Nothing like a great serving of Étouffée.

Chef I heard that!

Had Thanksgiving dinner this past weekend with my mother. Using the leftover hambone to make ham and beans. What seasoning do you think I should try?
JohnG5 The applewood rub for sure and probably some garlic butter, and a little five pepper blend to add some flavor. I don’t think the apple cinnamon would be a good choice nor the roast and chop rub, since the three I mention have some of the same ingredients and cinnamon just doesn’t pair well with the beans and is often overpowering.

JohnG5 I think the flavor profile would call for butter garlic.

Dr_Pain Your next Roux lesson should be on a lighter butter based roux.

That’s a great idea. What do you suggest I should make??
Mastering a butter based roux for an etouffe or a bechamel is much easier (in my opinion) than frying a roux for gumbo or a stew. It is in the same category (to me) as having a light roux for a seafood gumbo… although I am one that really prefer not to use a roux for seafood, just okra!

We raise a lot of okra. My wife uses it exclusively to thicken her seafood gumbo. I assume it is healthier so I can have another bowl.

Chef I would like to dig into that dish.

Well, here are the 4 1/2 days of Ham Bean Soup. Started with Pork Bone broth for a few days of simmering.
Then comes the basics to get everything ready.

We have been dining on fresh venison a couple of times over the last week
Last night, I took the fresh inside tenderloins and made grilled kabobs from them. I marinated them in a commercial kabob seasoning we like, olive oil, and fresh garlic.
Very tender and flavorful eating.
Served on steamed rice with baked eggplant.
The fire was particularly colorful in the dark so I got some pictures of it as well.
processhead man oh man that looks great
