Got some discounted beef and pork. Grabbed some rutabagas, potatoes, and parsnips and made a boiled dinner. It was really good.

Made a boiled dinner tonight. Took some discounted beef, cut it into large chunks, then simmered it for 2.5 hours or so. Had the water well salted and seasoned with thyme and rosemary. Then I added shallots, potatoes, and celery. Let it simmer for another hour. The broth I strained and served as a first course, after putting it in the broiler for a bit with some croutons and cheese. The beef was tender and tasty and the veg was great as well. Delicious. Really easy too.

If you're gonna use something famous for slingin meat people will notice they're getting a meatless alternative I can see not wanting to be known as the "dick cheese" company but they should have picked a different symbol if they wanted to avoid that

She always ends up being the odd man out eating her own thing bc it's hard to whip things up when I don't exactly know what's "healthy" and I'm the main cooking person in the house bc of timing of when we get off work. vegetable soups and stews. also baked, roasted, broiled, or grilled vegetables.

I went to Outback and ordered a steak. It came with a dinner salad before hand. My waiter asked me what I'd like on it, and I told him of my hatred. "Unless you make it entirely out of croûtons and ranch dressing I won't be eating it, but thanks anyway." 3 minutes later, a plate full of croûtons covered in ranch dressing adorned my plate. Yes, that man got a 30% tip.

i say swears online posted:i cook with it enough where i'm always desperate for some, but i drastically cut back on the amount of bacon i bought after bidenflation. i probably buy two pounds a year now I only ever buy bacon (and pretty much all meat) when it has been discounted 50% due to being close to the sell by date save every drop of fat from the cooking though

i am harry posted:i never deep fried stuff because i didnt want to have to dispose of so much oil then one day i realized its not that dirty and now i fry chicken in oil then i save the oil in a jar and fry stuff like tofu for stirfry in that and use the bits of cooked flour for gumbo which i need to start on soon now that its getting cold enough for soup I use "waste" oil to caramelize onions in mass. Got a pan with some oil in it? Have some rendered fat from cooking? Remaining oil from other frying? Caramelize onions.

Chard posted:i dont do a lot of deep frying or bacon-grease frying because the recipes we like most can be done pan-fried or baked. keeping that much grease around for non-consistent recipes just doesn't make sense, even though we also eat bacon sometimes pan frying is the best way. 420 pan fry everyday

made a really, really good chicken fricassee for my friends recently. served it over their choice of mashed potatoes or wide egg noodles. sides were creamed spinach and baked green beans. they said it was literally the best meal of their entire lives which made me feel pretty good.

I know people like it though but fish sauce/oyster sauce never appealed to me. Makes me think of the fish factory I used to work at
