      Sauteed kale is much like collards or mustard greens

      The trick is to saute your greens in bacon grease, and then add the bacon back in with the greens.

      Bogy sometimes I just sauté the bacon and serve it ;-)

    Needed a redemption steak after the awful bone in ribeye the other night.

      Been awhile since I've done an Aaron and Claire recipe and they've had a Honey Garlic chicken dish on their site that I have been itching to try: https://aaronandclaire.com/honey-garlic-chicken/

      I followed the recipe essentially verbatim except I doubled it and substituted agave nectar for honey, which, while I prefer the taste of honey, agave nectar is just so much easier to work with.

      I got the chicken going in the marinade and then after twenty minutes seared the heck out of it in a cast iron pan. I, once again because I never learn, came close to overcrowding the pan, but I had that burner on stupidly high heat, which mitigated any steaming threat.

      Once the chicken is done, you remove it and then let the heat reduce a bit, then add in some butter, green onions, and garlic. I used an entire head of minced garlic because this is garlic chicken after all. Once the garlic is golden, you pour in the rest of the sauce ingredients -- soy sauce, oyster sauce, pepper, miren, agave/honey, cornstarch, and chicken boillion -- and let that thicken.

      Then add the chicken back in and heat through.

      I plated it up with some rice and steamed brocolli.

      Very good and quite garlicky. I think I will try it with actual honey next time as the agave nectar, while very good, was just a bit too sharp on the sweetness.

      And what I will probably also do is grill the chicken to get some nice char on it.

        Great looking pizzas!

        Have the kids stopped asking, "Dad, what's for dinner?"

        I bet you're getting no complaints when pizza night rolls around a few times in a week.

        fzxdoc you would think, but somehow they prefer McDonald's 🤷‍♂️

      Pork tenderloins. A family favorite. The aroma is incredible. Smoked to 130 then seared.

        Very nice! It's hard to get color on pork without drying it out. Did you have a little something sugary under that herby rub?

        Those tenderloins look soooo pretty!

        fzxdoc a little mayo added just before searing really helps with browning.

        I add the spices to wet tenderloins for the smoke, nothing else until the sear.

      “Secret Breakfast” - Vanilla, cornflakes & bourbon. My take on the classic Humphrey Slocombe flavor…for you Bay Area residents. This is one of the best ice creams I’ve made. Super rich - you can see the vanilla seeds, the clusters of cornflake are perfect - crunchy AND chewy, and the bourbon finish! My goodness, heaven.

        I...I do not need to take up ice cream making as a hobby.....

      A simple yet delicious dinner to wrap up the workweek. A burger over charcoal dressed to my liking, grilled romaine, and some frozen onion rings that a random guy I met on the internet told me to buy. DaveD I never buy frozen onion rings because they always blow, but for frozen???? These definitely take the cake.
      My highly-regarded seal of approval.
