Foodies BS Thread.

Never had it in my coffee. How is the taste? Going to try it.

 

Smoked a brisket and made up some fresh cut fries to go with it.

 

did you double fry the potato's or lower heat?

 

Blanched (double fried), never made them before, but they came out amazing!

 

They have the right look!

 

Heading off to a get-together in a few with some old co-workers.
Venny kabobs...Hope they like them ,lol.

I'll be your friend!

 

no peppers or pineapple?

 

I wanted to do something a little different last night. Made some campfire food for dinner.
Grilled chicken, carrots, onion, potatoes. Then put it all in a foil pouch, one for each family member, added corn and gravy, and let it simmer in the oven for a little bit to blend the flavors.

 

Last weekend I made this for the SoCal meteor viewing "party" in Joshua Tree National Park.
4 Lbs of Peruvian Lime Chicken Bites (this is only half)


It was topped with Jalapeno-Cilantro dipping sauce.



It went pretty well with beer.

 

Im interested in a recipe...

 

I posted it in the recipe thread #12. I used 4x the ingredients except for the salt for 4lbs.

 

nice I "liked" it and didnt make the connection sorry about that. Still looks great though

 

No Bake Mint Chocolate Chip Pie Recipe
This make ahead No Bake Mint Chocolate Chip Pie tastes like mint chocolate ice cream in pie form without the melted mess. Mint chocolate chip is one of my favorite flavors, so I had to get this pie out of my kitchen before I helped myself to another slice. I’m pretty sure you won’t have any leftovers with this recipe.
Ingredients:
2 cups Benton's Chocolate Sandwich Cookie crumbs
1/4 cup Countryside Creamery unsalted butter, melted
3/4 cup Friendly Farms heavy whipping cream, cold
8 ounces Happy Farms cream cheese, softened
1 cup Baker's Corner powdered sugar


1/2 teaspoon Stonemill Essentials peppermint extract
4 drops green food coloring (optional)
1 cup Andes creme de menthe baking chips
1 cup Baker's Corner mini semisweet chocolate morsels
No Bake Mint Chocolate Chip Pie
Instructions:
In a large bowl, mix together the cookie crumbs and butter. Pat into a 9-inch pie plate. Chill at least 30 minutes before filling.
In a large mixing bowl (with whisk attachment if using stand mixer), beat the heavy cream until it thickens and stiff peaks form, roughly 3-4 minutes (when you pull the beaters up, peaks will form and not fall over). Transfer to another bowl and keep cold in the refrigerator.

In the same mixing bowl (no need to clean bowl - switch to paddle if using stand mixer), beat together the cream cheese and sugar until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes. Beat in the peppermint extract and green food coloring, if using. Scrape down the bowl.
Fold in the whipped cream until fully incorporated then fold in the creme de menthe chips and 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips. Spread into the pie crust. Top with the remaining 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips. Refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight before serving (you can speed up this process in the freezer).

 

In Idaho, this is a scone... wtf?

 

looks like fry bread to me...where was this?

 

Some 24 hour diner just outside Twin Falls. I'd equate it to an elephant ear like you'd get at the state fair. It certainly was no scone!

 

ah I see. Yeah up north here thats called fry bread. Scone is supposed to be like this...

Grilled some salmon and served it with mashed potatoes and asparagus. All went together really well.
