Appetizers then Cornish game hens over rice. Poultry cooked in the wood oven. Rice cooked in the wok on the Mini Max.

Coleman, Texas
Large BGE & Mini Max for the wok. A few old camp Dutch ovens and a wood fired oven. LSG 24” cabinet offset smoker. There are a few paella pans and a Patagonia cross in the barn. A curing chamber for bacterial transformation of meats...
"Bourbon slushies. Sure you can cook on the BGE without them, but why would you?"

@Foghorn and @Battleborn - somehow my "off the chain steaks pass" failed to deliver your goods. Dang- That is bringing it home across the board. Way to appreciate those steaks.
I will admit that each of those outcomes deserves separate acknowledgement but it is late (EST).

That's the best looking stew I've seen in a while @fishlessman.
And, I dig how the pic of the empty bottle is blurry. Likely because the bottle is empty

I've wheeled back a few times to look at this pic again. Lovely presentation, colors, and variety in that one shot. Raichlen's gonna steal, for sure!SciAggie said:Appetizers then Cornish game hens over rice. Poultry cooked in the wood oven. Rice cooked in the wok on the Mini Max.

@caliking I love this rice dish. Cook wild rice ahead. Then caramelize sweet potatoes or butternut squash. Stir in kale and cook a bit - then add the rice. On it goes a mustard/maple syrup vinaigrette dressing.Cornish game hens were 5 for $10 at the store so they got the nod. That was a better choice than select grade ribeyes for $14.99 pound...

Here’s the rice recipe:

the recipe i loosley followed called for 2 cups cognac, the bottle was two cups. who writes a recipe that way. im thinking whoever wrote the recipe never cooked it. so many changes, put 9 quarts of ingredients in a 7 quart dutch, add 2 cups cognac, if cooking in a shallow pan tilt pan over flame and light cognac

Made an Apple Crisp in cast iron on the mini-max. My sister and I had it over ice cream as our dessert.

I agree. Every recipe needs to start with "make sure the cook is well marinated...". Mine do.fishlessman said:caliking said:That's the best looking stew I've seen in a while @fishlessman.

The princess comes home today! 7 semesters down - 1 to go. Celebrating with a chicken Parmesan and rigatoni dinner. A very fond memory from my childhood - it's winter, after school playing football with my buddies, coming home just after dark and opening the back door into the kitchen - the wonderful warm smell of my mom's sauce simmering... I'm giving that gift to my daughter tonight.

Caliqueen chef’d up miso-glazed salmon, plated up with San Francisco-style Vietnamese garlic noodles.
Damn tasty, but we’ve all got major garlic breath now

@caliking: Great looking plate. I take all the garlic I can get, so will have to look up those noodles. Please do share if you have a solid recipe on hand.

Stumbled upon this a week ago, but haven't been able to get them out of my head. Still in development (2 tries this week), so I don't have a go-to recipe yet, but these are the sources I recall:GrateEggspectations said:@caliking: Great looking plate.

The Kenji video was hard to watch... the camera work, the name dropping, etc. Chef John's version didn't include brown sugar (better with brown sugar IMO), but his videos are fun. Recipe-wise, I probably stuck closer to Flo Lum's.
Moar garlic. And bucatini, because I like how sauce gets all up in it. Haven't had Maggi sauce in the pantry for years, but will probably get some soon.#1 LBGE December 2012 • #2 SBGE February 2013 • #3 Mini May 2013A happy BGE family in Houston, TX. -
