What did I cook this weekend.....

[TwistedGray]

Grown in a shallow garden bed? Looks delicious.

Yeah and in a cluster nonetheless...never bothered to thin out...I'm lazy

HM pastrami Reuben and Yeungling. Very tasty.

A package of Costco's St Louis style ribs. 3 racks, so cut in half for ease of cooking in the Foodi Ninja. 35 minute pressure cook, then 15 minutes on the grill at 400 for half, 15 minutes on air fry in the Foodi at 400 for the other half, plus grilled corn on the cob. I wanted to see if there was a noticeable difference in the finishing method. There was, but no one had a favorite.

Did you have a preference?

 

[Jonakr]

Did you have a preference?

No. The ones on the grill got a bit burned, while the air fried ones were evenly cooked. Other than that, I think I preferred the cook from the frier a bit more. But, it means I can have three racks ready to eat at the same time.

Somehow my son and I got to cook our father's day dinner, but that's okay, it was fun. I grilled 2 pounds of shrimp s an appetizer, then ribeyes for the son and me, tenderloins for my wife and grandson. The 6 year old likes his steak very rare-my wife tried to get me to cook it more but he wanted it like it was. Our son cooked a side dish of sautéed green beans and mushrooms in garlic butter.

Corky, good for your grandson for knowing what he likes and good on YOU to cook it that way for him! My Dad ALWAYS overcooked my steak even though I'd stand there and tell him, "Please take it off now, Dad!" he wouldn't do it, he'd say "It's still mooing!" LOL! I'm 70 now and I STILL like my steak very rare. Not blue (although I've been known to eat it that way) but warm all the way through.

I offered KOTC several choices for his dinner yesterday and he chose taco salad so that's what we had. It was delicious.

Wild caught red snapper grilled on cedar plank with stir fried veg and mash.

Interesting what you guys call shrimps we call prawns. Our prawns are bigger than our shrimp which are tiny. Shrimps are usually cooked then served in butter that’s melted then hardened.

Over here prawns are huge, up to 15 cm. Shrimp are sized and sold by how many are in a pound. 60/80 are small, we usually buy the 20/30 size.

 

[Rish]

Chinese sausage and sticky rice (left over from making rice wine) with stir fried bok choy. Got my timing wrong so hammered the bok choy but still pretty tasty in spite of being over cooked.

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

Today’s brunch with homemade sourdough.

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

Cowboy steak, garlic toast and a salad.

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

I had to google those sausages. Both sound delicious, I may have to try making the merguez!

Just hubby and myself at home, I had sticky fingers from plating our BBQ slathered chicken and ribs, (so no picture) with baked beans and green salad.

One of two steaks I grilled for dinner on this 4th of July. Served with corn on the cob, salad, and some watermelon.

 

[beermanpete]

No bbq today. We made mac 'n' cheese with leftover smoked pork from last weekend and a salad.

 

[Temptd2]

We grilled two nice thick Porterhouse steaks, and I made fauxtater salad, which is just potato salad made with steamed cauliflower cut into small florets instead of potatoes. We like it just as well.

Got enough steak left over to make steak salads tonight - mine will have bleu cheese on it, DH will have feta!

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

Cabbage rolls and homemade sourdough.

 

[YeastFeast]

If you ever get a chance, smoke a beef top blade roast! This 3.25 lb’er cooked @ 275°F for 5.5 hrs (internal temp of 210°F). Rest for 30 min then shred with 2 forks. It was incredible that way but then I sautéd a yellow pepper, mushrooms & onions and mixed it with the pulled beef. Really good on a bun or straight up on a plate!
Cheers!

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

Ribs, a chicken drumstick leftover from the 4th with mac salad and broccoli.

I am in the mood for Golumpki. Looks delicious!

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

Thanks, I like more beef than rice in the filling and the sauce is tomato purée with onions and a touch of honey instead of tomato soup.

 

[Oldskewl]

I never tried it with tomato puree. Always used tomato soup. Will have to give it a try.

 

[TwistedGray]

Bean and machaca stuffed squash.

Squash, beans, and peppers from the garden along with some store bought stuff
