What did everyone cook today?

Smoked the fresh oysters I got on Wednesday from the coast. Can’t go to Easter dinner at the kids since I came down with a bug last night, so I decided to pull the oysters from the brine and smoke them up. Cold water Willapa Bay oysters shucked the same day they were harvested.
johnsbrewhouse sorry to hear you were not feeling well. Those oysters look and sound delicious.

johnsbrewhouse Now I know that is good. We love those things, especially dipped in a garlic butter sauce after smoking. Always thought that was a special thing that my little hole in the wall place to visit, Drucilla’s, when in Baton Rouge, Louisiana did. Last time I visited though was probably at least 10 years ago & the prices had gone out of site for them since they were a never heard of thing back in the 90’s, etc. Hope you are feeling much better by now & those delicious smoked oysters helped!

I’m on a roll tonight, passed the Easter egg hunt and had a successful batch with the Chicken On the Run breading. Used 100% sunflower oil. First dusted the Chicken tenderloins, let sit to get a base while making the liquid batter, dipped in batter then dusted them again deep fried. Very crispy!! Got another package to do tomorrow night the exact same way with the Legendary Northwoods batter to see which I like better

twilliams That looks really good, juicy, & tasty.

calldoctoday they were juicy, I was surprised. I’m still thinking I’m gonna like the Legendary Northwoods Seasoning better. But Chicken on the Run is good too.

twilliams I will have to try that one too, if I can find it. Yours just look really good. What type of oil did you deep fry them in? My Mom used to just make her own seasoning fry them slowly in a cast iron pan or electric skillet & I mean piles of them & they were really good, perfect. I used to be able to do a pretty darn good job on them too, a long time ago, & then something happened along the way. I think I got too fancy or complicated with the fried chicken or something.

calldoctoday I used sunflower oil, only because peanut oil was $26 for a gallon. That’s what I usually use but since the economy is the way it is I’ve been really stingy

twilliams Yep, it has gotten beyond ridiculous now for Peanut & over the years I have stuck with it for quality. Last time I did a big fry I tried Soybean & we were reasonably satisfied with it. Sunflower has a wonderful flavor, one of the best in fact. I think it is better than some of the pricy Olive oils for flavor.

Saturday I smoked a pork loin for 2 1/2 hours and then put it in a crock pot for another 3 hours covered in kraut. I served it with some mashed potatoes, but no final pic of that. The kraut also picked up the smoky flavor from the pork.
Today I used the left over pork loin and shredded it with my homemade BBQ sauce and made a tasty pork sammie for dinner. A leftover deviled egg from Easter diner and some of the smoky kraut was my side. This pork made a great BBQ sandwich after cooking in the kraut.

@dennyo-s no just became a bit of a hermit for almost three weeks to refocus and regain some sanity. Went down to basics and essentials now I am just trying keep things from becoming a job. I was letting to many things distract from what is important, needed to clean out a bit of menutia. Besides the swing here is still covered in snow.

YooperDog don’t sweat the small stuff, and brother it’s mostly all small stuff. Your a smart man to pay attention to what really matters.
