    Bringing it on a Sunday right here-way to offer new opportunities with great results.
    Louisville; Rolling smoke in the neighbourhood. # 38 for the win.  Life is too short for light/lite beer!  Seems I'm livin in a transitional period.

    Plated means focusing on the artistry- the $$ shot tells the cook story.  Great $$ shot. BTW- looks like a tenderloin.  Nailed it whatever.

    Grilled a bacon wrapped jalapeño/cream cheese stuffed pork loin tonight. Also basted it in Jack Millers bbq sauce. Turned out really good.  Didn’t get a chance to take a plated pic but served it with some fresh green beans and a salad.  Haven’t cooked in a while due to life.   
    That looks European to me!  Post up in the International cook thread

    NYT New England Clam Chowder. Complete and total PITA to make - mainly for presentation purposes I assume, but damn if it isn’t about the best chowder I’ve ever had. It was s’posed to be topped with crumbled potato chips, but we had some day old cheddar focaccia that needed a home so I made croutons with it, and to be honest, I ate the potato chips. 

    Basically everything is made separately and then assembled in individual bowls:

    - potato puree with EVOO, heavy cream, and salt
    - clam broth from shucking, thickened with unflavored gelatin
    - bacon cream (cook up the bacon until crisp, turn off the heat, and pour in 1 cup heavy cream and let rest - remove the bacon and chop for garnish
    - onion jam
    - chive oil
    - recipe called for whole clams but SWMBO and I can’t stand the bellies. 


    This is dedication to craft. Sounds delicious!

    Quick bun less burger tonight for dinner with roasted green chili and Swiss cheese. 
    Love that.  Particularly having sausage as a side dish.  When I moved to Texas in 1996 and a lot of restaurants offered meat as a side (steak with a half rack of ribs or whatever) I knew it was going to be a good fit.

    Thanks, no pun intended here, but SWMBO loves sausage, so when I am grilling fast and hot, I usually try to cook some for her.  Again, insert all the jokes here.  lol

    Does she eat them the long way?
  • Chicken 2 ways. Legs and thighs with SPG and grilled direct. The breasts were butterflied, salt and pepper and then marinated overnight in balsamic vinegar, EVOO, brown sugar, 6 cloves of garlic, rosemary and thyme. The breasts were the clear winner and I’ll be using this marinade again.

  • Filet mignon on an onion blue cheese sauce, smashed salt and vinegar baby potatoes (spouse-made), and a spinach salad with tomatoes delivered by our neighbour this morning. 



    I love onions and blue cheese so how have I not had this in my life before?  I searched on a recipe so I’m going to make this later this week. Thanks for the inspiration

    I consider this just showing off on a Saturday night and I totally enjoy the presentation and finish.  Beautiful $$ shot complete with Fork for the bonus.  Uma for the closure- sweet eats.

    Dang-highlighting incredible beef cooks above.  @Foghorn- doing the state quite proud right there.  I wish I had friends like yours.  
    Way to bring it home to all.
