Large threads tend to slow the site down so I locked the old thread and started this new one.

I think Chicken, mashed potatoes and gravy are on the menu for tonight.

Lobster Rolls & French Fries from local food truck.

Deep fried chorizo chimichangas, mexican rice, refried beans.

Day 2 was amazing!

Yum…

.

Pork chops and Apple sauccce.

Seasoned whole baby taters, fresh carrots, and blackened King salmon on the pellet grill.

Would have done Coho salmon, but Costco doesn't have that in St. Cloud. It really hit the spot either way.

And milk.

Friday night ribs.

Shrimp salad sandwiches & fries

Those are black? Do they manage to bark them well or are they a bit ashtray-ee?

.

Pizza & whole baked Italian hoagie with banana peppers.

Did a creole sausage and crawfish dressed up jambalaya.

It hit the spot.

Baby reds and tenderloins on the grill, Brussel sprouts with a little bacon cooked in maple syrup and soy… sooooo good

Similar suppa here last night. I steamed some sprouts and a few carrots, potatoe n egg salad, and a wayy overpriced steak.

Tell me more about how you do those red taters on the grill. Just baked potato style or what?

I'm usually dicing and boiling them, smashing them into a skin-on cake thing, or dicing them in chunks with a bit of oil and seasoning for a grill or broiler.

Simply in tin foil baked… when done split and add a little butter.

That is what I suspected, just wasn't sure. We'll wrap up a bunch of baby reds and do something similar with a herb infused butter dip too, or drizzle, whichever one prefers.

Snow crab legs and Scalloped Potatoes last night. I need to go shopping 🛒

I don't think I've ever tried a brussel sprout in my entire life. ..... That and Escargot may be the only things I have never tried.

3 eggs 1 was a bouble yolk, 4 hashbrowns, 3 sausages.

Gyros & fresh cut fries

Whipped up some mystery stuff that turned out pretty good and cheap.

Started out with a bunch of Ramen noodles with a seasoning no one in the house liked. Boiled the noodles in the remainder of a bottle of beef bone broth and a spoonful of beef tallow. Threw in powdered garlic and a couple shakes of our newest Chimichurri seasoning.

Finished with the remains of 1/2 a steak sliced as thin as I could get it.

Topped with more Chimichurri seasoning.

It was a hit.

T Bone and baked potato in the mountains around Sedona. God damn!!!

Pasghetti & Meatballs, salad, garlic toast

T-Day preps under way…
