The Drunken Chef

Hey ya'll once again from the big dry ditch of Las Vegas. I had picked up some beautiful chix I wanted to deep fry but soon discovered I didn't have enough oil. Why not just drive down to the local grub store and buy it you ask? BECAUSE I WAS PISS DRUNK!! Alrighty then. I grab the bottle of Hornitos tequila and ready myself to begin the destruction. I fire up the cast iron dutch oven and just start throwing stuff in. Olive oil. Garilc. Julieanned shallot. Chix thighs. Gets a little blurry here but I somehow managed to debone the thighs without chopping off my leg but then all good cooks should be able to pull that off. The vast majority of experienced kitchen rats and riffraff cook much better after a bottle of wine or three. Those of you reading this keep that little kitchen tip in mind, especially when family from out of town is around. If the wife is chewing your ass the next day for your drunken lewd and lascivious behavior in the kitchen the previous night, then you know you must have made a helluva meal and did it right.

Continuing on, I soon missplaced my shot glass and decided to dispensed with it all together. Why should tequila have to go through a middleman anyway. Liquors quicker straight from the bottle. I discovered I had a stash of dried pequins from last season and bada bing bada boom in they went. Same with some forlorn looking button mushrooms. Whirring and stirring with a spoon in one hand and the bottle of firewater in the other, why not deglaze the pan with tequila? Excellent idea! Might as well get rid of the rest of the hab salsa I made the other day. In that goes, adios baby! Add some seasalt and cracked black pepper. Whir and stir. Taste. It tastes like burning. Nice.

Somehow during this culinary rampage I managed to take a few pics.

The beginning of the end...

Stewing in its own juices, just like me..

I can't be sure but I think I ate it with tortilla's but who can say. This morning as I looked at the devastation in the Blues Kitchen I reckoned that were I to detonate a hundred pounds of C4
in the middle of it I would only cause about $21.47 worth of damage. Mrs. Blues was not amused but and well acquainted with my late night shenanigans. Ahhh marital bliss.

Now that I have started this thread, I call on all you THP drunks, sots, and gin blossomed heathens to keep it going. Pics are mandatory and it goes without saying that rule number one is...YOU MUST BE DRUNK WHEN COOKING!!

So get the divorce papers ready, get your favorite bottle of liquid stupid and get cookin' ya'll!

Cheers, TB.
 
If I had known how nice this turned out...I would have taken pics while making it. I made home made meatballs, and mushroom sauce...and accidentally dumped a pile of bhut flakes on top...my intention was a bit less.

I ate it anyway...the flavor of the bhuts ws more overpowering than the heat...which was impressive. It made me go through my trusty rum and DP (Diet Dr. Pepper) a little faster than anticipated...glad I stocked up.

SPAGHETTI AND HEATBALLS:

"So I normally dont make it a habit to drink on a monday night.... "

and it's a good thing you've learned to accommodate to the weekly schedule and drink as necessary.



"Mind you that glass looks small but it is my 8oz bourbon tasting glass, only used it cuz I underestimated how much liquid was in the jug. "

yea pics always make everything look smaller. It's OK, we understand-


"I even took the kilbasa out of the liquid in the pan and added flour to thicken it and put the meat back in and it made quite the sauce. Not sure how I thought of that I was just kinda floating around the kitchen in a vodka induced haze."


It's because you are being assimilated into the chile pepper continuum! Don't Fight It!

Resistance is Futile!





now, let's all have a drink and CELEBRATE! :woohoo: Good eats there, Spanky~
 
LunchBox, when you gonna move up to Washington so we can come eat at your place all the time? pasta, meat, tomatoes...... :sigh:
 
Spanky that Mouse juice just sounds like a headache waiting to happen but damn good too. Bet it's great over some ice-cream or like some bread puddin like stuff. I'd kill that kilbasa.

LB - pasta fit for a King but sounds like you got it hot enough for the devil himself. Good stuff Maynard!!

Kib, the poppers looked really good.

But you have something on that plate that is AMAZING!!!

That simple avocado salad...lettuce, tomatoes, and some LARGE avocado slices with citrus juice!!!
That is one of the best flavor combinations EVER!!!!!!!

You didn't mention it because you're used to it.
Our avocado season is about to begin, and I miss them dearly. But pretty soon, I'll be slapping them on everything.
Squirt of lime juice and some salt. Pepper flakes. You get it.

The stuff I'm probably taking for granted down here!!!
 
Every time someone says that...somewhere in the world...an underprivaledged child gets his face mauled off by a bear.

If only Christian Children's Fund would provide these children with Busch Lt instead of rice and education they could fend off Bear no problem.

I agree. I mean, where are these peoples' priorities????

Rice and education has only helped one man succeed. Uncle Ben. Busch Light has helped the masses!
 
i would eat my own weight of those poppers!!!!!!
Sorry but I'm totally jumping in here, but, OMG I think I made my first picture post. New computer. Well these are some Chickin Wings with Habanero honey sauce (homemade)...
