food The Drunken Chef

[grantmichaels]

So ... Cigar City says that batch from way back was contaminated w/ Brettanomyces ...

Apparently if I like Brett funk, I might like it a whole lot ...

Of course, I have no idea what Brett funk tastes like because I'm not a hop head or anything ...

Anyways ... That's what dong shots are for ....

We're having our first fish and goat's weed peppers tonight ... hope they compliment the beef nicely ...

London broil, Jacard'd, and sectioned up for the tagine ...

Smells good in this hizzy ...

Need to plot something fun to cook this weekend ...

Maybe I'll take a stab at oven ribs finally, or maybe I'll try the pressure cooker fajita's I've been plotting ...

What's everyone cooking?

 

[texas blues]

Pressure cooker fajita's?

They do that sheeit in NYC!

I heard they use horse meat and mole men cook it up in caves below the subway.

Doing something differently is perhaps the strongest driving force for me ... it's a PITA often, but it's true ... I genuinely enjoy novelty.

Plah!

I'm too old and too fixed in my ways for change.

In all of my crustiness I much prefer ingnert' over differnt'.

Baked mac & cheese might be good n' all but I ain't eatin' it.

I like it creamy smooth and with no sharp pokey chingaderra's in it.

 

[grantmichaels]

This is what's cookin' ...

Seriously.

Two tone carrots are kind of cool ...

What lurks beneath?

Savory stuffs ... in other news, goat peppers are pretty interesting ... i experience them as being pretty hot, actually ...

Was good.

[Darthpepper]

Funny thing is when I realized I didn't have booze in the pic, I pulled out my vodka only to find the sammie was in my belly and not in my hand.

HAH!

That's how I roll.

 

[Chile Juju]

I'm sooooo trusting you DP!

needless to say there will be no dessert (and she didn't see the finish line, either) ...

 

[sicman]

meatloaf sandwhich,one of my favs. looking good!

 

[texas blues]

Gm I 'preciatte your thinkin' outside the box but.....

That hunk of meat looks woefully dry and overworked.

Any moisture in it didn't transfer itself to a digitally viewed dimension.

I think it needed more other stuff in it to keep it loose.

Fistfulls of shredded cheese would have been my choice as well as the addition of heaps of diced onion.

The bread isn't helping either as it looks like it's sandstone.

I love meat loaf and especially leftover meat loaf sammich's but that one doesn't speak to me.

Unlike my cast iron Black Betty which is telling me that a panini press is a soulless poser of sammich machine and that manufactured auto bots have no place in the modern mans kitchen.

Then again, WTF do I know?

I'm having a conversation with a frying pan for chris sake.

 

[Scovie]

Talking to a Frying Pan? That's the least of your worries.

It's the unpure thoughts you've had about Black Betty you should worry about.

You KNOW you've had them...

 

[texas blues]

Oh oh Black Betty...

bam-a-lam.

 

[grantmichaels]

Nah ... not dry at all ...

Both the meatloaf and the bread were cooked within an hour of assembly ... was pretty heavenly ...

I'm still full though ...

 

[SumOfMyBits]

The sandwich robots are multiplying. Who's next to make an iSandwich?

 

[grantmichaels]

We were at Michael's/BB&B yesterday and I just swung by the Le Creuset enameled CI griddle pan and weighted press flashing the price tag real quick on the way to it to make it a simple matter of pointing out that it was the less expensive option and that it had open face griddle action ... I mentioned Batter Blaster and tucked it under my arm ... the rest is history ...

Anytime I get something and it *ISN'T* the chamber sealer I want so bad, she'll be happy ... that one's going to hurt ... someday.

SoFlo's putting the word out is appreciated ... as it was w/ the pressure-cooker ...

 

[texas blues]

"Batter Blaster".

That sounds like Bear. That guy's. realm of expertise.
