Happy Valentineโs Day to everyone in this awesome group. I did not cook today, we went out to celebrate the holiday, just so you know, I do eat salad, sometimes!
Like, like, and like. Oh, and I like the wine too. Nice Valentine's Day dinner for sure. Thanks for posting the recipes. I want my next steak au poivre to turn out as beautifully as yours did.
So my posts are gonna be kina weird for the next 40 days. This year for Lent I have decided to follow the traditional Eastern Orthodox fasting and abstinence schedule. I get 1 meal and two small snacks a day. Monday Tuesday Wednesday Thursday and Saturday, I get no meat, dairy, eggs, oil or alcohol. Fridays I can have fish. Sundays I can eat normal. Here's today's meal. Roasted cauliflower steaks and a cross between Greek and German potato salad.
MsTwiggy that was steamed for a bit, then basted in a curry rub that I had bloomed in some of the juice from a can of chick peas and sprinkled with kosher salt before broiling.
MsTwiggy I think you mistook the pepperoni for olives. I put a few types of salami, pepperoni (a type of salami itself?), and some basil on there. Panhead John I took it as a compliment.
MsTwiggy We are definitely in pizza overdrive at the moment. My pizza oven was broken so I fixed it and moved it into the outdoor kitchen for winter which means pizza rain or shine meanwhile my pizza game is surging ๐ฅ๐ฅ๐ฅ
Nobody ever mistakes MY food for Richard Chrz ... that's amazing. Yes, pepperoni is considered a type of salami. If I'm not mistaken it actually originates from the USA too.
Tuesday Night's Pre-Valentine's Day Steakhouse Dinner at Home. I joked this was my Wife Linda's last meal because she was having Neck Surgery Wednesday morning.
Homemade French Onion Soup au Gratin, Then Front Seared Porterhouse Steak on my Carbon Steel, Grana Padano and Cheddar Twice Baked Potatoes, Steamed Artichokes (a family go to), and am delicious Au Jus with Sautรฉed Mushrooms.
Gladly it was not her last meal, as she is recovering from surgery just fine.

A couple recent cooks. I got the Wok rolling and stir fried a few veggies and some pork tenderloin. The leftovers will go with scrambled eggs tonight. The soup is my version of fish chowder with plenty of veggies, clams, shrimp, and some salmon that I smoked last fall.
On the Bronco, BB Ribs from Sam's Club. Rubbed with Meat Church's Deez Nuts, Slight glaze with Texas Pepper Jelly Rib Candy Apple-Cherry Habanero. Smoked over B&B Briquettes/Char Logs and Cherry wood chunks.
Back home after my trip to Galveston, a quick comfort food meal of a baked tater loaded with butter, granulated garlic, shredded cheddar, and a few oz/250g of leftover smoked Angus chuck, all topped with Rudy's Sause. Simple and delicious!
