Picture Thread: What's For Dinner?

[Racerbvd]

I remember coming home as kid & seeing one of these in a pot on the stove..

There are some Korean seafood restaurants in Flushing, Queens that serve live baby octopus....

It comes as parts of a seafood tower sort of...I'm an adventurous eater, but the moving pile of seafood is a little unsettling.

Slumming tonight, using up some picnic ham leftovers.



Ham & Cheese Crêpes.

Good but not as good as the crêpe I had in Paris from that tiny kiosk in the 5th . . .

That ain't slumming. Slumming is a handful of sunflower seeds and a fruit bar. Crepes are pretty high on the hog.

Cookstr - Tequila-Lime Grilled Shrimp



Bought some special Gulf of Mexico wild caught 15 count/pound jumbo prawns that the store doesn't normally carry.


I used a smidge more tequila ~1/2 cup, Add about 1/4 cup of diced Cilantro, marinade with everything but the lime juice for about 2 hours, then just 1/2 hour before cooking add lime juice.

I don't use or add the suggested olive oil, or the cummin.


QUICK sear only 3-4 minutes a side. DON'T overcook!

YUM YUM YUM YUM

Chicken wings. I put tobasco pepper, and seasoning salt. I cook at 200 deg. F and flip them every 5-7 min. Just before they are done I brush on honey garlic sauce. Total time to cook is around 2 hours. Slow but worth it. The beer helps.

This steak is actually cheaper than a Big Mac...

Go figure, this 1.5" thick AAA (USDA Choice) top sirloin grilling steak from Costco, that end up at about $3 per meal.

The leftover end up in a curry or a sandwich.

Ha. Ha. That's is actually how I mentality price meat when I buy it. If I can feed them for $5-6 per head (meat/main only) - the cost of a basic McD meal (less drink) - then I feel that I am 'within budget'.

You got it... Sometime I look at family table at McDonald with a $25-$30 bill and I'm going "You can get a Prime on sale" for less than that.

I only go there when I need a grease fix (morning after) and stick with the value deal.

Speaking of economics.........

I like the pizza on the grill idea, that looks just about perfect.
