Keyrock Posted April 28, 2017 Share Posted April 28, 2017 (edited) In honor of the Dallas Cowboys first round pick, I'm making tacos! Any excuse to eat tacos is a good excuse, amirite?

Keyrock Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 (edited) Behold! The Taco Charlton Taco: I need to start a tradition where I have taco fixins always on hand when the Cowboys play and if Taco Charlton ever records a sack in a game (a full sack, none of that half sack crap) I make tacos for everyone at my place. Legend tells of a time when a God walked among men. A God named Taco Charlton. Taco Charlton was a righteous God, a just God. For it is written that Taco Charlton would dispense his justice by sacking the reviled blasphemers that were opposing quarterbacks. And the people rejoiced, for the sacks were good. And after the just and joyous sacks the righteous believers that never strayed from the true path of cocaine and strippers that The Lord, Jerry Jones, had ordained, would feast on tacos. And the people rejoiced, for the tacos were good. And after the tacos the true believers would partake in the ceremonial lines of cocaine off strippers asses'. And the people rejoiced, for the lines of cocaine off strippers' asses were good.

BruceVC Posted April 29, 2017 Share Posted April 29, 2017 I had my lady friend from the strip club come over yesterday and we chilled, drank, smoked weed and just watched DSTV. Her name is Candice so that is how I will refer to her from now on She wasn't working so we both agreed this weekend would be a good time to just get to know each after the last raucous party.We had a good time and both got to know each other much better So I am looking forward to seeing her when she doesnt have to work I made a Cheese fondue for us, I made a different variety from the Fondue Neuchatel ...the recipe below is how they made typically in Switzerland http://www.food.com/recipe/neuchatel-style-cheese-fondue-108101 So I made a Rose Fondue, different because of the red wine http://ifood.tv/cheese/255722-rose-fondue It was nice but I prefer dry white wine as the main liquid base 2 "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

ShadySands Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 It's delicious Apparently it's made by aging the garlic in humidity and heat for at least two weeks. I found a bunch of videos showing how to make it a rice cooker but I'm not sure I could handle the smell or better yet handle my wife handling the smell. 2 Free games updated 3/4/21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geez, that sounds great Im sure what I am about to tell you is old news but sometimes I love to roast garlic Take 2 bulbs and separate the cloves with skin on into a tinfoil packet. Put some olive oil and personal spices, experiment with what you like Put the oven on 350 degrees F, 180 celcius. Let the packet roast for 20 minutes or so The bulbs should pop out and be crushed easily into a paste 4 I then mix it directly into butter and I have delicious garlic butter but it can be used directly on steak or toast for a delectable toast and cheese for example 1 "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

Gromnir Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 am personal taking a goodfellas approach to garlic mince as fine or cut as thin as possible to get most kick outta our garlic. mellow garlic is nice, but am pretty sure pauly would have us wacked if he found out we were indulging.

BruceVC Posted May 20, 2017 Share Posted May 20, 2017 Candice and her friend came over today for a barbeque, I really like her but its not sustainable due to her working hours. She works Mon-Thursday 2 pm-3 am, Saturday sometimes Its strange but I cannot ever visit the club any women works if Im seeing her.....I am not sure why because its not like we dating and Im not judgemental or weird about what she does obviously. It happened the last time.,.....anyway its like I feel guilty but I dont mention any uncertainty and Candice just assumed I wouldn't want to do. Which is much better as I dont want to try to self-analyze my own inconsistency for fear of what I may find later I find I can back after a month or so and everything is good So realistically I would see her one day as I assume we both have other things and to do. I am not going to say anything now because she has asked for no commitment and .....yes I have to say its been great seeing two 25 year old women in hot pants drinking and dancing at the barbeque and as I mentioned last time they just want to have a good day and not be pressured and she never asks any personal questions about me. I made some awesome potato bake and a bought salad and we are just having the meat ...very chilled but fun "Abashed the devil stood and felt how awful goodness is and saw Virtue in her shape how lovely: and pined his loss” John Milton "We don't stop playing because we grow old; we grow old because we stop playing.” - George Bernard Shaw "What counts in life is not the mere fact that we have lived.

Gromnir Posted May 22, 2017 Share Posted May 22, 2017 (edited) steak and eggs and home fries. rib eye steak, pan seared in a cast iron skillet with canola oil, then cooked in oven quick at high heat. medium-rare. let reabsorb juices for a few minutes. at same time, prepare home fries. russet potato, bacon, yellow onion and jalapeno. bacon first. Thick bacon. real bacon. dry cured bacon. borderline blackened for Gromnir, but is a preference thing. remove and crumble. reserve a bit o' bacon grease. cook onion in bacon grease and add jalapeno after onions has caramelized a fair bit. remove onions and jalapeno from pan. add potato to the pan with bacon grease. am actual finding 2-3 minutes in the microwave for a single cubed potato works better than par boiling as as a first step in cooking the tater. we were cooking for self, so only used 1/2 potato. add a little garlic powder and paprika... or cayenne or whatever. do not cook onions and peppers and potato together. never gonna get nice and crispy potatoes cooking in the same pan as the onions and peppers. once the potatoes is golden brown and crispy, throw the onions and peppers and bacon back in the pan a minute or two before you are ready to serve. in a separate pan, with reserved bacon grease, cook egg. fried. doesn't matter. add bleu cheese & shallot compound butter to steak. we always got at least a couple o' varieties o' compound butter in the freezer. is one o' the few things which freeze well. good steak don't need butter, but figured wth. other choice were anchovy-garlic compound butter. nothing particular fancy. am now feeling full. past full. not uncomfortable full, but nevertheless am aware we exceeded satisfied and achieved gluttony. if we were gd, we would probable go out on the back porch, and shoot something small and furry... or feathered. as an alternative, we will perhaps read for a bit. annoy the neighbors for an hour or so by allowing the dogs to bark at deer on the golf course. digest contented. HA! Good Fun! ps am highly recommending frying up potatoes in duck fat. am current out o' duck fat, which is inexcusable but it happens far too frequent.

Gromnir Posted May 28, 2017 Share Posted May 28, 2017 with the unofficial arrival o' summer, am reminded how much the grilling season functional kills our culinary ambition. summer in northern california is hot. is our uneducated opinion that one o' the easiest jobs is a weatherman anywhere in the california valley(s) region(s) from may 'til october. sunny and hot. for + 5 months is gonna be same-- sunny and hot. when Gromnir arrives home and the temps at 6:30pm is still 'bove 100F, chances are we is gonna forgo any sort o' serious kitchen work. don't need to expend much effort. few places on earth produce as much quality fruits and vegetables as does our functional backyard, and takes only little more effort to acquire good meat. cooking becomes reduced to the following: add fire to some kinda meat which may or may not be marinated and/or brined. clean some kinda fresh vegetable and perhaps add minimal heat and/or seasonings. rinse/clean/slice some kinda fruit. barbecued meat + steamed snow peas + a big serving of watermelon? is tough to screw up dinner. is tough to improve with culinary sleight o' hand. sure, once a week am gonna do something different if only to prevent our limited kitchen skills from diminishing, but feels almost forced. summer is here again. huzzah. *sigh* HA!

Tale Posted June 1, 2017 Author Share Posted June 1, 2017 This isn't dinner, it's a snack. But it's so remarkable that I have to talk about it. I like Pocky, because what self disrespecting weaboo doesn't. And so I saw these Pocky Matcha Green Tea Cream flavor ones. I thought I'd give them a try. And what's so remarkable about them is they just might be the worst thing I've ever eaten in my entire life. Truly horrid. Who the heck likes these things? I want to know so I may shun them.
