Got an ear infection so there goes my whole easter holiday of diving. What else to do? Get drunk and cook! 
Felt like baking (myself and food lol) so I made some Chilli Cheese Jalapeno Bread
First 10 min mixing was Bakers flour, pre activated yeast and water with honey.
Proofed in 32 C water for 45 minutes
Final 15 minute mix I added:
1/5th Old El Paso jar Jalapeno, roughly chopped and 2 TBS brine from same said jar
1 finely chopped Chorizo sausage
1/2 Cup Tasty cheese
1 Tbs Spicy BBQ seasoning and another 1/2 Tbs on top of the bread
1 Tbs Dried chilli
2 cloves fresh minced garlic
Proofed in 40 C water 20 minutes
Poofed, oops I mean Pippyed, dang it...proofed and ready to bake
Cooling for 20 minutes
Very yummy.

Went to Costco yesterday to get a ham and saw a big bag of little haricots verts to go along with the ham, potato onion cassarole, yams and apples along with croissants, I had too many green beans.
So I haven't made any cold canned green beans in a while.
Grabbed some Caribbean Reds out of the freezer and went to work with some HBD hab salt, pickling spice, lots of garlic, pepper corns and into the frig for a couple of weeks.
Now back to more Keystone and the rest of dinner.
Hoppy Hoppy Easter Everybody

Today as we all look at the different threads on this forum, let's think how fortunate we are to have what we do and pause to think of the people that are without the most basic of sustinance...hot peppers...amen...

Amen to that AJ. This is DC not the TD so plating/schmating, I'd vote for that in a heartbeat. I'm dying for some fresh corn and the asparagus looks exquisite

Amen AJ, and forgive me, but I ASSUMED the glass with the ice cubes had alcohol in it.
Logchief, you're basically doing a cold packed pickled green beans? Never been much for pickled things (unless it's me...
...) but always up for new things. I think sometimes people get turned off to some type of food (like pickled green beans) because they may have not tasted a good home-made pickled green bean. We're discovering tons of new things that taste so great when homemade, but the restaurant/commercial versions stink.
Cheers to all!
ps- Pauly, is the headache gone yet? XOXO

Doing them cold like that keeps them really crisp, takes at least a couple of weeks in the frig for them to get real good.
Geez where do I start??
Filled with Easter food and I come home to see all the good lookin' posts! Now I am hungry again!!
JayT - Cheesesteak - AWESOME!!!!
TB - Great lookin' mini-crab cakes! Looks delish!
DTS - Care to share the bread?
AJ - Glad to see you here! Love the meal. Kudos on the grilled asparagus!

Hey McHottie, I saw those jars of home-canned green beans for dinner a few days ago! We have a few of those in the pantry and they are the BEST!
JayT- I'm glad I saw your post as I was going to include a bottle of DuvallDave's sauce in a package coming your way. Now we can keep that jar for ourselves! Love that stuff.
WOW! What a week and weekend for Drunken Cheffery! Big bonus for AJ gracing our drunken pages. You rock! And so do the rest of y'all cheffin' drunks!
Yeah... almost as many posts as YOU have, JayT!
