food The Drunken Chef

Mac n Cheese is always a drunken win! Thats a good siding for the chili too I bet.

I like to make my chili WITH BEANS and scoop that shit on some noodles and cover it with cheese and ohh my lort is it the goodness. Yours is sort of that concept.
 
I'll likely never make chili w/ beans again - I used to not ever ...

I have never really liked pasty-stuff filled foods ... lima's ... pea's ... bean's ... undercooked french fry's ... I just don't like that texture in food ...

I grew to incorporate beans for things "diet" minded ... but I'm not sure I believe those maxims at this point, and I know my lower GI tract would prefer not to have to deal w/ the beans at the same time as all the meat and dairy and super hot's ...

That was the last of the round of chili I PC'd a couple of months ago, and the next batch w/ be sans beans fo shizzle ...

I do like the combo of the beef w/ the smoked cubes of shoulder though, that's def getting repeated, as is being pressure-cooked ...

this makes me want to do it ... that or PC some more boston butt ...

JHP's pork sammie's w/ that slaw haunt me ...
 
Was a DC night.

a celebration of heat is in order ... what to do, what to do ...
 
D and I are laughing at the thought of simultaneously recording video of each other eating half of it ... but it's not happening.

you know you've done a lot of cad work when you start dreaming about the silver cord from OOB experiences and get jealous of how your puppy can stretch out ...

Please God, don't tell me you mixed Cigar City with Mt Dew!

I did a little drunken cheffery the other night. I owe TB a couple so, here Big Fella. Have a fresh caught King Salmon from NY State. I gave it a spicy salmon rub and grilled it on a cedar plank. I used to have some oak planks like this that I liked better, but I am all out of them at the moment.

Camera work got a little shotty as I got a little :drunk: Man is fresh salmon awesome. I know it was just King and not Coho or Sockeye, but just the same.
 
Whatdya' mean "its just king salmon"???

It's called that because it IS KING!

In your face and meaty and my favorite fish on the grill.

I ain't much of a fan of using cedar or any other woods for grilling but that looks dadgum guud!

I hope you saved me some.

: spits out mouthful of cockroaches :
 
My buddy and some friends went to some river that separated NY and Ontario and caught about 50 of em on fly rods. King and Coho. They brought 18 home. He brought a big one in to the club I work at, and cooked it up for everyone for breakfast Sunday. He cut it into steaks and soaked them in Italian dressing until they were ordered. he served them with eggs and fried potatoes. Man that was one of the best breakfasts EVER! I skipped the eggs, but the salmon and potatoes were rockin'
 
Jay you would fall in love with Alaskan living.

That breakfast you described is a treat for you and nowadays for me as well but pretty much the norm anywhere in Alaska.

All the salmon, caribou and moose you can eat any time.

Not to mention the halibut, cod, and king crab.

My freezer was always full.

I need a tissue.

I'm getting verklempt.
 
Heather has a cousin that lives in Anchorage. I have a free place to say anytime I want. Her husband also said he'd take me salmon fishing. This WILL happen someday when the little one is older.

I was very surprised when they told me that they have no deer in AK.

Uhm....they DO have deer in Alaska.

Moose and caribou are both members of the deer family.

Roosevelt elk, also a large deer family member, are on Afognak and Raspberry Isles.

Kodiak and Montegue Island have Sitka Blacktail.

There's also Sitka's in SE Alaska as well.

Ain't no shortage of meat up there.

Careful though if you visit.

You may never want to leave.

I love Texas but I 'shore do miss Alaska.
 
Ok, maybe members of the deer family but not whitetails or muleys like I am used to. I know I would love Alaska, but I also love the beaches and warm weather here in the Summer too.

Its like nuthin' on this earth. Stare the wolf in the eye, Feel the power of the bear, Moose will be in front of you but will not be found, Caribou will eat more food under snow that you under holding lights at restaurant, Wanna, really catch kings? Swim with the Orka. Be not afraid to venture into the unknown, it is civilized there, No bears or wolves screw themselves over for a percentage there. Bear only wants your sammich. Beware of wolverine, He will still your fish and meat and you will hunger.

Let live all rainbow. They are the tastiest of all fishes. But Dolly Varden dresses better so let them go.

I need a pillow.

Ambrien train is pullin' in....

There is so much awesomeness in this, I can't even tell where the cord goes! Is that Star Wars looking device plugged in? What does it do? The lightsaber on top of a thermal upside down coffee cup looking contraption. You guys down there are hoarding all of the good kitchen gadgets!!!!
 
Not that device, my glasses aren't THAT old ;) I'm talking about the secret agent special to the left of the Worcestershire.
Btw that Spaetzle press could probably juice 25 limes at a time! :cheers:
