Thread: just wanted to share tonight's dinner with you guys..

Tonight we have Brats cooked in an onion and Heineken bath,then browned and thrown back into the bath...all served ontop of a Creamy Parmesan Risotto with mushroom and sweet peas...and some Bogle Merlot.

Simple and real cheap,4 chickin thighs.coated with my secret herbal mix,dredged in Flour,than fried in Bacon grease till done (about 30 mins)
As a side we have Idaho spuds,baked until crispy,I coat them them with bacon grease and salt before baking.
when done scoop out most of the spud (you can make potatoe pancakes down the road) slather with butter,some garlic salt,a layer of finally cooked bacon bits, a layer of chopped green onys,some grated cheese on to.pop in the oven till browned a bit.
Is a $4 dinner for two

Ha ha ha...Hey now, what were we talking about earlier ?

We went for sushi tonight. But Valentines day dessert was chocolate eclairs that I made this morning.

Dang, those chocolate eclairs look good!

When it's 6 degrees and a 25 mph wind all day.....Venison Chili and Jalapeño cornbread out of the oven !!! The Nessmuck Chili has (2) special ingredients...1 bottle of Heineken and Chocolate .

No added sugar:I like sweet potatoes but, most times I've had'em they were usually drowning in sweet sugary additions which is too much for my palate unless it's dessert. So we got....... Cajun spiced sweet potatoes ,onions,Cajun smoked bacon and a Habenero green chile sausage all simmered in some chicken stock,bacon fat and a little drizzle of Virgin coconut oil. It's sweet just right with hot spicy caramelized and tropical. And boy howdy do I love cast iron !

I am having problems in the area of food though.....

Y'know I thought about that. I have in my later age added a lot more veg to my diet and instead of two sausages I cut it down to one. I still eat pretty healthy but I am trying to cut down on my meat portions a bit . I am definitely getting quality though.

Here's my dinner:



I know it probably seems ridiculous to most of you, but sometimes the heart wants what it wants, or is it the gut - same thing
