Happy Holidays!!!

Beef tenderloin after marinating for two days in garlic/rosemary paste then seared and slow-roasted.

Crispy smashed potatoes nestled in a dollop of sour cream topped with an EVO, walnut, anchovy, garlic, golden raisin, and parsley topping.

Made my first (half) rack of lamb. I rubbed it down in @imasickboy brown mustard, vac packed it for three days, removed the spread and coated in a thyme, rosemary, garlic oil then oven roasted.

 

[S-Met]

Prime rib. No plate shots. I'll post dessert tomorrow - need to get pics of wife's phone.

Merry Christmas foodies. Two beef tenderloin roasts hot off the grill. Sliced into melt-into-yer-mouth filets.

I ran out of butchers twine when tying them up - had to find some old kite string in the garage

 

[SundayBrewer]

Smoked PR, sausage ziti, stuffing and others.

 

[S-Met]

Creme brulee cheesecake with gingersnap crust and coffee icecream. Plate dusted with hibiscus powder and a small pile of crushed gingersnaps.
On top of cheesecake is a dried rosebud.

Filet with brussel sprouts and risotto

 

[S-Met]

Rock cod tacos

Man, I've only been offline a few days and there are a ton of truly amazing posts I had missed.

Last night's T-Bones, Cinnamon rolls I made for Christmas day, and Guinness Chocolate Chip cookies and little rum cakes (or what's left of them) that I did right before Christmas eve.

Edit: Oh, and the breakfast meats I did for Christmas Eve brunch. Black pepper bacon, jalapeno bacon, regular bacon, hot sausage, and honey baked ham. Mexican egg casserole and waffles not shown

Nice looking steak

 

[benco]

Raining here and staying inside, this is for the French.

 

[schematix]

Grilled pork chop with grilled mushrooms sautéed with butter and shallots, risotto and green fries.

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

Used a little leftover pie filling for this sweet potato waffle served with real maple syrup and a side of BBQ rub bacon from bacon of the month.

 

[S-Met]

Quiche. Made four pies. More meals for the freezer. I used heavy cream instead of milk. Other ingredients: sharp white cheddar, feta, asparagus, onion, garlic and spinach. I made the crust as well.

@S-Met
Nicely done. I'm sure your guests were blown away.

Dungeness crab season - our neighbors are part of a co-op and had more crab than they could finish

 

[schematix]

Beef and broccoli with prime tenderloin trimmings.

 

[Temptd2]

Dang y'all got me salivating here!!

I made a Hungarian goulash last night, in the Instant Pot - half venison stew cubes and half grass-fed beef stew cubes. Turned out awesome. Forgot to take pictures - will try to do that when we serve it up again tonight at which point I expect it will taste even BETTER!

Had a bunch of leftover Dungeness crab from Christmas eve dinner...

Reheated it in garlic butter and sprinkled with crushed up caesar croutons. It was delicious and way better than crab cakes. I don't know why people waste delicious crab by adding all those other ingredients for crab cakes...

tacos

You made the shells, right? The have the same look as when I deep fry quartered tortillas or whole for tostada shells.
It seems every maker of cooked tortillas is afraid of cooking oil.

Fried the tortilla shells, yes. Did not make the tortilla.

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

Beefy noodle soup was a good meal for this rainy, windy and bone chilling day.

Yeah, there is a line. If I can't make a product significantly better than what I can buy, I buy it. Uncooked tortillas is one of them.
Nice tacos.

Having an HB Quad and cooking cajun chicken. Pounded them to almost 1/4" and used a random cajun blend which turned out 85% well. I eat the breasts with a side of mayo to sidestep the carbs. If someone were so inclined, melting Colby cheese on the breasts and serving them on a buttered and grilled French bread with shredded ice burg lettuce, tomato and mayo is nice.
I edited to put the correct final dish photo
