Obnoxious food pics for Bruce

 

Nothing really out there except for maybe the black pasta

No idea of it's name, sorry

 

The waiter said it was some local white fish but his English wasn't great and my Italian was limited to excuse me, thank you, and the number 2

 

 

EDIT- No idea either, Bruce. I asked and they were just like this is salami from such and such place

 

Also, I was pretty much always at least slightly drunk

I made crab stuffed mushrooms

 

They turned out better than I thought for a first attempt but I already have plans on how to improve them

I'm having a grilled chicken salad. But before that I'm enjoying a glass of Four Roses single barrel fine Kentucky bourbon.

Pretty much just cleaning out the fridge. Some leeks, shallots, garlic, butter, cream, wheat beer, and salt to taste. I like it a little spicy so some red pepper as well.

I had to edit my original post because I asked if you made a base Roux then I realized its mussels and a Roux would be too thick   :biggrin:

Yeah, much too thick

 

Tonight I made catfish and fries

Rice with chicken pieces and tons of my hottest Habaneros. 

You know your meal has enough chili pepper in it if people run out of the kitchen because the fumes burn their eyes and lungs. *cackles*

I gazed at the dead, and for one dark moment I saw a banquet. 
 

Wow, no kidding: 'three pounds baby red potatoes, six ears of corn, two pounds hot smoked sausage ...'  :thumbsup:

It's cooking now... holy s--t does this smell good!

How did it taste? I like doing meals like this because they do cater for a group and basically are about letting flavors and ingredients  infuse together in a pot...like a stew. So theoretically it shouldn't be too difficult to get it right.....of course that's theoretical :geek:

I'm just curious if a 'Lowcountry Boil' is pronounced 'boyle' or 'bowl' in the South.  :p

Not too bad around here. I will say Oceanside scores correctly with a red dot 'crawfish'. Further east in San Marcos, however, right where the yellow and black dots are, they score a zero, answering "prawn" and "I have no word for this critter."

It got a 9.2 on the awesome scale. I made a broccoli salad to go with it and nice California pinot blanc. Then afterwards we all retired to the porch for glasses of fine bourbon and dull conversation. It was nice. The thing is I barely know these folks so I didn't have much to say. Tommy & Sunny liked them all so they are ok with me then.

I don't know why I felt the need to make myself chicken salad for breakfast, but that is what I had.

I was thinking about the most horrible dinner I could possibly make. I liked my idea of baked intestines completely filled with cooked sheep eyes and pig brain.

 

I think thats what I'm going to cook next Halloween.

Had noodles with tomatoes, ham, cheese and of course chili. Chili with 1.000.000 scoville, and it was tasty.  

Somebody asked me if I cooked for a whole platoon because I cut so much hot chili, his expression was priceless when I said it was for a single meal.  :devil:

You think, oh yeah, stomach's empty, so, Cheez-It Hot & Spicy Made with Tabasco--sounds good, let's do this. Then you do it. Then your gut says, this is regret, remember it.

Italian sausage, chorizo, mushroom, onion, roasted red pepper, chilli, Gorgonzola, Banana and bacon

I also had pizza but mine was just pepperoni and mushroom

 

We got it delivered from a place called Marco's Coal-Fired Pizza but my wife always mispronounces the name as Coal-Fried

 

I like to mix it up a bit but she always gets the exact same pizza, something they call the Del Re

 

 

PS Bruce that pizza doesn't sound bad you take off the last 3 ingredients
