TexasAg1969 Posted May 2, 2021 Report Share Posted May 2, 2021 For dinner tonight baked yucca fries with baked whole chicken today. May finally open a red tempranillo from Spain in honor of poor Nero who missed the draft. Never got around to opening that other one for draft day. Too busy looking at picks being made by each team. Jets, Jets, Jets seemed to help themselves the most with good players in places they needed help for the new QB. Of course Browns did very well too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An old favorite that I might have posted a few years back for a budget friendly meal. Sometimes simple is best...like here we've got fresh green beans and red potatoes boiled up with a little salt pork. STEAMIN' TATES 'n' BEANS is a Southern classic that combines great flavor with ease -- our favorite combo! From Mr Food. SERVES. 6. COOK TIME. 45.

Place potatoes on top and sprinkle with salt. Cover loosely and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low and simmer 30 to 35 minutes, or until potatoes and beans are tender. Serve in bowls with broth. Notes Three slices of raw bacon will work just as well as salt pork. In the South, they call the broth "pot liquor" and serve it with plenty of cornbread for dunking.

jcam222 Posted May 4, 2021 Report Share Posted May 4, 2021 Here’s some food porn from the weekend for you. I smoked 55 lbs of turkey breast this past weekend. Did them with cherry wood , half with savory rub and half bbq rub. Time to use some creatively. At Thanksgiving we always enjoy a sausage stuffing with turkey and gravy. Here is that as a deconstructed stuffing sandwich. Construction is savory sage French toast, caramelized onions, rosemary Gouda , more French toast, smoked turkey, rich creamy keto poultry gravy and topped with another savory French toast. It’s a knife and fork sandwich I’ll name it Myles Standwich 😂 What this lacks in presentation is outweighed by insane flavors. The savory sage French toast with the buttery caramelized onion and thin sausage patty nail the flavor and mouthfeel of the stuffing and the turkey and “gravy” is the bomb. The French toast is made with Aunt Millies 1 net carb wheat bread. I do the gravy with an almond flour rue, heavy cream , cream cheese and Minors chicken stock concentrate. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After consulting with the nurse here who also occasionally has a similar problem she has an Rx for the full strength Prilosec (also available OTC in lesser strength). She also watches her diet and extra spicy foods. If you suspect an ulcer please get it checked out ASAP for a better diagnosis.

My nephew who regularly posts his culinary creations posted his tempura dandelions... We got into a discussion- and you had better not get any of the green stuff underneath the petals into your creation- like the leaves, they're not meant for human consumption.

calfoxwc Posted May 12, 2021 Report Share Posted May 12, 2021 el wrongo. The stems are bitter, just not tasty to eat. The green part underneath the yellow blossoms hold the petals together. If you cut off the green part, you have petals. You fry up the blossoms whole, just not the stems. Early in the year, the roots make good coffee. Later on, you can mix chicory roots with them (roasted and ground), and make coffee that isn't too bitter. You do cut off the green part as much as possible to make the dandelion jelly. Our friends rave about it. But the wild blackberry jam is absolutely amazing. btw, another thing I'm going to do this spring/summer, is make birch beer and try it. https://renegadebrewing.com/birch-beer-recipe/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least the domestic stuff isn't going to set you back $250 bucks a pound... Absolutely true, caveat emptor. Caveat emptor is Latin for "Let the buyer beware". It has become a proverb in English. Generally, caveat emptor is the contract law principle that controls the sale of real property after the date of closing, but may also apply to sales of other goods. Reminds me of when people go to the Caribbean or Canada and buy "genuine Cuban cigars" and end up buying very expensive junk cigars. Same with beef that people try to push as USDA PRIME which is not or on sale for $4.89/lb. I know my beef -but- wouldn't know what "American Kobe" would really look like or cost. When in doubt go to a good meat store or trusted butcher. Now will I try it.....I might if I liked what I personally heard from our butcher.

mjp28 Posted May 17, 2021 Author Report Share Posted May 17, 2021 Who doesn't love CRISPY BUTTERMILK ONION RINGS ? One of our favorites, restaurant taste at home ! Great too for any GAMEDAY or late night munchies mmmm-mmmm . SERVES 6 PREP TIME (including soak time) 30 MINUTES. COOK TIME 10. MINUTES. https://www.mrfood.com/Vegetables/Crispy-Buttermilk-Onion-Rings Ever wonder how the restaurants make their onion rings so crispy-special? With our recipe for Crispy Buttermilk Onion Rings, you can too! Now, all you need to figure out is what you'll be dipping 'em into! Any suggestions ? What You'll Need 2 Spanish-type onions. (Vadalias are nice.) 3 cups buttermilk 1 cup all-purpose flour 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper 1 tablespoon vegetable oil 1 teaspoon lemon juice 1 egg, beaten 2/3 cup water 1 cup vegetable oil for frying What to Do Peel onions and cut into 1/3-inch slices; separate into rings. Pour buttermilk into a large bowl; add onion rings and soak 30 minutes. In another large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, cayenne pepper, 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, the lemon juice, egg, and water; stir until smooth. In a large skillet over medium-high heat, heat 1-inch of oil until hot but not smoking. Remove onion rings from buttermilk and dip into batter mixture, then place in skillet and fry until golden brown, turning to brown evenly on both sides. Drain onion rings on paper towels. Notes, and what about dipping sauce ? Horsey, cocktail, honey mustard, ketchup or just plain. If your onions are small, use 4. These rings come out crunchiest when made in an electric skillet, because it's easier to keep the oil at a consistent temperature. Looking for more recipes with buttermilk? Our Best Buttermilk Recipes: 12 Recipes with Buttermilk can help you! The nutrition provided for this recipe is an estimate. The ingredients used for breading and frying were measured both at the beginning and end of the recipe process.
