Dave in AZ Be glad we are too far apart or I would be at your door begging for food! Wow that looks fantastic.
mrobisr welcome anytime! I guess Cinco de Mayo is just a local Southwest big thing, I thought everyone would be posting their cooks today. Here in Arizona, it’s probably 2nd only to 4th of July as a “big cooking day”, everyone does their various Mexican and southwest dishes.
Meh, I just asked my kids if they knew what Cinco de Mayo was celebrating, 1 of 3 knew Mexican Independence. When I asked Independence from who? One of them guessed France. She said it was a joke but I’m not so sure… Maybe I’m just excited about it more because it’s a Grilling Day
They were all more excited for “May the Fourth be With You!”, yesterday, but I couldn’t think of any Star Wars dishes to cook… -

Had I been home tonight instead of having to run a meeting, we would have been having tamales and enchiladas. It will have to be another day now.

bocephus I remember first time I had cilantro, thinking “this tastes just like stinkbugs smell!” Lol. But now I love it and use a lot, essential for Southwest or Mexican cooking.

Capocolla
Just started it today with my son, his first meat project. Twelve days cure for this 4in diameter coppa. Used recipe from 2guysandAcooler, Eric. Classic actual way is to dry to 35% loss or so, eat uncooked like prosciutto. Not sure if I will dry in my converted fridge meat chamber, or SV as more of a ham. Most of the stuff you get on subs is actually cooked, will probably do that so I can show my son how fast and easy the process is for high quality home products. I should probably buy another butt and do both! -

I did a Sous vide backstrap with the Excalibur blackberry peppercorn seasoning. We really liked it, if I had some goat cheese to go with it, this would have been out of bounds.

Tex_77 looks great, and that cook arm very useful. Neat to see it in action, the pot arm makes it even more useful that I realized from your other post.

Dave in AZ When it is in something, to me it over powers everything else. Just one of those people that doesn’t care for it.
