Bear's Hangover Favorite
This was back in the day, but Bear was a real party animal, if you can believe it.
One day he woke up out of a drunken stupor nailed inside a crate on a cargo train in Mexico.
Obvious to the policia, he was a victim of a frat prank from across the boarder... and they took pity on him, shaking with his DT's from alcohol withdrawal, but he was so funny and cute, they just had to call their grandma's. And they took him in as one of their own.
The only thing he had with him was a bottle of red wine that he was still clutching. They took it and made, what Bear proclaims, the BEST MEAL EVER. Not my words, but he'd punch me in the face with his bear-like fist if I argued with him about that.
Here it is:
Tamales
1 cup red wine dumped in a slow cooker with short ribs dusted with red pepper, onion powder, garlic powder, and a pinch or two of Kosher salt. <-- Set for 6 hours on high.
Masa is creamed corn motorboated and about 1 1/2 cups of Panko. Let sit for an hour.
Spread the masa on the pre-soaked corn husk, add some now shredded beef and some colbyjack. Then steam for ~ 1 hr. Money.
Unwrap and place that on some Moros y Christianos [black beans and rice] and top it with some fresh Pico de Gallo + sour cream.... according to Bear, nothing better.
Pico de Gallo:
Diced tomatoes, finely chopped sweet onion, finely chopped jalapeno, garlic powder, fresh cilantro, lime juice, and some salt. Simple as that.
