What did I cook this weekend.....

[Staestc]

Looks great! I love Ricotta, but a lot of recipes have way too much for my liking!

Last picture I have of the ribs before the rib feast over the weekend, a while before they were done but shortly before I wrapped them in foil and finished them.

Just caught up with the past week and I SO want to make some SOS. My Dad made that all the time when I was a kid, then when I was in the Coast Guard they made biscuits and gravy. Tough to decide which is better. It's the breakfast choice version of Ginger vs MaryAnne.

Same here. Pop being a Seabee, we had this frequently at home. i got o liking it...

I didn't take any pictures last night of the thirty-six meatballs and tomato sauce that I threw together after work. Took me just under an hour not including the cook time on the meatballs. Everything is packaged in my freezer now and ready for future easy dinner.

A giant slow cooker pot of green thai curry with chicken drumsticks and potatoes.

A giant pot of tomato sauce with spiced sausages and veggies (used the last few cans of my mothers canned tomato juice to free up mason jars for pickled eggings).

Basmati rice to go with both of the above.

Two batches of pickled eggs, one regular chicken eggs, the other quail eggs from my boss' farm.

A sandwich. If I have to put a knife to something that counts enough for me

It's only -5C right now, I might BBQ some sausages tonight.

I used to make a week's worth of grilled chicken & veggies and freeze it all in individual portions to take to work for lunch. I haven't done that in a long time, I'll have to start doing so again. Thanks for the memory jog!
Regards, GF.

My wife & I were watching Chopped last night & they had to make meatballs from lamb meatballs in one phase & boar shoulder meatballs in the other. Gives me some ideas, like buffalo meatballs in the pit with honey bbq sauce. Maybe with Montreal steak seasoning?

Last night I made Chicken tenderloins wrapped in bacon, with spinach and parmesan filling. Melana sugegste something similar a few pages back. It was pretty good, but not amazing. My wife thought it was amazing though.

What's your chimichurri sauce recipe?

I've made a few different ones, but the wife swears it's not nearly the same as the chimichurri sauce that Chili's used to have.

My response is that mine is of course better, but I also know enough, of course, to not actually say that.

This was a quick sauce of what I had on hand, seeing that I didnt have parsley:

~3/4 cup cilantro
1oz canola oil (trying to keep it healthy)
2 cloves minced garlic
1tsp cumin
salt and pepper to taste
Thinned with a little water to help achieve a liquid consistency

These are just estimated guesses as I kinda threw stuff together on the fly. Turned out very tasty though

Wow that looks great.

 

[Natdavis777]

Wow that looks great.

Thanks

The adobo marinade is really easy. For say, five 4-5oz breasts, use:

1can chipotle peppers in adobo sauce
1 clove garlic minced
1tsp cumin
1oz lime juce

Add all to food processor

I eat grilled chicken A LOT and this is usually how I prepare it because the flavor is awesome

@Eubanks

Yes. I will put the cake recipe and the recipe for the baked beans I did with the ribs as soon as I get on a computer. I will try and remember to pm it too you as well.

We are under a winter storm warning at the moment. It has been raining for 2 days and is changing to sleet and freezing rain at the moment with sleet and snow later on tonight.

So I am making Hot and Sour Soup and Pot Stickers to celebrate!!! Lol

 

[mattmmille]

I made cornbread in my cast iron pan that goes at least one generation past my father...maybe more. Nothing fancy, but it felt good. And, BTW, vegan crab cakes from Whole Foods? Surprisingly good!

I hate this iPhone app.

I brined a big brisket into a corned beef, then coated with pepper and coriander and garlic, then smoked to make this pastrami.

The rest of the sandwich is homemade swiss (Jarlsberg) cheese, homemade cole slaw, homemade kraut, homemade mustard, and homemade rye with lots of extra caraway seed.

Also pictured is a super-drinkable homebrew amarillo / simcoe IPA, served from the keg through a randall holding 3 oz of leaf centennial. Nose full of hops, I'm loving that Hop Rocket.

My mouth is watering, and I just ate...

Im going to do a pork shoulder Saturday and make some Carolina BBQ sauce. I need something summer-ish to drown out winter

 

[beergolf]

These spices are expensive but very awesome.

I found them because Federal Donuts in Philly uses them for some of their fried chicken recipes and they have some of the best chicken I have ever had.

I bought a couple and have been using them..mmmmm

Made a plain roasted chicken with the za'atar spice and it was great.

Not for evryone but very interesting stuff.

spun a couple of chickens on the rotis, and served with the roasted onions, spuds and carrots that the birds dripped on
