I don't subscribe to this theory. Chili is chili, with or without beans.

Lol I'm not fat anymore. Yes it was my choice, I ate like a ****ing cow. Stopping at Taco Bell on the way home from work plus going out to dinner when I got home. Did that for a few months straight. Switching from Taco Bell to whatever, but mostly Taco Bell. For dinner it was a lot of Mexican food.

Looks so damn good. I see she's naked, I would dress her up with scallions, onions and cheese. Looks very good man. Did you put a couple drops of Tabasco in?

Yup, she sleeps nude. That's how we roll at Casa FMB!.

I would have done some scallions, honestly. But my fridge is pretty empty after 8 days in Hawaii, and I didn't want to go out again. So just chili and crackers.

http://images.tapatalk-cdn.com/15/05...154a4f06cc.jpg



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.

That Texas Style Two Alarm is the very best store bought kit you can get.

Kinda hard to explain as you can see there's a lot going on in the picture. Basically shrimp, bacon wrapped shrimp, cactus, carne asada, onions, panela cheese, a whole green onion, a whole jalepeno and a red sauce made with dried peppers. Similar to a Chile Colorado sauce. Slap it on a tortilla and it's gold. They're pricey, this one cost $20 but well worth it.

It's actually a mortar.

But is there an area where you ask for a molcajete and it's known what you're asking for food-wise? Or is a loose definition of Southwestern food in a stone bowl?

To my recall, my recipe wasn't a New England one but from a Southerner. I even have a New Orleans cookbook. There's no one recipe anyway and mine was darn good following a business trip to New Orleans where I had some— just as good.

I'm not sure if you put a recipe out there or not. I did use the shrimp étouffée recipe. I made several rookie mistakes while cooking gumbo. As you can see in the picture to the right the thick layer of grease I put the andouille sausage in raw and that totally killed it. The shrimp was way over cooked and didn't have that pop, just a mushy texture. I need to tweak on it some more. I got the roux down pretty good.

It looks good. You could do the andouille at the front, I think, but you'd want to drain the fat off. Use it for eggs the next day. :drool:

That's pretty hardcore. I suppose it could get hot enough to melt some plastics, though. :shrug:

I make mine in the oven if I'm going for a darker color... no stirring needed, it's gentler, and less likely to overcook.

Last night from 9pm until 1:10 am I went crazy buying groceries at Safeway and Harris Teeter, roughly $760 worth including other non-food things like paper towels, garbage bags, hand soap, (6) six packs of beer and 8 bottles of wine to restock my whole damn inventory. I bought some great meat like steaks, lamb chops, and a large pork tenderloin that I am now marinating in Lawry's Lemon and Garlic Mediterranean flavor.

So tonight for dinner I made a very simple dinner of two items and followed up with a dessert.

I had two NY boneless strip steaks just seasoned with salt and pepper done on my grill pan, 3 ears of white corn cooked in salted water with two cups of milk added then salted butter and black pepper, and then finally for dessert I had a piece of Pepperidge Farm Coconut layer cake. Additionally I had two Dos Equis amber beers while I cooked and a couple glasses of a Chilean Cabernet Sauvignon that cost only $4.25 a bottle that I bought last night during a 50% off sale plus another 10% because I bought more than 6 bottles of wine.

Took only 30 minutes and an easy cleanup. :thumb:

I can't keep up with my cherry tomato production! My one plant is yielding like 50 tomatoes every 2-3 days. I have some every night on a salad and give some away but still can't keep up. Someone suggested I puree them and use as a base for Michelada drinks. Any other suggestions on how to use them? We are doing homemade spaghetti tomorrow so that should help get them used as well.

Had that same deal happen (which is awesome), and my son and I took them to the local farmer's market and gave them to a farmer who looked like they could use some free product. Once he saw the scout uniform, he knew we were legit, so all was well.

You're cool (for it). And with young kids, it's a wonderful way to accomplish a lot of great things like, well, time spent together, a great lesson, and even some responsibility. Lord knows letting the rabbits get to the veggies for a while teaches them how some things aren't a set it and forget it deal. So, from tilling the soil, to mixing in the fresh dirt and manure, to planting the seed, to watering, to weeding, to putting up a fence, to picking the produce, to making an almost 100% home-grown salad, there's a lot to be learned from it.

And that applies to any age.

I'm stunned at how many of my neighbors decide to try their hand at gardening, and can't get anything to grow. By year-2 they're hinting at questions at sit-outs of "what do you put in the soil?? I told one lady, I thought jokingly, that I put a rum boundary around the edges to ward-off animals and insects (like the wire fence didn't prove otherwise for the animals part!), and she seriously wanted to know if one rum was better than others... Where was she when I was in high school?!?!?!?! Once we cleared that up, I sent my then 12-year-old down to help her build a raised garden, help her with the soil mixture, put up a fence, and get a late start on the growing season. It worked very well for that year, and the next year she was like you and trying to figure out what to do with it all. Back to the farmers market with a load of free food for others to sell!

Lord knows letting the rabbits get to the veggies for a while teaches them how some things aren't a set it and forget it deal. So, from tilling the soil, to mixing in the fresh dirt and manure, to planting the seed, to watering, to weeding, to putting up a fence, to picking the produce, to making an almost 100% home-grown salad, there's a lot to be learned from it.

And that applies to any age.

I'm stunned at how many of my neighbors decide to try their hand at gardening, and can't get anything to grow. By year-2 they're hinting at questions at sit-outs of "what do you put in the soil?? I told one lady, I thought jokingly, that I put a rum boundary around the edges to ward-off animals and insects (like the wire fence didn't prove otherwise for the animals part!), and she seriously wanted to know if one rum was better than others... Where was she when I was in high school?!?!?!?! Once we cleared that up, I sent my then 12-year-old down to help her build a raised garden, help her with the soil mixture, put up a fence, and get a late start on the growing season. It worked very well for that year, and the next year she was like you and trying to figure out what to do with it all. Back to the farmers market with a load of free food for others to sell!

Mine are planted in a wooden whiskey barrel. After we renovated our backyard and planted the orange tree from the barrel into the ground, I needed something else to grow in it. It looks cool and the tomatoes and peppers have been growing very well in it. I fertilize ever 3-4 weeks and water every few days here and that's been it. Pretty amazed at how much production it has!

I am getting a few golf ball sized limes on my tree now too!

But I but growing fruit is lame too..........

I think it looks great in our backyard landscaping anyway with our cactus, flowers, fruit trees and palm trees. Getting to eat it is just a bonus.

Loco moco. This is a damn good facsimile of what we had in Honolulu.

Was also my first ever attempt at sunny-side-up eggs.

I really thought they were easy until I tried. It's not hard to do, but it's not easy to get right. That's why most of us go over easy. It's mainly the "over" part that makes out life simple.

I had a Navy cook show me how it's done (and for him it was all the grill's temp), and I still can't get it right regularly.
