@damlamb that looks wonderful to me!

Fat. Pan-seared burgers. Too lazy to cook outside on the grill.

No pics, but made egg beaters omelettes with split salmon tails for brunch. Some meyer lemon was even good on the eggs!

Smoked pull pork nachos after five IPAs. Perfect grub.

Made some peanut butter/caramel popcorn last night...SWMBO was a little peeved that I ate some Crunch & Munch she was counting on. I found an easy recipe on Pinterest and surprised her. Forgot photos...oops. But it was basically 1/2 cup honey and 1/2 cup sugar with a pinch of salt, boiled together for 3 or 4 minutes, remove from heat and stir in 2/3 cup creamy peanut butter. I was out of dry roasted peanuts, but I would add 1/2 cup of those next time. Pour the hot stuff (carefully!) over a big batch of popcorn and mix with a rubber spatutla.(Try to make sure any unpopped kernals are removed!) Pour out onto parchment lined baking sheet and cool completely. Break up into small clusters and serve. SWMBO could not stop eating it!

Wow! This is a post I thought I was putting up the other night when I did the poblano chicken and it was just sitting here when I got on the forum via phone tonight! Maybe I did post and app gave me the random you have to wait 30 seconds message. If so, sorry for the double post.

So now I'm at a pause. After endless complaints about not having dinner ready till 8 or 8:30, having it ready at 6:45 is too early! Lol. No worries though. It just sits now until I put it in the oven to brown the cheese and serve, so can smoke another cigar and wait! Both for dinner and the eventual storms that will arrive tonight or tomorrow morning.

Other than missing the crusty bread it hit the mark.
Black beans and rice along with beet greens.

Pickles stay crunchy?

Pickles stay crunchy?

They lacked in the crunch department from the get go but did retain a lot of what they started with.

Teriyaki chicken, veggies, rice, and Sriracha.

cut and rolled

 

[mattmmille]

Making some chicken noodles. Stock made from leftover roasted chicken bones and stuff, plus some caramelized veggies. Picked chicken meat, a little roux, some carrots and celery that I pre-cooked in some of the stock... then adding some Amish egg noodles to cook in stock, before throwing it all together.I also have some asparagus to steam for a side.

Dinner!

Middle daughter's birthday #14. Making a batch of rolls to go with dinner. Miss en place ready for a lemon-blueberry pound cake.

My turducken from sunday. It looked like an alien was about to come out of it's chest. The cornbread stuffing expanded a little more than I expected but once it was cooked through I just cut it in half, carved it, and you couldn't tell.

 

[BeerMeDuffMan]

I didn't cook this, to be fair, but what I have here is beeramisu. The lady fingers were treated with yards love stout in lieu of rum or coffee liquor. So so good, and you get to keep the glass

Looks awesome, but I'm having trouble spotting the bacon?

I made a wild rice, bacon, mushroom, and caramelized onion stuffing to go in the duck and the Cornish game hens(my dad made the request for turducken and he bought them instead of chickens).

FWIW, this was the first time I've seen(in person) or eaten turducken. Is bacon supposed to be included? Also, next time I'm going to go with my gut and take the skin off the duck. It didn't render the way I was led to believe it would and ended up a flabby layer in the middle that was kind of a turn off.

An old problem that's easily remedied. Just fry off the duck before wrapping it in the turkey. A good fifteen minutes worth of rendering and browning inside a skillet results in duck skin that is not only thin and completely tender, but also adds some flavor to the mix.

Awesome! Love cooking for my daughters! And their husbands (mine are a tad older). [emoji1]

Would love to try that!

It's been raining for days here in north Texas. Just flat dreary. So I'm cooking tortilla soup! Comfort food!

Chicken stock is in. Now it just simmers for a bit while all the flavors become friends!

You know it's done when you finish the Tatuaje and you run out of gas!

Hrm... you sound like you are experienced with Turducken. Did you learn the lesson of not trying to flip a Turducken partway through the cooking? Also, that cats love what hits the kitchen floor when it disassembles itself partway through said flip?

Showoff!

Finished products: Lemon-Blueberry Pound Cake...turned out extremely well. Moist, dense, and great flavor. Dad's Rolls...this is about the third or fourth time I've made these and they're really good. I'm not sure where my Dad got the recipe originally or why they are shaped the way they are, but they are a part of my childhood. Unfortunately, as many times as Dad made them, at 89 years old, he doesn't remember ever having made them. Ah well, blessed that he is still fairly sharp...if this is what he forgets, then no big deal.
@Staestc This daughter is 14 today and my son turns 12 next month...but my grandbaby momma is 28 (and married!).
