What's "wrong"?

[minor jewel]

what body part is this

[wicked kayak]

Lol it was a prime rib, Samsung camera ai thought it was raw so it made it more red. Easily the best prime rib I've ever had

[fathom bloom]

Funny thing is I know people who would order it that way

[left totem]

I'm confused bc the center looks medium well and the edges are red XD

[left totem]

Medium rare closer to rare is the best for rib roasts imo

[fathom bloom]

That's about where I like it. I'm not a blue steak kinda guy, I want a nice sear and some prep on it at least

[left totem]

Yeah. I'm not really a fan of Pittsburgh'in a steak either

[minor jewel]

i honestly thought it was some sort of lung haha

[left totem]

Maybe its because I eat a lot of meat but I had no issue knowing what that cut of meat was xd

[wicked kayak]

Stack of Alaskan king crab and norweigen lobsters

[left totem]

What do those lobsters taste like?

They look like skinny shrimp. So cute

😍

[sacred field]

Those are langostines or whatever I think

[wicked kayak]

They're like super delicious prawns. Amazing flavor and texture

[left totem]

Ahhh. I have never heard of them by that name. Just langoustines!

[wicked kayak]

Black garlic pepperoni, no flop at all

[tough kestrel]

Thin crust is best crust

[fathom bloom]

Fermented garlic is kind of amazing

[tough kestrel]

I don't think I've had that, sounds like it could be good though. I do enjoy pickled garlic and roasted garlic, heh

[fathom bloom]

It's kind of hard to describe but it has a unique almost fruity flavor while still unmistakably being garlic. Worth an Amazon order, just find a reputable brand xD

[wicked kayak]

100 percent on point

Can't go back now

Yes. Yes they are. XD

[wicked kayak]

iykyk kinda thing

legit phnom penh have organ meat, some westerners won't dig

[wild vapor]

Oh what kind? Normally we get pho with the usual tripe, meatball, beef and tendons as the standard fare

[wicked kayak]

usually ground pork, stomach, liver and sometimes blood cubes

dry version of the same dish

[wild vapor]

sounds good, reminds me of boat noodles

though lamb offal soup is great as well

[wild vapor]

Breaking the fast lol

[tough kestrel]

Looks delicious! How do you do your rice? I can do basic rice but any time I try to get fancy with it, I seem to mess it up.

[twilit pond]

Made some fun cookies with the kids today.

[waxen junco]

[wicked kayak]

Went to a uni processing factory

[tough kestrel]

...what does it taste like?

[wicked kayak]

uni is like buttery and briney

the texture is unique, and its very expensive

that tray was probably around $110 USD

[dull quail]

fascinating

i dont think i knew people actually ate sea urchin

[tough kestrel]

I sure didn't, seems interesting

Feels like one of those things that kills you if it's not properly prepared

[left totem]

Yup... Uni is great. Here is some Maine, Cali, Hokkaido Uni from my go to omakase

[wicked kayak]

Fancy ass artisan pie

[turbid oak]

My baking business I do on the side

Some of the sweets

[twilit pond]

Duck eggs on toast with butter, spinach, Kewpie Mayo and Sriracha.

[tough kestrel]

Looks delicious; I'd probably just change the spinach to arugula

[twilit pond]

That's fair, but I like the additional potassium. 😊

[tough kestrel]

I like the zing that arugula has. Very tasty

[jaunty estuary]

My cheesecake brings all the girls to the yard.

[tough kestrel]

Aww yiss tower of meats

[wild vapor]

Went kbbq but not great photos

Was stupid sunny outside

[left totem]

explain a high quality tongue lmao

I have only really eat tongue in tacos but never had one from wagyu before.. do you still need to cook it a long time to get it tender?

is it noticeably better compared to other cattle?

[wicked kayak]

its way more fatty and rich, definitely can tell a difference

cook to medium rare so its very tender

[left totem]

very cool.. i will have to try to get some from my supplier.. I eat a lot of wagyu but never tongue

[wild vapor]

I Always cook short time for tongue and slice thin

Make sure to remove all the outside skin as they be rubbery

[hazy basin]

[wind cobalt]

We had homemade pizza last night. Crust from scratch, sauce from fresh tomatoes. It was super good

[hazy basin]

Which cake is for your daughter? 🤪

[left totem]

Poached Eggs, Avocado, Hash Browns, Everything but the bagel seasoning, smoked salt

[gritty star]

Aside from the catnip sprinkles, I guess she could pick whichever she wanted. It's just albacore tuna and mashed potato frosting. Lol.

[tough kestrel]

I mean the catnip sprinkles will probably not hurt her, they just won't be very tasty 🤷

[left totem]

Fried Flounder w/ sour black bean sauce

[alpine ruin]

Homemade toad in the hole first time I ever made one and my lil girl she devoured it 😂

[waxen junco]

[tough kestrel]

What exactly is this? It looks kind of like a dutch baby maybe?

[winter kayak]

Oh no it’s not I can see where u might say that, but toad in the hole is sausage in batter, trust its delicious, I think u would love it

[wild vapor]

Whitest meal I have ever done lol

[waxen junco]

What is "white" about that?

I don't get it.

Just looks like a lot of really good healthy food.

I should definitely be on that kind of diet 🤣

[wild vapor]

Spinach and cheese dip in bread bowl is very white lady church brunch vibes or gathering

[tough kestrel]

Okay but then you've got dolmas, a veggie tray, fruit and... brussels sprouts?

You're just all over the place, but it generally does seem pretty healthy

Some solid dolmas sound real tasty right now

[wild vapor]

Nibbled through it while drinking a bottle of white wine was good night of munchies

[tough kestrel]

Carcuterie nights are a classic around here. Excellent way to spend an evening watching a show or movie.

[pliant jetty]

[earnest bobcat]

Damn, add a bit more rice and I can eat for 3 days

[thorn bloom]

My take on this meal would look like a diarrhoea, since I would soak it in sauce ;)

[winter kayak]

Hahaha 🤣 I did soak it in the sauce I love it and the other half makes me jerk chicken and rice once a week bloody love it

[twilit pond]

Chicken Tinga Poblana, we added some green onions, cotija and queso fresco cheese to make burritos.

[left totem]

[twilit pond]

Pretty darn tasty, just needed a bit more solidity in the center. We're gonna add rice next time to fill it out a bit more.

[grizzled quiver]

Обычная шавуха 🌯

[left totem]

Oh. For texture

Its super tasty

https://youtu.be/QSOuWhCsYfE?si=oY-NndMqBCl-ChFg

Texture wise, omelettes are pretty one dimensional if its just cheese

They used sour cream and onion in the show

I made my own boursin with dill, parsley, chives, and marjoram

Not sure what type she made on the show

[hasty vine]

Looks like entrails but I was hungry 😄

[left totem]

Wagyu Brisket and Pulled Lamb were the knockouts

[tough kestrel]

Brisket is the one meat that I can't seem to get right. I've cooked it a fe times and it always turns out meh.

[left totem]

It def can be a pain depending on your setup!

I use a ceramic grill to smoke so its a lot more work than if you have an offset smoker that pretty does all the work itself haha

[tough kestrel]

Yeah, I've got a trager and I've followed all the recipes explicitly and somehow it still doesn't turn out right

[astral basin]

I will take all of that pls

looks amazing

[left totem]

What do you not like about the end result? Is it dry or not good enough bark? What is the temp and what method do you do?

[tough kestrel]

Both were problems. The last time I tried it it was dry and tough and the bark wasn't great. I'd have to look up the recipe I used, but it was one of the traeger offical ones so I thought it'd be decent.

[left totem]

Hrmmm. If its too dry you could try wrapping it to help lock in moisture but it affects the bark in a negative way

Just make sure to not wrap too early and don't go by temp but actually make sure your bark is ready. I don't personally like doing the wrap method and will just beat a stall on its own

[tough kestrel]

I'm pretty sure I did the wrap method, I'll probably just need to do more research on a better way to do it.

[left totem]

You can also try the foil boat method. My friends have good success with that

The biggest issues I had were not letting it get to high enough temp to render. I try to maintain around 230f but had much better success at 250f

[tough kestrel]

Yeah, I'll definitely try a different method next time I do brisket. Gonna wait a while before I do that though, heh.

Plenty of other things I can make well t hat come out great.

[left totem]

I am a short rib person myself

I always love seeing that pull back when its done haha

[tough kestrel]

I mostly just like to do a nice reverse sear steak. Super easy, low effort, comes out great every time.

The other one we do a lot is pork belly. This last time we made pork belly fried rice and it was bomb

[left totem]

Yeah I love steak I just don't count it as BBQ bc its cook time is so short lmao

[left totem]

Nice! Pork belly is great. My pork belly burnt ends

[tough kestrel]

Looks great, burnt ends aren't my favorite way to eat it, I like combining it with other stuff.

We did pork belly banh mi sandwiches a while back and they were great

[left totem]

Yeah. Thats a good dish. I make it a lot

Pork belly bao buns is also great

Also pork belly melts!

[tough kestrel]

aww yiss

Yeah I love how versatile it is

[left totem]

For sure haha

Okay all this food talk is making me hungry. I should go make lunch XD

[tough kestrel]

Pork belly fried rice (with 2 extra sections for freezing)

Can confirm, very delicious. It's probably my favorite way to cook pork belly at this point. But it's a pretty versatile meat so you can do all sorts of stuff with it.

[proven pawn]

Go to the Caribbean. 😄

[high dove]

I do one thing at a time and it takes a lot, and I use a lot of bowls for some reason

[high dove]

That would be dope

[atomic moon]

The only one of those that required time management to get would be.... maybe the 4th one, a butternut squash + coconut dumpling with 5-spice chicken thigh and a soy-ginger chicken broth

[high dove]

My hair would get pleasantly puffy again

Like when I stayed by the sea when I was in Italy

[high dove]

Oh those are dumplings

[proven pawn]

I went on a cruise back in 2014.. It was amazing. 😄

[high dove]

I thought you made pierogi

[high dove]

I had a class trip to Italy

[atomic moon]

pierogi don't usually have a sheen, and tend to be plumper

If they weren't there I'd have a grant time

Hell yeah

You happy tho, bud?

[atomic moon]

[high dove]

Well, hopefully your day goes well

[atomic moon]

Pork Belly Rice Bowl

Juicy Fatty Pieces of Pork Belly that was on the Grill served with a garlic rice pilaf with baked beans in a smoky BBQ Sauce, banana peppers, cabbage slaws, crispy onion chips and butter cream corn and a chipotle aioli dip.

The Pork belly was REALLY juicy as you take a bite and the juices comes flowing out as you taste the BBQ smokiness of the beans and the cider in the slaw, and the crunch of slightly tangy banana peppers, and crispy onion chips, followed by the rich creaminess of the corn and the salty garlic rice.

[tough kestrel]

Pork belly is probably my favorite meat to smoke, its so tasty. I've been trying to figure out new creative uses for it, most recipes are "Pork Belly + Sauce"

[left totem]

recommend google and looking at the different cuisines and how they use pork belly in dishes and go from there. smoking it in general limits you to a certain extent. if you get a slab of it you can possibliy remove the skin and fry it/roast it similar to lechon kawaili and add it back into your dish to create texture

[tough kestrel]

Yeah, I've done some rather successful experiments. I just find that most of my googling tends to reveal fairly similar results. So I've been making it up. We had pork belly banh mi sandwiches that were baller, for example

[left totem]

yeah, thats pretty common haha

you could try maybe filipino sisig

[tough kestrel]

We've pretty much perfected our pork belly fried rice recipe, and pork belly risotto is on the list

[left totem]

remove skin, fry it like i said.. smoke the pork belly

add it back in to make sisig

have to balance it to not lose the smoke tho

[tough kestrel]

Oh yeah, I've never had sisig but that looks bomb

[left totem]

what would even pork belly risotto be?

just pork belly on top of risotto?

XD

[tough kestrel]

Lol probably, but making the spices pair well with the pasta would be the important part

[left totem]

yeah, depending on how you made the risotto is important

speaking of cooking... do you watch cooking shows at all?

been watching culinary class wars on netflix lately and it has been pretty great haha

[tough kestrel]

I sometimes watch them with the gf, but I often feel like they're pretty meh.

I'd love a cooking show where it was a contest, but it was pretty open. Like "make your best breakfast meal" or something, so people could show of interesting dishes rather than being limited by ingredients or super strict time limits or whatever

[left totem]

i understand time limits because it is a competition but they are often pretty limited in terms of what you are allowed to make.. this one was more flexible which is why i liked it

[tough kestrel]

Yeah, I get the concept of a time limit, but some of them feel mega strict for no reason

[left totem]

for sure haha

I also recommend reading this book to expand ideas

has recipes but also explain processes behind them and various cooking tech

how to incorporate fine dining methods that you can use into casual/home cooking

[waxen junco]

interesting

[left totem]

I found it a very good read and inspiring! Its basically a bunch of essays regarding various methods and breaks them down into philosophy, science, technical, and practical uses then follows each method with a couple recipes. Definitely made me think about the process of cooking to help make my dishes better. A executive chef friend of mine who runs a fine dining place in Scotland recommended it to me
and became one of my favorite books.

[waxen junco]

The process behind the recipes I find very interesting.

Has anyone ever had these Australian licorice, they're quite tasty. Most candy from the USA is toxic garbage because of all the nasty stuff that gets put into them so the candy companies squeeze more money out of you.

[astral basin]

Never had australian sadly, but if you enjoy licorice make sure to try the scandinavian stuff. They know their licorices

Particularly the salty licorice/salmiak is so good

[earnest gyro]

I just looked that up, interesting. Does it come in red licorice version? I was only seeing black licorice version.

[astral basin]

I think it is mostly black tbh, at least i personally haven't seen red licorice either (didn't know it was a thing :D)

[proven pawn]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pontefract_cake

❤️

[earnest gyro]

Yep, red licorice is infinitely more popular in the USA than black licorice is. It has a much better flavor and not like the black licorice tastes like a chunk of tar.🤢🤢🤮🤣🤣

I did see a few red licorice pictures of the Salmiak, but still it seems like it's predominantly black version.

[tough kestrel]

There are actually two types of black licorice. One that is sugary with an anise flavor that tastes really good, but another that is bitter with an anise flavor that tastes like chewing on tires. Unfortunately, until you bite into them you have no idea which one you're going to get.

[astral basin]

I like the tarry ones too :D

But yeah from what i have heard candy is generally on the sweeter side in the US compared to Europe

[proven pawn]

All the goodness of high-fructose corn syrup!

[earnest gyro]

I'll have to look for the better 1 sometime, I didn't know there was 2 versions. I haven't tried black licorice since I was a kid, it tasted so awful to me back then I didn't dare try it again. My tastes have drifted away from excessive sugar so I'm more interested in stuff that I didn't care for, like dark chocolate which I didn't use to like, but now do like it.

[onyx fox]

All that yummy food and my brain goes 'I want french fries' -_-;;

I'm already down one. 😅

it's always five o clock somewhere, huh?

what's that last one, it looks like aperol spritz topped with Bailey's?

[feral harbor]

cherry Chouffe? I can't imagine

[proven pawn]

Quite nice, actually. ☺️

[feral harbor]

I liked Chouffe, it's even sold in Canada where I lived for a bit

over there I think it's brewed locally and sold under the name "blonde d'alchouffe" but the label is very similar, and so is the taste

[arctic laurel]

The cocktails are a bit older, but I thought the colors were beautiful. The one on the right is made of bourbon, Campari, Amaro Montenegro, pineapple juice, lemon juice, and cane sugar syrup.

[feral harbor]

oh god

it sounds like trouble

does it have a name?

Wife bought some Sichuan Chilli Oil, so I coated a steak in some earlier and left it to sit. Heated up the frying pan, took steak and put it in pan, and choked on chilli oil smoke.
Great tasting steak though, would recommend.

[tulip venture]

IHO, as an American with taste-blink blink-I prefer black licorice over red. Red, while having decent chewiness, is too sweet and tastes fake.

My friend does Scottish at his restaurant. Its okay

I mostly import mine from Australia and Japan

[proven pawn]

Yeah, Aussie stuff was ok.. less so fresh, needed aging.

As far as inexpensive whiskey its pretty tasty

Oh. Black Label suuucks lmao

I do not recommend z.z

[proven pawn]

I'm not a fan of peated malts, so Scotch doesn't appeal to me either.

It's only good for coffee or cooking in my house.

[left totem]

I drink either ultimate 18 or blue

But blue is too smooth imo

Its almost not whiskey xd

More in line with like Japanese stuff

[proven pawn]

The Penderyn isn't peated, so it has less of that dry, smokey edge.

[left totem]

Ahhhh

I like the smokiness a lot

[proven pawn]

That's MY pick. 😁

Yeah, I don't. Lol

It's great for a BBQ sauce.... But not drinking, imo

[spiral vigil]

Mayo Ramen with meat with a dash of soy sauce

[fathom bloom]

Just my favorite after work meal. I call it The Lazy Bowl. Seasoned rice with veggies (broccoli, onion, green beans, and mushrooms), bacon, a couple hash brown patties, and a runny egg on top. Lots of protein and the oven does most of the work xD

Lazy because pretty much everything is just "set a timer". The bacon and hasbrowns go in the same oven pan on the same temp for the same amount of time, and the rice/veggies basically cooks itself. All you're really doing is frying an egg xD

[tough kestrel]

I love meals like that

My 'easy meal' is egg + bacon english muffin sandwiches. I've got it down to such a science that it takes zero brain effort to make

[fathom bloom]

WIth prep its so easy. Chop up the veggies and freeze them in bags ahead of time. then throw them in the bowl with the rice and microwave. Put parchment paper down under the bacon and hash brown and you don't even need to wash the baking sheet. It's literally just fry an egg and wash the pan xD

While I haven't had pizza mac and cheese, I HAVE had mac and cheese pizza years ago at a university buffet (think culinary student run) and I was 🤔 and then I tried it and then I was 🤤 It sounded weird and like it wouldn't be good, but it was divine and one of the best tasting pizzas ever. I still think about it years later.

Tried to make thinner peperoni with the food processor and the meat got mangled lol.

[neat aurora]

i make homemade pizza as well and found that if you break the dough into two equal halves and then cook it in a steel pan then the crust comes out great and it's similar to a nyc style pizza.

Has anyone here ever used (or known someone who has used) the meal delivery services Factor or CookUnity?

[fathom bloom]

I have a roommate who used Factor

[fathom bloom]

Sorry should have used reply xD

[bitter cypress]

Thanks! Did they seem to be happy with it?

[fathom bloom]

The service itself, yes. Though, it can be a little pricey depending on what options you take, and the portions are about TV dinner sized (but definitely better quality, I tried a couple)

Though you can almost always find promo codes online you can use to bring it down a bit, and most of what they charge extra for is like the smoothies and wellness shots etc

[bitter cypress]

Yes, I'm aware it's not cheap. Thanks for the info.

[fathom bloom]

Like, if you're literally using it for portion control/nutrition balance and you can be satisfied with a meal a day over a week, it's not too much more than a week's groceries

Assuming you're having like, cereal or something for breakfast and a modest lunch/protein shake for lunch. That's what he was doing, to get fit

[bitter cypress]

It would just be a few dinners per week, for us

[fathom bloom]

Yeah, for something like that it's realy not terrible

But again, do some searching for promo codes to help keep it in check. They'll also send you some codes in the mail from time to time

[bitter cypress]

I use a meal kit program right now -- they send ingredients and you make it -- and I'm happy with that, but we've got some upcoming lifestyle changes that mean I'm going to need to swap to premade stuff at least several times a week.

Oh, that's interesting.

[fathom bloom]

But also and again, the portions won't be huge or anything, think a standard frozen TV dinner in terms of quantity

[bitter cypress]

And that's fine... watching calories/diet is a priority

[fathom bloom]

Oh, yeah it's good for that, because they have options where you can pick what your preferences/goals are. Whether its weight loss, protein bulking, etc

[bitter cypress]

LOL yeah neither of us need bulking. I used to do martial arts but that was a long time ago. (Gosh, that was wonderful. I could eat literally anything, and it didn't matter!) Right now just need to watch calories and carbs.

[fathom bloom]

Then yep, plus they have options where like, they have menus based on which "chef curated" the meal. I say it that way because lol marketing, but basically they have themed meals so if there's a particular theme you like you can opt specifically for those

Or just do random ones

[bitter cypress]

Of course lol... Cool, thank you for all the info!

[spare tangle]

Not an expert but a big fan of meat. This is Punta de Ganso (tip of bottom round)

[tough kestrel]

Oh damn, that looks delicious. Looks like a flank steam mixed with picanha kinda

[torn peak]

when is dinner?

lol

[spare tangle]

It tastes a lot like picanha but a bit softer and juicier.

[tough kestrel]

Sounds great, picanha is my girlfriend's favorite, I'll have to take a look at some recipes.

From a few weeks back

[fathom bloom]

I've been wanting to try it, I'm a fan of Guga Foods and he promotes it a lot

[tough kestrel]

Its like... flank steak texture but with way more flavor

[proven pawn]

I wish he didn't have a constant boner for wagyu.. it's annoying.

[fathom bloom]

IKR? Like I get it, it's going to be great but no way it lives up to the hype or the price tag

[proven pawn]

No, it really doesn't.. I've eaten beef from all over the world and wagyu isn't really all that special.

[fathom bloom]

I haven't tried it but even then I know that there's no way it can be that amazing

[proven pawn]

Considering the hype, it's quite underwhelming.

My flabber remained ungasted.

[fathom bloom]

Like, maybe if you had it on a spcial occasion out at a teppanyaki grill or lierally had it in Japan on a trip, sure, but in a general sense? Nah brah

[proven pawn]

I would go to Japan for Japan, not wagyu. lol

...I'd buy A LOT of Gundam kits though. 😄

[fathom bloom]

I'm saying to justify the hype. Like I get the hype if you went to Japan and your tour guide brought you to this place that specializes in Wagyu but like, we've been eating beef for thousands of years

There's no way it's that novel or new

Like, even if it's the best absolute pinnacle of beef it's still like, beef bruh

[proven pawn]

lol

Truth.

[tough kestrel]

My feeling about wagyu is that a usda prime fillet is like... 96% as good as you can get, where a wagyu is like 99%. Is it worth the cost for that small increase?

Maybe occasionally, but very rarely

[proven pawn]

The two I've found best are Scottish and Brazilian.. but it's been like 30 years since I've seen Brazilian beef. 😅

[tough kestrel]

Honestly, I just like to cook it myself. A good steak from costco with a decent seasoning and reverse sear is better than most high end steakhouses.

[proven pawn]

I like mine well-done, so I cook it slow.

[tough kestrel]

Yeah my partner does as well. Reverse sear is the beat of both worlds: cook low and slow so that its done all the way through, then sear it at high heat to get a good crust.

[left totem]

As someone who consumes wagyu as their main source of beef. I enjoy it quite a lot

The marbling is great. Im not sure I would eat A5 multiple times a week anymore but I eat Australian wagyu a couple times a week. Picanha is my fav cut of it or Denver cuts

The rendering of the fat is just so good and its better fat

I just get a picanha roast and cut them into 1.5" - 2" steaks

[left totem]

I do this if I want to be lazy. My fav method is a very hot sear and then butter baste till finish flipping every 30 seconds.

[tough kestrel]

Yeah, that tracks. I wouldnt cook steak nearly as often if I couldnt be lazy

Doing a reverse sear in the smoker is peak laziness to tastiness ratio

[left totem]

Yeah. Smoking is never lazy to me because I use a ceramic

Xd

Lighting lump charcoal and using wood chunks is way more effort than I want to do multiple times a week XD

[tough kestrel]

Yeah pellet grill is maximum laziness, heh. But making it easier also makes me more excited to try new stuff. One of my favorite things we've done is home made gyro skewers

[left totem]

Yeah. Pellet is definitely lazy lmao

Almost as lazy as sous vide XD

[tough kestrel]

Yeah, I used to have a charcoal grill and never liked using it because it was old and I had trouble getting the temps right and stuff, so I basically never grilled. The pellet grill making things easy means I can grill all the time with minimal effort and thats great

[proven pawn]

I want to build something like this, but not quite so big..

I'd have to lose the shed if I went that big. 😅

[tough kestrel]

Looks awesome though. I've found that I prefer compact things, if I ever replace my full sized smoker, I'd go for something lile this: https://www.traeger.com/pellet-grills/portable/ranger

I do need to get something for camping, but it won't be that.

I understand this since people like the ease and set and forget just like using a water circulator. I like the whole process of learning to keep temps and mastering fire so I could never stray from that.

[tough kestrel]

Brisket is the one thing I've never been able to get right

[tough kestrel]

Mmmm spaetzle

[fathom bloom]

I see ribs and that's all I need to know

[celest crystal]

So happy. I found it.

[fathom bloom]

Not sure I've heard of that one

[onyx fox]

Why would you eat tiger's tail O.O

[celest crystal]

Because black licorice and orange cream actually go well together?

[onyx fox]

I was teasing you about the name, not the flavor. Although, I hate black licorice, but my husband would love the flavor.

[tough kestrel]

I'd give it a shot

Thats a Monster Hunter canteen meal if I have ever seen one!

[tough kestrel]

Smoked pork belly, for some pork belly eggs benedict with some friends (didn't get a picture of the whole meal)

[quick wing]

So Is pork belly like thick bacon?

[tough kestrel]

Yeah, pork belly is what becomes bacon when it's thinly sliced and cured

[astral moth]

Smoked pork belly and kimchi is amazing too

Bulgogi Fries

Crispy French fries topped with marinated beef with a soy garlic and creamy onion sauce and garnished with green onions and sesame seed

[onyx fox]

I miss Bulgogi Fries. They are so good!!

There was a place near us when we were living in CA that did Bulgogi sandwiches where they do white rice in the shape of hashbrowns (like you get with McD breakfasts), fry it so they stick together, then put one on top and bottom. So you get some really yummy white rice on top and bottom, and then delicious Bulgogi in the center. Best kind of sammich.

[tough kestrel]

That sounds amazing

[fathom bloom]

Bulgogi in general is amazing. I haven't had it in fry or sammich form yet

[onyx fox]

If you have a place around you that does it, definitely try it. The place we lived near was always a huge line at any meal time because it was just sooo good.

[fathom bloom]

This is also not a food

[fathom bloom]

Just a simple California cookout. Grilled chicken with pinto beans, dirty rice, cilantro/grilled peppers/grilled chilies on the side, and a few grilled tortillas

[quick wing]

what's dirty rice?

[fathom bloom]

It's rice seasoned with spices that makes it turn yellowish, making it look "dirty". In this case it's cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and ground dried ancho chilies

[fathom bloom]

Oh, and if you're doing a proper western cookout, use lard. Just a tablespoon for a pot of rice makes the flavor correct xD

Don't use canola or vegetable oil or even butter, the real flavor comes from lard

It's really the secret for most Mexican cooking I've learned. If you've ever wondered why the stuff you cook at home doesn't quite taste like that really good restaurant, lard is the answer

It's not even really complex, just use it like you would use butter. Would you put a teaspoon of butter in that? Put a teaspoon of lard instead

It's all fat it's just a matter of flavor. Like, lard gets a really bad rap and rightfully so, but it's really no worse than any other animal fat

Butter included

NOMS!
