I worked at Steak and Ale in Amarillo, started out at the salad bar, finished there too. 

Dad would drive us to Tulsa to have dinner at Steak and Ale, very big deal.  Dad said we dined at the Steak and Ale because Pillsbury owned the company and he owned Pillsbury stock, so it was like eating for free.

Wife’s garden made some eggplants and basil.  So, I made eggplant Parmesan.

I started making these in the early stages of the pandemic. I’m not sure if my recipe is the greatest in the world, but my kids love it, especially my son, who gets to drink the rest of the Mexican Coke in the bottle after I put about 3/4 of a cup into the pot. And they like how I crisp up the pork at the end by flash frying in some of the braising liquid.

This was the first time I made it so I just googled and followed this. They give you two options for the eggplant, I went the frying route and they turned out perfectly.

Made spare ribs for the first time ever on the BGE. They came out ok.  I over-seasoned them but for the first time I'm happy. 

My wife made twice broiled mac and cheese with gruyere.  It was the star of 5he the show.

I was inspired by Trudy’s tonight. All I need is a couple Mexi-marts and I’m freakin set. Fried avocado FTW.

I’d kill for that fried okra ..

Grilled some shrimp and corn yesterday. Served with a side of air fried taters and marinated olives.

[Party_Taco 3723]

From michigan tell me what I’m looking at…

Country salad and potatoes with merguez and a side of okra (not French)

Moving on to this morning’s meal…

Leftover scalloped potatoes cooked in bacon fat with, bacon obviously, and some eggs. The cursory “fruit” portion rounds things out.

[PantsTent 2002]

Green bean and ground pork stir fry. So simple and good…

[shadow_operative2.0 15950]

^ Got a recipe, or do you just wing it with the spices? 

[pops 6980]

Aglio E Olio with bruschetta from my garden. Sometimes the simplest is best. 

 

[Party_Taco 3723]

Tilefish with a basil/tomato/garlic sauce topped with peppers, perm and mushroom bacon. Super simple recipe from Legal Seafood that is packed with flavor, but add garlic cause how tf do you have a tomato-basil sauce without it?!

Soft shells were gonna be an app but had some surprise preggos, so dinner instead…

Forgot the plating with summer corn because wine.

This is the general idea I used.  I used more meat so needed more sauce.  I seasoned the meat and added some red peppers.

I can't clam this but my 12 year old daughter wanted to make chicken sandwiches from scratch.  These are all the pictures you get fuckers.

Fuck me what a sandwich! If your daughter can fry chicken like that at 12 she will achieve great things in life.

Looks great and that’s a pro move putting fries in the gyro. Fries look great as well

We are having a family dinner Sunday to celebrate three summer birthdays - DIL and two sons.
Crepe enchiladas (both real and vegan), steamed tamales, & salad. 
Dessert will be a vegan bundt cake and pecan “pielettes”. This is the second batch of pielettes….
 

[Armybrat 40822]

Only two rejects…. I shall take it upon myself to dispose of them, somehow.

Damn. That looks amazing. Do you crisp the potatoes first or just throw everything in the pot?
