32 once porterhouse with baby bella mushrooms and onions soaked in butter

I have a few things set up for the week...

• Tri-tip steak: oven roasted but I'm torn on giving it a wet or dry marinade
• Baby back ribs: covered in Famous Dave's Rib Rub overnight and oven-roasted
• Chicken wings: double-fried, tossed in a garlic-cajun seasoning-margarine mix and sprinkled with more cajun seasoning

No picture, but tonight I made bacon wrapped shrimp and mango with a nice mango habanero sauce for dipping, and some lightly sweetened coconut rice. Washed it down with a strawberry, banana, apple, and pear smoothie.

Shit was fucking delicious.

• Ground turkey with Asian stir fry and wheat grain rice
• Ribeye steak with Broccoli Normandy and white rice

If you've got a food processor with a slicing disc, have a go at chips. Easy way to use up a lot of taters. Even more so with an air fryer.

Make some pulled pork get some chives bbq sauce and shredded cheese, and you've got yourself a good side-dish. Kinda like a poutine but less french.

More air fryer stuff. A ribeye steak and baked potato.

And today, katsu chicken over rice with Bull-Dog sauce.

Is tonkatsu sauce really that good for katsu? I know it's in the name but I've been using spicy mayo shit I stole the recipe from from multiple fast food places.

They're great for frozen goyslop bites and reheating anything fried. I've also had excellent results making breakfast sausages in mine, getting the casings nice and crispy.

I still think air frying is a fucking meme but I can't deny it's use for lower-scale recipes or just dumping a bunch of fries and shit in there while I make the actual dishes.

Make sure if you're air frying thick uncooked shit like lumpia shangai on an air fryer you dip it in oil btw. I learned/remembered the hard way how fucking annoying convection ovens are about shit like that.

I like this brand. I tried making some homemade with a recipe I found online and didn't like that, though. I might try a different sauce.

I neglected this thread preparing to see my family, but once they were here, we had-
Street tacos from a truck, with cilantro and white onion as toppings. We had tongue, tripe, and al pastor.
We had chicken and poblano skewers which my husband made, and he also made street-style corn.
We had shrimp and tilapia ceviche, which one of my relatives made.
We had smoked sausage and brisket, as sandwiches. My family basically chimped out about them even though they weren't just quite as good as usual.
We're going to the airport with them in the morning and I'll make sure we stop at Whataburger.

See yall in a while once the grilled meats are out of the way, lmao.

aldi had slightly used chicken leg quarters for two bucks and change for a giant fucking bag
not two bucks and change a pound, like literally five pounds or so of dead bird ass parts for two bucks and change

did up three thighs in the instapot with a bottle of Kikkoman Special Teriyaki forget the exact name but it had actual sesame seeds and crap in the bottle and was entire dimes less per ounce than normal Kikkoman Teriyaki, water to bring it to the brim of the meat, and a knorr chicken bouillon (2 cups water style heavy duty) cube

quite nice
not super great but good for the price and then some

Pork Chop with Green Beans and Brussel Sprouts


Pot Roast Soup

 

[Harambe]

Made a beef barbacoa hash with smoked bacon for breakfast last weekend. Spiced up with diced chipotle chili, served with a poached egg, avocado, and homemade pico de gallo.


Had it with some mimosas, made it with prosecco since it's cheap and it's less dry than champagne.

 

[Blue Miaplacidus]

Usually eat the same thing every day, have been for the last 8 years but my girlfriend talked me into cooking something different today and it came out pretty good.
Marinated a 3lb top round in oil, vinegar, garlic overnight. Put it in a crock pot with smoked jalapenos, adobo sauce, garlic, onion, green peppers, and salsa verde. Left it for 8 hours until it was pulled beef. Served it on maize tortillas with shaved red onion, cilantro, sliced jalapeno, and fresh lime juice. Amazing. Would make again.

aldi had slightly used chicken leg quarters?
Like how and such as?
Genuine question, what is gently used food?

I assume it just means about to expire and marked down. Or sometimes it's just weird in some way. Like I got some super cheap boneless thighs recently I used mainly for curry and katsu and whoever cut them obviously botched the job, maybe a trainee or something, but anyway they were less than a buck a pound and tasted fine.

If you've ever watched one of those videos where some pro cuts up an entire chicken in less than a minute and tried to imitate it and ended up with a giant pile of what the fuck, it was basically that.

I moped around all day Sunday because I missed my family lmao but we had brisket sandwiches Saturday and nachos Sunday to go through the rest of the meat my husband smoked. Yesterday, I made saag paneer and homemade naan, and tonight we're probably having imitation crab flake sandwiches because my kids requested them and they're kind of good. We usually just get bolillos, split them, and fill them with crab flake seasoned with salt, pepper, and white wine vinegar, as well as red onion, mesclun mix, and pepper jack.

My husband keeps on mentioning the guacamole my brother made during the visit, we live somewhere where it's extremely common and well-done, but he somehow preferred my brother's to any he's had either made by friends from guacamole-liking cultures or restaurants, so I guess I'll be getting that recipe, lmao. It's really funny because there's barely any spics where we're from and my husband grew up surrounded by them in the neighborhoods he's lived in, so if anything, I'd have expected he'd just white-people-smile about the creation, not request for me to get the recipe.

Well I assume the chickens used them, but only slightly. They can't afford to do much leg work in those cages.

Serious answer, what AnOminous said.

 

[XYZpdq Jr.]

Yeah just coming up on the sell by date, I was just kidding about the used thing

 

[HarveySperg41]

I made Bibimbap the other day. It was probably one of the best dishes I’ve ever made.

I don't know. I assumed it was some kind of weird European practice of selling returned meat. As long as you know it passed a sniff test

I mean as long as it's gently used give it rise

A grilled cheese but made really well

A culinary journey told in two pictures and a couple of words

"Dude, what if... "


"...but huge"


I have several nights in a row made Hasselback style potatoes out of what is supposed to be the ones culled and sold as baked potatoes. Dealing with one large tater and stuffing it with garlic and butter is so much easier than a ton of small ones. Can recommend. The entire recipe is in the picture above, slice but not to the bottom, stuff thin slices of garlic and butter between each cut(the potato will open up like a fan), brush some oil on it and add salt. Breadcrumbs or cheese can also be used on top. 45-50 minutes on 200-225c. Fucking fantastic and doing one is so much easier than making a bunch of the small ones.
