What did everyone cook today?
-
calldoctoday I remember days/weeks like you’re having. Never pleasant. But, the bills must be paid.
zbigjeff Yes, I have been doing it for over 45 years now & still probably have at least 10 more years to go before I can finally hang it up & I just worry about that!

calldoctoday We’ve both decided to do it OUR way for one reason or another. Stay the course and you will decide one day in the future that “OK, I’m done”. You keep making the money to support my habit.

calldoctoday I’ve got to wonder if we ever hang it up. For me it seems that it just changes from one goal to another.

Chef Well, the truth of the matter is that if I were to hang it up, then I would have more to do around the place & other projects & goals than I have working, at least for a while. I probably have at least three months of projects & maintenance alone around the place that I am behind on & since I am soooooo oooo oo …
much slower these days than I used to be (I have not figured that out yet, but it does bother me as it is not just a little bit, it is a LOT) it might be at least six months. In the mean time, I am sure I could become aware of a few more things & then maybe do some non work traveling & visiting other cultures. -
Pivodog looks like the ones I can buy at the butcher. Pretty tasty I am sure.

Chef Usually the slave driver is much happier with a cocktail in their hand when in “hang it up” mode.

Pivodog That looks very nice, just about too nice! Good Job.

Deboned some 99 cent pork butts for later sausage making.

Nice looking meat. We don’t get 99 cent pork very often in this part of the world.

I know I have more to do than I have time left on this earth. One of the strangest thing is that God keeps moving the ground further and further away…

Chef Maybe there is a reason for all that after all, a method to the madness of it all! I truly wonder some days.

cdavis I’ve made that brat with fresh and cooked ingredients. I’ve found that partially cooking the cabbage and carrot shreds seems to help with the texture. The sliced carrots came from a can of pickled jalapeños that I used on a sausage (merguez) that only needed the peppers. There was a decent amount of red onion and a small amount of purple cabbage that I chose to leave raw because cooking removes the color. It’s all about the presentation! I wish I could give specifics on amounts but so often when I come up with a brat it’s simply by eye. The first batch sold out so quick so I had to make another! The photo shows the cabbage that was sautéed in bacon grease (because bacon grease) and finished with a splash of mushroom soy sauce, green and red onion and purple cabbage. I started with 33 lbs of pork and the final weight for the batch was 46-ish. Be sure to mix until you just start to see signs of binding/protein extraction and everything should come together fine.
Joe Hell Thank you sir. I’m definitely trying this. Everything you send pictures of looks awesome. Thanks again and keep up the good work.

Grilled a flank steak for supper last. Seasoned with bourbon smoked salt and gaucho rub. I grilled it on my PK 360 over B&B Oak briquettes. Served it with a rustic chimichurri.
