So Beef And Arugula Pasta. First thing is to understand that RocketLady and my little bottle rockets cant take the heat. So I started making my own sauces. See that green bottle in teh middle back? There's 3 pounds of Habanerro Pappers in that 1 bottle. Now do you see anything wrong with that? I didn't either.
Mr Garlic meet Mr Onion. I really like how you two play so nicely together. Now some say that there is such a thing as too much garlic but they havent tasted my 100 clove chicken.
Adding a pound of 80/20 Ground Beef
And now to serve. This meal was a TOT, that's Time onto Table, of 35 minutes. Oops, it's time for another cold one. Hope you enjoyed as much as I did. Now wheres that beer?

RM....I'd say you're doin' it right! Welcome amigo to the hot blue and righteousville!
That looks like a killer dish! I see nothing wrong with anything you did. Keep it coming and thanks for sharing and welcome to the DC thread.
Good on you, Rocketman!
Thanks it really turned out good. The sour of the lemon zest and juice, the bitter of the Arugula and the hot of the Hab sauce really make for a killer combo.
History lesson to start the day. You'll like this one.
Guess what the number one morning drink was before coffee came to America.
Your ready?
It was Beer! Have a great weekend.
Interesting side note, there was no afterburner effect this morning. Hum, ingredients I used have all been used in hot dishes before except one, the Arugula. This may warrent further investigation.

Nice TB, but I'd invite some riff raff ( 
) to crash that snoot fest.

You mean some people don't drink beer in the morning?
I enjoy the best of the Old World and the New World. Coffee followed by beer for breakfast. Breakfast of champions
TB, as always those fish tacos are awesome looking! I would crash that snoot-fest to bring some real excitement to that party you mentioned. Then watch out, I'd be like the Tasmanian Devil devouring those tacos. 
I agree. But, it is good to get both alcohol and coffe in one too. Irish Coffee, Yummy!

Well RocketLady and the BottleRockets are out for a girls night out and it's just a couple of buddies, a rack of good beer about half gone and we're getting hungry. I'm thinking that since we're drinking a German style beer I should do some pork. So the menu tonight is, darn beers empty hang on.
To quote my good amigo Jay...."less talky and more piccy...chop chop!" Although I DO like your style compadre!
TB, seafood tacos look incredible as usual.....
Rocket....make wit da pics!

Sorry couldn't post last night. After dinner the guitars came out, I was on bass, and that was all she wrote. TB I'm sure you know what I mean. Ok, now for some Pics.
First here's the maditory one. Really good stuff if you've never had it.
Sorry if their a little fuzzy, taken with phone.
Had a nice Pork Tenderloin that I made a rub for like this. That's Chineese Five Spice. Super stuff if you have never tried it. I'm thinking about making a sauce based on it sometime.
Then into the cast iron for a nice sear.
Here are the winter veggies. In one are Butternut Squash, 2 Golden Delis Apples and a large sweet onion and in the other is half of a Savoy Cabbage and some Kale. Then there is s cup of good Apple Cider. Wish I still lived in Washington state sometimes.
After a good sear out comes Mr Pig and the veggies get a start.
First the apple mix goes in till the squash is fork tender.
Then the cabbage and kale go in for about 5 minutes.
Then everything goes back in for a nice apple cider bath about 20 minutes and it's time to plate.
This is Buddy and Misty. Their the rulers of anything that hits the floor and they had a good dinner last night too.
And of course dinner just isn't any good if you dont break sweat so here are my 2 current sauces. West Texas Prairie Burnner is a Hab sauce and the Hill Country Hot Sauce it a Jalapeno and Serrano sauce.
Hopefully I'll get a pepper garden in this year. I haven't been able to find a good place to get any peppers other than Orange Hab, Jalapeno's and Serranos. Occationally I can get a Scotch Bonnett but they go quickly. Hope you enjoyed as much as we did. Till next time Bon Appetit Y'all.

Looks good RM even if the pics are a little fuzzy. I'd have to say with a meal like that i would be fighting those dogs for the scraps
Almost forgot, the girls all got back about the time the guitars came out and the fire got started. They wanted something warm to drink so I made some of my special hot chocolate. It's the usual milk, cocoa, sugar and vanilla but I add Cayenne Pepper and a little Jack to it, well, not for the BottleRockets. Not old enough for that yet. Have a great weekend everyone!
