March 20, 20205 yr damn, picadillo sounds good. and that looks great. do you have a recipe you use for that, or is it a dish you sort of eyeball and make as you go? Eyeballed it. But this was the rough recipe...Brown an onion, bell pepper, a carrot, a celery stalk, and 1 lbs ground beef. Add 3 cloves of garlic and a couple of tomatoes. 1 tsp Chipotle powder, 1/2tsp cumin, salt, black pepper, 1 tsp Mexican oregano, and 2 bay leaves to season. Add a cup of beef or chicken stock. 2 diced potatoes. Simmer covered for 30 min. Adjust seasoning.

March 21, 20205 yr Popular Post HEB has some tri-tips so I cooked one offset with cherry wood and then seared at the end. Pulled a bunch of carrots from our garden. Glazed em with bourbon and honey and made a chimichurri with the carrot greens. Also grilled some broccoli.

March 25, 20205 yr Popular Post Turning lead into gold. 24 hour sous vide eye of round roast made into French dip sandwiches with sautéed onions, provolone, and pub style horseradish. Au jus is the filtered braising liquid (wine and beef broth plus drippings). 10/10, will make again. Can’t wait to find these fuckers again on super sale at H-E-B.
March 25, 20205 yr Asking for friend... Is it wrong to put a whole head/ knob of roasted garlic in a pot of homemade red sauce and meatballs? I put it in there, along with the other usual accompaniments: sauteed shrooms, peppers, and onion, basil, red pepper, and oregano... and caught hell after I told them how much I used. Now mind you, they loved the fucking sauce; but asked me when the vampires were coming too.

I say if you like garlic, use as much as you want. And the roasted garlic adds a nice flavor. But you may be Dutch-ovening your wife all night.

True story - my wife and I almost broke up one night after I ate about a head of garlic that had been cooked in the crawfish boil. That shit tasted so good, but I legit thought I was going to die the night. If you stuck me with a pin, there would be nothing left of me but a pile of shitty skin. And the smell... hands down, the worst farts of my life. Like rotten garlic pranced through a field of dog shit. If the gas didn't kill me, I was pretty sure she would. The smell woke her from a dead sleep a few times that night. I've never felt so much shame and regret.

Gassy garlic gastronomy is good food.

March 26, 20205 yr 10 hours ago, Tailgate said: Would you mind sharing this recipe? Looks delicious. Would devour. here you go 2 tablespoons baharat spice blend ** 2 teaspoons ground sumac 1 teaspoon ground cumin 1 teaspoon ground coriander 3 large preserved lemons, flesh scooped out and rinds torn up 3 garlic cloves, crushed 1 3/4 cups chicken stock 3 tablespoons olive oil 1 teaspoon sea salt A few grinds black pepper ~3 lbs bone-in skin-on chicken large red onion thinly sliced green olives In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the baharat, sumac, cumin, coriander, preserved lemon rinds, garlic, chicken stock, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Seal the bag and gently massage everything together. Open the bag and toss in the chicken thighs and onions, reseal, and massage again to fully coat the chicken. Toss the bag in the fridge for at least 2 hours but preferably overnight to marinate, turning the bag several times Preheat the oven to 400°F . Dump the chicken and the marinade in a large roasting pan and arrange the chicken, skin side up, on top of the onions, add olives in between chicken pieces. Roast until the chicken is golden brown and the juices run clear, ~50 minutes. ** I have baharat from a spice shop, but here are a couple recipes for making your own: https://www.food.com/recipe/baharat-spice-blend-224763 https://jugglingthyme.com/baharat-spice-mix/

March 26, 20205 yr I had a similar garlic experience when I was served a “garlic chicken rice bowl” at a local sports bar some years ago. Only half way through dis I realize half of the tender delicious chicken pieces were lightly roasted garlic cloves. shame and regret is correct. Had garlic flavor in my mouth for few days and slept on couch out of compassion for my wife. Came home from work the first night to the stale lingering odor my previous nights effort.
March 26, 20205 yr Wagyu ribeye from B&B Butchers. Berg hospitality has been very generous with charity work in Houston so I’m happy to help him out in my own small way. He’s having a bbq benefit at the restaurant this Saturday to help his workers. Betcha his que is excellent - looking forward to trying it.

Drop about a half bottle of Chianti Classico and it’s another level.
March 27, 20205 yr Garlic. Whatever the recipe calls for double it at least. You can’t go wrong. Pasta. Salt your water when it’s boiling and make it as salty as the ocean. I’m making bolognese stuffed ravioli on Sunday. I’m undecided about the sauce but I’m leaning towards a basil cream, a roasted garlic garlic pasta sauce or a browned butter sauce. Probably the browned butter sauce because I don’t want to overpower the ravioli filling. The filling should be the star of the show. Edited March 27, 20205 yr by VABuckeye
March 27, 20205 yr The filling should be the star of the show. I keep trying to tell my wife that. She doesn’t seem to agree.
