What did everyone cook today?

GWG8541 Went out and pulled the tarp when the sun finally showed and did a finish trowel, looks good. Will pull forms tomorrow if it is not raining or at least not pouring and get the slab curing. Got to drill for 3 lags, but that will come in a week or so when it’s partially cured. I was going to put studs in, but didn’t want problems trying to set a generator on the studs with my tractor.
johnsbrewhouse man don’t know much about concrete but I have to re-set a basketball hoop that’s off square. Gonna start doing some research but I think I’ll have to pull up the old slab and anchor, and drop a new form tube.

Surg I’ve poured a lot of concrete in my time. My dad had us mix concrete in a dishpan and we poured and entire patio. Young and dumb. I have a mixer now. I buy sand and gravel mixed then bags of portland cement. You can buy the premix and mix it in a wheelbarrow, takes a bit longer but works. My only recommendation if you use that method is to buy a concrete mixing hoe. It has holes in it and makes mixing a whole lot easier. I’ve mixed a lot in the wheelbarrow too before the mixer.

gus4416 after tasting on the fish, that will be next. I would probably add panko still for more crunch.

Fry it twice as Chinese food. Fry it the first time at a lower temp to a light color and put it on paper towels to cool a little then heat the oil to the smoke point and fry it again to a nice golden color and you will have the most crispy texture ever.

You can add up to 10% liquid to any sausage and typically it makes for a better final product, but water, beer, beef, chicken, or pork stock make wonderful additions.

I finally used the Pa’s Black Bull soluble. I picked up some bone-in 2 inch thick pork chops (Pig Porterhouses) and injected them with the Pa’s last night. They marinated all night and I did a reverse sear on them for dinner. They were smoked at 225 for close to 2 hours until the IT was 120, then seared until the IT was 145. They had a little smoke ring and were juicy, so the end product was fantastic. I roasted some fresh asparagus with parmesan cheese, garlic and drizzled it with brown butter. I decided to add some starch at the last minute, so the baked beans were canned Bush’s. It was a great meal on a cold rainy day.
GWG8541 Wow that looks absolutely terrific.
-
Surg Hey, how many people did you have over to devour that feast??? Really looks wow!!!

Tex_77 Oh yeah that is priceless.

mrobisr I always fry my homemade French fries twice. I have never done fish or shrimp twice because they get done so quickly. Is the first fry done at a lower temp?
