    Beans, tomato and carrots are all from the organic farm. Cabbage is from the store.

    Was pretty sure on the beans and tomato, but don’t want to be presumptuous. So much better than store bought.

    We don’t grow vegetables, but we’re lucky to have generous neighbours who often leave deliveries on our doorstep. Some pretty great people out there.

    Ah, I was wondering what those things were mixed in with the green beans; looked like pasta to me.

    Elote soup.  Did clam chowder last night, which was a miss, so trying something new tonight.  Not sure what the fam will think since there is no meat.  (I did use bacon fat and a dash of chicken stock just so people don’t think I went vegan)

    Elote soup was a bust (feedback was, yeah this is “meh” it has texture like baby food).  Two nights in a row.  Getting tired of cooking at the moment. My family likes roughly 4 different meals.

    I’m like you. Tired of the same five meals on repeat. I venture out. Sometimes I’m the only eater. Annoying. Can’t stand fast food

    MSM after 11-day cure and 16-hr smoke. Ready for steaming any day/time.

    That is the biggest hunk of mechanically separated meat (MSM) I have seen.  It looks way better than any chicken nugget I have ever seen.

    Yes sir! My plan was to do bourbon glaze with pecans but I was limited with time. I did want to try the hot honey as several different recipes called for honey. The hot honey was a substitute for the cayenne that I usually add. The hot honey is a keeper.

    did Toad In The Hole - adapted from this cookbook passed down from my great grandmother:



    and roasted some whole onions on the grill rings sauced up with "House of Q" Sugar and Spice for the last 20 min.





    TBH, the onions could have been done more, or at a higher heat - they still had a bit of tang and not enough caramelizing. The Toad in the hole was inhaled by us. That 2.5L french white lasted about 14 minutes...
    I had to google Toad in the Hole.  Thanks for posting that.  It could be a standalone thread.

    Not often you find an appealing use of lambs kidney!

    Mrs. Beeton did not specify the meat to be used.  I did not use lambs kidney - but I do remember mom making steak and kidney pie when I was a kid. interesting chew.

    Hot dogs on the Weber gasser. 

    Don’t judge me, I came home to a clogged washer drain and had that to deal with after work.

    Been up since well before dawn for a 9# butt.  

    Pretty pedestrian but that’s about all I’ve done recently.  Ribs, steaks, blah blah…

    Tried making a French omelette.  Presentation not so great, but flavors and texture are great.  Need a proper non-stick pan I think.
