What did I cook this weekend.....

[bleme]

I gave my new Inkbird Sous Vide it's first dinner and it couldn't have turned out any better. I seasoned and vacuum packed the chicken breasts on Monday. Yesterday my 14yo was home for 'school' so I walked her thru starting the chicken over the phone. They cooked at 150F until I got home, about 5 hours later, when I browned them for 2 minutes outside on a smoking hot cast iron grill. Put them on ice while we made the rest of the salad.

My 14yo hadn't been looking forward to dinner when she found out we were having chicken (again!) but after she tried it she said, "That is not the chicken I was expecting. We could eat like that every night!". My wife had to work (and eat) late, but said that if I had put the salad in a to-go container, she totally would have believed it came from a good restaurant.

My bread is getting less uglier now that I'm learning how to shape it up better. I made a kveik dough starter 3 months ago that I bake with every week and re-feed.

BBQ pork chops with black eye peas. Deb made a nice salad with small mozzarella balls. The chops were dry but the salad was great. I think they were just a bad cut. I'll blame it on the dog.

Just pulled into this out of the oven to cool. Sourdough rye.

Three-egg omelette with sauteed mushrooms, artichoke hearts, sharp white cheddar and American for the gooey factor.I still feel new to the black steel pan game and amazed how non-stick they are with just a little seasoning upkeep.

The market had some reduced small white eggplants so this is ratatouille, for another day.

Salmon on a cedar plank and grilled eggplant.

Pizza. This is one of the three or four photos I posted on the pizza thread just now. These came out good. I fiddled with wheat gluten and was breaking in some new pans. I used fresh garlic in the sauce this time and it gave it more depth of flavor.

WHAT?! There IS no such thing as "way too much cream cheese icing" - next time that happens just send it on over to me, I'll take care of it for you!

Ha! I owe you a Coke!

This felt like half a day of prep! Stuffed maduro, yellow rice and beans (from dry) and guacamole.

So brisket flat cured, rinsed, desalinated, seasoned, then aged a day and a half in the fridge. 3 hours at 225°, 1 hour at 250°. Wrapped at internal temp of 165°. Can’t wait to cut this up later! MAN I love Pastrami!

 

[Temptd2]

Bacon-wrapped, cheese-stuffed jalapeno poppers - don't think I've made them since we've lived in AZ which is going on 3 years already! SPICY but so good...ice cream later....picture before they hit the oven:

Pork shoulder going on the smoker tomorrow with a bunch of pecan chunks.

Yummy!
