I don’t think I have ever seen boneless skinless drumstick medallions before. 

I had no idea that’s what they were until you now mentioned it😂😂So much for reading the label. Funny thing is they looked just like thighs when I put into the marinade 

They were definitely boneless thighs. Wrongly labeled as drumstick medallions

Chili con Carne.

A quick and humble tuna melt. @weberwho knows what’s goin’ on in the bottom right. Also, a homemade spinach salad.

Letting the kids watch Home Alone in anticipation of Christmas.

Definitely a sum is better than the whole. Goes to show you do not need 1000 fancy ingredients to make a good dish.  Careful preparation and layering those few ingredients make all
the difference.

That chili was the basis for the tweaked version that I made a couple weeks ago. I screwed up the process in a few places and it was still delicious.

Last night's pedestrian family dinner. Off to a good start...


Must be the lighting, came out way too reddish...

SWMBO tried a new dish, steamed buttercup squash with warm garlic ghee dressing, pretty good...

@Canugghead - that top pic is just showing off.  Well deserved!
Beyond that- the pedestrians had no clue about how well they were eating.  As always a true gourmet delight.

@lousubcap Thanks, just sharing my excitement similar to someone unzipping a charcoal bag with a single pull

"How many grandkids do you have?"
"Well, let's see... We need 4 racks now to feed 'em all..."

 A feast,  as usual! The squash dish sounds good. Will have to try it.

The oldest is not even five, wait till they get older, haha. I knew any half decent dish with garlic is right up your alley, butter will be good but we have someone with lactose intolerance.

Salmon on the plank 

lousubcap

Yes sir.  Grilled lemons really is a flavour (nod) enhancer.  Righteous looking salmon as well.

Took some smoked chicken lollipops to the office luncheon today. Glazed with a mix of cherry coke, sweet baby rays and chipotle seasoning.  Decent combination.

Farkin' beautiful!!

I have questions:
- did you remove the netting prior to cooking? Or, is it ok to smoke it with the netting on?
- seeing that its a spiral cut ham, did it dry out to any extent? I'm always in two minds, re whether to do a non-spiral cut vs. spiral cut,  ham on the egg. 

Ozzie_Isaac

Chicken and French fries.  Tried some fried chicken strips earlier today so had some oil and extra potatoes.

There was no netting on the ham. I started it flat for the first 90 min and the flipped it on its side and rotated it while basting it with a glaze. The pieces started to open up which allowed the glaze to get deeper into the slices. It is delicious and I’m planning to have a ham, egg, and cheese biscuit in the morning.

Never closed the loop on yesterday’s meal. Plus, more posts pads my count. 

Pepper stout beef, Guinness cheddar sauce, and a blueberry cake for dessert. Not pictured was a salad. The beef was served on buns.

@GrateEggspectations - i was wondering what happened to that cook   Looks most excellent! And, I've got my eye on that blueberry cake at the back.

@GrateEggspectations. That’s a spectacular spread 😋
