Show Us What You're Cooking! (SUWYC) - Volume 27, Fall / Autumn 2022

[SoulHunter07]

Just your average ordinary venison smash burgers on the Blackstone…seared in wagyu tallow 😁

[SheilaAnn]

Tots! Burger looks great, too! Thank goodness there’s no ketchup 🤪

[texastweeter]

I have some venison smash burgers coming up soon. I use bacon grease. Try tossing the tots in rendered duck fat and seasoned salt. I discovered that trick while on a business trip to Nashville, never go back to regular tots.

[texastweeter]

Pre-hunt tacos

I typically make these in the wee hours of the morning before waking the rest of the family to head out to deer camp. Home made tortillas from the night before (I used some made by one of my employees grandmother this time, she needed some extra Christmas money), colby jack cheese, bacon, and eggs with heavy cream, seasoned salt, black pepper, chili powder, and Mexican oregano. I make the bacon on a rack in a sheetpan while I let the scramble concoction come up to room temp, then cook the eggs in the bacon grease. They get assembled and wrapped in foil. The packets go back into the oven that is still warm even though it is off to melt the cheese. Normally these are stashed in a lunch pail and passed out on the ride. Momma is in Ft.Worth Christmas shopping so they were breakfast this morning.

[Andrrr]

Good Lordy I could eat that most mornings. Do you make your own flour tortillas for these or corn?

[texastweeter]

Flour Andrrr

[Andrrr]

Thanks tweeter. I figured as much. I've pretty much got corn down but next I think I'm going to perfect flour, then a flour/corn mix.

[JuergenQ]

Rumpsteak, seasoned with sea salt, black&red pepper, porcino ( yellow boletus ) sauce and tomato rice with mozzarella

[Clawbear57]

Temp. Right on and the bark is to kill for! 😍.

[barelfly]

Excellent! I have family in the Ulm area. My dad finally went back and visited this summer as well.

[JuergenQ]

[SammyJ]

SpatchCock and green beans

[SoulHunter07]

San Fran style Vietnamese American garlic noodles w/ shrimp on the Wonder Wok.

[Allon]

Very nice plate says I...

[CHNeal]

Ok
so I’ll just do a second post on this dinner.
This is my family’s favorite meal hands down. It is the meal we celebrate with and the meal we use rate new to us restaurants.

Ribeye w/ sautéd mushrooms, baked potato and asparagus.

Its the meal I made to win my wife’s heart and the meal I’ve always prepared when a new boyfriend or girlfriend of my kiddos was brought home for the first time.

Its the meal asked for on birthdays and any other reason that can be thought of.

This is happiness and family on a plate for us and I so love to cook it.

[barelfly]

Yep. Sign me up! Love it all! Excellent cook there, chef!

[CHNeal]

barelfly Thank you again! Those mushrooms are one of those dishes that just couldn’t be easier to cook but turn out so great that everyone thinks they must take actual work and skill!!!

Ill post em up in the recipe section as lots of folks seem to enjoy the cook.

[DaveD]

Spectacular! Like watching a movie!

[TWBarbecue]

BBQ Sauce prep complete…work Christmas party coming up! NC BBQ sauce recipes from my friend Scott Bailey over at TheRealShowBBQ on YouTube & all social media.

[TWBarbecue]

Thank you CHNeal. Appreciate that.

[Spinaker]

Very Cool man!

[TWBarbecue]

Spinaker Thank you sir!

[Panhead John]

I haven’t had a good filet in a while, so I thought I’d do one tonight served with some cold boiled shrimp and oven baked taters. I love Costco steaks. My parole officer said it was one of the best meals he’s had in ages!

[DaveD]

You crushed that one, compadre. Nice work!

[TWBarbecue]

Perfect! What a meal this is…You rocked this one for sure. Great job!

[Spinaker]

Great Cook, my friend! It would appear that you are learning.

[Sid P]

Right on PJ, the Filet looks perfect 👍👏👏.

[Panhead John]

Thanks Sid, appreciate that!

[Ernest]

Simple scrambled eggs and rice

[WayneT]

I wasn’t sure if culinary school and art school were a good mix but now I’m convinced. Printing this out now for a tasting.

[Draznnl]

Nothing is "simple" with your touches and flourishes Ernest. Another beautiful cook.

[Allon]

I've never heard of that combination before.
I think I just might be able to do this one...

I didn't say I'm actually going to but I might!

Keep it simple stupid stuff, well, maybe...

[theroc]

Some comfort food for a cool, drizzly night. Chicken and rice with asparagus.

[SheilaAnn]

It’s already drizzly? Not here yet. That plate is a comfort food hug.

[theroc]

SheilaAnn - drizzle started about 7pm here. Started raining in earnest about 10pm. 4 inches accumulated in our background rain gauge by this morning. A nice rain.

[Allon]

That just shouts comfort food...

[lumbrjk]

Had some folks over for an early Christmas celebration! Used my newly built smoker with oak. It was amazing! Pie was soooo good!

[SheilaAnn]

What was on the menu?

[lumbrjk]

Pork belly burnt ends to start, ribs and pulled pork over smoked potatoes as the main course, and two smoked pecan pies for dessert. I will cover the crust with foil next time but the rest was great.

[barelfly]

Pecan pie baby!!!!

[Spinaker]

North Woods pie, from Betty’s Pies in Tofte, MN! World famous! I think I might look into becoming a Pie model. 😎🎅🏻

[ofelles]

With all due respect....don't quit your day job! 😁

[Andrrr]

Put a little flour on that apron and people might actually think you made it

[Spinaker]

LOL, slight detail I overlooked while trying to pretend like I know how to bake pies. Although, I figured the cardboard box gave it away. @Andrr

[CHNeal]

Spinaker You would look right at home on the Price Is Right!!!

[Panhead John]

I was thinking “The Gong Show”

[Spinaker]

You are right, maybe I should audition.
