What did everyone cook today?
-
ND Mike You can really use the moisture up that way, I was in Minnesota the first of August and everyone was taking their boats off the lake because it was so low.
-
zbigjeff yep…that is what I smelled walking out of the bedroom before I got the coffee going.
ND Mike That’s what I’m talking about. OH YEAH!!! Just makes me smile thinking about that first smell after getting up.

Had to try this new seasoning from spiceology. They are in the Sous Vide now.
I really like the intial smell of both of these. I wish they had a shaker top, but a tsp worked.

lkrfletcher I’m in the process of deciding what types off seasoning I’m purchasing. Probably will end up with both spiceology and excaliber. Wanting at least one for roasts/steaks and the other for chicken/pork. Who knows how big that box is going to be.

ND Mike Nothing better than homemade chicken noodle soup on a blustery day, unless you add a grilled cheese with it. My wife makes homemade noodles for ours, have some soup in the fridge right now.
bocephus I have made my own perogies but never noodles
-
craigrice My wife has been making noodles since she was a teenager, learned it from an aunt I think.
-
the best ways are the ones passed down
-
craigrice Absolutely, I am assembling recipes from my grandmothers, aunts and my parents. Also recipes from my wife’s family. Have a hand written one from my grandmother making homemade soap.

good for you now you just need to figure out what their meaning of a pinch and a dash is lol

craigrice Or a little of this, my mother always likes to say, “oh you know how much.” No I don’t that’s why I am asking.

craigrice When my wife would talk to my mom about some of her recipes it would drive her crazy because my mom would give ingredients but she would always say a little of this and a little of that when she tried to get measurements. Finally had my mom measure things for a base and then my wife learned to add more of the seasonings she likes. Now she is like my mom “put in as much of something as you like then taste it” I think this is the difference between cooking and baked goods.

bocephus Yep because baking is science where general cooking isn’t.

Ok. Been totally obsessed with baby reds for the last couple weeks. Fried, broiled and grilled doesn’t matter.
Today… Grilled with a ribeye. First try with the Gaucho seasoning. Awesome!

Tried hard not to finish this so I had a little taste at work tomorrow.
Really really good.

Some Evans didn’t hurt!

PapaSop that is a great looking meal!

Should we fire up the debate again as Jonathon alluded too on the livestream today? I made chili. Not Texas chili but chili the way we eat it up North. You see, we eat chili when it is cold out. Therefore, we put beans in it. You need all the extra protein you can get to help keep you warm and the beans help it stick to your ribs! Anyways, this was a mighty good bowl!

ND Mike If you get to New Mexico and ask for chile, they will ask you red or green. When we first moved here my wife went to a hotdog place and ordered a hotdog and they asked her red or green, she said “red or green what”.

PapaSop We love to do potatoes on the grill like that, almost every time I grill steaks we do potatoes in foil.
