What Are You Chef-ing Tonight, Dr?

Tried a new IP recipe for Spanish beef, red pepper, and paprika stew.  Top is the cut up chuckie with sautéed aromatics.  Middle is the aromatics being sautéed; shallot, garlic cloves, tomato, roasted red pepper, pancetta, paprika, and fresh rosemary.  Bottom is the finished stew over grits.

Smoked turkey finished product, I was pleasantly surprised how good this was. I wasn’t able to get a smoke ring since it cooked faster than I had anticipated. Bonus fork!

That looks amazing, maybe you did, but a wild bird could use a good brine. I’m jealous of that.

Nothing special, just figuring out the new toy. Teriyaki Chicken.

No picture, but don’t call me a liar…you see since it was quite cold here in central Illinois on this 30th day of April I fixed us a big ol’ pot of chili

Just another tri tip. Smoked with oak and a bit of mesquite. Went on part frozen. Smoked at 200 to 220F for a couple hours then char seared on the drop spider.

Thank you @Battleborn. I did not do a traditional brine, but will try that next time. I soaked it in milk overnight to pull out any blood I had missed in trimming. I guess more out of habit, I do that with my duck, dove, goose and pheasant meat.

Sirloin and cheddar potato au gratin. Steak was SV from frozen at 133.5° for one hour and thirty minutes then torched.

Delivered to us with no prior notice. Chef’d by S-I-L. Spicy vegetable soup and homemade sourdough.

Better to be lucky than good right there.  Soup looks great and that bread...off the chart. 

Canugghead

Perfect wet, cool night for soup, swmbo made vegetable soup with assorted brisket and sous vide beef juice from the freezer, not as nice nor pic worthy as @GrateEggspectations' SIL's though.

That pork agrodolce was unreal.  And very different from the usual pork shoulder recipes.  Highly recommend.  With whipped mashed potatoes, restaurant quality.

1/3 pound burger . Super melted cheddar. Shredded lettuce. Sauce made with Mayo and Japanese BBQ . It tastes like yum yum sauce but extra . And then the fried egg. All on a toasted bun.

lousubcap

@texaswig great burger but that is definitely a Texas sized egg.  Burger and a fried egg, what a great pairing!

texaswig

@lousubcap thanks. Homegrown eggs too. I got a few friends that always make sure I stay stocked up with plenty of eggs.

Has Chef John ever put out a loser? No.*




*Not that I have tried every one of his 23,678 recipes.
