What's for dinner?

[Catscratch]

Wife and kids are out of town all week. Lots of open fire grilling.

I never cook that good when its just me. LOL Of course I would eat a hamburger for a meal 80% of the time. My wife likes to make all the fancy stuff and cook new recipes. I will give her credit, its rarely a bad meal.

^yeah when mom is away, I grill some sort of meat, normally deer burger or steak, side of milk and Tostitoes. Maybe panfry an egg to go with it. No rabbit food on my watch.

Lol, I spend a week grilling and having a few barley pops every night; chicken thighs, shrimp covered in butter, brats, and a steak or 2. Just once I microwave a bag of frozen veggies and I'm living on rabbit food! Wish doc saw it that way!

Pork tenderloin, grilled corn in the cob, Amish potato salad, and grilled pineapple for our fourth July meal.

My wife and I just got black from our anniversary trip to Pinehurst - our anniversary night dinner was steak Diane, with mashed potatoes and steamed vegetable and we shared a chocolate brownie sundae for dessert.

Some spare ribs on the pellet grill. My family is a sucker for some ribs, I like them too, just take all day so it cuts into the chores.

Simple but good. Everything from garden except the lime juice and the thin toasted garlic bread.

It's addicting! The fun part is to leave uncut veggies out and let the kids modify for themselves. Not hot enough then add some jalapeños. Too hot add some tomatoes. Etc. Then walk away. Kids will spend all evening making their own creations, and not be on their phones.

Sharing a home-made recipe for a Tex/Mex, crockpot easy mess. Just made this a few days ago - and the family has it almost gone already.

3 - boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut into bite size chunks (across the grain for most tender)
2 - 15.5 oz. cans of each, black beans and kidney beans (total 4 cans)
1/2 - large onion, diced
2 red, 2 green - bell peppers, cut into strips of about 1 1/2" long
2 - cups whole kernel corn
1 - packet, taco seasoning (such as McCormick's)
1 or 2 TBL - chili powder (to your taste)
1- tsp. oregano
1 - tsp. granulated garlic
*** - we add our own salt to taste

Toss all into a large crockpot, cook for about 5 hours, checking to make sure chicken is done and tender. I serve it with cooked rice and shredded, mixed Mexican cheese. We also sprinkle either hot sauce or a green tomatillo-based sauce over top on our plates. (Either sauce can be added to crockpot if desired. Depends on everyone's taste preferences.) A big plate of this, plus a salad will hold you for a while!

Don’t skimp on the cheese next time

Homegrown kunekune pork chops. Fried cinnamon/maple apples out of the orchard. Fried onions from mom's garden with spicy/maple/bacon sausage from the same kunekune pig.

We ain’t from the same neighborhood. Don’t know what a kunekune pork chop is but what really peaks my interest is onions with spicy/maple/bacon/sausage. Sounds like something I need to know about even though my cardiologist would disagree.

Kunekune is a heritage breed of pig.


The sausage is just a grind from scraps mixed with spicy breakfast sausage seasoning (Waltons) with bacon bits, and a little bacon season mix. Cooked in carmalized onions with a squirt of maple syrup.

Left over fried apples (heated up hot) on vanilla ice cream. The ice-cream is the first thing I've eaten in a couple of days that wasn't home grown. Good stuff!
