a roast in the crock pot and added carrots and potatoes when I got off, it was a hit as well!

Tomorrow I will finish some deer shanks in the crock pot as well....guess its a crock pot week!

Pizza and cool ones at the local Pizza parlor... Great stuff for Wyoming pizza!!!

Like those dishes Big Jim, that looks like a diet meal?

Two more drumsticks after that......and a piece of bread with gravy for dessert.

That looks good.

Been a long time since I made gumbo.

Probably be eatin on it for a week, so it might be awhile before I make it again.

I got a stomach bug after the last batch I cooked. Been over a year.

No rice, no gumbo....nothing!

I have been threatening to make it again however.

Food didnt make me sick, but its funny your body loses the taste for something like that.

I hear ya probably something you picked up from a door knob, but the mind has an association. The last thing you ate.

The jellies are normally sweeter.

I'm not used to eating fancy foods, and although I raise beef cattle, I would just as soon have a good pork chop as a steak........not that I don't care for steak, because I do. I like pork chops fixed about any way there is to cook them......fried, grilled, oven baked, barbequed.......I like them all.

Cornbread, baked beans, and some excellent ring bologna from Kramer's in LaPorte.

Breaded and fried pork chop, sauteed mixed veggies (squash, broccoli, onion and poblano pepper).

The usual. Lemon quenched broccoli and mesquite steaks, 1 1/4" strips to be specific ...

I have to admit that I was lusting after a breaded, fried pork chop a few weeks ago. We were in southern Alabama at a restaurant near where my brother and I have a small cattle ranch and stopped at a diner that my brother has raved about for years. All steam trays with the southern basics...fried chicken, mac and cheese, fried green tomatoes, sweet potato casserole, and friend pork chops. I don't eat pork, but my wife does and she is a very picky eater. At first she wasn't too impressed based on the looks of the pork chop, then she cut into it and ended up going back twice.

You are a better man than me.

Only thing I dont eat are Lemon custard squares.

I love em too.

We ate at a Brazilian steak house last night celebrating my son’s fiancé’s graduation here in College Station. My wife and I had the salad bar. They rest ate enough meat to experience their first case of the meat sweats.

I finally got around to pickling and cooking the tongue from the last cow we slaughtered (we raise Florida Crackers). My dad had a fall (he's almost 92 and has had a few hip replacements, so it's a bit of a big deal even though he only had a bump on his noggin this time) and I wanted to raise his spirits, and a good deli sandwich with real pickles is what he loves.

I made a few extra sandwiches for dinner and they were so damn good....a bit of spicy mustard on one piece of bread, grainy mustard on the other, homemade sauerkraut next, then slices of tongue. Add a couple of pickled tomatoes/cukes from the garden, and it's as good as it gets.

The pictures didn't come out well, but holy cow (literally), those sandwiches are amazing.

I really wish there was a "like" button on this forum for times like this. Thanks to everyone for the good wishes for my father, he's doing well. I know this is way off topic, but he probably makes the nurses wish he was gone...yesterday, he told one nurse who was wearing a Christmas sweater with blinking lights that her nipples were sending morse code and he called another nurse a "schwartzer" (Yiddish for the N word).

My wife, who is a dang good cook, knocked it outta the park tonight for the New Years Day dinner. We got a lot of burger from the cow elk I bagged last month and with the snow coming down a bit today, my wife said she was craving chili. I'm always up for a bowl of spicy chili in winter, so this was a real treat. I know that the idea of beans in chili can cause fights, but I just care if it tastes good. And boy, did it. With a Bud and some tortilla chips, I was pretty close to as happy as a guy can get. No offense to the cattle ranchers here (we had locally raised Montana ribeyes last night), but I could easily go with elk chili over beef chili for a good, long time.

But they are one of my favorites ...

The meal Lynn, keep it clean please, this is a family forum.

If you want to pile on poor old wabigoon, head up to the freak show, and do it up right.

Lazy food this weekend... My son and I spent the last 2 1/2 days at the Dallas Safari Club Show as we have done for the past four years eating at the same places every year as they are all well within walking distance from where we stay and offer quality food. While blowing my 10 month effort of near zero carbs/sugar for the weekend it was Bob's Steak and Chop House for a New York Strip, creamed spinach, roasted potatoes and a couple of rye Old Fashioneds Friday night. Saturday night was at Cafe Herrera for grilled flank steak in a pretty heated red sauce with peppers, onions and tomatoes and a couple of Old Fashioneds. Breakfast today was corned beef hash and eggs and decaf coffee at Cindi's N.Y. Delicatessen Restaurant and Bakery. All delivering well with me pleased with continuing a tradition I hope to keep with my son for years to come.

We are wrapping up a trip to Pebble Beach so have been eating out daly. Tonight was a very good rendition of chicken picatta.

Just back from our "weight watchers" cruise.

I.E; we watched our selves put on weight.

Food, beverages & company were sensational !

Paul, not food, have you heard about a loader going through the ice on Dinorwic, near Graveyard Island?

Yes, I did Richard.

Apparently he was working on the road, near the sandbar.

He got out safely, after some panic, loader rests with da fishes in 30' !

Ain't really sure what I had but it was good. I usually cook but tonight the wife cooked some kind of braised yard bird in a sauce over rice.

Crab cakes and a bowl of minestrone yesterday on Monterey bay.

Had chicken strips and green bean casserole last night.

Both turned out well. Used fresh green beans for the casserole and double battered the strips after an hour in the butter milk.

Not much appetite with my cold. Judy has a roast beef with potatoes in the oven, I'll try to eat a slice.

Wife used the left over beef roast to make a beef & barley soup that was quite tasty.

Ceasar salad loaded with boneless skinless Panko chicken strips, red beet eggs and cheery toms.

Cod loins coated with seasoned flour and done in the air fryer, left-over (real) baked potatoes sliced and fried with onion, cabbage (red, green, Napa), carrot, and green onion slaw with vinegar, oil, brown sugar, celery salt, pepper, and regular salt for dressing.

I'm thinking left over soup tonight.

Although, we have a storm moving in so maybe we should save the soup for a possible snow day....

The best thing to go with it is more oysters.

Never heard of such a thing Longarm.

Well thats kind of a chili mac Jim.

For the chilimac It is amazing how you can kickup prepackaged food.

Hope you folks are enjoying your new place.

Thanks bud, new place is coming along nicely.

Just told Deb, this feels like our home !

Looking good guys...

We helped my middle son (and GF) move from Tyler to Shreveport today and had a 3:00 meal at a Mexican place in Tyler that was amazingly great, given my preconceived East Texas Mexican restaurant thoughts. Poured rain all day.... More to unload tomorrow.

Physical therapy kicked my butt today so it was a late supper of some leftovers following a great nap.

That looks mouth watering, Paul!

I've recently learned that the in-laws of a colleague have a very traditional sheep farm, and I'm going to order an animal.

I do like lamb, but I've had some hogget once that was outstanding -- more flavour, it reminded me of good game meat. It was here in Sweden, and it was accompanied by lingonberry sauce rather than mint sauce. Mmmmmmmmmm good!

Given that I have a choice between lamb and hogget, do you have any recommendation? I'm thinking that among all our members, you might know your lamb from your hogget from your mutton...

John

Hey John,

I grew up, eating lamb, hogget & mutton.

My/our preference would be towards hogget & mutton, mainly due to relatives farming sheep, selling all their lamb to commercial market, hence eating what was left.

They are all wonderful flavoured meat, just have to treat hogget & mutton a little differently. more low & slow, vs lamb, seared hard & cooked hot.

Big Jim can chime in here to, he's eaten his share of all the above.

This lamb was right on 50lbs of butchered cuts, farmer says usually 50-50 cuts guts waste, so right around 100lbs live weight & 10.5 months old.

These are actually hair sheep, vs traditional wool sheep.

The loin chops were outstanding !

Thanks for taking the time to reply, Paul!

I hadn't thought of cooking them differently, having only ever cooked lamb my self. If I get hogget, you have saved me from ruining some of it!

John, I noticed that the Hy-Vee store in Albert Lea has jars of lingonberry sauce. Someday, I've got to dig out an Albert City recipe for ostkaka and pick up a jar. Best, John

Hej John

Since moving to Sweden, I've become a real fan of lingonberry sauce with most kinds of red meats!

Although when I first saw lingonberry sauce with moose steak on menu, I thought it would be like putting strawberry jam on the moose, but it sure wasn't!

Lingonsylt is fairly tart, and now I go through lots of lingonberrry sauce with all kinds of red meat.

Oh, and a big thumbs up for the ostkaka too! That was also new to me when I moved to Sweden.

Although I haven't made it myself yet, here is an on-line recipe that has background info and a recipe in both metric and American units. Ostkaka recipe

John

Pot of elk chili. Local tamales. And some left over beans I pulled out of the freezer.

Not bad!!!

We very much prefer hogget and mutton ourselves too.

These last two animals we bought were hoggets. 140 pounds live.

I do not prefer the flavor or texture of lamb.

One complaint is that there are not enough roasts on a hogget or a mutton.

Make a gravy out of the pan drippings.....but keep that roast off the bottom. Salt and pepper is what we like.

Tonight's dinner will be blackened cod, stir fry bok choy, sazon rice and ice cold milk. Coffee ice cream for dessert.

Of all places for people to complain about gamey flavor, I wouldn't expect that here. 😕

This reminds me it's time to order my whole lamb.

Some chops for you haters.

Last night. Elk chili, local tamales, and my beans on the side.

Sirloin steak, mine was a wee tad bit rare, my wife would not look at it.

3 cans of gingerale & a box of tissues !

Grilled pork chops, broccoli casserole, pan fried potatoes and onions.

You caught the crud Paul?

Anyway, I think the trouble with lamb for most people is that unless they are regular lamb eaters, the first lamb they ate as adults was a 4H buddy lamb.

Usually, when you fatten an animal it is beneficial to fatten two. Two animals will eat more because of competition. Each gaining weight faster.

I have never eaten a buddy lamb that was any good.

I like barley fat beef and pork.

Grass fat is the only way to fly with lamb and mutton.

About 33 years ago, I tried to oven cook a leg of lamb. (I know the year because I had just got married...) That attempt stunk up the apartment I was in so badly I could not bear to eat it. The wife wouldn't touch it either!

I never tried lamb again until this past fall, when we went to a "Brazilian Steakhouse" and they come by with lamb chops. Don't know what came over me, but I tried it. All I can say was it was very good! The wife of course, would not touch it. So to this day, I don't know whether it was the leg I purchased or my cooking technique that soured me to lamb. I will try it again, and hope for the best!

Having a late dinner ATM and added a splash of oyster sauce.Added two extra pinches of ginger powder as well. Very goood

You feeling any better Paul?

Paul, where do you buy the fresh produce?

It is upsetting that he can buy much better produce up there than I can down here.

I am much closer to the E Coli fields of Mexico than he is!

Jim, It is odd, Dryden, Ontario stores, have a good selection.

The breads are just great. Both the Ukraine, and German influence makes for different foods.

You would not believe all the kinds of potato chips.

Jim, Dryden sits smack bang on the Trans Canada Highway. It's about the only thing we have going for us, other than excellent outdoor activities !

Found a deal on some spares the other day so they went on the smoker:

Sourdough tuna cheddar melts last night.

Slept late today and can't seem to get going so a nice steaming bowl of hobo soup it is. Yum !! Maybe a small salad later tonight for a snack.

Man do those ribs look awesomely delicious, nice job rooster!

Tomato soup, left over roasted broccoli and a pile of slow cooked elk roast.

After a range day I swung by Whole Foods and grabbed two large cups, brisket chili for me and clam chowder for my wife to reheat home. Both consistently excellent.

90 mins at 325,or go low and slow?

We had fried shrimp and oysters, Memphis style slaw, pan fried potatoes and onions. Best oysters I have had in a while. They cam from Bevans Oyster Company in VA.

I just rolled some bacon around dill pickle spears, sliced flank steak over that, yup, rouladen. A bit of diced onion, and some bell pepper left from tacos.

After I help with a gate, it should be pi[in' hot ready to serve with some red German style cabbage.

I got extra, you'all are invited.

Our last big dinner before Orthodox Lent.

I decided to try the sous vide setting on my Instant Pot. Did a piece of filet mignon and a small moose roast (moose vide?). I would have liked to get better grill marks on the bbq afterward. Maybe next time.

Cheated on the sides but the ribs and chicken didn’t suck.

The wife cooked sockeye salmon and roasted root vegetables. Really good.

Home made Italian subs. Like a #9 italian night club from Jimmy John's but better.

Veggie stir fry.

Needed more oyster sauce

There is a fine line between too much or too little oyster sauce in many dishes. Hard to get it just right all of the time.

I'd, maybe, swap out the milk for a tasty IPA !

Never cared much for beer with my meals ???But I don't rule it out.After digestion it's fine. Bring it on.

Bar food and beer ? Yeah baby. Go figure.

Supper tonight was individual naan bread pizzas, each came with your choice of toppings, and each was big enough to ensure leftovers for each person.

This one had a light tomato sauce on it, along with green peppers, cappocola, pepperoni, hot italian sausage, pineapple, mozzarella cheese, and old white cheddar cheese.

Man.....them chops were good last night Paul.

Cooked em just barely medium. Most chops I have been served were well done...and of poor quality.

Never liked chops before.

My wife and daughter are going to the beach for a couple of days and I wrote that restaurant name down so i wouldn't forget to tell them.

Marinated some salmon last evening and grilled it.

Grilled a rib steak too.

Green beans and microwave baked potato.

Everything was good except the steak. Cooked perfectly but I didnt like the garlic in the seasoning.

Always just use salt or salt and pepper. Garlic on a high quality rib steak was a disaster.

Nutz, for sure !!

Library, museum, rec center, public works office & arena all closed.

Dinner tonight will be venison bourguinon adapted from Julia Child’s famous recipe using beef. It’s in her classic book, “Mastering the Art of French Cooking.” It’s a bit of an endeavor, but worth it when you have time!

We’re on the north island, they live in Ohope

The snapper were excellent indeed!

If we hadn't been able to stay in Canada, south Island NZ would have been next choice !!

Miss everything about the ocean & island living.

In Australia, the kayak fish, are referred to Australian Salmon.

The "clams" you smoked would by pipis (common name) or eugaries (native name).

Smoked roe is an acquired taste, but I miss smoked sea mullet roe.

Think you should be able to connect with a yellowtail kingfish or even an amberjack there. Hang on, they'll pull your arms out of their sockets !

We weren’t able to hook into any kingfish from the kayak but we caught a few sub-legal kingfish on the charter in the 60-65cm range. They fought great. The neighbor gave us a legal one he had caught so we got to eat one

No blue cod?

Smoked turkey for grandson's 25th birthday. Smoked it to 178*. It came out great. I filled the box with hamburgers and then cooled them and this morning froze them. In the tray below the racks I put half of the drip pan full of grape juice or apple. It works well and the smoker always leaves the meat moist. I had juices all over the place getting the turkey out of the smoker onto a tray. Be Well, Rustyzipper.

Love pinto beans, love fried chicken livers, but would pass on okra boiled. I love okra fried, either rolled in a batter and deep fried, or just mixed with some cornmeal and skillet fried. But, those livers do look good.

Try salt, black pepper, and steam your young okra. No slime. Maybe a little butter at the end. I like it better than fried. and I like fried. miles

I can eat okra that's not fried, just much prefer the fried version. I've had it with tomatoes, and although it was slimy, it was still good. I have a friend who makes pickled okra, and I'd always give them the okra to make it with, and then they'd give me a jar of the pickled. I'd pass it on to someone else, because I couldn't stand the stuff.

I like pickled okra - only have had commercial stuff - I imagine that home-made would be like so much home-canned (jarred) stuff, disappointing to me.

We are doing grilled lamb chops, rosemary roasted potatoes, brussel sprouts and a small salad with Maytag blue cheese. And a few beers.

I have had a pot of ham and bean soup simmering all afternoon. The wife is making a tossed salad to go with it.

Slightly blackend Armor franks.

Maybe thats a giant plate and full size cabbages?

Hell we may need giant cabbages if the food situation doesn't get better around here. And I ain't going out to the store for a few days. I'm not overly worried about the Chinese virus but most folks that are out don't seem to care at all and that does concern me.

I also tried something new in terms of easy/quick route. Tried country ribs on the grill, with A-MAZE-N smoker maze a couple nights ago. Definitely added a good smoke flavor. Added some sear on the grill, then finished in the oven.

Next night, I made wings with the smoker maze. Also good smoke flavor.

Didn't have to mess with my smoker. Will do some more of the pre-smoke, then grill, or bake. Doesn't replace low and slow though.

Recipe PLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEASE !!!!!!!!!!

This is the basis.

https://www.skinnytaste.com/arroz-con-pollo-lightened-up/

We do not use water/buillion but actual chicken stock. I've never added bell peppers. Sometimes after the "don't lift the lid" we add a bit more stock relative to rice doneness....etc.

One of my absolute favorites....

Hamburger tacos with cornmeal shells.

Not masa harina.....corn meal.

Spaghetti with caribou meatballs mama cooked all day in the sauce. She’s 1/2 Italian and knows how to cook ‘em. She made some homemade garlic breadsticks to go with it. Nobody left hungry.

Homemade chicken pot pie, with a seahorse for decoration.........because................my wife

And it was excellent, she wasn't sure how it would turn out, never having made it or used this recipe. I told her I was having a hard time avoiding seconds so she has to make it again, it was that good.

I bailed on the Santa Maria seasoning because I just had to embark on a maiden voyage of Chubacabra Original season-all rub. Wasn't disappointed, as it turned out great. Not sure it's better than the Susie Q's Santa Maria rub, but it close.

Just for the record it was smoked to an internal temp of 120* that took about 2 hours @ 220*. Reverse seared both sides until temp rose to 135*, then pulled off and rested 15 minutes. Thanks GregW for the Chupacabra rec amigo.

Meatloaf using deer burger

Cooking steaks tonight. Rosemary roasted potatoes, asparagus in brown butter and a salad. The wife can't eat them but my daughter and I can so we are having some scallops seared in garlic butter too.

Didn't do the rosemary roasted taters.

Did a pork shoulder on the Kamado today. I think I”m going to sell the Bradley. The Kamado does a much better job.

I always feel bad about wasting the pork rind. This time I cut it in cubes and trimmed it off after the smoke to deep-fry and make Chicarones. Turned out pretty good but next time I’ll fry them a little longer to get crispier.

Piece of pork shoulder I just put on the Big Green Egg. Tacos tonight.

Are those lamb shoulder chops tender off the grill? Never tried them that way. I usually make Irish lamb stew with them.

They aren't too tough, as long as you don't over cook them.

Definitely more "chewy" than loin chops & yes, they are better suited to low & slow.

Stew/osso buco etc.

Asked Deb to grab some lamb chops out of the freezer for the BBQ & that was what she pulled out.

Pan fried, homemade potato/aged cheddar Perogies;

3 hours in and looking better. The guy trimmed the skin off and some of the fat but that is ok as there is plenty for fat inside. This will be good for sure.

It’s the best way to prepare elk and buck meat imo.

S&P raw steaks
Dredge in seasoned flour, ie; Johnny’s, slap yo momma etc
Dredge In beaten egg
Dredge in panko, bread crumbs, or even flour again.
Fry until you get the right color.

Got chili in the crock for tonight as well...2# of Elk burger, 1# pork sausage, chili beans, rotel, and brown sugar.

We had those last night Judman. I just season the meat then flour and put them on a rack in the fridge for the moisture to soak the flour. then flour again before frying.

Thanks Jud. I'm gonna try that.

Indeed!!

Our brisket is on the gas grill, it's raining, and windy, I may have to finish in the oven.

I have a pork butt and poor boy burnt ends in the smoker now. Not sure what my wife has in mind for sides. Never worry about it,she is an excellent cook

Took a hunk of left over lamb roast, chopped it up, fried it in butter and a bit of oil. Spoonful of flour to make a roux. Big heaping spoonful of red chili, heaping spoonful of green chili, and about half a pint of chicken stock. Little garlic salt and simmerin’......It was money.

Spooned it over fried potatoes and onions and a couple runny fried eggs.

The world is right.

Bean soup in the Instant Pot, made with the leftovers of a pork shoulder I smoked and froze a couple weeks ago.

For dessert, homemade Tvorog (Farmer’s Cheese) with honey, made from 2 gal of fresh whole milk we picked up from a dairy farmer who’s having to dump a lot of production.

Simple supper tonight. Chuckeyes, asparagus in brown butter, baked tater. That'll do.

One of our favorite meals, to a T....

Geno,

What cut is that?

All of it looks fantastic.

Elk medallions ( cut from the semitendinosis in the "round steak" ) marinated for a couple hours in home made sour cherry wine and Greek seasoning with onions and a bit of garlic, grilled on the BBQ. Potatoes made by boiling chunks, and adding a sauce made with sautéed onions, thick cream, butter, seasonings, and stirred until thick and creamy goodness, along with fresh carrots and peas with basil and butter sauce. And a nice Shiraz on the side.

Ed,

I'll be danged if I can remember. Took it out of fridge on friday, unwrapped it, seasoned it, let it sit for awhile, back in fridge and in the meantime took the styrofoam tray and wrapper out to the dumpster. Was going to cook it that night, then remembered it was our "stimulus program" night to go to one of the restaurants for takeout.

By the time i cooked it Saturday, I had forgotten what kind it was.

Turned out tasty, whatever cut it was. Coated it fairly good with some garlic powder, onion powder, and Ras al Hanout (a Moroccan blend of spices the wife and I love), roasted for a couple of hours until about 140F, and called it good.

Geno

Fats,

we better not get together and start cookin'. I'll be fighting to get even more weight off. That looks great!

Geno

Geno I need for this covid chit to be over so the daughters can move on and out before I need a bariatric procedure.

Most of the time they are about $6.99 and they push what should be a Chuckeye. I don't buy those but others do. Lately they have looked like they are supposed too. Maybe someone besides me complained about it.

What does lamb taste like, anything comparable? I've never had it. The only time I was around it it smelled like pee boiling. It was done.on the.stove top in some kind of sauce. Couldn't make myself taste it. 🤮

Tex, lamb is "fatty" for sure, rich flavoured & tender if the cuts are handled the right way.

Lots of people, mistakenly refer to it as "gamey". Can't make that association my self.

We love it, it was the most affordable meat, when we were growing up in Australia.

Cheaper than pork even in the late 60s & 70s.

Never have I had any, that smelled like "boiling pee" though !

Pot Pie, Started with a little oil in the pan for onions, added portabella mushrooms, when that cooked I added 4 TBL butter, about 1/4 cup flour then some cream and chicken stock. Brought back to a simmer and in with the pulled chicken, Poured it all into a baking dish and put a puff pastry across the top with steam holes. Think I'm starting to get these pot pies figured out, but they need to be thinner to bring up the ratio of pastry to filling.

Whole rotisserie chicken
2 large portabellas
2 medium yellow onions
4 tbl butter
1/4 cup flour
splash of cream
2 cups chicken broth
1 puff pastry
2 tsp salt
2 tsp black pepper
1 tsp garlic powder, because I didn't have fresh garlic
and some thyme.

Starting with caprese, our version at least. One of my top 3 favorite salads. This and broccoli salad are in a tie for first. ...

Did you macerate the strawberries with a little sugar first?

I also like left out "stale" pound cake in a bowl with fruit and a little heavy cream pour over as a dessert or befast.

Fats, a day or overnight "sugar soak" is a given as the syrup it generates is really the key to the dish. First helping was only a hour or so but breakfast the next day was OH MY !!!!! Always great color as well.

Another flat awaits in the 'fridge for later this week.

No stale pound cake in my galley but I do see an orange bundt cake in my future.

Good Lord uncle Johnny!!

It's right up your alley Jud. One of my fave's I've done so far on this pellet grill. It's and easy deal, especially if I can pull it off.

Cut boneless pork butt into 1' x1' cubes. Trim fat as you wish.
Apply favorite rub/seasoning
Throw on smoker at 225* until internal temp of 185*
Pull, apply BBQ sauce and some brown sugar, stirr 'em around good so all will get coated well.
Put back in smoker, crank up temp if you can, until an internal temp of 207*
Take 'em off and attack! I like 207* because they are just short of falling apart, but have a real nice bark.
Enjoy. I bet you'll love 'em.

Awesome stuff Johnny !!

Use ground lamb instead of ground beef. It gives it a much more robust flavor that goes well with the bechamel sauce.

My wife said the recipe she used recommended a 50/50 mix of lamb and beef. Unfortunately we didn't have any lamb around. I told her "That is why I want to raise a lamb or two next year!"

She'll eat it, I love it.

Thanks, I bookmarked that link for future reference.

Tonight is leftover from yesterday pork chops in a nice onion gravy. Ice cold milk.

Damn Geno thats a fine looking pastichio.

One piece left for her lunch tomorrow...................but she may have to fight me for it.

Thin cut bone in pork chops in the crockpot. Boy, were they greasy. I should have trimmed them first. Lesson learned.

Pork tenderloin (not loin) medallions done in garlic butter. No veggies. Delish !

Ribs - barbecue sauce, doctored pork and beans, cabbage (red and green), carrot, and green onion salad with vinegar/oil/brown sugar dressing.

Got to play lots !

Who's done all the gardening, Miss Deb?😉
She sure looks happy. It turned out very well.

Howdy Tex,

Joint effort, Deb's a "trooper" !

Yes, happy wife, happy life !!

Marinated boneless pork chops off the grill n hash brown tater casserole !

Good eats.

Amazing looking soil,Paul. I assume the bigger box in the pix further above will be for compost but why no treated wood ??

What all do yall have planted Paul? You're right happy wife happy life. I think you picked a good one! 😉👍

Denny, the other photo is the partially built box frames, before assembly, once the base was dug out.

The chemicals in treated wood (CCA) are toxic & we wanted to go as organic as possible.

Cedar, or Douglas fir would have certainly offered us longer life of the beds, as both are naturally rot resistant.

Cost/availability of both were, very prohibitive !!!!!!!!!!

Was going to use raw linseed oil to "stain/preserve", but could only source boiled, once again containing nasty chemicals.

The black soil is a rich organic matter, mixed with loam & "marinated". Basically fully composted material & sand for drainage.

Tex, lotsa good stuff, was Deb's answer !!

Yep, she's a beauty & a keeper !

Here's what I can remember;

4 kinds of lettuce, 3 kinds of peppers, onions, cucumbers, cabbage, red cabbage, carrots, beets, asparagus, 2 kinds of taters & other root veges still to come. Building a half wide box to go beside the others, on the creek side - Current beds are 16'x4' beds, this one will be 16'x2 or 3', space dependant.

I want to be able to mow between the boxes !

You did good Paul. May your garden be blessed.

Thank you Tex !

Forgot to mention, we want chickens too, but probably missed the boat for this year.

Hey Paul what is the yellow-orange glaze under the burger.

Mayo, jazzed up with chopped garlic, red chili flakes & a touch of smoked paprika !

That sounds good. What brand of smoked paprika do yall use?

Not sure Tex, we bought it in Hungary, when in Europe 2 years ago !

I'll have a look, when I get home.

Thought I might have a picture !

It's this brand, bought a 3 pack of packs !

Regular, hot & smoked.

[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]

We bought some pricey $$$$ imported smoked paprika all jazzed up in a fancy tin and promptly lost it ???? After much searching and despair

we reordered. When the new tin arrived it was guarded like a newborn infant only to find its predecessor a day later behind the coffee pot.

Paul, suppose we swap some foods? If I can get Judy to make you a pie, you trade me one of those so tasty dishes?

That's what friends do Richard !

As soon as the powers let me make the trip!

Fishing aside, one the many things I enjoy about being at our humble place is the foods. We bring home grown beef.

The produce selection in Dryden is great, and the ethic breads are so good. The rye City breads are so good. I find the shelf empty on the sale priced rye bread on the shopping on our way first time at Safeway.

I have beef kidneys for steak, and kidney pie.

Corn on the cob cooked in milk and butter. Yum.

I think the Parmesan and chives on the crust make it look so much more appetizing than the average recipe, and I love both of those ingredients so I think we have a winner here!

I've saved this recipe on my hard disk, and I think I will make it with ground lamb -- or hogget when I can find some more!

If the new chest freezer is delivered not too late in the day I'll run to the store and make a small batch of Pico de Gallo on the side.

Deb was at a meeting & Doug is on evening shift.

Downside - no leftovers for lunch today !

Did a refrigerator dump and made fried rice. It turned out decently well. Needed more protein. Added a few eggs, but it needed some more animal, just didn't have much cooked to throw in.

Did not suck !

Perfect, except the finishing touch would have been a good spread of Miracle Whip.........can't handle greasy mayo.

Again great looking family.

Took CINCHome out to a Mexican restaurant and were social distanced while the takeout window business was quite heavy. Once in a while CINCHome needs a break and so do I. Pollo Cancun was her dish and Pollo Hawaii was mine. There was quite enough for an extra helping of each to take home. Three booths back there was a young family with grade school kids and we herd please, thank you, and all manner of politeness. So quietly as we left we paid for that family's fried ice cream and quickly left. The waiter knew to tell them who and why. It is fun to do things like that and to be retired and able to do a few nice things for others. I probably left a bit of a large tip. But the waiters hustle hard even if they are not busy. A good place to eat is great and good service today is even better. Be Well, Rustyzipper.

I think lotsa folks kill them for antlers first, and meat second. Kill them too late in the season and a rutty bull is gonna taste like schit. No different than any other critter really. I’ve been lucky enough I guess to not kill a bad one. They’ve all been damn tasty!

Chicken marsala sauce from a jar, breast pieces, spuds, green pepper and pineapple junks over brown rice. I liked it, kid thought it was punishment!

Gazpacho.

fine lookin ensalada there GregW.

Lamb gyro, garlic fries with tzatziki and feta

Roasted a duck on the Kamado. Stuffed it with fresh parsley, sage, rosemary and thyme (2 points for the S&G reference). The aroma was fantastic.

Hacked it into bite-size chunks with the cleaver on a heavy Maple cutting board I just finished. Served with plum sauce.

Sides were scratch-made Caesar salad, quinoa salad and grilled veggies.

Thats an understatement. Sheesh bwana. Only thing missing are steamed Mandarin Pancakes.

Thanks. Done that before with leftovers, shredded duck heated in a pan with bean sprouts and mushrooms, then on a leaf of lettuce, wrapped in a crepe and dipped in plum sauce. Incredible!

Garden leaf lettuce salad, round steak, hash browns, cantaloupe. Good enough.

Ah, John, to snap a mackerel is nothing short of sublime!

Much better than muchin' those minnows.

And, to further incriminate myself, I used Spin Blend! There I Said it!

No pictures but we had tofu chicken nuggets, sweet potato French fries, washed down with some delicious mangobubbly sparkling water..

Wife made a chicken alfredo pasta.......while the rest of us sat out side and shot bb guns.

I drank beer while I waited.

Tonight I'm doing a few St. Louis style pork steaks on the drum smoker along with tater salad and some green beans. Ice cold peach moonshine as well. Simple fare.

Denny, they are mini cucumbers, 'bout as big as your pointing finger.

Aren't they great?

The vegetable man here in the supermarket refers to them as Lebanese Cucumbers, and they are great.

Crisper is full of them.

I put them in salads and in wraps, eat them with hummus, hang, I eat them just as is as a snack instead of junk food.

They're Slavyanka's favourite, too. We go through a lot of them this time of year.

First good haul from the garden.

Roast beef.

Good ol' southern food last night. Fried pork chops, fried squash, mashed taters with gravy, and vine ripe matters. Wife was going to make biscuits but we figured this was enough fat for one night.

Hard to beat that.

Half a brat, krout, half bun, yellow mustard, no added salt.

VRM! Vine Ripe Matters!

Finally got the tzatziki sauce and gyros meat made.

The sauce yesterday. The meat is cooling in the fridge.

Report to follow.

Kids hated it!

Wife.....meh..

I thought it was really good.

I love a good gyro; haven’t had one in awhile.
How did you make the gyro meat?

Mixed a pound of ground beef and a pound of ground lamb.

Had garlic, rosemary, cumin, cinnamon, salt, pepper and paprika. Chopped onion too.

Probably some other stuff too.

Cooked it in the oven....cooled it down and sliced it. Then I browned it in a skillet.

I really thought it was good.

I'll have to try that. Finding ground lamb might be the hitch.

Jim Conrad, Montana Renaissance Man.

Funny we had gyros again tonight as well but with seasoned beef.

Cucumber, purple onion, tomato and feta as toppings. Daughter made a killer fresh tzatziki sauce.

I add a little Yucateco chipotle hot sauce to mine.

Crusty, crunchy, juicy, tasty, as my oldest said, and she is the most finicky eater I have ever met. I do believe she snuck a few with her to have for her lunch today

I forgot a picture, but, it looked good. Tasted better than anything so simple should have.

Meatballs from Winco Italian sausage, about 1"- browned. Sauce from a can, Hunts Roasted Garlic and Onion. A sprinkling of Italian spices from a grinder and dried veggy flakes. Wide/thick Safeway Select spaghetti noodles. Sombiotch it was good. Wowzers. I got points tonight.

Love me some Winco fried chicken.

Thinking about beef loose meat sandwiches, a bit of BBQ sauce, maybe chips.

Hot and humid here so we have been enjoying a variety fruits with greens salads

The loose meats [Linked Image from i.imgur.com]

Slap them tater chips on that meat.

No, we make it and put in jars and freeze it.

5 cups basil leaves
1/4 cup walnuts
1/4 cup pine nuts
10 cloves of garlic
1 cup grated parmesan
1/2 cups olive oil
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper

Food processor - start with nuts and garlic, rough chop. Then add basil and puree it down. Slowly drizzle in olive oil, then add salt and pepper and finally cheese.

Air will brown it, so we put it in small jars and put 1/4 inch of olive oil on top and freeze it. We are eating our 2019 stock right now. The basil in the garden is looking puny this year. Hopefully we can get a few jars.

Thanks broseph.

Grilled Venison burgers, oven roasted potatoes from the garden, caprese salad (tomatoes and basil from the garden) and blueberry pie (blueberries from the garden) for desert. We love it when we can eat a full meal and the majority of the food comes from our harvest.

Last day of fly fishing, she had ribs and I crab cakes and the best French onion soup I have ever had. Here in Libby Montana... Heading back to Idaho in the morning.

McChicken wich, water, not bad, on the road, buck seven.

Put a chuck roast on the grill yesterday. Heavy dose of Tony’s, little oregano and S&P. Indirect with cherry and mesquite smoke. After a couple three hours I wrapped it in a foil pouch with a couple squeezed oranges and a few ounces of that Costco agave wine stuff. Then back on for another couple hours.

Today I pulled and chopped it. Tossed in a hot oiled skillet, fried it, then added the cooking liquid from yesterday.

It made the best damn tacos I’ve ever had.

Homemade Paella. Wasn’t too concerned with getting a fantastic photo just wanted to dig right in. Super freakin delicious

I love a smoking hot griddle, but surprised your kettle won’t get hot enough to sear. I piled up some briquettes and mesquite lump together the other day and holy fugk......it hurt to pull the steaks off to the side. I needed 3 foot tongs! Lol.

Maybe I need two chimneys or something.

Have been trying to do the reverse sear thing on the kettle lately.

Always over cook em trying to get a hard sear.

BLT"s No L. I know I bought a head?

I'm not a snob, just a man of discerning taste.

My wife and I were up early today so headed off on a hike, her app says just shy of five miles. We headed into town for lunch and tried a well established place that we have never been to. I had an excellent bunless 1/2# patty melt and a salad. No dinner tonight.

Spaghetti, no salad,

, French bread under the broiler, olive oil, garlic powder.

Last night was Korean from a little hole in the wall place. Big Bang Grill. Spicy pork, beef ribs, and shrimp.

Tonight is going to be pork chops and cheesy cauliflower.

Damn good if I say so myself. Used pre-sliced meat. Brown meat. Mix in two spoonfuls of flour, two spoonfuls of the red chili and some salt. Stir a bit and add water and a splash of red wine vinegar. Cook down. Took 10 minutes and everyone loved it. Will use picketed red onions next time.

Definite keeper for an end of a long hunting day meal.

Ranch Style beans with a bit of water and a tablespoon of Tiger Sauce. Slowly simmering to thicken back up and integrate flavor so the Tiger Sauce isn't "on top" of it.

Grocery store "certified Angus beef" (whatever that actually means) T-bone. Enough of a loin side to verge on Porterhouse. About 18 ounces. It is a nice looking steak, well marbled.

Gotta go, the charcoal chimney is ready to dump in the Weber.

Super potato olés.

Wagyu beef (strip loin), big prawns, scratch Caesar and lotsa good vodka by a big fire. I’m happily drunk.

Chicken patties, gravy and frozen veggies around these parts.

Pretty cool stuff.. We had Wendy’s burgers and fries.. My step daughter is going camping in the morning and we are heading home.. No cooking for her.. She is a sweetheart!! You guys cook some awesome stuff.. 99 I am a piker when it comes to the things you cook.. Pardon my ignorance but what was that?? Usually I would worry about my steak running away before I could eat it, but that was different.. Cook on guys, you are having things I never hear of.. Looks yummy, sometimes..

Ha, ha WCH !

Canned spaghetti (2 year out of date) & smoked gouda cheese, melted under the broiler.

Livin high.

Chiken fried round steak, gravy, of course, spuds, sweet corn.

Tonight's supper served two different ways. To the top a homemade Cornish pasty served with a side of homemade gravy that was made with a dark roux and drippings, with a side salad dressed with the House dressing from Philo's restaurant in Cornwall, OMG IT IS DELICIOUS STUFF! To the bottom, a homemade hand pie/pasty covered in the gravy made from a dark roux and drippings, and the same side salad, no dressing. All in all, a really good meal!

Large zucchini - hollowed out - in oven for a while - hamburger browned with green pepper, onion, and garlic - some petite tomato bits and a little tomato sauce added in, along with the chopped up bits of squash from the hollowing - hollow filled with the hamburger mixture - mozzarella cheese on top - back in the oven for a while - finished under the broiler to brown the cheese - extra hamburger mixture that didn't fit served on the side of the squash - cucumber with green onion and green pepper as salad.

That’s Bada** Paul!

country "ribs" - browned on the stove, then to the oven for two hours at 275, covered, then another half hour with B-B-Q sauce applied and uncovered - mashed potatoes, apples and onions, garden green beans done by Blanche, then fried with onion and slices of yellow squash

All sounds good men, we just lunches on Musk melon, sea salt.

Anther BLT to night, beefsteak rye, and the rest!

Chicken tits and a few left over country style ribs!

Only my 3x jacking w a gas grill. Wifes grandmother gave it to us as she has 2 others that haven't been lit in 3 years.

Not too bad, nice not waiting on coals but I still like my Weber.

Great looking salmon Paul.

Hope you saved me the crispy fat edges !!!!

Shawama spiced 1/3lb lamb burgers, lettuce & tomato from the garden, a touch of greek yogurt & toasted brioche bun.

Great sear from the flat top !

Midday, pulled pork, 5 bucks, bottle water a buck. Not much choice at the auction sale today.

Made a Greek pasta salad and grilled some 16 count shrimp and pineapple-cut calamari on the bbq. I really liked the calamari done this way.

Crispy skin specklebelly with a fancy port citrus blackberry pan sauce. Didn't need the sauce, but woulda been criminal to leave that goose fat in the pan.

[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]

Pork shoulder on the Kamado, grilled peaches with candied pecans and arugula salad, German-style potato salad.

Fresh crepes made with homemade (Tvorog) cheese and homemade red currant jelly for dessert.

Lamb loin chops and squash with red onion and cream. Why more people don't like lamb, I can't figure. Just as well, it cost enough as it is.

Looks good, Ed. What's the meat stuffing?

Zucchini guts, ground beef, bread crumbs, parsley, basil pesto, garlic, tomato sauce, salt and pepper. I mix up my first attempt and cook a 1" diameter patty and taste then tweak, repeat as necessary just as I do with my meatballs. Just tonight we had friends over and my wife made zucchini pancakes seasoned similarly with flour replacing bread crumbs and egg added. Those fried in grape seed oil and a tomato, bell pepper, red onion and cucumber salad with EVO, red wine vinegar, salt and pepper soaked in the fridge for a couple of hours left a group of happy campers.

Come on over folks, this is my midday treat!

Sorry Richard, I'll pass !

Did this 4 years ago, all was clear, so next 1 at age 60.

Paul, I'm thinkin' strong on taking a sliced tomato in a ziplock to eat as soon as I get out the hospital door.

If anyone needs me, I'll likely be nearby here.

Thin sliced pork chops salted,peppered, floured and fried. Ain't decided on veges yet but those porkers are one of the best things ever.

Smoked/grilled peaches, and a slab of halibut..

Mexican stewed chicken topped with pickled onion, pickled jalepenos, cheese, and mater's....

Any chance you have a recipe for that you can post up?

That arroz con pollo recipe you put up a while back has been a big hit at our house too. Thanks

It's not really a recipe honestly. I hard sear thighs about half cooked. Remove and then dice or shred. Then Wife does her thing which includes bone or chicken broth, tons of Herdez, cumin, Chile powder and other stuff. Use same pan so drippings are in there too. Maybe oregano too. We like oregano. Low simmer for a bit. Eat when you want. She made herself tostada's with it, I just ate it like you see.

Topping I just make myself.

Glad you enjoy the arroz con Pollo.

I'll post here:

From this book - https://eatdrink.ca/feast-recipes-and-stories-from-a-canadian-road-trip/

If you scroll down the link page, it is recipe #2

Ham and bean soup and cornbread.

We had ham boil the other night, so kept the liquor from that, along with some potatoes. Cut up garden carrots, some celery, and an onion. Dumped them and the ham bone into a pot with a can of chicken broth and the liquor from the ham boil. Cut up some extra ham bits and add them. Let the whole thing simmer for a couple of hours, then added a can of Great Northern beans and a can of Navy beans, along with the juice from each. Let it simmer for another 40 minutes or so.

I have really liked the ham and beans since I got smart and gave up on the stupid dried beans.

Somebody mentioned Italian sausage and peppers the other day, so we had that, fresh corn on the cob, lotsa tomatoes and some sliced mango.

We did a pretty good day out hiking primarily vertical down. Neither felt like cooking so last night's leftover pizza in about 15 minutes.

I smoked it at 265 for a little over an hour, then put it on the grill for a minute or two to crisp up the bacon. You could cut it with a fork, it was so tender.

Either that or access to a cookie cutter.

Laffin.... Pic was before the soy bath on my end.

I'd been out trying to kill a Mtn lion (glassed a group of 5 yesterday morning), get home, she had it made.

Formed by a measuring cup. Laffin....

I had about 6 fun sized Snicker's afterwards....

Spot and stalk on a lion?

Or dogs?

That sounds tough.

Was glassing for deer. Filming a big buck and half mile south was 2 adults and three half growners. Only had a handgun with me, they were in thick flats and disappeared into a wash hoping they'd bed for the day and be there that night. Went back to house, geared up, hiked back in there from the other side and made an hour long stand yesterday evening. No dice.

Done it before with a bow. Spot and stalk solo. Got to thirty, he growled at me then ran off. I had no shot as he was in brush.

Mine is a Camp Chef 4 burner Geno.

Elk steaks, seasoned and wrapped in bacon; diced potatoes onions, green peppers, cheese and seasoning in foil. All done on the grill.

You're always doing pork butts and stuff. You should try them sometime.

After doing the roasting/braising part, then shredding, crisping them up in some lard on that flattop of yours like they do in taco shops all over SoCal, whipping up (or purchasing) some decent pico de gallo or salsa verde, and maybe even going all out and making some homemade corn tortillas we might could see you becoming an honorary Mexican Eskimo.

Crockpot chicken and broccoli. From a recipe by that Pioneer Woman cooking show that my wife adapted. Called for thighs, my wife likes chicken breast better. She also gave it a good squirt of Sriracha and a dash of Tajin seasoning.

I'll request it again in the future:

I only wish now I'd made some bread today, but lately we've been using the "dough" setting on the bread maker and finishing the bread in the oven. Too hot for that today, wife will have to make something in the morning I guess.

Meatloaf tonight. I decided to try some of those fried onions (think green bean casserole) this go. That and steamed broccoli.

Decided to make spaghetti sauce instead, so last night I processed them then simmered them down to thicken.

This morning they got some browned stew meat and chicken breast added, onion, peppers and herbs fresh from the garden, garlic from a friend, and lots of simmering:

I made a loaf of volkkornbrot today, and while not traditional with spaghetti, it worked quite well for slopping up the gravy.

Tonight's supper was for sure comfort food for this 2nd generation Italian American boy. I even told my wife I'll probably gain a pound and I didn't even have a second bowl, which is almost a crime where I come from.

Tomorrow's left overs are going to be even better!

Slavyanka requested more of the mussels with vermouth pasta I made the other day, so I’ll make that. Decided to add some pineapple cut calamari in...pineapple.

But SS15 doesn’t like seafood much so I’ve talked him into a Vietnamese-style vermicelli with some pork belly and fish sauce that I made up last night. Got an obligatory “it’s OK”, but he hoovered the whole batch.

Slavyanka wanted homemade bread again, and since I was firing up the Kamado to do a chicken, I decided to do it on there.

Bread didn’t rise as well as I’d have liked because it was pissing rain today, but it came out well enough. No smokiness to it, though. Didn’t have a smoke log on the bbq until I put the chicken on. Then I used some green apple wood. Got a little darker than usual, but the flavour was fine. Nice and juicy.

We agree with Pesto on meat but we generally plant a couple purple basil plants. They don't grow as tall as our traditional ones and have a very different flavor but makes a spectacular more savory pesto for red meat.

Not sure, I know I don't do very well with those temps.

Butternut squash soup, strip loins, a bit of leftover turkey and the best darned Caesar salad I’ve ever made! Have to remember what I did, for next time.

Skillet porkchops, rice a roni, green goddess salad.

Tasty eats !

32 oz. Porterhouse has been warming for about forty minutes now. I'm about to start the charcoal in the chimney.

Beef barley soup made with Wagyu beef shank (awesome), followed by ham, scalloped potatoes, Caesar salad and smoked Mac and cheese, along with Slavyanka’s homemade sauerkraut. And lotsa vodka - Beluga, straight from Russia.

[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]

Homemade kraut here too. Found a butcher shop I'd heard about up in the big town the other day. Picked up some of their North Country German Sausage along with some other stuff. Figured it would go good with the kraut that was still bubbling.

Most everything local in tonight's dinner, some stuff really local. Mashed taters from my garden (milk and butter from the store, no cow here), kraut from my cabbages, apples in the kraut from my rancher neighbor's trees, and finally the sausages from not too far away (100 miles or so, which is kinda local out here).

[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]

Forgot dessert.

Apple pie made with those apples we got from the neighbor.

[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]

I live pretty good for a simple retired dude.

Looks good. I love sausage n’ kraut like that. Slavyanka uses apples in her kraut, too.

The Wagyu is actually local, about 5 miles from my office. Japanese guy’s father started the farm 30 years ago. Took them 2 years to import the stock through the US. For some reason they couldn’t bring it straight into Canada.

My buddy picked up some Wagyu strip loins a while back and he got this shank for $5/lb. He asked me if I wanted to try something with it and the first thing that came to mind was beef barley soup. He loves beef barley and said that this was the best he’s ever had. He even had seconds, which is something I never see him do.

Wagyu beef barley soup would sure be a hit here.

Me thinks there are varying degrees of understanding regarding "browning".

To add I'd eat the heck out of that stew.

At least he left the bone in. Good flavour, there.

Chili! Beans! Celery side! Water chaser.

It's 36 degrees here today. So I went through the freezer and pulled some of the last of the venison out. I just finished making a double batch of venison chili (John Schumacher's red game chili recipe) and cooking corn bread now.

Later in the week, I'll make pepper crusted, brandy marinated tenderloins with Roquefort butter (Allrecipes.com), then some jaeger schnitzel (Guy Fieri's recipe).

It's going to be a delicious week!!

Ha, ha.

2 brothers, both married, unfortunately !!

Middle brother here in Canada & younger brother in the USA.

All 3 of us love to cook. We are the product of parents, who shared all chores & particularly loved to entertain.

For my part, I started using cooking & being in the kitchen with Deb;

1) to show support, in the kids infant years

2) as a way to let go of the day to day stresses of work

3) It's a really comfortable place for both of us to communicate.

John, Not impressed with that chicken recipe. Chicken was cooked perfectly, but pffft on the recipe. Chicken on its own was good. Rub did not add enough flavor. Mashed potatoes and squash were excellent, though.😂🤣

Deer chili, fried deer heart and some fried deer liver.

Smoked a pork butt today. It was my first one and I think it was a success. The boys were eating it as fast as I could shred it! Haha!

Fantastic Paul....

OIY! Paul, Built in Beach Vacation Spot. Awesome Bro!

Oh yeah food too. 😁

Mutton chops cooked in a cast iron skillet.

I used a bit of olive oil and some butter. SPG on the chops before hand.

Used some parsley, thyme and rosemary in the pan.....with some minced garlic. The minced garlic was a mistake....all it did was turn black. Didnt hurt the flavor though.

Basted with the butter.

Turned out med rare.

Really, really good. Better than some beef steaks I have eaten in town.

Boiled carrots, potatoes and some home made cheese cake afterwards.

Tuna melts and tater chips. Yum.

Really good deer burger soup, Deb made on the weekend.

I love fall and winter food.

Yep, me too !!

Pure comfort.

Prime rib

Pork tenderloin stir fry;

[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]

I cooked something last night I have done twice that is worth passing on. I took 2 pork tenderloins and sliced into but not through in 3 places longways to flatten them out. Seasoned both sides with creole seasoning. Diced an apple ,1 1/2 Tb minced garlic, and a handfull of dried cranberries. Added some butter and mixed together and microwaved the filling till butter was melted.
Covered the bottom tenderloin with the filling. Then placed the other over it. Wrapped with bacon and tooth picked in place to hold it together. Cooked on charcoal with some hickory wood for smoke to 165. Let it rest before slicing.
Wife says it is her favorite pork dish.

Couple of thin/small pork shops fried up on the stove in a little olive oil, seasoning salt applied, with some dippy eggs. Super easy, quick and damned good.

Wife is a bit afraid of letting things get too brown in the oven. It tends to set off the new style smoke alarms where they're all wired together. Even our toaster has set the damn things off, and if one goes, all four do as they're all wired together. Friggen technology........if it saves one life right? Especially mine. Dogs run out the dog door when it happens.

Elk burger from 2015! Was in this package from a buddy's meat shop, and then I vacuum packed it... Modern living.

You are supposed to throw all your meat away if its more than a year old....

Mexican Sloppy Joes....aka Old ElPaso Enchiladas.

With all the crazy Christmas decorating and tearing apart of my living space that goes on this time of year I retreated to the kitchen and made 2 gallons of carcass stock gold.

Turned part of that into Brussel sprout, leek, carrot, great northern bean and turkey soup last night. Of course that brought all the kids running to the house for a steaming bowl. Lucky to have leftovers for tonight.

Chesapeake tributary wild oysters on the grill. Hot sauce and lemon waiting at the table

Looking good JM. Assume a few of them went down bareback.

Oh yeah. With just a little Texas Pete. There’s about 10 left over for an oyster po’ boy for lunch tomorrow.

I believe thats a rotisserie chicken sandwich with sliced chutney cheese.

Baked ham, baked beans, coleslaw, buttermilk biscuits, and butter.

Noon today, McDonalds on the road. Cheeseburger, small fries, water, good enough.

Pulled out frozen NorCal style chilaquiles "juice and pork" and dumped in on tortilla chips covered with jack cheese. Weekend blunder...

Had this the other night, likely will be my leftover dinner tonight. Had leftover turkey soup for lunch , with buckwheat groats instead of rice/noodles. I think my Russian side came out

But, back to dinner the other night. German style chicken with apples, some noodles, and a side of homemade kraut.

Wife saw one on the TV today and wanted a hot dog, which we never have around here as I get indigestion from them. But, I told her I had some sausages in the freezer so she made homemade buns. (see the bread thread for the results, they're not "perfect" by any means

)

Fried up the sausages, had the last of a crate of apples out to make some applesauce and thought, let's go for it!

Hanging out down in Morro Bay at the favorite spot for a bit. Put away some scallops and oysters and fresh fried rock cod as well

Good job,

One of our porfessors at skule had our fish health class or aquaculture class up to his place for a bbq at the end of the semester. One of the guys worked at the oyster farm in the bay, brought a gunny sack of large ones, someone else, brought some sort of Filipino seafood dish, I found some of them little octopuses at a local market and fixed them up, I seem to recall someone brought some abalone, another had gotten a bear and had some sausages, and of course there was salmon and rockfish.

I sure miss living near the coast.

When is a Kamado not a Kamado? When it’s a Tandoor!

I’ve been binge watching a guy named Georgy Kavkaz on YouTube. Makes some really great stuff with his Tandoor (really a large upright charcoal oven). I got thinking I could do the same with my Kamado, so with some ingenuity decided to try.

I got some kebab sticks and bent hooks in them so they can hang from the top of the Kamado (like a Tandoor). I do have to shorten them a bit. Then I took a coffee can and cut the bottom out and lined the coals around the outside. This helps stop flareups and keeps the coals from cooking from underneath (though I did have a flareup at the end because I was busy with my other offering tonight). It worked well for a first effort but I know I’ll have to watch it more carefully next time.

So I did Tandoor pork using a marinate of yogurt and a bunch of other spices.

Second offering was Katchapuri - Georgian-style cheese bread. When it’s done, you tear off a piece and mix the egg in with the hot cheese to finish cooking.

All in all, turned out great. The meat was tender and juicy and really flavourful. Just need to watch the flareups.

Mixed bag Pheasant and Quail coq a vin - used Alton Brown's recipe https://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/alton-brown/coq-au-vin-recipe-1952021 but used more onion and mandolined it thin instead of quarters, I also used a Malbec for the wine. The pheasant and quail filleted off the bone and I used a thick German style egg noodle instead of a lighter French one.

If you've not made it before, plan ahead. This is a make it one day and then heat in the oven the next day, make the sauce and recombine thing. Hearty winter fare.

Ingredient list for the Pelmeni seasoning is in the last post.

Way cool of you to provide that, I added that link to my recipe bookmarks.

I LOVE pelmeni (manti at Armenian places). Never knew there was a special seasoning for them, where I first had them in Juneau, AK, they served them with sour cream and hot sauce. I'll look for the seasonings next time I'm shopping in a big town with those kind of stores.

East-Europeans have seasonings for everything. If you get a chance to go into an East-European grocery store, you’ll be amazed at the dozens and dozens of combinations.

We always buy pre-made Pelmeni, usually made for SS15 as an afternoon snack.

She boils them in salted water until they float, then scoops them into a bowl with about 2 tablespoons of the water and 1 teaspoon butter. Sprinkle about 1/2 teaspoon of Pelmeni seasoning on and mix gently to melt the butter.

Only one I've been in was Mariupol in Spokane. Great sausages, bread, assortment of teas, and it's where I found out about Riga spratts. Never noticed the seasonings, but then again I wasn't looking. And had I, I couldn't read the label. I'd have to ask what it meant. Like with the buckwheat groats I got, I had to ask about their directions in Cyrillic

We lived where there was a bunch of Armenians, I could get the pelmeni/manti in their markets.

Now I have a hankerin' for some, dagnabbit.

If you ever had the opportunity to visit a grocery store in Ukraine your eyes would glaze over. Hundreds of types of sausage, prepared meats, cheeses, fish (fresh, dried, smoked, cured, pickled).

You could literally eat something different every day for a year.

Here's a video of the dried fish and sausage counter in a small "fast food" beer joint. Ukrainians like dried fish with their beer, instead of peanuts or chips. You stop in and pick your beer, at about $1.25 US/liter and then buy some dried fish, go sit in the park and enjoy the weather.

I just found a recipe online.

1/2 cup mayo
1 bunch of Cilantro, trimmed of big stems
2 garlic cloves
Healthy shake of salt
2 jalapeños, cleaned of ribs and seeds
Juice from one lime
1/3 cup grated parmesan or manchego cheese

Put in food processor.

I agree with Greg's statement that leaving one jalapeño hot (with ribs and seeds) is a good idea. As above, it wasn't spicy at all. It was my first time making it, and thought I'd go easy.

I did almost the same thing but I went maybe a quarter cup of mayo, 3 peppers, 4 cloves, and 2 tablespoons avocado oil rather than the cheese. I preferred it with no cheese believe it or not....

Really good too with a pinch of mint leave which is the traditional way to make it...

Fun to play with...

Very similar to my cilantro cream sauce. I'm betting the jalapenos are a nice little kick.

Pork shoulder

Please tell me about the salad?

Wabi, it’s actually a fairly straight-forward potato/egg/mayo salad with pickles and baloney or ham. Easy to make, just takes time to dice up all the ingredients.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Olivier_salad

Thanks! I'll try that.

Last night was braised lamb shoulder with a rich gravy and roasted root vegetables.

Didn't use a recipe.....

Bacon, garlic, onion, chicken pasta.

Used olive oil, butter and heavy cream.

Salt pepper garlic.....deglazed with some chicken broth.

Parsley and McCormick Italian seasoning.

Finished the noodles in the chicken and sauce.

Was rich...but very good.

WCH- most of my plates are pretty simple and don't require a lot of explanation. I will occasionally make a pan sauce, but that's usually simple too.

We like elk in this house 😁

Last night, and tonight for leftovers. Chicken shepherd's pie:

[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]

Fairly cheap thrill.

I took some "petite sirloin" beef steak, sliced into strips about 5/8" thick, wrapped with thick bacon, dumped red salsa over it... Roasted all day then gave it some high heat to char the exposed bacon and tomato.... Finger food roasted beef bacon and char. Pretty good potential. Maybe with some pasta and toast next time.

Been pretty happy with making a pizza (smoked clams and oysters!) on whole grain sour dough bread... As a left over, flop it in a frying pan to crispen up. Crazy good stuff.

That looks great Robert. You ladle that gumbo over a bowl of rice...?

Supposedly tomorrow. We shall see. The new pup is on my lap an awful lot of late...

Dogs are great, puppy's are so good.

Roux is legit. I always put okra in a gumbo. It isn't slimey if you cook it long enough. It just disappears and thickens the gumbo.

We have several good Pho restaurants here. Forks are definitely optional. Some of the Asians around here can shovel a lot more Pho in their mouth with chopsticks than any Anglo can with a fork. Lol.

I love good Pho. I usually get the “special” which is tendon, tripe, meatballs and raw sliced meat.

Po' folks food for me tonight. But, it's one of my favorite "comfort foods". Growing up in a relatively large family living on the traditional, at that time, one earner budget, we ate it relatively often. Enough for me to have fond memories of it. I don't make it much as my wife doesn't like gravy, weird eh?

Hamburger meat, brown gravy and rice. Some onion and garlic cooked in with the burger for flavor, homemade gravy tonight but mom probably used a package or that stuff in the little jar.

Some steamed broccoli to top it off. Told my siblings in our daily text, my tummy is happy!

Leftover corned beef from last night made a couple of fabulous Reuben sandwiches for lunch today. Urrrrppp!

Lockford Meat and Sausage is 15-20min from front door. Selective temperance required.

There is a good retail butcher 100 miles to the east of me.

We dont have the population in North Montana to have a huge selection....but the quality is excellent.

Time was you couldn't throw a stone and not hit a really good old world butcher/meat processor in this part of the state.

We had one in town years ago.

He burnt it down for the insurance.....and several other businesses around him.

The town over west had a good one too.

Nothing on the order of "old world"....but good for up here....just past nowhere.

I will never forget the meat and cheese tray that Steve and Mable Ghisletta put out for us in Napa.

That is a cherished memory. Out of this world good.

I’ve been visiting SLO since I was born, and haven’t come across that label. Very fond memories with my grandparents there. the tour of what’s new with the city and downtown during every visit. My grandpa was involved with cal poly/politics/city planning there from the 60’s until his passing in 2019. the most recent trip we made to finalize the selling of the house will unfortunately probably be the last. If I find myself down that way again- I’ll be sure to try the sausage/jerky. May even order some just to support the local company. Thanks for the suggestion.

Care to share the recipe? I haven’t had Chile relleno casserole in a long time and wouldn’t be against making it

Well robert not sure why you rate but I've been asking for her to write down her recipe for many years. EdM has been waiting for two years. I must have been good in bed last night because here it is fresh off the presses this morning.

Caveats: This is her very basic meatless recipe for a small 2qt casserole. Doesn't include her homemade red chile sauce topping recipe. Assumes you know how to cook as no techniques are explained. As well she didn't include any meat filling info.

****Poblano not Pasilla peppers**** Wife's barrio spanglish coming out sorry.

Well let her know it’ll be put to use! Thank you. When I get around to cooking it I’ll post some pics.

I'm gonna give that one a try to Fats, it looks wonderful.
I think I can find some pasilla peppers but if i can't what would make a suitable substitute? I can about always get Anaheims and poblanos

Robert, I cut up a kiwi for my son yesterday and thought of your Pops, hope he still likes his little cutter!

Picked up a 3 pack of Baby backs from Costco last week and threw them on the Traeger yesterday while doing some work around the house. I made 2 racks with some BBQ sauce(modified Sweet baby rays) and the last rack with some butter and seasonings as I’m not a huge BBQ sauce fan on my ribs. Sure can’t beat the 3-2-1s for tenderness and they sure are simple to make.

What’s in the modified sweet baby rays? I find that’s my favorite bbq Sauce

Next time I go to Costco I’m almost certain baby backs will be added to the cart

I just took some sweet baby rays and added a few things like Tapatio, granulated garlic, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, chili powder and cumin. Was more of an experiment than anything. Everyone said they were delicious.

First week of Orthodox Lent, so fasting - no meat, fish or dairy. And I don’t think I’ve lost a single pound.

Did Falafels from a mix, deep-fried then on a pita with veggies and Tzatziki sauce. Turned out pretty good!

We love those things. Have to go over the hill next week to my eye doc. Big town over in OR has a Falafel Republic there that makes a decent one. Sometimes I go with schwarma though and the wife gets the falafel.

Some sort of pan cooked "bbq" chicken which was actually pretty tasty, wild rice, and a can of corn. Quick meal the wife made up for us. I was happy.

Paul, Did Mum & Dad immigrate there?

Looks incredible.

I'd be wadefishing off that sand bar every chance I got.

Greg, no, we emigrated here !

Left Australia in 2005.

Miss "my" island, but nothing else about big city life.

Mum & Dad retired there, but we'd been going, originally holidaying (tent camping)since I was 5, I think.

They bought a "fishing" shack when I was in high school & eventually upgraded.

Bet I spent more than every second weekend there, since I could drive.

1 hour barge trip, or 20 minute water taxi trip, after a 45 minute drive from Brisbane city.

Saw a can of minced lobster at the store so decided to do lobster-stuffed mushrooms. The minced lobster was like a wet paste, so not very pleasing to the eye. However, very flavourful!

We’ll definitely buy it again. Probably try it in a bisque or a mousse next time..

I had some leftover Herdez Salsa Verde and mixed the two together to soften the tortillas in, then added more of the mix over the top of them all. And dressed the ones on my plate with that Cremosa. Probably pick up another jar or two for future use.

Oh, they were last night's dinner too, and maybe this afternoon's lunch. If my 25% Mexican wife doesn't get at them first.

Did lamb leg on the Kamado for Easter dinner, with a ghee and cilantro drizzle, plus a Mediterranean Orzo salad. Plus Slavyanka’s Easter bread. She wanted me to do some pork in case she didn’t like the lamb. Told me next time, just do the lamb. Lol.

Years where we have an abundance of grind chunks, I'll send some away for Brats, Smokies &/or pepperettes.

I typically send it to North Country Meats, in Thunder Bay, 4 hours away.

& to ensure that I only get "my meat" back, I usually send in Feb/March ( well out of season).

Your fresh fish food kills me man. One of the things I simply cannot get in any kind of quality down here....

Hebrew National and Dennisons Chili dogs.

Skillet cooked of course.

None of that warmed over limp pig dick boiled crap.

Chili dogs are one of the three true food cravings I get.

Chili dogs, Blue Bell cookies and cream ice cream, and homemade strawberry shortcake, the simple version with homemade biscuits, strawberries with a light syrup, and homemade whip.....

I could pound me some strawberry shortcake right now.

I LOVE strawberry short cakes.

Hold the strawberries and cream please.

I dont get them but maybe every three four years or so.

Chicken parm

I am about to put some teal breasts in a marinade to cook on a smoky fire tonight for supper. Wrapped in bacon of course.

Carnita hash, refried beans and Mamacita's homemade tortillas.

Busy week of work. Family eaten and scattered around when I got home, just drank my dinner. About to hit the sack.

This was store bought. I did have a great corned beef recipe but the site doesn't exist any more. Pretty straightforward, though. Next time I make it I'll smoke some for pastrami.

I ate little for dinner last night and I don't generally eat breakfast so I thought I would dump $9 on lunch today. Killer though I should have had them hold the beans, rice and torts.

She goes, yeah, don't buy anymore store bought red meat. None. Never again. Let's shoot it all. We eat a crap ton of wild game but I think we might have just gone all the way tonight.

First dinner since we arrived here in North Idaho. Mowing, weed eating and raking the property. Also got the 2006 Suburban and 1999 F-150 running though the former with a flat passenger rear tire. The two ATV's were good to go as well. All on Harbor Freight battery "tenders" since last September. Boboli pizza crust with shrooms, onions, salami and pepperoni with slices of wet mozzarella. It was a great day. That said, as we cooled into the 40's this eve, I found the blower on the gas fireplace is humming but not blowing air so off to the wood burner. Another bit of work for the coming week.

Kids favourite - "Paul's" spicy pasta;

[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]

Love spicy pastas.

Started putting hot sauce on my Pasta back in HighSchool.

Back then it was either Pico Pica or Tabasco.

Bring my own bottle to school put in pizza, pastas, potatoes.

Got the nickname SuperTaco.

Super simple too.

Bacon, onions & lots of red chili flakes cooked down, deglaze the pan with a real good glug of dry white wine.

Simmer till liquid gone, deglaze again till liquid almost gone, add 1 litre heavy cream, once boiling, reduce to simmer, to thicken cream.

Coupla double handfuls of Parmesan/remarno & stir in, add aldente cooked pasta & mix.

Plate & devour !

My wife's birthday is today. I have everything ready to put together a couple of crab louie's with the crab we caught in Ketchikan a week or so ago. The dressing came out pretty well. She's at the lake swimming the pup. I am now sipping a martini.

deer sausage, swiss cheese, and ritz crackers

and a good bourbon

Elk cheeseburgers, smoked, spicey cowboy beans and lime cilantro slaw. And too many margaritas.

Though it's the wrong weather for stew, I made some anyway, using a 2 lb roast from the mulie I took last year. The backstraps a few weeks ago were a huge hit but the stew may be even better. I aged the quarters in the garage for two weeks. First time I've ever tried that and the dang mulie is as tender as beef and prolly indistinguishable from it taste wise.

My wife is now telling me to kill another mulie this season.

Indistinguishable??

I should clarify....indistinguishable from store bought beef. Apologies to the cattle ranchers for the mistake.

Why I oughtta!

Although the venison in New Zealand was way better than the beef.

It sure does happen.

Its never too hot for stew....and green light from wife to do more hunting.

Win-win.

After making leg of lamb for Easter dinner, Slavyanka decided it’s her new favourite meat. So she asked for it again for her birthday yesterday. The aroma of the herbs and spices cooking in the marinade are fabulous! The only thing left was some scraps on the bone that I finished for lunch today.

She thinks it’s great that Americans celebrate her birthday with fireworks.

Heck yeah.

Corn flour, is this corn meal? Never heard it called corn flour.

Don't know how Canucks do it but 50/50 seasoned flour and corn meal is about as good as it gets for a dry fish breading...

Middle of nowhere NM trying to find a big buck in a desert unit that is flooded with very low density. I'm screwed.

But I did tailgate burgers over propane grill with cheese. Trying to keep bugs off my phone light going to bed with 83 degree temps. Great times...grin ..

Good luck GW. Sounds like more fun that sitting at home!

I made cheeseburgers on a pan, with all the fixings, and onion rings in the airfryer. Got no complaints, and few leftovers.

Any one use an air fryer for making french fries?? I bought my wife one and we never used it.. My step daughter found it and I saw others made fries in it.. Do you use real potatoes or frozen ones from the market?? I am no cook and my daughter never used one...

I don't make my own fries, but frozen tots, fries, or onion rings come out really good to me. Steak fries, curly fries, and even orange fries. Well, it depends on what's in the bag, but even generic brands come out just fine. I just don't want to deal with a dedicated big daddy fryer with oil, so the airfryer and frozen junk food is good enough for me.

Some of the frozen jalapeno poppers are pretty good too, and I get those frozen taquitos for the kids. And breaded cheese sticks. Have a bag of breaded okra that I'm going to try soon.

Have leftover fries or tots from a restaurant? They come out really good too, in the airfryer. Better than baking in the oven. Last batch I did came out golden brown and crunchy, and better than what was served at the restaurant. You just can't overload the basket. If you have a lot to cook you need to do smaller batches, or dump and mix them up frequently. Spray oil in an aerosol can helps.

Cardboard pizza.

Yes, agree, with added baking powder (or just use self rising flour).

Me too when my neighbor gives it to us Ill share.

Took her son to emergency room yesterday morning. Turns out he was having a gall bladder attack. Nice people, French Basque. Rest of family was up at sheep ranch so I ran him down there. Sat with him till they took him in.

So mama gave us several of these pies she had in the freezer, bunch of fresh garden vegetables and fresh eggs from their chickens.

Mama is 93 and makes most people 40 years younger look like lazy bums. Families have been neighbors since the 1950's.

We made halibut tacos from the fish we caught a few weeks ago in Ketchikan. Grilled the fish, cabbage, avocado, onions and a nice sauce I came up with. KILLER.

They sell some fish tacos over west.

One of the best things I ever ate.

Grilled is way better than fried.

It must be a taco time of year, I made them last night as well. I had about 3 pounds of elk round steak left in the freezer and figured it would make a good starting point for tacos. Turns out, tacos make for a great way to introduce people to game meat. My niece and her boyfriend have been living with us since the Fake Flu and last night, they declared the grilled elk in the tacos to be amazing. While I still can't get them to hunt on their own, after this and the mulie backstrap, they now support hunting without reservation. Pretty good transformation for two left leaning kids from urban areas.

Thumbs up.

Right on Man !!

Have any of the hot sauce lovers tried this? It’s become my favorite.

Thanks alot robham another hot sauce I gotta get. Hows it compare to regular El Yucateco red?

Chicken nachos are good but for me the chik has got to be grilled and chopped. Still prefer classic ground beef.

The smaller shoulder roast was great. Pulled nice but not too soft.

The larger leg roast is a slicer. Thats okay too.

The untrained would have never known the shoulder meat wasn't beef. It was from our animals.

The leg roast is a little stronger. Not our animal, but local.

Chicken tacos.
Wish I had 4 more….

Mostly we eat light in the evening, popcon sometimes.

Just back from Idaho. Simple ground beef tacos tonight.

Gorgeous evening;

Last night, as the wife was on the way home from running a dog and visiting relative in the Bay Area, I got to cook...........................liver!

Free liver, as the folks I got 1/4 beef from earlier this year tossed the liver, heart, and tongue in for free!

Anyone else ever tried it on the grill?

1/2" thick, 2 minutes timed per side as from a link I found. Came out perfect. I hate overcooked liver more than I do overcooked steak, and I really hate that.

[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]

If it's fired up, I might as well make use of the heat, right? Once the liver was done, I put on some spicy sausages and chicken thighs, along with some small onions I just pulled to go with my liver:

It all turned out quite yummy:

What is Pavlova?

I stuffed a zucchini last night that was pretty tasty. Tonight we have a handful of friends coming over for cocktail hour then my wife will grill burgers. I will make a tomato, bellpepper, cucumber and red onion salad "aged" with oil, vinegar, salt and pepper for a few hours in the fridge.

Bought a 2” prime rib steak a few weeks ago. Today was first chance to get at it. Seared on the Kamado at 700F, then on indirect until 130F in the middle.

Everything in the salsa came fresh from the garden today.

Imagine that, a guy named Geno liking pasta. Comfort food made even more special by using the family colander, which I got when we distributed mom's stuff when she went in the Alzheimer's place years and years ago. Jokingly sent that pic to my siblings in our daily family text and said "I wonder how many pots of skettis got drained in that thing" ? One of the brothers replied, 2x a week x 50 years. And I have a suspicion he's not far off. I don't use it as much, noodles are only once a week or less now, and many times we just fix enough for one meal for the two of us. The pot gets drained using the lid only.

Dinner was pasta primavera of sorts. Tomatoes and squash from the farmers mkt yesterday, onion, garlic, basil, thyme, and oregano from the garden, same for the couple of dried peppers I put in for taste, and sausage (spicy Andouille? I tossed the wrapper the other day and forgot) from the good butcher shop up the road.

I have a happy tummy as a kid might say:

The sweet of the roasted figs go perfectly with the savory bacon and tart cheese.

Late night for us. First home game for HS football. Oldest is a freshman this year. Leftover stank pork, as my kids call it. Don't know who posted it, but pretty sure that I got it from this forum. Just pork and kraut in the crockpot. Stinks like hell, so I cook it outside or in the garage. Maybe the easiest meal to prepare.

I’ve made it twice since you posted that great recipe. It’s become one of my favorites.

Instead of Spanish rice she made steamed basmati and poured her red mole over the top. Way better IMO. Kids still wanted the old stand by, of course.

We had the middle son's wedding here yesterday so catered Mexican. Tonight there is seven here remaining so burgers are minutes away from the grill. Beer and Pinot Grigio outside, a Manhattan inside...

I added some fire roasted diced tomatoes and let them simmer with the chicken after the chicken was done. I made a good layer with this mixture into the casserole. It all turned out perfect. Plated and topped with a big dollop of sour cream and some good salsa, it was a damn good meal…!

I suppose the first. Would you mind sharing the recipe? Thank you?

Bring Pho broth to a boil, add raw shrimp & brown (wholewheat) ramen noodles, once shrimp & noodles are al dente, add veges of choice.

I did saute the mushrooms in a separate pan.

Simple, quick & tasty.

Thank you!

Not really a recipe, it I do something similar to this a lot.

Saute one chopped onion, when softened add some garlic, then add a bag or two of rice cauliflower. I then like to add a small amount of liquid to steam it real quick. Maybe 1/2 cup of white wine and 1/2 cup stock or you could just use all stock. Cook until liquid is almost gone. Then puree in blender and add avocado oil. I really like the flavor of it in the preparation. You could use other fat, but I recommend avocado oil. Simple.

Good eats here gents.

Don't have much to post. Been at duck camp, so had some good food in the blind. Here's a breakfast burrito.

Great ideas, timberrunner. I've got some riced cauliflower in the garage freezer. I've made this dish many times, using both fresh and frozen riced cauliflower, but something has always been missing from the taste.

Thank you.

I must be gaining ground

I am originally from Chicago and years ago I brought Venison Tenderloins in for Christmas when in town
My family was kind, but avoided them like they were radio active I never even cooked them I could just tell. I packed them up and took them home

I got a bit salty about it, but now years later

My family comes during the summer they love Venison sliders
We were just in for Thanksgiving and made Venison Nachos none left they scoffed them

I think my favorite was my Sister who seldom cooks asked for Chili meat (which is my ground) she made Chili with meat I left and loved it
It took a while but once they tried it with an open mind they enjoy what I bring and I for sure enjoy bringing it

Jud,

It really doesn't take much though having pups in the house again has been wonderful. Kind of kicked our azz's out of the chairs.

I make a Chipotle-type salad that is one of my staples. I’ll either use ground beef or fajita chicken or fajita beef. I’ll use lettuce, sour cream, diced tomatoes and jalapeños, grated cheese, and a bunch of hot green chile salsa. The combination of flavors is pretty dope…!

I’ve never cut a tritip into steaks. How was it? I almost grabbed one of those lodge pans the other day but passed. Might have to reconsidered it.

The local Costco would sometimes have tri tip steaks. I had em a handful of times and they were dammed good. I haven’t seen them in a while.

Good for a quick weekday meal in 30 min.

When I lived in an apartment, If I wanted steak I’d have to cook them on the cast iron, burgers too.

There’s not a dammed thing wrong with steak or burgers on a skillet!

How was the grill pan to clean?

I can not post the huge steaks on the carbon steel skillets, shown in The Man Who Shot Libert Vallance.

Tri-tips in SLO would drop to $.99/pound and $1.99 were a dime a dozen. This was 1980 - 1985. No more than burger. We grilled the hell out of them on Friday - Sunday when we had time from school.

Pre covid you could still catch some sales where tritip was 2.99 some times. Right now it’s running 9.99 at the local Costco. Ridiculous!

Good Lord! That's an incredible haul.

When I was a kid, my dad told us that because we lived in San Francisco, we were allowed to eat shellfish even though it's not kosher (it made sense to a kid, but so do a lot of other illogical things). He used to take us to either Muni Pier, Pacifica Pier or Half Moon Bay to catch Dungeness crab and to this day, I still remember and crave those crab. Lots of reasons to hate CA, but when you get through the political stuff it's still a place of amazing bounty for those who put the effort in.

Amazing catch, Certifiable, I am so jealous.

Thank you Remsen and of course you are correct about CA. These crabbing shenanigans are all out of HMB. If I recall you hailed from just a bit north of me.

Crabbing isn’t cheap nor is it particularly easy, especially when the ocean is up… but it’s my favorite kind of fishing.

Nothing beats the anticipation of waiting and hoping for some color as the puller slowly winds the pot up from the depths

Yesterday we started off in a hole as the first pot in the string was completely and utterly, gone. Searched and searched and it had simply got up and walked away. Hate to think of thievery in a case like that as there are other plausible explanations but..so minus $200 right off the bat.

Next pot had 5 followed by 8 then a 3.

We had our frequent companion and trusty boat bittch with us and I told him after the 3 that we were in need of a “wow” pot and this was his time to shine. So I handed him a fresh IPA and snagged the buoy while he washed down the salt spray.

He rose to the occasion and the next pot had 17 keepers in it including some genuine monsters.

That made limits for 3 so it was time to head in with 4 pots left untouched. Time to give the boat a thorough scrubbing and flushing and get water to boiling…

Sposed to be getting sporty out there for a few days so next trip won’t be for a bit but what a great first time after a month+ delay to the opener

Yep, born in SF, grew up in Daly City and spent a LOT of time between there any Half Moon Bay as a kid. Great crabbing, striper fishing and a bunch of other stuff. Your crabbing success is like the good old days, at least as I recall them. We always crabbed from the piers and never had the kind of haul you had. Sounds like a kick butt way to spend a day, that's for sure.

Due to some colds making their rounds we had to wait on the traditional duck/red cabbage/potato dumplings dinner until today. I am not a great cook in most regards but this is a meal I can nail consistently, thanks to my Sudeten grandma teaching me when I was a kid. For those who were knocking the necks, the duck neck is my absolute favorite, followed by that forkful of bliss, a crispy piece of duck skin, a dumpling and a bit of red cabbage.

I see you are in western Va. years ago I used to hunt in Clifton Forge , Oriskany, Roaring Run area. Great place to hunt deer and bear along withTurkey. A lot of government land along with Westvaco land .
I really loved that you could hunt all three at one time and shoot a hen or gobbler with a rifle. When they changed the seasons up , My group, usually 5-8 of us camping and hunting for a week. Sadly quit going-when the big game seasons got all busted up.

This is my favorite way to do elk.

Defrost, salt and season.

Get lump charcoal and smoking wood with diffuser plate to about 175-185. Put seasoned elk on and cook until 110 degree meat temp, usually takes more or less an hour. Take off smoke and get a steel pan smoking hot with quality fat and sear. Let it rest for 10 min and slice.

If you want a little fat, top with some compound butter.

Here's what I did, from memory.

Sautéed 1/2 onion, 1/2 red bell pepper, 1/2 orange bell pepper and 2 sticks of Celery, finely chopped. Got them softened up, added some garlic, chopped parsley and a few chopped green onions and then took off heat and cooled.

Chopped up two pounds of crawfish tails, mixed with above, and a healthy done of Cajun spice, salt, 3 eggs, some breadcrumbs, about 1/4 cup creole Mustard and 1/4 cup mayo. Make patties and sautée in hot oil/butter.

Mix 1 cup of mayo with juice from 1/2 lemon, and some Tabasco. Add smoked paprika, garlic and onion powder and salt and pepper. Mix and let it refrigerate for 1 hr to let come together.

The food DOES look great, but as a woodworker I could not help but notice that striking table!

Is there a story behind it? I've seen somewhat similar furniture made from logs recovered after a century or more of lying submerged in a swamp, lake or river, then raised and milled and used for furniture. The outer pieces seem to be oak, the inner ones something different, possibly cypress or old growth pine?

Just wondering - and guessing!

John

Hey John. I’d have to look at the paperwork if we still have. We bought the Ol place 20 years ago, the Ol lady wanted to fill up her dinning room with a “lifetime “ dinette set. We loaded up and headed over to Centralia to Ayala bros furniture and bought it. Damn nice setup, heavier than hell and built to last several lifetimes. Thanks for the compliment. 👊🏻

San Joaquin Delta asparagus, It don't get any better.

Details

Cleaned up the Weber grill and used it for the first time this year. Seasoned and browned up a rack of pork ribs. Shut off half the grill and moved them to the cooler side. Put whole carrots with real butter and seasonings in aluminum foil on warm side of grill. Let them cook about 1 1/2 more hours. Put Sweet Baby Ray's sauce (Sweet n Spicy) on for last 30 minutes.

Turned out perfectly. Tender, but not quite ready to fall off the bone. I like to chew meat off the bone. Wimped out and bought a container of already made garlic mashed potatoes. It was a great meal.

I could not believe pork ribs were $4.99 per LB. $17.27 for mine. Thanks Brandon!

Porkburgers, hashbrowns, cauliflower.

Been absent. Eating meat only. Got boring.

Family came home from their vacation, so did some stuff peppers with homemade ceaser dressing. Good to eat some variety.

Dammit. Lemon and strawberry sounds like a great cake

I'm not even remotely hungry, but the pics on this page have me droolin'!

I was super lazy today. Never even took a shower and stayed in the house all day, except a trip though McDonald's tonight. I hardly ever go there cause it's nasty.

Ordered a fish sandwich and fries. I figured $5.00 would catch it, but no, $7.48 and that was with no drink! Could have ordered a "real meal" from a good place down the street for $3.00 more.
Live and learn.

I'll shower tomorrow and do better!

Went to Kumas yesterday for an Iron Maiden burger.
Supposedly award winnin mac n cheese.

The ol lady is a weird eater, bland stuff etc.....heavy metal themed bar/ burger joint.

So she got the pork and some mac. I didnt hear her talk for 15 mins, she was shoveling the mac in like crazy. And normally she is painfully slow eater.

Guess is was pretty good LOL

Took some of the mac home, just reheated and textd, said even better reheated.....best had

Dunno what that all means, outside of having to go back and get more. I suggested a full portion to go next time, after dinner.

This is one of the most interesting posts I've ever seen on the 24HCF!

Crystalized Ginger? WTF?

Must try.

It's good chit.

Is the crystallized ginger the same or similar to the candied ginger Costco would sell?

Not sure robham, I'll have to check with the head of the acquisition and procurement department.

We are at the half way point to our place in north Idaho, Moab to be exact. We split a pretty good plate of smoked tri-tip with a twice baked potato mix. It was very good. Off to Idaho Falls tomorrow.

I think Im good on smoke for a while.

Took me over a year to get her to write down that chile relleno casserole that I posted. And
I'd bet she does it slightly different every time.

Young Richard said it was the best steak I ever cooked.

It’s a great cut. Not to be rude- but make sure you know how to slice it as the grain isn’t consistent through the whole steak.

Slicing with the grain is a sure way to almost ruin a tri tip

While on a trip up to Oregon last week- our hosts 9 yr old som demanded to know who cooked the steaks- and wanted whoever cooked them to stay for a month as the steak was the best he’d ever had. I don’t think I’ll let his dad forget about that.

Gotta love it when kids have no filter or forethought.

Tritip is a pretty good cut especially when seasoned and cooked like you did!
Makes an excellent sandwich also. Sliced thin with some salsa on a toasted/buttered hoagie bun or sourdough roll.

We ate the hell out of them in college for as low as .99 a pound (1980 - 1985) in SLO (kinda where they originated) . My Mother aways had me bring a few home as they just were not widely available back then. We used them for stew, chili Colorado... they were cheap and good.

My boys were in the mood for wings last night. Put some Meat Church Gospel rub mixed with a little cornstarch on them. Cooked them on the kettle with some apple wood. They came out damn tasty!

Did an elk round roast today. Seared it in a hot pan, then deglaze pan with 2 onions. Put it all in a crock pot with some green olives, garlic, a little butter, a shake of Worcestershire and some homemade bone broth. Cooked 8-9 hrs. Strained the au jus when it was done and served it on cauliflower rice. Should of taken a picture.

We had neighbors over for cocktails and a variety of finger food tonight. Two couples, one of which ran and cared for the Budweiser Clydesdales for years. They now work for a rancher 20 miles away that breeds, shows and sells Clydesdales. They just delivered two males and two females last week. We are going to head to the ranch with them and visit the horses. Beautiful weather and a fun night.

Dear Cattle Ranchers (especially those in Montana):

I know I don't eat much beef (or meat in general), but when I do, I'm reminded of why many religions (my own included) not only sanction the eating of meat but celebrate it as a gift from the good lord to mankind. I eat a lot of vegetarian stuff but there is absolutely nothing like a good steak, in my case, boneless ribeyes.

I'd take one cattle rancher over a billion software coders if I were to start a new society.

Looks like you got a good do on them!

Haven't cooked indoors once since I set up the CampChef last Sunday.

Basque sheep ranchers across the street give us some homemade sausage.

That's what I was thinking when they brought it over.

Nope, pork and veal with some special kinda basque chili powder.

Best of all no friggin fennel seed.

Cool. I bet it was good. We just had an entire ewe ground up. Gonna sausage her. Secret New Zealand recipe.

Not big on fennel?

Was really good sausage. Piment d'Espelette is the chili they used.

Italian Grandfather put fennel it in every thing and Mom followed suit. At least it seemed that way to me as a kid.

Trust me though I won't pass up anything served to me free.

Don't know much about sushi other than the basic Califrnia roll type stuff,but that looks great Greg.

Crock pot in this case.

Serve with plenty of cold beer. Hint.

If it wasn't 92° today I'd have baked some killer cornbread to assist.

Cold smoked the rack first. Then did it in the oven exactly how I always do. Homemade barbecue sauce. Homemade potato salad, almost like German potato salad, homemade sweet and spicy coleslaw with raisins and apple

Shaun, that Chile Verde you made looks delicious! I love really good Chile Verde and it's hard to find around these parts.

Good stuff. We had quarter pound hot dogs with fixens and chips.

Had some leftover pulled pork in the freezer. Didn’t want to take time to shred it fine so put it through the grinder with the coarsest blade. With some veggies on the griddle made for some good fajitas.

I've never heard of Portuguese tarts, but you have intrigued me so I started looking for recipes.

Unfortunately, I've found MANY recipes, and they differ a LOT.

Any chance of directing me to the recipe (or approximate recipe) that Deb used?

Your family eats so well that I think I'd be hard pressed to improve on what you do!

^^^^^^^^^^Winning Rick^^^^^^^^^^

Paul,

I love when I see people knowledgeable about food, especially Italian food. Most float their pasta in sauce. You are doing it right!

The only improvement I can suggest is to start making your own ravioli......

Got some Louisiana shrimps getting hot. I'm about to tear into the brown water. See ya on the other side.

[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]

Last Christmas. My Mother and both Grandmothers used a ravioli rolling pin to make them. My sister took it when our Mother passed and it has sat in a closet ever since. So one at a time now.

[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]

I just found this section so no pics cause it's gone but...

Leftover baked pork chops with fresh local found chanterelles in a wine/butter/garlic sauce, frozen mexican street corn from a box (costco), crusty baguette for the sauce. I'm not a huge fan of that type of corn but Mrs. Geno loves it. Everything else was spot on.

Tonight my wife grilled burgers and zucchini slices with EVOO, Parmasan, salt and pepper on the latter. I doctor'd my burger via Italian meatball. Killer all the way around.

Proper New Mexican Chile rellenos, beans, red Chile stacked enchiladas and proper accompaniments....

Love this.

Our local Greek orthodox church has an annual Greek food fest. It used to be great. Spanakopita and dolmathes were my favorite. The last few years, I feel like they are getting it catered by someone who doesn't know what Greek food is. Disappointing.

Baklava is scrumptious...

Actually, baklava is the one thing I don’t like on that list. To me it’s just pointlessly sweet with no other flavour.

All food made on site. They have a huge commercial kitchen and hall that they rent out to public for events when not in use. The family that owns the San Diego Chargers is the church's number one benefactor. Grandson's school is behind the church compound and you could smell the food cooking for a week when I went to pick him up.

I made chili in the instapot with most stuff from the garden.
Made sourdough bread to wipe up the chili. Got a crazy good ear on the crust.
I just put a second bread pan on top of the bottom pan to hold in the steam for 30 minutes. Kinda easier than a dutch oven.
Now that it is cooler, I'll baked 2 loaves a bread a week or so. Mostly sourdough, but yeast based also. Sometimes rye, sometime herbs like rosemary/olives/garlic, to keep it interesting. Of course, rolls and dessert breads are an easy twist, and again keep it interesting.

No problem. See below.

1 zucchini
1 bell pepper
1onion
1pack sliced mushrooms
1 1/2 cups frozen peas
1tbsp Cajun seasoning
Minced garlic
2 lbs ground meat
Salt and peppet
1/2 tbsp onion powder
1/2 tbsp garlic powder
2+ cups of coconut milk (about 1.5 cans)
3tbsp corn starch
Grated cheese
Frozen hash browns or tater tots

Directions

1. Sautee veggies and Cajun seasoning in olive oil around 10 minutes until just soft. Add garlic for last minute. Move veggies to bowl.

2. Sautee ground meat in more oil. While sautéing, season with salt, black pepper, onion and garlic powder. Preheat oven to 400 deg.

3. When meat is brown, pull pan off heat and add back veggies. Take same bowl and whisk coconut milk and cornstarch well. Pour over meat and veggies and put over medium heat. It should start to thicken. Let it cook for a few minutes, stirring frequently, so it doesn't stick.

4. Grease casserole dish. Pour meat/veggie mixture in. Add Grated cheese on top (if desired) and then put hash browns or tater tots on top. Put in oven and back until bubbly, about 30-40 minutes. Let it stand for 10 minutes before serving.

Note: I've used coconut milk because we've had a no dairy thing going for a while in our house. The cheese isn't used in that situation. All that to say, you could substitute a simple white bechamel for the coconut milk/corn starch mixture. Heat 4 Tbsp of butter and whisk with 4 tbsp flour, let it cook, stirring periodically. Add a cup or more of milk and whisk, it will begin to thicken. When to consistency you want, remove from heat and add some shredded cheese (1/2-1 cup). This will thicken it more.

Another note : any veggies will work. This is just a good template. Mushrooms are a favorite, so I add a lot of those.

Thanks for taking the time to post that recipe, TimberRunner!

Fifteen bean soup with hickory smoked pork sausage.

I always found 15 beans to be a little bourgeois.

14 bean is plenty.

It's what came in the bag. The last time it was ten. I guess I was slumming it on that one.

I have a bag of that at home.

Have not tried it yet.

Good ole Ham Beens.

I used the HamBeens Cajun bag as a base. I wouldn't really call it Cajun, but it's a nice start. I used five garlic cloves instead of one or two. A good number of grinds of black pepper and a heavy splash of Louisiana sauce perked it up nicely.

I like that they didn't overdo the salt in their seasoning packet.

I also modify the method by cooking lid off, adding back liquid as I see fit.

Like that you know to use reds instead of russets in soups and stews

👍🏼

Originally Posted by rcamuglia

Yep, almost always, the exception being potato soup, where I want the starchy russets so they start to break down and thicken things. In that case I cut some larger in order to still have chunks. These were red "fingerlings" that were 2-3" long, and sort of pink in the middle with a darker red starburst at the center. What I had, and they needed to be used.

More traditional New Mexican goodness to come. The pork came from a 7.5 lb. Boston butt that I boned, trimmed, and chunked, so there was plenty of meat left.

Got a pot of pork broth and scraps to supplement the dog's food too. Those things are magic, whether roasted, smoked, or cooked all night in the crock pot.

So, last night, Deb was at an art class, so it was just the dogs & I.

Since the dogs ate 2 of Deb's prize house plants, they weren't invited to dinner.

Maybe it was the 3 stiff Rye & cokes, but I was slow moving.

Got to thinking about Steve's bologna thread upstairs.

Hmm, no bologna (never have any).

This is the base for an oil and garlic sauce. I hit it with chicken stock instead of pasta water.

That DU poster begs the question, are you a duck hunter Jim?

Geeze...I wish.

No..not a duck hunter. I just work with conservation groups to increase habitat.

We were at a Regenerative Ag conference and asked if we could have a poster. We were the only ones out of 1000 who asked!

Well, if you and the lads ever get the urge to give it a try send me a pm. I’ve got a couple of bags of deeks that I haven’t used in several years and they need someone to hunt over them again. I think there’s even a Mojo in the bunch.

Paul, those look exactly like an Asian recipe I found and have been using for several years called Japanese Mum's Chicken.

Prep Time: 5 mins
Total Time: 45 mins
4Servings

Ingredients:

8 chicken drumsticks, skin on (the skin is important for flavour, and is so tasty to eat!)
1 cup water
1/2 cup balsamic vinegar
1/3 cup soy sauce
2 1/2 tablespoons sugar
1 garlic clove, peeled and bruised
1 small hot chili pepper, slit open, seeds removed
Directions:

1 Place all the ingredients in a saucepan over a high heat.
2 Bring to the boil, then reduce to a simmer for about 20 minutes.
3 Remove any scum that rises to the surface.
4 Increase the heat, turning the drumsticks frequently in the sauce, and cook until the liquid has reduced to a sticky glaze.
5 Arrange the chicken on a serving platter, remove the garlic clove and chili from the liquid, and spoon the glaze over.
6 NOTE It's a glaze, rather than a sauce. Not a lot to it.

Jud, the green you see in the raw burger, is chopped spinach.

Deb uses it as a binder for these burgers, as Megan is allergic to egg.

However, there is also a bunch of red pepper flakes in there, so they do have a good "bite".

I'll see if I can get the ingredient list she uses.

Honestly, since doing them this way, wouldn't go back to egg & bread crumbs !

They are always juicy & flavourful.

Working from home today so I'm rustling up dinner with friends tonight.

Friday fish night.

Baked wild BC salmon, salmon candy, smoked coho, plus a shrimp wheel, parsley pesto pasta, Greek Salad, Caesar salad and pumpkin tarts for dessert.

Aaaand while prepping the Greek salad, I found out the English cucumber we had was bad. So, I ran out to the store to get another. We’d gone grocery shopping yesterday so didn’t need anything else, but I decided to grab a can of whipped cream as I’m not sure we’ll have enough.

As I’m walking to the cash register, I’m knowing exactly what this looks like. Sure enough, the young cashier cocks her head, smiles and says “That’s an interesting combination!”

Sunday night roasted a pork rib roast, for the family - exceptional !!

[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]

We were supposed to have pot roast last night, wifey around lunch put everything in crockpot, etc. Come suppertime, she figured out she had it on "warm" the whole time instead of low or high....we'll eat it tonight I guess.

I threw some chicken breasts on the blackstone with some olive oil and badia fajita seasoning. Chopped it up as it cooked, through it back in a pan on the stone with some taco seasoning and salsa, once that soaked in and got some of those standup taco shells, filled them with chicken, put some mexican shredded cheese on top, and let them cook in oven for about 5 minutes or so to melt the cheese and heat the tacos shells. It was some kind of good.

Top shelf, please !

Venison neck barley soup.

Before anyone gets their chitt in a knot, this is a CWD-free area.

We trim the neck meat when we butcher but there’s always a lot left that can only be got by cooking. Use your favourite beef barley soup recipe in the pressure cooker, then just shred the meat off the bone when it’s done.

whitetail tenderloin at "high heat" haha. Tried one for the hell of it, my son liked it so well I just kept doing it till he was full. Dusted it with Johnny's and held in front of the forge. Damn that was good stuff.

Cross rib roast braised in beef stock with onion, garlic, and Serrano chiles, ranchero beans. Chicken in a pot is for . . . whatever.

Ham and potato soup.

Slavyanka asked how I made it so fast. I put the leftover ham bone in the Instant pot with 1 litre of chicken soup stock, then set it to pressure cook for an hour. Meanwhile, we went grocery shopping.

When I got back, I pulled the ham out of the broth, reheated the stock in the IP while I peeled the potatoes and bunged it all in. Meanwhile, I chopped my celery, carrots and onion and had it sauteing while I shredded the ham. When the veggies were done I stirred in flour for roux, then tossed it all into the potatoes and broth to finish.

And, damn, it tastes good!! Cook time (aside from Instant Pot) - less than 1/2 hour

Thanks, Paul.

An Austrian friend on another site shared their version of crispy pork, whether belly or other cuts. They boil the skin in chicken stock before finally roasting it.

You can leave off the caraway seeds (I will. It’s the one flavour I absolutely cannot stand.)

This is how you do leftovers.

After 3 meals of pork belly I wanted something different. So I diced it up fine and put it on the stove to render and crisp up more. After removing to drain on a paper towel and draining the pan, in went some coarsely chopped mushrooms and garlic.

Didn’t have any cream cheese so added a cup of milk and two dollops of sour cream along with the rendered pork (with a few pieces kept in reserve for garnish). A couple handfuls of shredded cheese and some parmesan, and served over some rice noodles that Slavyanka refused to use (she’s working tonight).

I give you Roast Pork Belly Carbonara!!

As I understand it, not Rick but built into the board's software.

Anyway, I'm trying to figure out what got bleeped!

The only candidates I can presently think of are "Pasta e f a g i o l i " and "Pasta alla p u t t a n e s c a" (pasta in the style of the whores)

Let's see if these spaces allow these terrible words make it past the censor software!

A few years ago I posted (in perfectly correct, non-racist Queen's English) the word "n i g g a r d l y" - a word whose etymology stretches back to Middle English: nigard, nygard (=“miser”) and nothing to do with black folk. BLEEPED that too!

I hope that you and Deb are doing well my friend!

Your wife’s oriental preparations are amazing. Can you post the recipe for this as well as others when you do it?

Hi Rick, all oriental inspired dishes, are mine.

Deb is an amazing cook, but tends towards homestyle, generational stuff. Sauces, pasta, stroganoff/goulash, scratch made deer burger helper, soups, stews & side dishes. Her Caesar dressing is off the charts.

When I post something she's made, I normally acknowledge it, in the description.

That said, we are always both in the kitchen, enjoying a wine & helping each other.

Most of my recipes come from online, these days, where I once relied on a collection of cookbooks & magazines.

Deb has handed down, hand written recipes from grand parents, parents, friends. Tried & true, even if she has tweaked some to suit us better.

For Asian cuisine, I rely heavily of this Australian cook;

If you watch her youtube videos, her voice will drive you nuts, but she has an outstanding repertoire

Took Slavyanka on an excursion to Toronto today. Went to the Eastern European market and bought a bunch of stuff. Then took her to a Georgian (as in country) restaurant.

Slavyanka had Kharcho soup, while I had Solianka soup (absolutely divine). I have to look up the recipe as it seems fairly simple - but tasty And it’s a hangover remedy. Then we shared some Khinkali and Lula Kabob with Sulguni. Was so good we’re planning to take SS17 there for his birthday in a couple weeks.

Added medium shrimp cut in half with some salt and pepper. Roasted and peeled chiles, stuffed mix shrimp mixture then topped with monterey jack. Chipotle crema on top. DAMN GOOD!

I love asparagus. I cured and smoked some bacon for the first time last week and unfortunately it ended up being too salty to eat by itself, so adding it to other dishes is a great way to use it.

How do you do it?

Boil macaroni in salted water to desired level of tenderness. Drain. Pour in enough canned tomatoes / tomato juice (whatever you have on hand) to get to your desired level of "soupiness" for lack of a better word. Personally I dont like it very soupy. Simmer for a few minutes to get the tomatoes hot.

Serve with cornbread and season to taste with black pepper and more salt if needed. Like a lot of soups and stews, it's better on the second day.

For example, if I am making enough for several meals, I boil one box of elbow macaroni from the store, and add about 3/4 of a quart of tomato juice (or a whole quart of home-canned tomatoes).

It's a dead simple meal that will warm you up on a cold day, give you a shìtload of carbs, and costs pennies per serving.

Loose recipe ingredients;

INGREDIENTS
To make this easy roasted butternut squash soup, you will need to gather the following simple ingredients (full measurements in recipe card below):

butternut squash
carrots - adds natural sweetness.
celery
onion
garlic - for the best and most potent flavor, use real cloves garlic. You can also substitute with 2 tablespoons garlic powder for a similar taste.
fresh herbs - sage, thyme, and rosemary. I used fresh herbs, but you can substitute with dry herbs. I would use half the amount if using dry herbs. (You can use 1 teaspoon dried sage, 1 teaspoon dried thyme and ½ teaspoon dried rosemary).
cayenne red pepper powder - you can leave out cayenne pepper if you don't want it with a kick.
salt and pepper
olive oil
Full cream or 14% organic sour cream
vegetable stock - use vegetable broth to keep the soup vegan or use chicken stock if you don't have a dietary preference.

Minestrone soup and kings Hawaiian sliders.

Turkey sandwich, and leftover macaroni

Broiled Sicilian Lemon Chicken with Spaghetti alla A’matriciana, wilted Green Chard

Fried flounder and tater tots, got a crock pot of dried lima beans and smoked sausage soaking in thr fridge for tomorrow night

Thanks for the compliments… I don’t have a specific recipe i use. The last few things I’ve made I’ve regretted not writing down the recipe I ended up with. I should start.

I used 2 boneless pork shoulders, trimmed a little fat from them and cubed them up. Cover with water and simmered with some garlic cloves, oregano and bay leaves. Constantly skimming the foam from the top. After about an hour I take some of the liquid and reconstitute some seeded/dried chiles (guajilo/acho). Add some garlic and onion and blend it into the paste you see in the picture. Mix it up and give it a try.

I prefer a strong broth so i add more chilies than most. Let simmer. Add as much hominy as you like- I find hominy is a love/hate thing. I love it. Simmer until the meat is tender.

Cabbage, cilantro, onion, lemon, oregano, red pepper flake added to your bowl when serving. Served with some tortillas too- I’m partial to flour.

I’d suggest following an online recipe for the first time, then adjust as per your particular taste. Good luck and if you give it a go- let us know how it turned out.

He means soaking the seeded/dried chiles in the hot liquid broth he took from the pot, prior to blending.

Tip for soaking dried chilies and not meant as a knock to robham.

Soak dried chilies in hot water, filtered if tap taste is questionable, chlorinated, etc.

Then taste the water before using for blending. Many times it will be bitter. If it is then use your pork stock for blending or a combo if the soak water tastes ok.

Strain chilies through fine sieve before using.

You can add another depth of flavor if you slightly roast the dried chilies before soaking.

I’m offended…

Fats is correct. It’s best practice to strain the blended peppers as sometimes they can be bitter. I think it’s the skin that’s bitter. And the sieve will filter the skin out.

Grilled chicken and shrooms.

Wife cooked up a bunch of chicken breasts the other day so they wouldn't go bad. We had some leftover chipotles in adobo from some chili she made last week. I had purchased some wonderful corn tortillas at the Mexican market a week ago and wanted to use them up before they went bad. Got to thinking? Hmmm, enchiladas?

made some very non traditional chicken enchiladas tonight. Used the mini food processor to grind up the chipotles, a canned green chile, some spices, some broth left over from the cooked chicken and whipped up some enchilada sauce. Cut up some chicken breast, some baby bell peppers, some Kalamata olives, some green chiles, and some onion and sauteed it all. Decided it was too much work to individually moisten and roll tortillas, so I did the enchiladas "pie style" with some Skellig Irish cheddar inside and some good farmers cheese on top:

Phenomenal...

Last night's dinner for my two sons and I was elk round steak, 2 hours in the souse vide at 131 degrees. In the bags with the steaks was garlic, black pepper, a dash of salt and butter. Then out of the souse vide and onto a hot cast iron skillet for a couple of minutes to finish them.

Added red potatoes and broccoli as well. Simple, and very good meal. I like the way the sous vide treats the steaks & roasts. Cooks them all the way through - medium rare in this case - without drying them at all.

Back to fish or chicken tonight, but the elk steaks were excellent!

I'll take a plate, please Phil !

Great looking meals. Leftovers all week here.

Cascade has me thinking it's been a while since I've sous vide a game roast. Might change that in the next few days.

Yes I’ve had it a few times, but don’t have much to compare it to, although both times I’ve been to NOLA, the boudin I had while there wasn’t as good as the stuff that was shipped out here from Bourques. My old boss is from LA, and would place an order and include me in on it. He swears it’s the best made….

Yeah, you need to get west of NOLA to get the good boudin. Think along the lines of Lafayette, Scott, Milton, Maurice, Eunice, Ville Platte.

We were supposed to host Orthodox Easter dinner last night but our friends invited 5 more guests so we trucked it all to their bigger place.

I was running on 2 hours sleep as I'd gotten home from midnight mass at 4:30 am then got up at 6:30 to run a table at a gun show.

Did rack of lamb, leg of lamb, Caesar and Slavyanka made Pashka (Easter bread) and a chicken and pineapple salad. My friend's wife did beef shashlik, Olivier salad, brined herring, Shuba, Holodiets and all kinds of hors d'oeuvres.

The rack of lamb was spectacular. First time doing it and it will go into the rotation at home as a rack is the perfect size for three hungry people.

Sorry if the presentation isn't fancy.

I got a bunch of them, from a local farm, in the freezer.

I had a strip steak seared on cast iron with a side of green beans smothered with bacon and onions. Even so, the pics of those crawfish cakes and remoulade make me hungry again.

No recipe. Diced Scallions, green pepper, celery, garlic, juice of 1/2 lemon, a dollop of mayo, some cajun seasoning, salt, pepper, 2 or 3 eggs, crawfish tail meat and start adding breadcrumbs until you get the consistency to hold together. After cakes were made I put them in the fridge for about 20 mins and they binded up even more. Sprinkled some blackened seasoning on them and sautéed, about 5 min a side in a mix of butter and olive oil. Easy weeknight meal.

Buddy of mine had a steer butchered and asked me if I wanted the neckbones. Heck Yea I 'll try them. My wife got them out and seasoned and floured them. Browned in olive oil in a cast iron dutch oven. Cooked down some onions and garlic. Deglazed the pot with red wine. Put the onions and meat back in the pot covered with beef stock. Simmered 4 hours. Man was it good. Tender and rich tasting. Nice thick brown gravy.

Believe it or not we have them in our lake, not many because I have not seen them in the lake myself. I only know this because one day a seagull was flying over my house and dropped it on my patio. When I went to look at what it dropped, it was a dead Crayfish. It may have survived if it had a parachute lol

We do have crayfish in Canada, but I do not think we have them (the numbers) as you do in Louisiana. I have seen them in creeks and rivers while turning over rocks. I have even used imitation crawfish lures while fishing for Large and Smallmouth Bass.

Thanks, Paul. It looked so good I broke my Carnivore diet to have a piece. It didn't disappoint.

SD24 is a picky eater and just recently converted back to eating meat from vegetarian (she finally decided her health is more important than virtue signaling). She had two big pieces, plus a chicken breast. I've never seen her eat so much, ever!

I cannot get my wife to understand this concept. Why heat the inside of a house we are trying to cool on a 90°+ day??

New house I am having a gas line stubbed up on the front porch. Will be able to run whatever outdoors cooking equipment I want and not have to get bottles filled.

Probably start with a griddle of some sort and a deep fryer hooked up most of the time.

Maybe farther down the road an outdoor gas cook stove.

Paul, is there a good takeout pizza place in Dryden?

Spicy red pepper feta dip, hummus, what was supposed to be a kofta kabob but ended up a kofta patty in the cast iron, basmati rice, roasted chickpeas for texture, kalamata olives, cukes, midget tomatoes, and roasted parmesan and asiago artichokes and mushrooms.

I had to search this to see if you were joking or not.

You weren't.

And for some reason...

...It looks good!

You can flavor any grains with whatever juice you like, for instance I never cook my rice in water, there are many different ways to go, tomato juice, apple juice, chicken or beef broth, the skies the limit.

Water is the ENEMY, especially if you like food with lots of flavor.

Gonna do a small rant here. Why do grocery stores cut their steaks so thin? If I want more than 1/2” I have to pay premium price.

They put steaks on special cut too thin and then you have to either eat them raw or they’re overdone.

Maybe that’s what I’ll do next time. Just make steak tartar.

My guess is the $ will scare most women shoppers off. They would rather get their nails done and new clothes.

If buying local, I wait until they have ribeye on sale and buy the entire chunk of meat. Stores here will cut and wrap it for free. I tell them to cut at least 1 1/4" thick.
Better yet I drive 20 miles to a locker and get my meat there. Sam's and Costco normally have some nice looking steaks. Also have prime graded meat instead of choice, if you don't mind spending the extra $.

I didn't post this yesterday. Got this idea from meatchurch. Smoked salsa. Smoked 12 tomatoes, 5 jalapeños, 1 onion and a head of bisected garlic (in foil) for a few hours. My smoker got up to 250 so, mine was close to 1.5 hrs. Squeeze garlic cloves out and blend all of above with one bunch of cilantro, juice from 1/2 lime and 3 tbsp salt. Can't stop eating it. Kinda spicy but very palatable.

Tonight's supper was fresh out of the garden. Green peas with red potatoes and cabbage made into slaw. Wish I could say the grilled pork chops were home grown, but they came from the grocery. My garden is really good this year, and we've had beets and broccoli as well as the cabbage, peas and potatoes. Squash, cucumbers and green beans are almost in. Sorry, no pics.

Ribeye seasoned simply with kosher salt, grilled and finished with a pat of butter. The side was fried razor clams

Sicilian Lemon Chicken (Rao’s Manhattan), Spaghetti Al’Amatriciana, Broccoli Rabe

Had a great night out with some fine people. Not the usual business dinner cattle call.

Fried crab claws and a nice steak. Oh, and a fine martini.

Lunchables in the field.

A pretty good dish of meat loaf, mashed potatoes and gravy here at the hotel restaurant in Ogden. Unfortunately the veggies were carrots and I hate cooked carrots. They did mix a good martini.

Broke as hell so I had boiled water and salt..

Local lamb loin chops & Deb made a great greek salad !

Fat is flavour.

The fat from our barley finished lamb and mutton is superb....but yeah... not cold!

Olive oil with some garlic powder, onion powder, lemon pepper, baste on the fish. Air fry at 400 for 5 minutes in the basket (longer for thicker pieces of fish).

Liking the lamb loin chops.had some last week myself. Good call.

We love those bone in pork rib roasts !!!!

Haven't seen any, here in the last few months.

Great for a family roast dinner !

Thank you !!

Always looking for new tricks to try, as fish is an abundant protein for us.

I can not understand, why so many north Americans, have an aversion to lamb ?!?!

It doesn't make any sense.

No one living today has ever been exposed to the old cull ewe or buck that was fed to the help.

Most Americans don't like the taste of meat...honestly. Lamb is too flavorful!

Today's pork is flavorless....chicken too.

Plus....no one...besides a handful of us know how to cook it.

It's greasy, gamey and dried out.

Ahmmm, My meat, (any kind) is never dried out !!!!!!!!!!!!

But, you knew that already !

It's a good question.

They'd really hate my.lamb liver.pate.

Leg of Lamb is amazing, what most people don't do is take out the gland in the leg, which produces the Lamb Odor. Because I do this my legs have no odor while cooking.

I debone my legs, take out the gland, and butterfly it. Then I marinade it for 24 hours with a wet rub I make with olive oil, tons of garlic, old-fashioned grainy mustard, lots of cumin, and rosemary, then I BBQ it. I also insert garlic slivers into the meat as well.

I serve it with my Caesar salad, and roasted potatoes with Mint Sauce.

AMAZING every time and everyone loves my lamb.

You are correct, my lamb does not taste like regular Lamb, my Lamb tastes like High-End Haute Cuisine, Gourmet Lamb.

And that's the way I like it, medium rare with a Martini, Shaken, not Stirred of course followed with a Dry Red Wine lol

If you like I will make it next week and post pictures, a better Leg of Lamb you have never had.

I loved that show.

Grandma had cable. I would stay with her in town and get to watch TV.

Dropped the kid off at swim practice and took the woman to a local watering hole for their Friday surf and turf special..

Conveniently cut out the grape sauce I see.

Yup, grandparents had cable years before we ever got it. I lived in town so I'd just bike the several miles over to watch it.

If you do it I'd be interested to see it. Lamb here costs a decent enough amount that I never buy it.

Sure thing I will make it next week. The price of Lamb in Canada has gone up dramatically. Before Covid $$15.00 to 17.00 for a small Australian Leg of Lamb, now $45.00.

Thanks for posting that. Coincidentally, I have 2 shoulders on the “smoker” at this moment.

Next time I’ll use their tip and cut it up smaller to reduce the cooking time. I was up early to get them started

I learned something new today, so thanks Conrad!

In the future I will not put cheese into my Shrimp and Cheesy Grits or add white wine to my sauce, nor will I season my shrimp, might ruin the entire dish because I will not be able to taste the shrimp and heaven forbid if I can not taste the corn.

I will no longer put beer or red wine into my stews, would not want to add any extra flavor to the stew, any extra flavor would make the beef, deer, moose, or elk meat unrecognizable.

I will not put Grand Marnier into my Chocolate Mousse, might make the chocolate flavor unrecognizable, hell I won't even add Limoncello into my Strawberry Mousse, would not want it to highlight the strawberries with lemon liqueur.

I won't even put flour in my famous Banana bread that would dull the banana flavor, nor will I add Cranberries to my Banana Bread, that would be sacrilegious.

I can see how your cooking concepts and techniques will improve my cooking skills. Thanks, bud, I was on the wrong path all along and didn't even realize it.

HaHaHaHa

Keep on pretending.

You are bad at this.

You are an absolute shìt cook if you need to put all that extra shìt on a leg of lamb.

As a guest on an American site, I would like to be considerate enough to give you two options, so which name would you prefer?

Option 1: Blubber Boy or

You pick, being a man of my word I will only address you with the option you chose.

Yes I have, two actually, both owned by my father.

A Colt Python 357 Magnum with a 6" barrel and a Colt M1911.

I preferred shooting the Python, lots of fun to shoot.

Hi 805,

It's pretty darn good, I will post the recipe for you tomorrow, I developed the recipe myself. The Cranberries give it an extra zing. Here is what it looks like inside.

Got a recipe?

Here you go 805, developed by me personally. Best Banana bread I have ever had all my guests love it.

6 to 7 Over Ripe Bananas the riper the better
3 Cups All Purpose Flour
2 Cups Refined White Sugar
2 Pinches Salt
2 Big Tsp High-Quality Baking Soda, I use Bob’s Red Mill Baking Soda
2 Beaten Eggs
2 Tsp Vanilla
2/3 Cup Unsalted Melted Butter
1 Cup Rough Chopped Pecans
2 Cups Frozen Cranberries

Preheat your Oven to 350

In a bowl break up the bananas with a potato masher break up the Bananas then mix in sugar, beaten eggs, salt, butter, baking soda, and vanilla, and mix very well.

Add in ½ of the flour and mix in well, then add the next ½ of the flour and incorporate loosely then add the Pecans and frozen Cranberries and mix until well incorporated.

Using 2 (9.25 x 5.25 x 2.75 inches) heavily greased with unsalted butter Bread Pans divide the mixture equally, I use a scale and measure in grams. I know the weight of my mixing bowl and weigh it after everything is mixed to know the total weight of the ingredients. This is important because you want them to cook at the exact same time.

Cook for 60 minutes then check with a chopstick for doneness, if very wet cook for another 10 minutes and check again, do not let it overcook so it won’t be dry, you want to be very moist. Every oven is different. The batch I made on Saturday took 1:20 min to cook because I used 7 large Bananas.

Tips: When cooking your loaves check them in 30 minutes as soon as you get the desired color on top of your loaves cover them with Aluminum Foil otherwise the tops will get too dark. Also, after you pour the mixture into your pans, press any Cranberries that are sticking out of the mixture into the mixture, so you do not see them, they tend to burn if exposed. Do not use fresh Cranberries, frozen works 10x's better!

When you take them out of the oven let them rest for 15 minutes, then flip the pans and shake until the loaf falls out and rest on a wire rack. If you do not use heavily greased pans, they will be hard to get out.

Enjoy

I bought all of the kit yesterday and my son just nailed the meal. His "trick" (I have seen on the cooking channels) is to fry one breast at a time to keep the pan hot then throw it in the oven to keep warm. Crispy yet tender.

Personally, I stay away from paste, because they just don't use fillets in making anchovies Paste, they use the entire fish, including eyes and innards, I have been told.

I use them for my Caesars which I make by hand mashing the fillets with a fork on a wood board by hand, which is the traditional way.

The funny thing about Caesars, everyone thinks the recipe was developed in Italy, it was actually developed in a Mexican restaurant.

Take the green beans out and it would make the How to make breakfast thread. With the green beans it’s what’s for dinner “chicken fried steak!” [Linked Image from i.imgur.com]

Since they cook so quickly, I cooked them in the marinade & it tightened up perfectly.

Marinade was honey, evoo, 2 chipotles & some adobo sauce, salt & cracked pepper.

No reverse sear. Just direct grill until internal 125 deg or so.

Missed it as well, exceptional TimberRunner!

Also, great job on the shrimp and scallops Paul, excellent, as usual!

After I saw your first post on your new pizza oven, I watched a YouTube video about them because I was thinking of buying one, and a common issue that was mentioned was the heat transfer from the back, with a low profile that burns the crust. Is there a way to fix that issue?

Nonetheless great pizzas sir!

Mallards or gadwall (gray ducks). Cream cheese, a little cheddar and some generic bbq seasoning.

Grilled shashlik for Slavyanka’s birthday today. For some reason, pork neck meat makes the best kebabs. So tasty.

Managed to find top sirloin cap (Picanya) at the grocery store, so tried it for the first time. Tasty and good, but will wait for it to go on sale next time. It’s the one third from the bottom.

Hi Paul, this is the recipe I use for my Pizza dough, it's great. I make thin-crust pizzas as I prefer more toppings than bread. I also make my own sausage from scratch. You may enjoy this pizza dough, easy enough to make.

In Mixer Stand Add

2 1/2 Cups APF
2 Tsp Fine White Sugar
1 1/2 Tsp Instant Yeast

Mix together ¾ Cup + 2 TBS ICE COLD WATER with 2 Tbs EVOO, then with the mixer on medium-low speed add water slowly into flour. Mix slowly until the dough comes together, about 1 minute.

Grease the countertop and knead with a few palm folds, then roll into a ball and place in greased glass bowl cover with plastic wrap and rest for 2 ½ hours.

When risen split ball in ½. With cut side down on a floured board work with fingers until 8” diameter, then with floured pin roll out to 2 x 12” pies. You can use more than half to make a bigger pie, I typically make 14” pies.

Cheers

Thanks Darren,

I can’t imagine 1 T of sugar is making your crust burn.

What temp are you cooking?

Also,

You will see a vast improvement in your crusts if you make the dough and then refrigerate it to retard the yeast growth for 3 days.

Pull it out, let it proof, roll it make a pizza and bake

So had to make my own supper... l roasted a cheap beef roast about 2 hours and 7 minutes. From that you can guess how heavy it was . Mashed potatoes/ cheese and marj ; gravy made of the potato water and turnip water , good dose of salt and some old dried up French bread to devour the plates of second helpings. This time I carefully ate the roast ,Billy the kid style, watching my back but cutting thick slices . Well worth the effort. Now looking forward to a beautiful sink full of dishes and dads cookies if the dog will let me.

I figured that Paul, it's not you, it's the Pizza System you are using, guaranteed! Although a neat concept, they have inherent flaws that burn the crust, which is why I did not buy one.

Nice to know that someone else besides me knows what Canary means. I find that pizzas are best done Canary, for Pizza perfection and I know that like me that is what you strive for.

Did you reduce the limoncello or just pour it on straight?

I ask because I've never had a limoncello that didn't taste faintly like alcohol.

First I reduced the Sauvignon Blanc then with a little cooking time left, I added a little hit of the Limoncello for a little lemon flavor boost, everyone loved it.

I was too busy eating the stupid thing for pictures.

It worked out to be two, three ounce patties on the flattop. Smashed really thin.

I think they only took two minutes a side to cook. Just kosher for season.

American cheese on both.

Of course the beef was ours....so muy excellent.

Dry toasted buns, mayo top bun and bottom.

Then it's just assembly time. Bottom patty gets sweet relish and yellow mustard. Top patty gets ketchup and hamburger dill chips.

Bagged shredded iceberg on top of that.

You can't shred your own and have it taste right.

Flave knows about them.

It probably doesn't matter the order...just as long as it has all those things.

Rod's would be proud Big Jim.

Was just following the instructions, that came with the Rockboxx.

850F is for Neapolitan style pizzas, which uses unmalted flour. I suggest you try your same dough at a temp of 550-650. Or, if you desire the high heat cooking, order up some 00 Italian flour or find an unmalted AP flour (usually organic is unmalted) to try. In that dough, you would just want flour, water, salt and yeast. Skip the sugar and oil for high heat Neapolitan.

Good luck, its an addicting rabbit hole!

That’s what it’s supposed to look like. Chop it more finely next time. I disagree with the suggestion that balsamic vinegar shouldn’t be used.

Try this one but use fresh oregano.

Balsamic vinegars vary in quality and price. Buy the most expensive, aged balsamic you can afford. You won’t be sorry

Gawd, you fugging clam.

No wonder the men on Alberta Sportsmen couldn't stand your feminine ass.

Go bleed on someone else.

Keep following me around. I will keep pointing out your estrogen laden tendencies.

You were obviously better suited to French Canada.

I am following you are around, that's rich, you start all of this. Give it up and you will never see me comment another negative post against you.

My good advice to you is to start fasting, your children need you. Get a positive outlook, you will only have one when you look in the mirror and are proud of yourself.

Just trying to be helpful man, so grow up!

Cheers

Just like a fùcking broad.....

Gotta get the last feminine word in don't ya?

Listen you fat azzhole, I consider you to be an internet Bully, I know your type and have handled them quickly.

Again I offer a truce with everyone here to witness it.

Stop following me like the heavy-handed bully you have been from the start, and stop disparaging me. You have my word that if you do I will never make a negative comment about you again, you have my word, and I am a man of honor.

If you persist and do not accept my truce, I will be merciless, you sir have not seen anything yet.

I prefer to get along with people, but I will not be walked over by anyone, I am fearless and you do not scare me.

Your choice Conrad.

You are the woman in the relationship aren't you?

Whatta fugging clam. Keep threatening.

Now....fùck off.

Must be embarrassing hey Blubber Boy? I am sure you insist that the lights are off to spare a woman of the indignity of doing it with you lol

Hey LARD ASS here is a picture of me scoring a touchdown while playing Middle Linebacker after making an interception and winning the game for my school. The picture was taken by a pretty cheerleader, that was in the back seat of my car that night. The other pictures is of me #70 in a movie I was in, the actor in front of me is Robert Forrester. Ever been in a movie Lard Ass?

While I was being a stud, I'll bet you were in mommies basement playing Nintendo and porn surfing while consuming massive quantities of chips and ice cream by the gallon. Which is why you are the fat slob you currently are. lol

We caught some silvers yesterday and made some salmon sandwiches. Some blackening seasoning on the grilled fish and a killer herb mayo momma whipped up. Cold IPA to wash it down.

We usually make patties with the fish we've frozen, but this is where it's at with fresh! Nice flavor change from regular tartar sauce as well. Bet it would be good on a chicken or turkey sammich!

FINALLY, thank you, I wanted to move on months ago when you started this!

Honestly wishing you all the best, in fact, to extend an olive branch. If decide to lose weight, as I did by Intermittent Fasting, I will be happy to assist and share the knowledge I have learned.

I expect this will be the last of it.

Have a great weekend Jim.

Oh for fùck sakes......

Edited.....that's good enough.

Later guy.

Lots of ideas gleaned from this thread. Tonight was marinated London Broil (not new to me), BBQ husk on corn on the cob Mexican street style (new to me, forgot the crumbley cheese and had it in the frig.), and leftover rice. Two things to cook is about my limit, thus the leftover rice. Outdoor temp in the shade getting closer to temp I pulled the meat at. [Linked Image from i.imgur.com]

Looks mighty good, Farming. I believe I could get on the outside of that very quickly.

L.W.

London broil is a sure trip to my childhood.

Very nostalgic. I love it.

I gotta say thanks to the Montana ranchers for tonight's dinner...grilled tri tip (can't forget a shout out to Fats, who I think is one of the kings of the tri tip faithful). Thanks, Mr. Jim and Mr. Sam for raising cattle here. I know it ain't making you rich but I can't think of folks who make our lives so worth living.

Edit to add that I prolly didn't let it rest long enough after I saw how much juice was in the last pic, but I was starving and it still turned out really good.

Dang. Enjoy Remsen.

Sweet corn...I put extra virgin olive oil and salt with the corn in the foil and set it off the coals so its ready when the meat is done.

Mr. Jim, that dish brings back some good, albeit misplaced, memories. When I was a kid my parents were very lax with the religious dietary restrictions. No pork in the house but pretty much everything else was a wink and a nod, especially shellfish. My dad claimed it was because we lived next to the ocean, so we could eat things like crab, shrimp and clams. My favorite dish of all time was linguini with clam sauce, and that dish of pasta made me think about linguini with clams. If I could eat shellfish again, it would be the first dish I made and it would look like your picture, only with clams. Maybe it's because today was a fast day but dang, that looks good.

tablespoons light brown sugar
1
tablespoon ancho chile powder
1
tablespoon paprika
2
teaspoons kosher salt
2
teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
1
teaspoon cayenne pepper
1
teaspoon granulated garlic
1
teaspoon English mustard powder
½
teaspoon ground coriander
½
teaspoon ground cumin

Sometimes I’ll try to cook something upscale that challenges me. Other times I just want to cook something simple that I eat all the time like a pot of chicken & sausage jambalaya. Time to break out the Tabasco! 🌶️

Garlic Shrimp with angel hair pasta.

NOT pretty enough to photograph, but great eatin!

Leftover chile verde.

Q: Is that cheese on there?????
A: You betcha.

Q:is that rice?????
A: yeah, it is. I eat chile verde over rice, the rice is not cooked with it. Fuçk off.

Q: what's that pink thing?
A: it keeps my nuts warm, keeps them from burning from the hot stoneware.

Will you share the recipe?

Also interested in the recipe as it looks more red than green

Sure thing fellers. It's the lighting that adds the red, my pictures suuuuuuuuck typically too.

I have altered the typical recipe because of the volume I did this weekend, so I will give just ingredients, and will follow up with a standard recipe when I dig it out.

-cubed pork shoulder

-white onions

-garlic powder

-green chile powder

-garlic powder

-mexican oregano (dried vs fresh volume matters)

-celery salt

-cumin

-smoked paprika

-light pork stock cut with chicken stock ( I make my own pork stock and chicken stock so because I was cooking for around 25 folks, I was really playing with the ratio of stock)

-green enchilada sauce (I make and can my own, hence why I don't have any standalone tomatillos in this recipe)

-BEER! (In this instance, I used a sixer and a half of Shiner Bock, but again, it was for 25ish folks. Standard recipe would call for one beer)

-Hatch green chile. I strain mine for just a few minutes, no pressing, I just want the thins to run off before adding)

-Jalapenos. Dice them small for the cook, but add some fresh shortly before serving.

Serve alone, or with red potatoes or rice. Radish, cilantro, avocado, and others as a garnish. Fresh tortillas are a given. I do not use fresh garlic for this recipe.

The red effect may also be a byproduct of the microwave reheat lol.

You all are some high rollers....

I threw a caribou round steak in the skillet and called it a high class night...

Green beans tonight. We had a get together planned with neighbors with them grilling and the rest of us bringing a side. My wife made green beans with onion and bacon in a slightly chicken broth'd base. The host has been suffering a sore hip, replacement imminent IMO, so it was cancelled. So dinner was a bowl of tasty green beans.

Friday night was with Caroline & Ross, who were camping at Blue Lake Provincial park;

Excellent. We have 3 big bushes of basil and she bought a basket of peaches (our tree isn’t ready yet). I’ll grab some prosciutto tomorrow and make up a fancy dinner for her and SD24 before they head Europe Friday.

SD24 is going to Romania for abdominal surgery at a private clinic that she’d have to wait 3 years for under our “free” health care system

BBQ’d two whole chickens a couple of nights ago. Reinvented tonight as chicken salad sandwich! [Linked Image from i.imgur.com]

Nice!

I made a pot of sauce a week ago. We have our son, DIL and a buddy of his coming in a couple of weeks. She made a large tray of lasagna for when the arrive and two little "tubs" for us. One is in the oven as I type.

Had a plate of North Carolina bbq..

Excellent, Boots !

Loving the ratios there, including the pepper !

Spinach, ricotta cannelloni, disappointed by how much my garlic Alfredo sauce thickened in the oven, but they tasted great !!

Right around 40 pleased guests. Easy to do, just go to Costco, buy a 50 pound pig, 6 bags of charcoal briquettes, light the briquettes, put the pig on the skewer, put the skewer over the coals, then tend the coals and the pig for 7 1/2 hours…

The whole grill can be bought off the internet. The motor, like everything else on the grill, is as cheap as they can make it. The motor was getting hot while grilling, so we put a small fan in it and it was fine. It handled the whole 7 1/2 hours with no problem.

You will pay as much to rent one of these, as this one cost. If you get a few grillings out of it, you will easily pay for it…

Some yard pimps.

Dude, you sure put a hurt on those walleye. I'm surprised you don't have a slip so you don't have to keep pulling the boat in and out. Or do you go to different lakes?

Haha Marty !

Mostly same lake, but it's only 4 minutes from my driveway, to the public launch !

I'm extremely jealous of your walleye fishing opportunity. I can shoot a deer from my kitchen window, but I have to drive an hour and a half for decent walleye fishing. My 3YO boy has recently taken an interest to fishing so i"m gonna have to up my game for next year.

Darn right Fats.....Boudin and San Luis are two of the best breads around. And at the Costco price, it's always in the cart.

Acme is probably my favorite but it's harder to come by.

Any time I've tried sourdough elsewhere in the states it's a big letdown.

I never gave my brown plates a thought before, but after reading this thread, I now realize how ugly they are!

We've been eating garden tomato sandwiches with sweet onion slices and sometimes pepperoni--on toasted cracked wheat sourdough since it's been so hot. But it's cool and rainy today, so it's time for that other comfort food.

One of our favorite recipes I put in Slice of the Wild.

Attached picture blogrmeatballtest.jpg

Used up the last of the venison tenderloin. Fajita seasoning, smoked on the grill and just some basic (though not home made) accompaniments.

Righteous, Jim !!!!!

Looking good Rem !

You don’t dig on swine?

Other skilled is roasted Yukon golds, then smashed to break the skin. A little leftover bacon “juice” drizzled on top along with some salt/pepper/cheese, then broiled.

I can’t take food pics worth a schit, but tonight’s grub was anything but! Moose Lengua tacos with rice and beans. My wife wasn’t interested in being part of that experiment, so I made her some sockeye salmon larb (laab) with sticky rice on the side. Of course I loved both, but that’s probably why I can’t get under 200#s! Haha!

Dang!

That looks fine.

White as the driven snow! LOL! I do love Thai food though. My coworker made salmon laab a week or so ago and I thought it was great. Had to give it a go!

Never made laab.

I like this one butter chicken with a few minor tweaks. And definitely marinade overnight. Huge difference from just an hour or so. Also, smoked paprika over regular.

Early dinner, salami, pastrami, cheese, olives (my fatass ate them prior to the picture) , and Triscuts. Homemade pastrami and salami was done by a buddy of mine.

Forgive my ignorance but aren't tikka masala and butter chicken different?

Regardless, I will source ingredients and give your recommendation a try in the future.

You are correct, I should have elaborated more before posting that recipe. I should have said that there are some great crockpot recipes for Indian food, and one of mine is the recipe for butter chicken I posted.

Kind of a counterfeit chicken and dumplings.
It was pretty damn good.

I'll pass on the Triscuts, but would smash everything else !

Don't know what it is about them, but I just can't get to liking them.

Nothing better!

Apricot and shallot thighs. Arugula, fennel, radicchio salad w/lemon mint yogurt dressing.

Can we get the recipe for those thighs? Thanks!

S&P and brown thighs in dutch oven in EVOO, sauté alot $$$ of shallots in fond add enough of your favorite Lodi white Zin to come half way up thighs mix in couple gobs apricot preserves and chopped up dried apricots into wine. Sprinkle in chopped fresh sage leaves. Cover toss in 350 oven until done.
More Zin to deglaze and make thick sauce.

Seems like some bacon would go well in there

That was discussed but would over power the other flavors.

Either way I’m getting seconds as it stands

Pancetta is what you would want.

Is your Thanksgiving like our Thanksgiving?

Pretty much.

In the USA Thanksgiving its a Harvest feast, originating in 1621 harvest feast shared by the English colonists (Pilgrims) of Plymouth and the Wampanoag people.

Canadian Thanksgiving is actually the OG holiday, with the first reported instance of a Thanksgiving in North America in 1578, when Martin Frobisher and his crew celebrated safely landing in Nunavut.

The first meal was less glamorous than today’s feasts: mostly salt beef, biscuits, and mushy peas. Painting of the event on their ship below.

For me, it's always been about eating Turkey and having a day off work.

Disclosure, I found the above on GOOGLE, I actually had no idea what it was celebrating until I did lol.

Frittata is the easiest dish in the world to make.

Take whatever leftovers you have (really, anything), throw them in an oven-safe pan to heat up. Once heated, cover them with 3-4 beaten eggs. Toss it in the oven at 350F and cook till it sets.

Bingo, fancy frittata. There’s easier ways, but this makes it look fancy like above.

Got pluckin'. Seared some teal breasts, served with Cumberland sauce for first course. Pheasant legs in the pressure cooker, cacciatore Sicilian style. House smells good. Frying up the breasts later; GF and her kids like them Buffalo style with celery stalks and ranch dressing. Gotta eat our possession limit; season ends this weekend and I want to get out one last time tomorrow.

Only for you broseph,

For one pound chorizo id use

Largest Cast iron skillet you got.
1 med purple onion diced or pole to pole if you please, 5/6or7 red potatoes diced fry in 2 tbls rendered fats together.
Add to potatos and onions after fried a bit: onion/garlic powder, little salt, pepper, crushed dried oregano, cumin and California chili powder.

When taters are about half done move to sides of skillet or bowl. Fry chorizo mince up while cooking toss potatoes/onions back in when about half done. Cook till almost done.

12 lrg scrambled eggs with 1/4cup whole milk. Pour over chorizo potatoes mix in gently don't break up eggs to much cook couple minutes. Toss in preheated 250 oven till almost firm. Dump on cheeses
i used Cheddar and Romano toss under LOW broiler til melted.

Carry over cooking and residual heat is you friend don't dry out the damn eggs.

And no raisin sauce Cert, borrowed Kirkland alcohol your choice m1919.

Pull put on cold stove top burner and serve with fresh homemade flour tortillas.

Love easy comfort food !!

Only 1 x ? = 250*, or 350* ?

Not sure what your asking. Oven temp?

Yeah Phil ?

Sorry !

250*F, seems really low !

250 is safer to not dry out eggs. Most ppl dry out egg pie. Cast iron is already hot from all stove top. Oven is just to set egg mix plus broiler to quick melt without over cooking.

I hate over cooked eggs.

Roger that, Fella !

Have a great weekend.

Pie sounds delicious.

Yes

Been learning to cook deer meat prepared in ways other than sausage, ground, or fried. Friday night was:

Bacon wrapped tenderloin with cream cheese, jalapeño and garlic clove with garlic rice. Cooked medium/ medium rare.
First time ever having deer cooked that light. Much better than well done!

Attached picture 57051BD1-0267-496B-A4BF-E37D01090F9D.jpeg

Attached picture 57051BD1-0267-496B-A4BF-E37D01090F9D.jpeg

Then last week, I made fajitas:

Cut deermeat into fajita sized strips and season heavily the carne asada seasoning. Cook in olive oil until mostly done. Remove from skillet.

Add a little more olive oil and put in a finely diced onion and season heavily with carne asada seasoning as well and cook until tender. Add 1/4 cup water and stir until water is mostly cooked out then add deer meat and a garlic clove and finish cooking.

This was my favorite of all the ways I have prepared it so far.

The extent of food production we do would blow your mind.

We don’t buy ground beef. We buy 2 piece boneless chuck or chuck rolls 70 pounds at a time, and grind our own. Saved 4 pounds for the soup.

For Italian Sausage, we bone out 70 pound cases of butts, grind, season and stuff hog casings

Is that some kinda “Italian” thing ? 😜

To quote an Alan Jackson song :

“ I'll be honest with you ma'am, it ain't like mama fixed it" 😬

My version of homemade beef stew is pretty simple.

Leftover roast meat, Hunts tomato sauce & diced & skinned canned tomato’s chopped up, lots of potatoes, a can of whole corn and a can of Lima beans. Little bit of diced onions, salt, pepper, and garlic to taste.
Serve with saltine crackers and medium cheddar cheese slices. Or a pan of fresh baked jiffy cornbread if I’m feeling energetic. Heavily buttered.

I call it poor boy stew. 😀
It’s what Mom did with left over roast. Damn good stuff if your hungry.

My three sons and I spent the weekend in Dallas to arrive home yesterday to a slow cooker of ham and bean soup. Tonight my wife noticed an aging head of broccoli in the fridge so it was cream of broccoli soup tonight. All well done and comforting with the chill.

They had a chili cook off a the local pub today. Winner gets their recipe cooked up for the Super Bowl party, plus some gift cards and bragging rights.

I did bear chili, using this recipe: https://www.dabblingwild.com/post/bear-chili

People were coming up to me and telling me how great it was, they cleaned the pot. Particularly people who’d never had bear before.

And I didn’t even make the top three. The winning chili was overloaded with both kidney beans and pork and beans and too much sugar. Pork and beans, in chili!!!???

Undeterred, next weekend I’m going to cook this one for our next pheasant hunt: https://www.fieldandstream.com/recipe-black-blue-chili/

Just an Aladin table lamp.

My mom got it for me for Christmas several years ago.

Use it when the power goes out. Or just whenever.

One thing we like to do is light it after supper and turn off the lights.

Then we have dessert.

We call it Night Pie. Because we (I) am weird.

I like those Aladin lamps. They are supposed to be the best.

I need to pick one up one day so I can enjoy some Night Pie as well.

Scrambled eggs with chopped lamb rib meat;

[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]

My wife and I like Lamb. The only local place to buy is at Sams. We like Boneless leg of lamb but lately the ones they have been selling are too big. and they didn't have chops so I bought one of the big ones. When I go it home I sliced it in 1" steaks and vaccum packed in packages what we wouldn't eat and froze. I cooked some of the steaks last night on the charcoal grill with a green hickory chunk for smoke. It wasn't as good as a prime ribeye. But they were darn good. Tender and tasted really good. I will definitely be doing it again.

Right on, HW !!!

It's good, when we use our noggin, for our greater good !!!

One has to take that in like a painting from one of the classics......Look at the lines of composition, the delicate dollops of mustard placed along the length of the classically prepared dog. The whimsical yet exacting angle of the dog across the exquisitely baked cracked wheat bread. It's a picture in itself, displayed so grandly on the synthetic cutting board atop a corian counter top , and the fine K-mart cutlery laying atop the photographic composition.
Im simply in awe of Wabis' mastery and technique , achieving epicurean heights not often seen on these pages. I'll follow his creations with child like awe, and attempt to master his technique and hope I can come close to his frequent offerings here.

I use Paula Deen's pot roast recipe. It's never let me down.

Pastrami sandwich with grey poupon, pickles, and pepper jack cheese. Beer battered waffle fries made from some pretty small potatoes we had left over.

Blackeyed peas, turnip greens, and pork hock.

Please elaborate on the pork hock.

It's just an uncured, unsmoked pig hock. I simmer it for a while until it's tender before I add the peas. Ends up sliding off the bones tender. Makes a good broth.

It was Ghirardelli chocolate, but I can’t comment on the cacao %, as I don’t care for dark chocolate.

I’m not certain the jap powdered curry is the same that is used to make this dish. I used the pre formed roux cubes made by golden curry.

Sweet! I have that same box!

I peeled and cubed 2 medium sized celery roots, 1.49/lb is hard to pass up. Boiled in salted water with 2 Shallots cubed and 5-6 mashed garlic cloves until root was tender. Drained about 3/4 of water, added 1/2 stick of butter and about 1/2 cup cream or so and put in immersion blender. Could use potato masher. Season with salt and pepper. Really great flavor.

Dinner, here in the South, the noon meal. You ever see a picture of the Lord’s Dinner? Supper is the evening meal. For dinner: I fixed roasted chicken breast with red & green bell peppers, onions and garlic pods. Coat the chicken and the rest in olive oil and broil it. Also mild and jalapeño poppers with a concoction of cream cheese, mild cheese, diced onion, pecans and bacon bits on them, white rice and English peas. Pistachio pudding with vanilla wafers and Kool Whip for dessert. Oh forgot the leftover yellow squash with onions and cornbread. And sweet tea, house wine of the South!
For supper : I made a layered salad of iceberg lettuce, English peas, hard boiled egg slices, bacon and ham bits, grated mild cheddar cheese, and Parmesan sprinkled on. The topping is a mixture of sour cream and Kraft mayo with a tiny bit of sugar. Salt and pepper and add the topping. I baked a small Primrose half ham this afternoon for sandwiches, ham & GF biscuits later on in the week. Turned out great used apple juice and brown sugar to keep it from drying out. Baked 12 minutes per pound at 325-*. It was already fully cooked. I cook dinner every day when we don’t have an appointment. I do it from a wheelchair since I lost my L leg below the knee to Covid. Wife is gluten intolerant and is a 2X cancer survivor. We eat pretty healthy.
Sent the home health nurse out with some poppers. She commented on how they smelled. She couldn’t stay for dinner.

My hat's off to you sir. Sounds like great food.

Ma is gone so I asked the boys what they wanted to eat.

Go out or eat at home I asked. Home they said.

They requested hamburger gravy, mashed potatoes and green peas.

Please provide a recipe for Hamburger Gravy

Never use a written recipe.

This time it was a yellow onion sweated down in a tablespoon of Evoo.

Pinch of salt.

Browned two pound of burger in pan. Worchestershire sauce and soy sauce. About a tbs each.

Cooked burger and added a rounded third cup flour. Cooked the roux for a bit and added the whole milk.

Seasoned to taste with SPG and Onion.

Kids liked it.

probably not here,

The old man forced me to eat some canned hash when I was maybe 5 years old. It never sat right and I figure I can live life eating the corned beef separately instead of all chopped up.

We were one of those "If it's on your plate you'll damn well eat it " households. Had to eat lima beans once also. Threw them up when I got back to school after lunch. Never again.

That dang cuttlefish is making me hungry though. I just had a sardine and cheese sammich and I must be in the mood for seafood.

Wow, Paul, you weren’t kidding. That’s some great looking sea meat.

Nice

Catching Kings thru the ice has to be interesting, would never have thought.and the bounty is well rewarded I'm sure.

The bear was great (even smeared some of that nice fat around to season the griddle) and the salmon was nicely done, without pieces falling through the grill like on the bbq. The Blackstone puts a nice crust on the meat.

99s,

Would you mind sharing the coconut basmati recipe? Every one I have tried ends up with clumpy, gloopy rice...

Thanks in advance.

We use a rice cooker.

1 x 400ml (2 cups) can of coconut milk, per 200ml (cup) of rice.

Hit go button & switches to warm, once moisture evaporated/absorbed !

Sorry Man, sounds like it, either needs a longer cook, or you're using to much liquid.

Don’t forget to wash your rice too.

Yes, definitely will be "clumpier", if the starches aren't washed off/out !

Deb didn't wash last nights & it was clumpier, than when I do it.

Maybe I just don't like the texture of cocnut rice.

I have always acribed the problem to the fattiness of the coconut milk. Perhaps I should try only using the coconut "water."

Thanks.
