Whats for dinner???

[BETH]

So Josh what does your wife like to cook mexican style

[JLA]

You should try my smoked bacon burgers Beth. I mix 90/10 lean ground sirloin with ground bacon and smoke them at the hot end of the smoker until they are done, pile em high with fresh maters, pickles, onions and mayo. Best burgers youll ever eat..

[JLA]

She does a mean dish of chicken enchiladas and her spanish rice is second to none.

[JLA]

Oh yeah.. And Tamales. But she never makes em because it takes all day. but her tamales will make you wanna slap yo momma

[BETH]

sounds good Josh tell your wife i need spanish rice receipe

I'll PM you my address feel free to send any leftovers my way

[BETH]

never had a tamale

Becks spanich rice...

Heat about 2 tablespoons of oil in a skillet til it wisps smoke
Add about 1.5 cups of rice to brown it, stir it frequently it will burn easily.
Once browned add 1 15.5 oz can of diced tomatoes,
and then fill the 15.5 oz can with water and add it
then add 1 tablespoon of "Caldo de Tomate" bouillion. and stir it all together.
Then add just enough water to cover the rice and simmer covered until water is gone.

The caldo de tomate is the kicker here Beth. You gotta use that brand or it dont taste right. She also makes it sometimes with fresh tomatoes and chilis, but only to show off for her gramma. I get the quick and easy canned stuff. But I dont care its good eatn.

Ill also add that if you will finely dice a white onion or 2 and a bundle of cilantro together it goes great on top of any mexican food, especially becks spanish rice.

Well, Thank you MR JACK, now I am hungry, So I have to get off my Dead @$$ and on my Dying Feet and go cook. I am thinking SOS and Scrambled Eggs for breakfast. Since you made me hungry I am making this a "Whats For Breakfast" Hi-Jack.

[jack404]

Go for it , i'm thinking hash browns for breakfast after trying the mini taters

out of air dried beef for the SOS here , i may have to just fry up some 1/4" thick fresh smoked bacon to go with em too eh

enjoy!

That corned venison looks exquisite Jack. Makes me hungry for a nice grilled reuben Venison style.

[carver]

Smoked sausage, onions, potatoes, red peppers, snow peas, and garlic. Meal in a minute!

[jack404]

tonight a experiment , its late afternoon sunday actually and i'm fiddling

deer, or venison mince is a hassle , it tends to taste like it was broiled or just stewed in water when you toss a heap in a pan ..

ok big suacepan

1/4" min , good olive and sunflower oil mix ( i've added sesame oil as well )

garlic onions to flavour the oil , chilli if you wish i use coriander and lemon grass too

get the oil hot , fry and brown and crisp your herbs and such

add the meat slowly in small lots and stir to ensure it breaks up into individual ( as possible ) pieces ..

when nicely browned take off the heat and add pour off the majority of the hot oil

add 4 cups of beef or chicken stock some taters some more onions ( spring onions and shallots here but i'll add the shallots to the bowl ) and chokoes ( outta carrots )

gonna leave it on a slow simmer for 1 hour more

brought it to the boil for 5 mins and put it to simmer just now

looking forward to see if i can make venison mince taste better

thinking about tossing in 3 spoons of Worcestershire sauce about 1/2 a hour a away too ..

[jack404]

and for tonight

pork spare ribs !!!

into the oven for 3-4 hours on a low heat ..

[dons2346]

Aw man. I'm still working on left over Christmas ham.

[BETH]

what temp jack

[jack404]

3 hrs at 110 deg C 45 at 150 d C and 15 at 200 d C

this is at 3 hours and its back in and being watched

[jack404]

mashed yam's with onions, i may chuck some watercress in if its hot enough .. , corn on the cob , fresh greens ( just picked em myself ) a decent balsamic dressing and a caramel cream pie to follow lifes good eh !!

Anything better than dinner in bed when you're sick? How about a meal of grilled bratwurst, sauerkraut, whipped potatoes, corn bread and an ice cold beer?
