Kenji is a god, but his bar style pizza is awesome.  I will have to try the french bread one next time.

Wanted to grill, but after working in the heat all day I decided against sitting outside babysitting a grill.  So I cooked inside.  Pan seared chicken breasts, cheesy brats, boudin, pinto beans, and a baked potato.

Today I made a pasta recipe I saw on a cooking show. I tweaked it a bit.

50/50 percentage of hot and sweet sausage links, baked,  sliced, then sauteed in olive oil, add sliced garlic, add a can of tomato paste, caramelize that, then deglaze with a little less then a half bottle of wine. I'm frugal, so use two buck chuck as my go to cooking wine, I used "red blend" here. Reduce that until it actually looks like thick brown gravy, then add in a LARGE can to crushed tomatoes. I don't scrimp here, and used imported san marzanos. Salt and pepper, about a Tablespoon of sugar, meanwhile ...on another burner... Pot of salty water boiling orchietta pasta. And on yet a third burner... Simple sauteed spinach. Olive oil into a large pot, add garlic, saute, then add a quarter cup of water and a massive (costco style) box of baby spinach, that cooks itself with a few stirs. When the pasta is done, drain, and add to the pot of sausage and sauce. Add in the spinach which should have been finished about 8-10 minutes ago.. Toss it all together Don't add in any of the water from the spinach, but do keep the salted pasta water before you drain.

Finish with a mass ton of freshly shaved parmigian cheese, I used about 6 oz...? A LOT. stir that in after all heat is off. check seasoning.. add pasta water as needed for consistency, and food for a whole day done in about 30 minutes.

Yesterday Dad fired up his big bbq pit and we did chicken halves, old school Louisiana style.  One chicken we put in a brine, the other we marinated in some Pig Stand basting sauce.  We grilled them low and slow for a good while, then right at the end we hit them with some Pig Stand bbq sauce and let that tack up a little.  

Came out great.  Only problem is we mixed up the brined chicken and the one with the basting sauce.  So we have no idea which one was better

Store bought tamale with homemade red Chile sauce. I just found out the way to improve canned refried beans and make them like homemade is to add milk, cream, crema or sour cream. All I had was buttermilk. What a difference it makes. Instead of dry and stiff, the beans are creamy like you find in a restaurant.

Made a batch of 50/50 pork and beef sausage.  Salt, pepper, granulated garlic, dried mustard powder.  Trying to make a Texas/Czech style sausage.  It is in the smoke now.

My Ipotato usually isn't blurry, this is about 1/2 of the batch:

BLT made with fried green tomatoes.

Somebody mentioned it in GD so I thought I'd give it a try. Not bad at all but I'll stick with ripe tomatoes, they're better and easier.

Added a slice of pepper jack cheese and Sriracha-Basil Mayo.

Started out trying to make chicken tacos.  Ended up being a spicy chicken stew, eaten over rice with pinto beans and tortillas on the side.  It was decent, but apparently the whole jar of chilies and tomatoes was too much.  Sooooo spicy.

At the store yesterday I saw frozen pretzel dogs. Was curious so when I got home I googled them and now I want to make them. Found a recipe that uses beer in the dough that sounded good. Might even just use a pizza dough.

Pretty good. I thought it called for too much vinegar at first, it was a bit too forward when I had my first bowl out of the pot. But I'm having my second bowl after a day and a half in the fridge, and the acidity has toned down.

The next sausage soup of his I want to make is bigos (Polish hunter's stew). It calls for all of a 2 lb head of cabbage. This soup called for 2 cups of chopped cabbage, which is about half a head.

Yesterday it was grilled pork chops, sausage, and boudin at the camp.  Did the chops low and slow on dad's Old Smokey and they came out great.  

Later today I'm doing smoked queso at a friends house.  If it turns out as good as I hear it is, it might end up in the regular rotation.

Working with a blender full of fresh homegrown tomato puree..

Olive oil, lots of chopped garlic, some dried onion I had, salt and pepper. Reduce until thick.

I might toss in some meatballs later, and serve it over spagetti if I get extra frisky.

Otherwise, it is the best tomato soup ever.

Y'ALL... Smoked queso is amazing.  I loosely followed the Meat Church recipe, put it on my buddies pit for an hour, and BAM best cheese dip I've ever had.  10/10 will cook again.
