Better half made a great squash soup from scratch. 

Nice, perfect for cool weather. Did you help with chopping up the squash?

My better half also made squash soup yesterday, with pork bones, dried fish maw and goji berries. Chopping the hard skinned kabocha was not fun!

Nailed my contribution. I was called upon to halve the squash. 

Was made in the Vitamix. Your wife’s recipe sounds much more involved.

Thanks, all. 

On deck. Sugared pork buns for tonight.

@GrateEggspectations - sugared pork buns - what sorcery is this?!?!?  That might need its own thread!

johnmitchell

Agree with John ^^^^^^

I may have to see how they turn out first. 🙃 Game time decision. My only hope is that they’re not out of step with @Canugghead’s wife’s epic buns. 

Was looking for something to do with pork shoulder other than pulled pork, so did some searching and am going out on a limb. Interestingly, the shoulder is cut into 1” tranches.

You misspelled “chili”, according to recent posts. Looks great. And I love the approach of a meal prepared well ahead of time.

I love everything about this, but seeing your spices in the background, I did have the thought that this might work well sprinkled with Old Bay too!

Roast pork ingredients look great, I may just make the roast pork without the buns.
Baked vs. Steamed, can't wait to see your master baking results!

Didn’t get dinner shots, but kids’ lunches are tee’d up.

Vegetable Chili.  No beans for you purists.

Those look amazing.  Details on the sauce and what made them Asian if you don't mind me asking?  Always looking for new ways to try ribs.
