  1. SA Vet Memorial had four plays from the 8 yrd line to win the game and couldn’t connect on any of them. Tough loss.

    CC Vet Mem were well coached and honestly it took a crazy rally in the 4th to get close.

    They did hit our kicker square in the plant knee early in the game and shredded his knee. So we ended up having to go for every two pt Conversion and failed on most of then , which meant we had to score TD to win instead of kick FG.

  2. Damn. New Zion Church bbq in Huntsville closed. So many memories from back in the day. During college I worked at the liquor store next door and the pit masters would come over each day and grab a soda and a scratch ticket. He always smelled like delicious bbq which would cause me to go get a sammich there. They would do family style and let me tell you, 5-6 hungover college kids can put down some Q.

  3. That's funny, I am going to need to see a picture of the hand written recipe to determine if it is really called "Cock Spaghetti" or if the first step is "cook Spaghetti" - in his comments at the end he calls it out again as "cock Spaghetti" but then says it does not mention cooking pasta, so I am guessing your edit is correct. 



    It’s called Cock Spaghetti. As in chicken.

    On a plane but will take pic when I get back.

    Browned and then braised these chicken legs in a “red gravy” sauce. Recipe from a coworkers grandma in Louisiana.

    Served with roasted Brussel sprouts, angel hair pasta with the red gravy over it and of course garlic bread.

    Ok. I translated from Cajun to English and typed up the recipe like us normal folks would follow.  (Original recipe was hand written, out of order and had side notes all over). 

     

    Cock Spaghetti

     

    2 containers each of “seasoning” =  trinity (diced onions, diced celery and diced bell peppers). 

    4 large 32 oz cans of Chicken Broth

    7 small cans of Contadina tomato paste

    1 large can of crushed tomatoes

    1 16oz container of sliced mushrooms.

    14-15 chicken legs

    1 cup red wine

    1 can of Coke

    Cajun Land Seasoning (or whatever you got.  I used Chupacabra season all because it is awesome)

    Italian Seasoning

    Salt & Pepper

     

    1. In a large stock pot, sauté veggies in olive oil on medium high heat. 

    2. Lower heat to medium .  Add paste and brown it with the veggies.  Keep stirring.  (30 min)

    3. Lower to medium low heat and add broth and crushed tomatoes. 

    4. Add liberal amounts of Italian seasoning and season all over the top of the pot.  Add 1 tbl spoon Black pepper.

    5.  Cook red gravy for two hours.  Stir occasionally

    6. After cooking for two hours, add can of coke and cup of red wine.  Cook three more hours.  Drink wine.  Stir occasionally. 

    7. Meanwhile, season chicken legs with season all and pepper. Maybe a little salt.  Let sit 30-45 min.

    8. Brown chicken legs all over.  45 min before the gravy is done, add chicken legs to the gravy and submerge.

    9. Also 45 min before gravy is done, add sliced mushrooms. 

     

     

    Notes:  This makes A LOT of food.   For normal family of 4-5, you can cut recipe in half.  Leftover chicken is amazing.  Also, despite it being called Cock Spaghetti, the recipe actually doesn’t mention any pasta at all.  We served the red gravy over angel hair pasta with the chicken on the side and garlic bread.  The red gravy is dark, rich and full of good acidity.

  6. Went with the recipe JimmyJazz posted earlier. Only changes were I cut the Chipotle in half , cut one cup of the water and added one cup of beer and doubled the oregano. Added some additional salt after cooking for a while.

    Was extremely tasty and very mild ( family all enjoyed it, which is rare).
