Some wings, done differently. I used the oven in convection mode. Wasn't doing Kettle with Vortex and figured this is like airfryed. I was happy with the results. A bit smokey towards the end but manageable. Crip skin. I did corn starch and put in the refrigerator for about 3 hours. Then out for a while and seasoned per picture. About 30 minutes at 500. Lots of crunch while eating.

Daughter was feeling a little stuffed up and asked for a spicy soup. So went with a Thai red curry coconut noodle soup with chicken thighs and rice vermicelli. Finished with a squeeze of lime, cilantro and scallions

Tonight I cooked some Royal Red Shrimp by simmering a few minutes then putting em in the fridge to eat cold. [thanks for the tip smokenoob ] I found an easy fried scallop recipe online and did that….best scallops I can remember eating. And if that wasn’t enough, I made a fresh from scratch Italian Pasta which turned out killer. Even made the pasta fresh from scratch. I don’t even like olives but this recipe included them and it was great!

My Homemade Fresh From Scratch Pasta……🙄

Served On My Top Of The Line Plates…..

Mari Jo and I are big fans of the Starbucks egg bites. We found a copycat sous vide recipe online and gave it a shot. We chose to put prosciutto and basil in ours instead of bacon. All other ingredients were the same and in the ratios found in the recipe. I cooked them in the SV at 185F for 25 mins.

These turned out as good or better than the ones at Starbucks.

I made half of a ribeye pack I picked up from Costco tonight. The other half will be for an experiment this weekend.

BGE was fired up and ready for action. Medium rare for the both of us. Perfect….except for the pictures.

There was a time I thought a sirloin was a really good cut of steak. Then I started buying beef by the side and ribeyes cost the same as hamburger and sirloin didn't rate so high. BUT, the last side I got has marbeling like I've never had before. So tonight a little sirloin with scalloped potatoes and green beans.

Grilling by lantern light
Flap steak dusted with Hank's beef rub Henrik
Parmesan roasted taters, pepper an onion, sauteed broccoli, and fried zucchini rounds.
First time using the Hank's recipe, and it was a hit 😋

Since it's Friday, I get fish. Still no oil, dairy or alcohol. Dry skillet salmon, cayenne grits, and broccoli.

One of our favorite chicken recipes, pollo sabroso. Bone-in, skin-on chicken thighs marinated in a mix of red wine vinegar & low-sodium soy sauce with sazon (my lovely bride makes her own), garlic powder, adobo powder, and oregano. Did them on the SnS kettle 2-zone style with the indirect side at 350F/175C with KBB and a sprinkling of the fragments from the bottom of my bag of apple chunks, plus one small chunklet. Indirect until ITs about 160F/70C, then seared over the hot side until ITs reached about 170F/77C.

Plated with steamed rice and broccoli.

Super delicious! Can't go wrong with chicken and rice.

It’s a lake weekend - so lots of fun, some bike riding, and of course some excellent food! Broke out the Wonder Grill today, my $30 Masterbuilt kettle that rocks

Santa Maria Style Tri Tip with some great Oak Ridge BBQ Santa Maria rub and of course, Santa Maria style beans - not pinquitos, but RG Rio Zape - all the RG beans are so good!

Chicken and rice. Tuscan kale with bomba sauce on the side.

This is a one off, and it isn't what I'm cooking, but what I'm eating. I'm calling from a patient room in a CVICU, after three pretty unreal days. Sunday, felt bad, watched SB in bed and never thawed the planned stone crab claws.
Monday went to work, marked vertigo and nausea on way (bad on I-4), threw up in work parking lot and went back home. Took nausea med I had and slept all day, throwing up everything but toenails every few hours. Same Tuesday, felt better Wed am and went to work. Everything biurry and spinning, unreal nausea... went inside and they took blood pressure > 70/40. PA I work with started IV, few minutes before my boss texted (she's also MD) they are going to call EMS to take you to ER.
Well, no, I don't want to ride in amb, hosp is <2 miles away, I'll go myself. Feel better after fluids.
Of course, I went home. Knew I would be admitted, and need to cover my dog. Called my vet's boarding kennel, they said "bring her." Threw some things in a bag and took off. Vet even walked out and got her from car. Off to ER. That was midmorning Wed, I'm still in CVICU. Acute kidney failure, some odd metabolic stuff, wildly swinging blood pressures, and projectile vomiting on a nurse i really like.
After very aggressive, excellent care (4 specialists, 5 imaging tests, near 70 labs, and untold bags of drugs running into both arms) i have "adrenal insufficiency, presenting with acute kidney failure and adrenal crisis, B12 deficiency anemia" and some other things.)
The good news, although i will be on steroids forever, diet rec is this: higher proteins, esp fish and red meat -for B12, poultry and eggs, and liberal use of salt.

This is actually the reason i wrote this treatise. The dinner i had tonight was the first food I'd had since sometime Saturday, this meal from a hospital cafeteria for a gluten free adrenal diet! i was already eating when i decided to shoot a pic. (I also sent thank you note back with my tray

Picked up cod and shrimp Friday night and I played with whole wheat Panko crumbs and avocado oil in our oven that has an air fry setting. I was very pleased with the results.
