I love this hot sauce from Founders! It has a very unique flavor profile. My bottle is about kicked as well. My wife got it for me for Christmas last year.

I ordered from Founder's again this time, because it ends up being cheaper than ordering from BLiS. Of course, I ordered a couple of other things as shown below. Last time I got their steak sauce too, and it's quite good as well.

Wow! I got that same glass for Christmas this year. Ha Ha! I could have sworn it had a Mountie on the horse.

So, I guess I'm I'm cheating a bit. I didn't make this recently. This is salmon salt cured early November and tossed into the freezer 11/13. It's fantastic. So I didn't make it this weekend but my bride and I will make short work of it this weekend.

Porcinis from the woods, onions, and a sous vide ribeye.

More mushroom goodness

Making a batch of keto wonderful waffles which we use in place of bread for sandwiches and burgers and the like.

They're even good as waffles!

sandwiches and burgers

Those look great. What's the main ingredient that makes them low-carb (if that's similar to Keto)?

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

Waffle sammies are fun and delicious. Those look perfect and uniform!

 

[davidabcd]

^+1 on that. Noticed it but didn't mention it. ^

Egg whites, mayo, almond flour, oat fiber, baking powder, psyllium husk, salt, a little water. Easy to whip up and the little nooks and crannies are good at hanging onto condiments. I've even done grilled cheese with decent results!

I'll post my recipe if anyone wants to try it.

Thanks for the info. I really should have guessed that nuts make Keto possible, oh well.

Another ribeye blanketed in porcinis

Most definitely doesn't look pretty in the jar. But tastes wonderful. Canned walleye with liquid smoke. First time need to pack the fish tighter.

 

[beermanpete]

Split pea soup and buttermilk biscuits.

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

Spaghetti with meat sauce, topped with ricotta.

Made another thin crispy crust pizza for my spoiled grandson Friday afternoon (note to self: dock the dough so it does not bubble so much!) lol

Not shown is the second pizza with Pepperoni, Genoa Salami and Calabrian chilies, and with much fancier cheeses

I am just loving the cracker crust results I'm getting with this recipe!

 

[Hoppy2bmerry]

Sourdough English muffins. Better than the first batch due to smaller size and less cooking time.

From the "Too much Fried Food dept":

Corn fritters. My wife came home from travels and asked for funnel cakes (which I dutifully made). But, with the oil hot...

I got up at 2am to smoke a pork butt that my wife requested. Turned out pretty nice.

2 AM? Who's better than you. Hopefully your bride swooned while exclaiming, "My hero".

Spectacular looking piece of pork by the way.

Those turned out perfect this time!!! Just look wonderful! Now I want details on recipe and process, because I would just love to duplicate results as good as those! Please

I picked up a bone-in shoulder Sunday for $0.97/lb on sale at Kroger. Was just going to make sausage with it, but after seeing your wonderful picture I may just smoke it! Nicely done!

Thank you, it was tasty. I'm having it for lunch again today. That's a good price, I'd smoke one and grab another for sausage making.

Thank you. A few years ago she asked me to smoke a turkey for her work Christmas party....the afternoon before the party. I did it.... I'm too nice.

We do that with mullet down on the FL/AL gulf coast. Tastes way better than it looks.

My wife made chilaquiles for lunch yesterday : )

This is the source of the recipe:
https://littlespoonfarm.com/sourdou...USLPvxLAUMp0#sourdough-english-muffins-recipeWhat I did differently from the first batch was made them smaller by cutting circles with an empty veggitable can rather than an empty ricotta cheese can (the way it comes from a Brooklyn shop), I accidentally ommited the sugar (no problem) and used a 1/3 cup starter that doubled overnight. Did some stretch and fold with the dough rather than simply kneading the dough wanting a more open crumb. The rest is in the recipe. Thanks again to @Brewbuzzard for the first post of sourdough English muffin.
