T-bones with just some sweet potato and rye bread. Boring sides but lets be honest, who needs sides with a steak that big...

Spent the day making 3 gallons of chicken stock. I always buy whole chickens and cut them up. The carcasses go in the freezer until I get enough to do a big batch of stock. I have not bought stock in probably 25 years.


Now I guess I have to think about making dinner.

Home made trumps anything you can buy, I make big batches and freeze in small portions for future use, I love soup:D

That is exactly what I do. I freeze it in one and two cup containers. Need stock, just pull it out and you are good. Chicken stock is a good kitchen staple.
 
Sounds good, what's your recipe?

Not the one I did last night! It was okay, but not what I was after. Prepped reserved marinade to use as a sauce per the recipe and it was watery and useless and looked nothing like it did on TV. Typical of foodnetwork, that the published recipe is not really what was done by the chef on the program. Chicken was good, but just not what it should have been. I'll post something when I get it fixed.
 
5# cabbage 3 tb salt turn up the volume:) I know, not really cooking, but I am fermenting.

Exiting video! *bloop*
I started a batch of kraut about a week ago...3 heads of cabbage, about
3-1/2 to 4lbs. I don't have the nice crock, though. I'm using the ole 2 gallon fermentation bucket, a plate, a canning jar, lid, and airlock. Works, though.

My first fermentation container for Kraut was a gallon glass pickle jar that I drilled a hole for a bung. With this crock I shouldn't have to wash a weight off now and then as with an open crock. I looked for a used crock like this one, but finally caved in and got this one 25% off with free shipping from Williams Sonoma. It looks nice while I'm not using it, lol. :ban:
 
The other side tastes like nothing:D...never understood the fascination with filet

I've never been a big fan of filet. It's a way over priced cut of meat. Tenderness is all it has going for it. Other than that it's flavorless and easy to dry out.

X3

Love NY Strip, Ribeye, Filet in that order.
 
I guess if you don't have a knife and still want steak, filet is the way to go. Otherwise, yeah, get a real steak.
