Foodies BS Thread.

Where do you come up with this?!

 

Thanks, fellas! I like to play with food and do dumb stuff. Would I make this on the regs? Absolutely not. I’m just trying to enjoy my time on earth while benefiting others.

 

I can't find an exact picture of what I did, but if you cut a cucumber onto an angle, then twist, it comes off and creates a little cucumber dixie cup type of thing. Drop some hummus in there, it's a simple but cool looking thing. Also found this when looking for a picture of that.




















I did the chicken burgers last night. Made a mini me for the dog.




They get a nice crust



Swiss, mayo. Sometimes your dinner mimics what you ate in college and you put less effort into it...



Vegan mayo on the right. was not a fan. Tried it before and it wasn't bad. I think this one used some sort of sweetened or flavored soy milk. Regular mayo on the left.

I am going to try this again (maybe soon) but try mixing breast and thigh together. I think I'll try a 1:1 ratio first and see how that comes out.

 

Made it with 1:1 breast and thigh. (1 brest, 2 thighs, I didn't weigh them, but it was about 1:1 )

This time I'm onto something.

Here's some of the meat smoothie:



Made 2 sandwiches. One with smaller x2 patties, and 1 bigger x1 patty.


(with some olive oil in the pan to help, with the 1:1 mix, not sure if the fat from the thighs would be enough)

Cooked, the double on a potato bun w/ swiss. I forgot to do the mushrooms until I was assembling so I had a plain cheese/mayo sando. Was still good. Still highly recommend. TBD on meatballs. Bet it would make good tacos.

 

Underneath this mountain of peppered-gravy, are biscuits.....somewhere. I need to get to the bottom of this, literally!

 

Biscuits and Gravy sounded good. Unfortunately I’m out of baking powder.

So toast with eggs sunny side up will have to do. It’s an acceptable compromise on a cold and rainy December morning.

 

The perfect football watching food: Wings & Onion Rings!

I made half the wings Honey BBQ (It was already a honey bbq, but I added raw honey to it, it gave it a good kick) & Kung Pao Stir fry. I wanted to try a new seasoning, so..we'll see how this one tastes. They cook pretty quick & easy in the air fryer.

And a side of Rings with some Jamaican jerk seasoning.




Kung Pao on the left, Rings in the middle and BBQ on the right ( I can't tell the difference, can you?)





Edit: I did not like the Kung Pao flavored wings. Too salty. I think all the soy sauce and like ingredients make it salty. I won't be doing that again!

No biggie though, you never know unless you try.

 

What if you tried low salt soy sauce?

 

Coconut Aminos are less salty. I use it to make low carb teriyaki sauce. It’s also gluten free

 

Taco Tuesday!

Homemade Refried Black Beans with Mississippi style pulled pork made with Spicy Ranch and a homemade "slaw" with red and green cabbage mixed with a Lemon Sriracha Yogurt Sauce

 

Fancy! Looks great!

 

Thank you!

 

Pot O’Red
No BS just beef, pork, chili’s, tomatoes, onion and spices...

 

How much ground chilis do you use?

 

I did a 1/2 recipe but used the full amount of liquid, ie...a 12oz. Tecate

 

Hell yeah, thanks brother!

 

Just needs beans

 

Sourdough. Bagels and focaccia. And a sandwich loaf, tbd in that one. It was very wet so I dunno. But I was making other stuff so I fired it instead of binning it. Will cut later.
