Tuscan Style Summer Dinner
Options
The Cen-Tex Smoker
Posts: 22,970
seems Like Barbecue fever is in the air this week in the ATX. After watching @MNEggerandStuff get after it today I had sympathy heart pains seeing all that brisket!
Man cannot live on brisket alone so I made a little feast reminiscent of our visit to Tuscany last summer.
Tuscan style chicken: Pasture raised chicken, EVOO, salt, pepper, garlic, lemon zest
Farmer’s Market Zucchini and baby eggplant shaved, salted, grilled
Farmer’s Market arugula salad with watermelon radish, homemade lemon vinaigrette
super fresh, simple, and I would put this up against just about any meal anywhere. The only ingredients bought at a the store were the EVOO, salt, pepper.
Top: Tuscan Yardbird
Right: Arugula Salad
Bottom: grilled zucchini and baby eggplant

parking lot. I also just had $500 worth a wagyu delivered to my house by a guy in a Camry with his 12 year old daughter about an hour ago. It was originally slated for a parking Lot swap last night at the Loro dinner but he didn’t get here until this afternoon. There will be shady meat parking lot deals in my very near future.Keepin' It Weird in The ATX FBTX -

That looks really fantastic, but I can't be the only one a tad disappointed that you don't have a farm-to-table source for EVOO, salt and pepper.
