I made a commercial-sized stockpot of ham & bean soup w/ carrots, onions, and celery in it. Simmered the 7 lb. smoked ham end for about 7 hours on low heat to make the broth. Cooled the meat, chunked it up & put back in the broth, along with 4) #10 cans of Great Northern beans, plus 3) 40.5 oz. cans of the same beans. Added some smoked paprika for a little smokier taste. I froze 5 containers of it for future quick meals, and we'll have probably 4 or 5 days-worth of eating from the remainder in the pot. Having some hot ham & bean soup at the ready in cold weather makes my wife happy. It's an easy thing to make once - and eat from many times going forward. Gonna have some for lunch w/ a sandwich.

I finally got some time to make one of my favorite recipes. Belgian style deer shanks. In September I got half a red deer from the neighbor as payment for my help with the shooting, gutting, skinning, etc. The shanks got dredged and seared and put in the slow cooker with the veggies and spices. Absolutely dynamite after a cold plunge. Not much to look at, but incredibly rich and flavorful.

IMO shanks are the perfect cold weather food. Low and slow helps heat the house and I am certain that bone marrow absorbs through your stomach wall and migrates straight to the inside of your ribs. That looks dynamite!

Finished it off after my cold plunge today. The marrow was phenomenal. I need to find a better way to get it out of the bones, though. I've been using a chopstick, and it's not ideal.
From now on I'm keeping all my marrow bones from deer and cutting the ends off before I freeze them. Wish I could go back in time and get all those moose bones we threw out for fox bait.

Hah! If I could ice skate I would give it a try. I don't have the ankles for it.
I've been hiking in Stryn though. Beautiful place. And that's where we bought my dog.

The skating is the absolute least important part of that scenario! Girl, fire, booze, etc...

Whenever I roast a chicken, I take the carcass and throw it in a small sauce pot. I grab all the last bits of veggies in the fridge and add them to the pot, cover with water and simmer for an hour or more. Then I strain it and start reducing. Basically it is stock, but I reduce it down until the whole pot fits in one or two cubes in this silicone ice tray. Let cool and then freeze. Once frozen I wrap in Saran Wrap and keep them in a bag in the freezer. Add one of those bad boys to a pot of soup later or shanks, you name it and it kicks it up a few notches.

Toasted cheese sandwich this morning. It's not fancy but I'm a huge fan of them.

never put hot peppers on a grilled cheese sandwich. On the to do list now, why did I never think of that...

No kidding. It's also on my list now.

I like a jalapeño in every bite. Layer it; bread, cheese, peppers, 2nd slice of cheese over the peppers, bread. Can't remember the last time I made one without jalapeños.

Was my birthday yesterday. Wife said, do whatever you want for dinner. I normally cook on cast iron but needed some fresh air so fired up the flat top. Grill ran out of propane real quick so I just seared some backstrap for a couple minutes. Basically ate it raw. Always wanted to do that. Come to find out...I'm fine and it was very enjoyable.

I do a recipe like that for myself. It's basically venison carpaccio. I salt the backstrap and leave it for an hour or so to draw in the salt. Then I coat it liberally with black pepper and sear it on all sides. Done.
I slice it as thin as possible and eat it with maybe a drop of soy vinaigrette, or maybe just as-is with a cold glass of lager.
Happy birthday, by the way!
