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!

most recipes for it call for that , although some just use American .  I would definitely want some Maui onions on there too.

Like an open face hot beef sandwich with a runny egg on top. Sounds good. I could handle swiss on that too, but pineapple not so much, unless you changed to pork patty and gravy.

That moco loco looks awesome. I think Im gonna have to give that a try.

Made Day After Turkey Day Sandwiches the other day. Dont know why, but I was craving these things, which are actually my wifes creation made with Thanksgiving leftovers. It looks crazy but actually tastes great.

I'm all about crazy.
 
My dear sweet wife would also make that sandwich.
 
Only she refuses to eat leftovers about 90% of the time.
 
She'd cook a whole turkey.
 
With all the fixin's .
 
And gravy!
 
Just to make that sandwich.
 
Eat it.
 
And throw ever 'thang away afterwards.
 
I love mrs. blues like I love sinning.
 
Because sinning feels good!
 
But I'm crazy.
 
That way.

Made fried pork chops and steamed corn on the Cobb chunks. Chops were coated in a Cajun style seasoning mix then coated in flour.

Bought a pair of thick porterhouse steaks on Saturday. I seared it in the grill pan then finished it in the oven while the potatoes were finishing roasting. The wife has been on a corn kick, so more steamed corn on the cob.

BBQ brisket Frito pies seem to be a common menu item here in the Texas Hill Country. They usually have bbq style pinto beans on them as well. I made some with leftovers from our favorite bbq joint here in town and strained homemade charro beans.

No hot sauce was on it, just bbq sauce. The cheese was yellow American.

These were from a big bag of Fritos, not the individual ones. And I dont own a spork

I googled burrito bowl, why would someone do that? One flour tortilla isnt gonna make you fat.....

More turkey sandwiches for supper tonight. Used a spicy mustard based bbq sauce instead of gravy, with pickles, Dukes mayo and canned cranberry sauce on toasted white bread.

 

[The Hot Pepper]

That looks good 'cept that gelled canned fabrication lol!!!!!

 

[Rajun Gardener]

Whatcha talkin bout THP? That's the real stuff we all grew on up and it last for years in the cabinet. 

 

[The Hot Pepper]

I actually grew up buying the bag of ocean spray cranberries, adding sugar, orange juice, and lemon zest... call me a snob lol...

I was very picky about textures as a child. My mashed potatoes had to be completely smooth and lump-less for example. So my my Granny would make instant potatoes along with her homemade ones. I didnt like crunchy veggies, so shes warm me up a can of Veg-All, which is all nice and mushy. Same thing applied to cranberry sauce, it had to be smooth. So shed open a can just for me, and Id eat it like candy.

I made pulled pork sandwiches tonight. The pork butt is cooked in the crock pot, or a Dutch oven. Homemade pickled red onions, pickle slices and mustard finish them off.

 

[Rajun Gardener]

That slaw fells left out begging to be on that sandwich, North Carolina style topped with vinegar based BBQ sauce.
 
Now I'm hungry for pulled pork!!!
