The Count's Drunken Adventures In The Kitchen

I know we already have the drunken chef thread, but I'm going to start this anyway.  Almost anytime I snap a picture in the kitchen whisky is involved.  Don't let the beers with the plated pics fool you, I just crack one open to drink while eating since hot straight bourbon doesn't taste good with food to me.  The rest of the night is all WHISKY!!!  t didn't even know I had taken most of the pics I'm going to upload initially.  They date back to October 2015 or so and I just found them while uploading pics from the camera of a recent off-roading trip.
 
So lets start with Drunken Chicken Lo Mein…...
 

 

 

 


Next up is BBQ chicken, oven roasted potatoes and Ranch Style canned beans.  
 

 

 

 


Tostados?  I seriously do not remember making or eating these!

[The Hot Pepper]

I have to correct you. "Take the cannoli". In NY Italian, it is plural.

 

[MikeUSMC]

Had Wise Guys for lunch and supper. The cheesesteak is so good, I just added some Matouks Moruga sauce to it for heat. I got the Italian beef dipped and deconstructed to eat for supper. They gave me plenty of juice in a container and I reheard everything in the oven and added Dell Alpe Hot giardinera. Obviously it was kinda soggy with enough bourbon it was just fine.

Im seriously considering buying a quality meat slicer now. The thin cut meat makes them so different than when I partial freeze and slice them.

 

[The Hot Pepper]

Now that's a Manwich!

 

[Crispee-FL]

Ohhhhh man that makes me salivate.

 

[Guatemalan Insanity Pepper]

Leave the gun.

Take the cannolis.

why not both ?

The real drunken adventure tonight came with my wifes supper.... Hot Wing Dip.

I take 2 or 3 chicken breasts seasoned in BBQ seasoning and bake them at at 375* until done. Then shred them.

8oz of cream cheese

2 cups shredded cheddar

1 cup Franks Xtra Hot

3/4 cup Ranch dressing

Cook them all together over med/low heat until blended completely and hot.

Had the day off yesterday so I made up some gyro loafs in the early afternoon. 50/50 lamb and chuck with onion and garlic in the mix, along with salt and pepper and oregano. When we were ready to eat I sliced up what we are going to eat and broiled it.

 

[The Count]

Beef and veggie stir fry. Sirloin I thawed today, bell peppers, red peppers, broccoli, shallots and Thai peppers in a Chinese brown sauce similar to what comes served as brown sauce on a menu..... only spicy

 

[The Count]

Herb roasted chicken and mashed (instant) potatoes. Sage, rosemary, thyme, salt and pepper under and on the skin. Sprinkled with olive oil and lemon juice. Roasted over chicken broth, onions and garlic.

The gravy-ish stuff on the taters is made from the chicken backbone cooked in oil with onions, jalapeños, celery, bay leaves, chicken stock, red wine and soy sauce.

Count.
 
Not a member on this forum would deny that plate.
 
Okay.
 
Maybe some vegetarian members would.
 
But eventually...
 
They will all eat chicken.
 
If you would have added some mac and cheese to that plate...
 
Some people would freak out.
 
You know.
 
Robbing liquors stores.
 
Shop lifting Kraft cheese and noodle boxed products.
 
As it is...
 
Now they have to figure out a way to shop lift whole chickens.
 
Because....
 
Some of us would rather break the law and go to jail.
 
Just to have some of that chicken!
 
 
Have mercy!

Im gonna be real honest...... this is my first roasted chicken...... ever. Im not a fan of ANY chicken casserole, with the the exception of my cousins chicken spaghetti. So this was pushing the limits of my chicken cooked in the oven appetite. And it was really good. My wife now wants this instead of turkey for this years Thanksgiving
