I'm making pumpkin ravioli today. We are thinking alike!

Just pulled seeds out of the oven. A mix of pumpkin pie spices, sugar, salt, pepper, and cayenne for flavor. Had some extra cubes from canning that didn't fit, so I'm cooking them down on the stove top...planning pumpkin bread. Oh, and my pumpkin butter went overnight...lotsa liquid. Added a cap of cider vinegar...just what it needed... and put it in a jar in the fridge.

Not big on sweets but love biscotti! Pistachio biscotti sounds outstanding:rockin:

 

[Staestc]

Biscotti rocks! And OMG folks are doing good eats today!! Ribs are about ready to wrap in foil and finish for a couple of more hours. Which is cool, cause I need to wash the apple juice out of my single spray bottle so that I can finish rolling cigars! Lol

Mmmmmm Melana - I'll bring the chile verde and some homefried tortilla chips and the biscotti to your house if you'll share the meatballs/sauce and chili!

Heck I'll even bring the sake - it tastes really good warmed up a bit on a cool night.

SWMBO asked if I could do something with some b/s chicken thighs we have in the freezer. I thought "I have some leftover peppers from yesterday, maybe I stuff the thighs with peppers. And onions. Or maybe I stuff them with a little sausage and peppers and onions.

... Or maybe I stuff them with just sausage. And wrap them in bacon. And grill them. Yes. Yes. That. That'll do.

I got a couple of kielbasa from the local shop, and I'll cut them open and briefly saute the loose sausage and stuff the thighs. After grilling I'll serve them on a bed of those peppers and onions which will be grilled separately. Spirits are high.

 

[Staestc]

Melana, your busy tonight! Would like to eat all of it! Chili looks awesome!

Thanks. I even managed to brew 10 gallons of rye ipa today.

My ribs are always good, but something about these was just over the top. Hate to pat myself on the back but these were OMG ribs tonight!

Have a whole rack of spare ribs that we did not even get to!!

 

[Gavin C]

Drool-worthy ribs.

Just incredible looking maestro.

 

[applescrap]

Closing the loop on the andouille sausage I've been using lately: smoked it last night. Went great, chilled when done, had for lunch today with spicey yellow rice / black beans / onions, with a bit of sweet hot mustard. It's a fairly spicey sausage with a TON of flavor. I used the smoked andouille recipe from Charcuterie.

Amazing looking..Recipe use pink salt cure?

Jerk Chicken, steamed cabbage, rice and peas

Nothing like chicken with rice and peas. The cabbage looks good too. Is that carrot in with it? I really want to do callaloo, but had to get the right ingredients near here.

 

[Staestc]

Chili

Chili looks even more awesome now that I can see it properly on the computer instead of the phone. Is it a recipe or did you just wing it, and either way what did you do and what all is in it? It really looks mouth watering!

Took them to about 155 then wrapped up in foil and then took them to 185-190. Rested wrapped for 15-20 minutes or so while I was grilling some sausages.

Yep, the cabbage has carrots, sweet onions, garlic and a bit of orange and green bell pepper, sautéed in butter before adding the cabbage and letting it all steam. I can't get enough of it and goes perfect with the chicken and rice

Yessir.

Coincidentally, my buddy and I (who's also a neighbor) went biking yesterday morning. His wife was making gumbo and he (buddy) was going to pick up some smoked andouille on the way home from our biking tour. I had him covered for that

I just put stuff in the pot. No beans. The meat is ground beef and pulled pork. I had a cup of frozen chili that I added.

Making up dinner as I go along, I have an abundance of kale in the garden, blanched it and wrapping up a mixture on ground pork, quinoa, onion, garlic and spices. View attachment ImageUploadedByHome Brew1447005989.261079.jpgView attachment ImageUploadedByHome Brew1447006017.879964.jpg

 

[dad23ds]

Bacon-wrapped jalapenos and some ribs. I lose man points for using an oven. I still need to get a smoker.

Yer off the map pilgrim! I love kale because it keeps it's shape and crunch even after cooking. Let us know how this turns out.
