Favorite Winter Meals

[Texas Larry]

Chili, of course.

But Renee makes a wonderful beef & vegetable soup that is a cool weather staple. Very simple but absolutely delicious and satisfying. We sometimes take pots of it to sick friends/family who rave about it.

To whom it may concern:

Tonya Harding much….

[Draznnl]

This is the time of year when the humidity is down and the temps are reasonable. It’s when you can do long cooks outside without danger of melting. I’ll be using the grill for more than just sausages, burgers, and searing sous vide steaks. And I’ll be smoking away. What, I don’t know yet. But I’ll be smoking.

Oh, and I’ll be making chili and stews because I might be living in Florida, but the Chicagoan in me is still around.

And of course, that chili will have plenty of beans.

French Onion soup, casseroles, stews, chili, followed by peppermint ice cream

[captainlee]

Yes on the French onion, haven't made that in a few years. It's on the list.

[TripleB]

Now that brings back memories of my dad hand cranking the ice cream maker for peppermint ice cream. And me next to him asking every 10 seconds, "is it ready yet?"

Carolyn it is locked away in my wife’s head, I’ll find the key and post it 😁

[smokenoob]

Carolyn While not a strict recipe here is an overview: bacon chopped and cooked in frypan, add in chopped celery and onion till translucent, add in cubed boiling potato 4-5 minutes, add chicken broth/salt/pepper/ parsley simmer 20 min, add red bell pepper or carrots if you like, add graded block cheddar, add milk or cream

smokenoob Thanks

We usually don't get REAL winter, but on those super cold days chili or stew hits the spot... for a chilly day almost any soup is great but I'm a sucker for a great french onion or beef and barley

[Richard Chrz]

Pasta, red sauce.. as much as I love outdoor cooking, and I do. I cook better meals in the fall - winter- early spring.

[Tax Man]

Soups of any kind
Beef stew with fresh baked bread
Hearty pasta dishes
Bourbon

[hoovarmin]

We don't have winter, so all of the above, but 12 months of the year.

[TripleB]

We don't get much of a winter in So. Cal, but we get something. Once every 15 years or so we get some snow flakes here in the foothills. Makes you appreciate the spring.
