Hey, Thanks for the link. I have a couple of Le Creuset pots that are pretty beat.

I have two of them that have been in heavy use for over ten years and no problems so far. Thinking of throwing some peas and a smoked pig ankle into one of them tomorrow!
 
I had the smoker going all weekend. First I did an 12 hour cold smoke on a wild boar country ham that is an ongoing project. Then did a few racks of baby backs using a recipe from a new smoking book I got for xmas. Dry rubbed and smoked 2 hours on cherry wood than wrapped in foil with honey/butter/brown sugar and 2 hours more in the smoker. Finished off with a applesauce bbq glaze. Served up with coleslaw, smoked potato salad, and corn bread.

Can't I not like this but love it! Looks awesome!:D
 
 
Played with the waffle maker tonight since it was out from this morning from another experiment that wasn't all that great but edible.
Anyway pierogis waffle and taste darn fine! Garlic yogurt, caramelized onions, fried sage and green onions, happy and probably stinky;)View attachment ImageUploadedByHome Brew1451869005.326300.jpg

Dude...wild boar country ham? That right there is meat eater's porn! Yum!
 
Made a broth in the pressure cooker today with the Thanksgiving and Xmas turkey carcasses.

Wing and carcass meat, German egg noodle, some other seasonings to taste, veggies (peas, carrots, celery, soy beans) added to the resulting broth.

Wash it all down with some HB Pilsner

Ahhh!

@gavin man that looks good. I just pressure cooked some beans and they had too much water do you have a ratio by chance
@psylocide are you part asian? You have those pot stickers down. They always look good.
 
I remember getting stuff like that fresh while on vacation on Cape Fear. All the seafood in the area was fresh that morning & a few bucks a pound cheaper than here.

Negative.

However, it took me approx. 2 years of making them to really get the folds down. And even then, an Asian grandmother would probably call them a disgrace.

I just made potstickers the other night and never appreciated the art of folding the dough until then. Looks simple enough but I managed to make it awfully complicated. Yours looked very well put together.
 
Found some energy yesterday afternoon and finally put all the holiday leftovers to use making soups. Did lentil, 15 bean and beef barley and let them simmer all evening and resumed this morning.

Sampled them all for lunch. 15 bean turned out solid - but I'll probably add some more red pepper flakes before I put it into containers to freeze.

Lentil is perfect with a few shots of jalapeño pepper sauce. Best of the three.

The beef barley is the heartiest but ended up a touch salty.

Should be set for a while now that the cold weather is moving in.
 
Mc...Do you use a friggen tape measure lay out your cut lines? That is a mindbogglingly uniform dice.:rockin:

I made grilled chicken & fettucini Alfredo again. I like it. No pics. Didn't happen.
 
Wow - that's enough soup to feed a platoon!! :rockin:

How long does it last you?

Looks delicious! :mug:

It's -20 celcius outside today, need something to warm me up.

A big pork outer filet, with a chopped red onion and some seasoning -> into the Le Creuset pot with the lid on -> 100 celcius oven for 13 hours. Meat was falling apart with a fork and there was about 1 litre of juices.

Soaked a kilo of peas overnight in water. Pulled the pot out of the oven and onto the stovetop, added the peas, a glass of water and some black peppercorns.

I'm guessing it will be ready for lunch - about 2 hours from now.

No tape measure, just lots of practice - and I may be slightly anal retentive. ;)

I eat soup for lunch every day so only a couple of weeks. Then I'll probably do a couple of batches of chili.

How can THAT be unhealthy?

Roasted veggie - HEALTHY

Hot Sauce - HEALTHY

Combine the two - SUPER DUPER HEALTHFOOD!! :rockin:

Agreed. And anyway veggies are like negative when it comes to unhealthy. I am sure that more than makes up for the butter and hot sauce. The hot sauce is not bad for you and the spicy is a fat burner. And if julia child and paula deen have anything to say about it butter is good for you as well.

Well, Julia is dead and Paula has the 'beetus. (Though Julia lived to be 91). But I must admit that there is no substitute for butter that ever made me exclaim "I can't believe it's not butter!".
