Haven’t cooked much lately.
Chuck roast was on sale today, so I made a nice beef stew. Been working on my recipe, it gets a little better each time. |

We're working on the beef unit in class last week and we made classic beef stew for one of the recipes. They let us tweak how we see fit and encourage experimentation. I wanted to boost the sweeter root veg flavors and add some color to the broth so I added some diced sweet potato early in the braise so it would dissolve completely and help thicken it. I added the rutabaga and potato later on so they'd keep some of their structure and flavors. I used white wine and Worcestershire. It was the best beef stew I've ever made or tasted. Delicious. You'd probably never guess it was sweet potato giving it that body which is my favorite thing about it. I'm going to develop a recipe for this one, and I'll post it when I'm finished.

Ground beef chimichanga covered with ranchero sauce and a side of black beans.
A local mexican restaurant puts 'ranchero sauce' on their chimichangas that I like. I tried a recipe which calls for roasted red bell, poblano and tomatoes. Then simmer in chicken stock with onions, garlic, diced green chiles, jalapeno and cumin. Blend everything until smooth. It's a pretty mild sauce. |

Yesterday I helped Mom prepare our Thanksgiving lunch. I did the purple hull peas and the green beans. I also did some of the prep work for the cornbread dressing. Took all kinds of notes, gonna try making my own soon.

Yesterday I made a batch of Chef John’s Hungarian Potato Soup. Used over a pound of sausage instead of the 6 oz the recipe calls for. I feel like its a better ratio of meat to potatoes n cabbage.

Fried some venison backstrap this evening at my parents. Mom made mustard greens and cornbread. While my batter needs work, everything else was spot on.

Veal unit in school this week, so we portioned a clod and a couple eye rounds, pounded out some nice cutlets and made a marsala and a piccata. Also a Blanquette, which was a white stew with veal braised in chicken stock, pearl onions and mushrooms, thickened with a roux and finished with a liaison of egg and heavy cream and a touch of lemon juice. It was all delicious.

I made "man wings" last night. With the absurd pricing of $3/lb for wings, I stole an idea from a friend and just made wings with chicken legs.
I baked them at 375 in my smoker for 40 minutes and then sauced them up and put them in the air fryer for 10-12 minutes on high. Mango habenero and standard Sweet Baby Rays sauces. Man wings for $0.92 a pound. |

Chicken & Rice, one of my favorite meals since I was a little kid
2-2.5lbs of boneless chicken pieces, breast or thighs, my mom used breasts but I like the extra moisture of thighs. 1 1/2 sticks of butter 2 cups rice 2.5 cups water 1 can French Onion Soup 1 can Cream of Celery Soup 1 can Cream of Mushroom Soup Preheat oven to 350 degrees I usually use a nonstick cake pan, but a casserole dish is fine. Put the butter into the dish and into the oven to melt it. Meanwhile, season the chicken with salt and pepper (I spread the thighs (giggity) or butterfly the breasts, makes the cooking more consistent imho) on both sides. Once the butter is melted, pull the pan out, coat the chicken with the butter on both sides and set the chicken aside. I usually use tongs and just lay the chicken in the pan, flip it, then remove. Add the remaining ingredients to the pan and mix thoroughly. Lay the chicken in the pan on top of the mixture. Place in the 350 degree oven and bake for approximately 1.5 hours. My gas oven is right on the money, my old electric oven would take another 15 minutes, sometimes more. The rice should be brown and crispy around the edges Scoop and serve. Makes about 6 decent servings. ETA: I THINK this came from an ooooold Betty Crocker cookbook, but I've been eating it since I was a child at least. |

Its a little bit of both really. The chicken juices flavor the rice well, but i find the chicken to be a little over cooked. It an easy recipe though.

After the pork butt, I decided to move to one of my favorites, beef ribs. Now prior I had done them indirect fire on a Weber kettle. This was completely different and amazing. 8.5 hours at 275 with mesquite pellets.
5 hours in Attached File 8.5 hours later Attached File Let it rest for 45 mins in an ice chest and we get this. Attached File The light made the middle look darker than it was. Have to say I'm sold. |

Gingerbread with lemon sauce.
Came across a recipe that called for 1.5 cups of cold brewed coffee in the batter which sounded good. |

I have done kielbasa, potatoes, onions and cabbage in a ditch oven before. Usually seasoned with black pepper, salt, sometimes a bit of brown sugar and caraway seed.
Today I was sitting on afternoon deer watch and thinking about dinner. Same basic ingredients; kielbasa, cabbage, onions and potatoes. Instead of the usual seasonings I put in a quarter cup of really good soy sauce and a third cup of sweet chili garlic sauce and some black pepper. Baked it another forty minutes. That was so freaking good. |

Saturday night I did a big gumbo with a hen and some smokey deer sausage. Was good but not great.
Sunday after lunch Mom showed me how she makes her pralines. I’m sure I helped her as a kid, but this was the first time i really paid attention and helped out. Her pralines are fantastic. Sunday evening I smothered some turnips with onions and sausage. First time cooking turnips, and while there was a hint of bitterness in them, they were still good. Last night I put some white beans and smoked ham hocks in the crock pot and cooked them all night. Today at work some co workers did jambalaya and smothered turnips. We ate well. |

View Quote @Logan45 To help with the bitterness there is a secret I was taught. If you cut the top off the turnip look closely and you will see a faint brown layer between the white meat and the outer skin. That layer is bitter. So when you peal the turnip go to just below the brown layer. That may not rid all the bitterness but will reduce it A LOT. Then the cooking will reduce it even more. EBR |

Last night was Wally pizza. Same as Sams Club pizza, but a shorter drive. I simply can't build a pizza as cheap as they sell it.
Tonight is potato soup. I am building a recipe now. So far I have garlic, leeks, onion, taters, salt, pepper, heavy cream, chikn stonks, parsley.................. I know I have a tested recipe in my cookbook, just trying to get ahead of tonight's cook. Smoked prime rib this weekend. I will probably build some elk stew this weekend if I can remember to thaw some out. It was a big hit last time. |
