What did everyone cook today?

YooperDog lkrfletcher keto is a life change, once you do it you can never go back and expect to stay with the weight loss. You may be able to cheat a little more but really once you make the change you don’t really miss and crave the old foods anymore. Not eating and drinking the carbs, sugars and portion control is the key. It was very successful for me, notice how I said “was”. Yes I need to do it again and stay on it. It’s hard since neither my wife or I enjoy to cook. As well as heat up the house in the summer time such as now. 90* we don’t feel like doing nothing.
twilliams thanks. We do have a Papa Murphy’s, but about an hour away. We have been implementing changes slowly. Many of the things I really didn’t eat much at all. But it is sort of like lent, it’s when you can’t have something that you want it.

zbigjeff Just going to run the one last experiment by roasting the beans on the smoker completely, Going to wait to do this, since it will rely on me tending to the beans instead of the roaster.
johnsbrewhouse Good luck with that. Will the smoker get the beans hot enough to roast? Never roasted coffee beans.

depending on what type of grill and smoker you have at your disposal you might want to roast them on the grill with smoke for enough temp to roast them Mabey in a vegetable basket with a screen then you just need to shake it occasionally till done

I must say you guys have peaked my interest in roasting my own beans. Going to do some research and see what all is involved.Surg Go to Burmans Coffee Traders, they are a pretty good source of information and product. I get my Kona beans direct from Hawaii from a person I have been dealing with for a number of years. he rest I usually get from Burmans. Good people.

craigrice I have a Traeger, I’ll pan smoke them. It’s just a matter of keeping them moving depending on the batch size. You just have to watch them when they start to hit temp because they change quick within a matter of minutes from light to dark roast which affects flavor profiles.

YooperDog 370-500 degrees. The Treager is capable of hitting that especially if you take the heat defuser out from under the tray. You can get direct heat right above the pellet bowl that’s super heated. It’s like when the pellets overload the bowl and light off.

lkrfletcher Zoodles are great! I bought an attachment for my kitchen aid that will cut whole zucchini into sheets. It works great for a lower carb lasagna!
Joe Hell awesome. I’ll be looking for one of those.

I made ‘potsticker’ brats this morning…all the goods you might find in a potsticker stuffed into a casing.
I used pork, cabbage, green onion, red onion, carrots, ginger, garlic, crushed red pepper, sesame sees, mushroom soy sauce and Chinese five spice.
I ran the pork through the grinder once before adding all of the produce and dry ingredients and running a second time followed by an addition of water and soy.
The mix works well as stand alone brat or removed from the casing and used as a pot sticker filling.

calldoctoday I remember days/weeks like you’re having. Never pleasant. But, the bills must be paid.

Joe Hell that looks great. Did you put your veggies in fresh or did you have to saute them or something?
cdavis I’ve made that brat with fresh and cooked ingredients. I’ve found that partially cooking the cabbage and carrot shreds seems to help with the texture. The sliced carrots came from a can of pickled jalapeños that I used on a sausage (merguez) that only needed the peppers. There was a decent amount of red onion and a small amount of purple cabbage that I chose to leave raw because cooking removes the color. It’s all about the presentation! I wish I could give specifics on amounts but so often when I come up with a brat it’s simply by eye. The first batch sold out so quick so I had to make another! The photo shows the cabbage that was sautéed in bacon grease (because bacon grease) and finished with a splash of mushroom soy sauce, green and red onion and purple cabbage. I started with 33 lbs of pork and the final weight for the batch was 46-ish. Be sure to mix until you just start to see signs of binding/protein extraction and everything should come together fine.

zbigjeff Yes, I have been doing it for over 45 years now & still probably have at least 10 more years to go before I can finally hang it up & I just worry about that!
