    It doesn't look near as good as it tasted, but pulled pork all crispy in the skillet and turned into a breakfast burrito is very hard to beat. Topped it with Cholula (how can I have been alive this long and not tried Cholula till last week?? It's awesome!)

      What I love about the leftover thread is the fact that, by nature, things don’t necessarily look good enough to put in the "show us" thread. The descriptions are often much better and I can definitely taste what you made. Great job.

    The Thanksgiving ham...

    Becomes a ham and lentil soup because I would hate to let that ham bone go to waste.

      Attjack, to me that's the whole point of buying ham. What good is it if you can't make soup from it.

      Leftover pork fried rice from Chinese food Christmas Eve. The trim meat from between the bones from the rib roast when I frenched them.


      Panhead John I decided to try velveting the meat to see what it's all about. No eggs for egg whites, so I used cornstarch, rice vinegar, and soy sauce. Let it sit for 30 minutes then "passed through" boiling water for ~40s.

      Fried everything up, added chili crisp. Turned out excellent and I am amazed at how well the velveting worked.


      Edit: So this is pretty silly but what the heck. Prime rib, Cooper sharp, English mustard, and chives. 🤣

        Had leftover Troutman's Red Chili. It's said it's better the next day. Well it's better whenever you take it out of the freezer. Oh, so good. Going food shopping tomorrow. Getting the ingredients and doing it again. Perfect for New Years. That and a few other tidbits.

          Still had one in the freezer so, I thought it's time to do something with it. Yeah, I know, two pieces, but I count them as one. Since it's been cold, and snowing (only a little, not like what they got up at Lake Tahoe), I figured it was time to make Chili!

          Most of that stuff didn't need roasting, but those bags you see in the background were from me roasting some peppers

          which were a combination of Pasilla, Hatch, and Serrano. After roasting they went into the bag so they could steam. Need to work on that part, but, overall it worked. Now, because my wife is vegetarian/vegan, I turned part of it into Chili sauce, and the other part I added the Chuck. Let both cook for a few hours, the sauce on the stove top and the con carne in the slow cooker.

          Sorry, no action photos from the con carne cooking. When it was done, I put that over rice and thought it was great! Then my family tried the vegan and con carne and told me they were too hot OK, that was a first. So, plan B. Take some of the meat, grind it up, add tomato sauce and a few other things, and

            Jfrosty27 and smokenoob , thanks to both. Just used the ground chili for hot dogs (again) and it was just as good. I think it needs a bit more heat, but, that's me
            And I got to say, I miss that two buck box. I know, inflation.

            The ends that could not be sliced well turned into stove top "burnt ends". Which means I super reduced the leftover sauce and chopped up the beef. Toasted brioche and "air fryer" sweet potato fries.

            Picture does not do the flavor justice. I was really proud of this initial cook.

              I didn't mean to post this here. Too many canned cocktails I guess.

            In my experiment yesterday, where I separated the "money medallion" from the rest of the 9-lb butt to reserve for slicing, the other piece wasn't ready to pull until 9pm or so, long past dinner, so we just had a couple of nibbles. Today we had the traditional pulled pig sammiches. Heated up the meat in a saucepan with a little butter over low heat, griddled up the buns, poured on some Rudy's Sause, Bob's yer uncle.

            Right after pulling last night:

            Sammich! There is something about that griddled bun texture, just a little extra bite...

              We got a honey-baked ham for Christmas and couldn't eat it all back then, so I froze the rest of it. Then the other day I made some pulled pork, so that was the perfect opportunity to thaw out the ham and combine it with the leftover pulled pork for some Cuban sandwiches

              They were great!
