Well I'd love to see your next cooking deal, but I want the Hawaii photo thread started..

I'm staring to edit tomorrow. So will probably start it tomorrow.

Ha! Just looked at the Travel Channel to see when Time Travelling with Brian Unger was on next

"Up Next: Man Finds Food: Golden Gate's Loco Moco"

****.

Now chefs can time travel.

This probably explains the whole hipster thing...

No, it's a travel channel thing, not a food network thing. Brian Unger [used to be a Daily Show correspondent] takes folks off the street and shows/explains historical events as they actually occurred. For example, in one episode he takes them to Tombstone and shows them exactly where the 'shootout at the OK corral' happened. Another time he took them to some industrial part of Las Vegas and told them about the 'quickie divorce villas of the rich and famous' and the spas and dude ranches that used to be there. Went around Hollywood showing where certain famous silent era movies were made, like, right out on the street. etc.

Not the most high falutin' of fare, but interesting historical tidbits you don't get everywhere.

When are you making that pasta?

Don't hold your breath. Nothing against the recipe, but I have other food I've already bought I need to consume first [and unlike you I don't go through whole grills full of chicken wings, or 3-4 lbs of steak at a sitting], and don't have some of the ingredients listed. Closest I can commit would be sometime soon, if I'm heating up al fredo [already jarred, from The Hill] in the near future, I might try blackening some chicken to go in it, and dropping some sun dried tomatoes in the sauce. But from scratch, strictly according to the recipe, might be a while.

So he takes the ignorant and forces them to learn things, with food?

I'm all for that...

What's with you and food? T R A V E L.

'Man Finds Food' might be tripping you up. It's a different show that comes on now, about travelling, that happens to be about travelling to find different food dishes. 'Time Traveling' is just a historical show that travels to America's touristy destinations and gives a backstory on the place in question.

Those wings were consumed by 4 guys. Well damn, let us know if you make it.

I didn't figure you were eating everything you post here. Your girth would have made national news, or at least Jerry Springer, by now if so. But you clearly cook for a lot more people than I do. Plus, I try to eat lighter these days, so rare is the day I cook an all out gourmet spread.

More of a sausage egg and toast breakfast, burger or rice dish dinner with generic salad, mode.

I've been away from work on paternity leave so I'm able to cook more now. When I work I try to get one/two nice dinners in a month that I make.

What's for dinner? Here's mine... (Part 2)
 

Here's my easy chili.

I forgot to add the 2 cans of tomato sauce to the pic, and not pictures is 2 pounds of 90/10 ground beef.



Most of the ingredients come separately packaged. Packets include: ground cayenne, paprika, cumin/oregano, onion/garlic, chili powder, salt, and masa.



I swap the dried garlic/onion with fresh. I used one onion, four garlic cloves. I also swap the chili powder for my own homemade chili-p, cut the cayenne and replace with some aleppo.



It's simmering now. Will be done in about 1 hour. I'll cool it and allow the flavor to meld for tonight's dinner. When I reheat, I'll add the beans and the diced (drained) tomatoes.



I like to play with this. Sometimes I use fresh herb, sometimes I use beer in place of the water, sometimes beef broth. To up the flavor, I usually bloom the spices in the browned hamburger. This time, I sweated the onion, added the garlic and spices, and then the water and tomato sauce, then the burger. Basically boiling the ground beef, which I've seen some folks do for a finer texture.

Just to complete the story:
7. Remove chicken from pot, let cool, then shred.
8. Put remaining sauce in fridge to cool, then skim fat from top.
9. Use blender or food processor to liquefy the sauce, then mix with shredded chicken

Tasted great. Only thing I would do differently is to put the Mexican Oregano under the chicken rather than on top; when everything was done it looked like overcooked spinach.

I have no idea how to make chili sexy. So here she is, no makeup and straight out of bed.
