It's finally football time, so...I made bar-style food:

Jalapeno's stuffed with cream cheese, wrapped in thick cut applewood bacon, with Chip & Queso (topped off with a lot of pico de gallo).

 

Smoked chicken breast, squash and stuffing.

 

Steak and ravioli, both incredibly tender.

 

Made some chili oil. Made some wontons. Introduced them to each other.

 

Oh yes! That sounds so good right now (and any time).

 

Yum!

 

Bacon Honey Sriracha Deviled Eggs

 

Looks great, never tried that

 

Thank you !

 

Sweet and sour chicken. I cheated on this one and used Chick-fil-a nuggets.

 

Garlic Confit Grilled Ham and Cheese.



The Garlic Confit



Prior to grilling

 

yum!

looks great!

 

Thank you!

 

Are you pre cooking the garlic confit before spreading it on the bread?

 

I remember this now. I’m definitely trying it.
Are you just using whole cloves wrapped in foil dry or adding oil?

 

Whole cloves, peeled, with the root ends trimmed off, covered in Olive Oil and simmered on the stove top for like 30 minutes until they float. Take them out of the oil and mix with the other ingredients. Save the garlic infused oil for something else. Making mayonnaise or salad dressing.



This time I added room temperature Butter, shredded Parmesan Cheese, chopped Parsley, Kosher Salt and Black Pepper and Red Pepper Flakes.

I'm sure foil wrapped whole bulbs would work just fine too. Seems like more work that way.

I picked up a 6 ounce bag of already peeled garlic cloves from the Walmart and all I had to do was trim the root ends (they won't break down)

Previously, I had just spread the mixture on the bread and toasted in the oven for garlic bread.

This time I decided to make a grilled cheese sandwich with it!

 

Sausage skillet something or other. You know them recipes that come with certain items….

Spicy Tasso Corn Casserole

Spoiler

Started by chopping up some Tasso, Green Onion and Red Bell Pepper.



Heated up some oil in the Dutch Oven and started sweating the Red Bell Pepper, Green Onion and Tasso.



Added the Corn



When the vegetables are softened, added in some softened Cream Cheese.



After the Cream Cheese melted, removed pot from the heat and added Sour Cream, Cajun Seasoning and chopped Parsley.



Once everything was combined I added it to a foil pan and into a preheated oven for 30 min



The final result!

 

Dayum looks great! I think my wife calls it corn pudding

 

Never heard of it or made it before but it fit the theme for the Party Garage. It was meant to go in the smoker but Mother Nature decided we needed some rain this morning.

It was definitely a hit with the crowd!
