What did everyone cook today?
-
I made ‘potsticker’ brats this morning…all the goods you might find in a potsticker stuffed into a casing.
I used pork, cabbage, green onion, red onion, carrots, ginger, garlic, crushed red pepper, sesame sees, mushroom soy sauce and Chinese five spice.
I ran the pork through the grinder once before adding all of the produce and dry ingredients and running a second time followed by an addition of water and soy.
The mix works well as stand alone brat or removed from the casing and used as a pot sticker filling.
Joe Hell oh man that looks good
-
YooperDog - Any results?
lkrfletcher we both have lost 10lbs. Yesterday was cheat day, a slice of pizza. Back to the meal plan today for another 30 days. It is going to be challenging with a lot birthday’s, traveling, company and July 4th festivities. Putting together a plan of action/meals to get through it all. It is going to be busy.

Joe Hell Holy Benwah!!! I don’t have enough freezer space for all these crazy sausages. Man they look good and tasty.

KETO SPAGHETTI.
Made a sugar free zero carb sauce with zoodles for supper.
lkrfletcher The spaghetti and dessert look great. Even my wife said she would be willing to give this a go. It takes some consistency to stay on track, but like establishing a habit good or bad it relies on being consistent.

YooperDog It certainly helps to have your spouse on board with any kind of eating change. Tough to do it alone if other people in the household are eating stuff your not allowing yourself to have. That’s great you can do it together.

The eye is on the plate for dinner and the coffee beans are cooling from the smoke experiment. Will grind them tomorrow morning to see if they got some some this time.

Jonesy yes it helps and since there is only the two of us at home now meal planning is a little simpler.

Joe Hell that looks great. Did you put your veggies in fresh or did you have to saute them or something?

The smoked coffee experiment two didn’t work out either. Little to no smoke flavor in the coffee. I can barely pick it out, coffee is such an assertive flavor it easily overpowers the smoke since it is roasted as well. The next experiment with smoking coffee may be roasting the coffee on the smoker. It will require a whole lot more attention for that process as anyone who roasts their own coffee knows. I use a fluid bed roaster here at home, so it’s basically pour the coffee in the roaster, set what roasting time I want and push the button and just keep an on it it near the end for my color. Open roasting over a heat source is a whole lot different story, got to keep things moving, listen to the product and watch for the color, then move it off the heat and cool as fast as possible when done.

YooperDog not sure if you have a papa Murphy’s near you but they offer a keto pizza. Basically just doesn’t have the crust. I also have an Italian restaurant in town that has keto pizza that has a cauliflower crust. It’s very good

YooperDog lkrfletcher keto is a life change, once you do it you can never go back and expect to stay with the weight loss. You may be able to cheat a little more but really once you make the change you don’t really miss and crave the old foods anymore. Not eating and drinking the carbs, sugars and portion control is the key. It was very successful for me, notice how I said “was”. Yes I need to do it again and stay on it. It’s hard since neither my wife or I enjoy to cook. As well as heat up the house in the summer time such as now. 90* we don’t feel like doing nothing.

johnsbrewhouse Well, your test again proves that smoking coffee beans is a negative adventure. Yep, now we move onto other pieces of nature. Thanks for validating that process once again.

twilliams In addition, cauliflower steaks are always an option. It just takes some herbs and spices to bring that bland product to any life. Just made cabbage and cauliflower steaks with cumin, garlic, Hungarian pap, medium and hot chili powder with a bit of sherry vinegar into a paste. Made the veggies have a taste. Good luck with all of your creations.

zbigjeff Just going to run the one last experiment by roasting the beans on the smoker completely, Going to wait to do this, since it will rely on me tending to the beans instead of the roaster.

Ah man. Seemed like it may have had potential to be good. Thanks for the experiment. -

johnsbrewhouse Crossing the “T’s” and dotting the “I’s” is a good thing. Wish you the luck of the Irish.
