What did I cook this weekend.....

[kev211]

Last month I was fortunate enough to be invited to help cook at The James Beard House in NYC. It was a BBQ themed dinner that included these monster beef plate ribs.

So that explains why all of your food always looks so dang good. Congrats! That's a hell of an honor

One of the littlenecks mysteriously disappeared somewhere.

Neighborhood cat stole it? I made hot lobster rolls and slaw. Used pretzle rolls I had on hand.

No picture, so I'm sure I'm imagining the whole thing - but BoBo Salmon with brown rice and green peas. Dang it was good.

BoBo Salmon - salmon filets, preferably boneless/skinless, sprinkle each side with brown sugar (not too much, just a fine coating) and then rub in a dash or three of Worcestershire sauce - enough to wet the brown sugar. Do that on both sides of each filet. Let stand on a platter at room temp about 20 minutes, flip them over every now and then and rub the stuff around on it.

Broil on a foil-lined, Pam-sprayed pan til browned on each side, takes maybe 3 minutes or so, just watch it so it doesn't burn.

It's so good!

Have tried adding stuff like garlic powder, minced green onions, etc. Don't. You want it just those two ingredients. Trust me. It's name BoBo Salmon because my uncle, whom my sister and I called BoBo, made it this way all the time. Works on salmon steaks too. I like the B/S salmon from Costco best for this one.

Lamb chops, marinated in olive oil with garden fresh tosemary, oregano, chives and garlic. Brigitte made ratatouille with eggplants from the garden. The rest of the veggies are store bough since the hailstorm made me replant my garden back in June.

That looks delightful. I like how the roll was cut and filled.

Friday night some friends made a Stuffed Mushroom Casserole and we made a Snickerdoodle Apple Cobbler. Took them both down to the new brewery in town and shared with others. (They don't have food there yet, so the encourage people to bring in their own or order in from other places...)

We both got very positive responses to the food.

For the cobbler I chose Golden Delicious and Granny Smith apples. I'm very pleased with that combination.

The cobbler is basically snickerdoole cookie dough dropped on top of pre-cooked apple filling (I added just a bit of cornstarch to make the loose juice a bit thicker.) and then baked.

I had more than 1 pan could hold, so I made a smaller batch for home, and then some snickerdoodle topping left over as well, so I made a very large snickerdoodle cookie too.

All in all, a good time. After we ate we sat there having a few more beers and socializing. I texted my daughter to bring the smaller dish of cobbler because we were getting the munchies, but she wouldn't do it. She said she was too tired, but I think she just didn't want us eating it all!

This is how to properly cook Tuna.
On top of your Charcoal Chimney:

About 30 seconds on each edge then 3.5 mins each side.

The fish looks cooked perfectly. I hope to get out that way some time for the sea food.

Come to Masstoberfest. The menu can be adjusted.

Cast-iron seared chops. Serving with white rice, white beans in homemade sofrito and a salad on the side. Need a beer to somehow link to the meal, of course.

Back to school, back to bulk. Pancakes, pancakes, pancakes! These were dropped by teaspoon, next time I will do tablespoons, it was too much work. Safflower oil on searing hot grill. Bought green chilli, etc to make breakfast burritos. But also parchment paper. Freezing them in saran wrap, makes them not reheat well.

Back to school August 10? Get outta here.

 

[applescrap]

No the 14th! The old buildings don't have air conditioning so they start late.

 

[paulthenurse]

I think there would be riots in the streets if they started school around here before Labor Day.
