Means I’m not sure which part you were referring to. The spoon is half covered in egg yolkas long as was tasty

If it wasn’t tasty it goes in the trash. Life is too short for bad food.
So are you saying you wouldn’t be interested in some hairy balls? Rambutan
sorry, my last post did not come out right -- what you said exactly -- & time for bed
salty balls would be better (for some)
South Park Salty Chocolate Balls
I've always wanted to buy those at the store, what do they taste like?
It’s hard to describe but I guess it tastes like a sweet tropical fruit with a lightly tart finish and some floral notes. It’s white flesh fruit like a grape but more firm over the seed.
Hmm sounds interesting. Thank you! I love all fruit so I'm always curious with new ones

Hit with a stomach virus 2 days before Thanksgiving. Virus run-bad continues 5 days later. While it put a damper on Turkey day, we still muscled through.
1st course: Oysters Rockinfeller (oysters, bacon, mushrooms, onion, bread crumbs, and white wine).
2nd course: Butternut Squash Soup with Pumpkin Oil.
Glamor shot of the bird. Dry-brined (some would call it salt cured, but people love the term "brine" these days). Applewood smoked and stuffed with onions, and lemon, with Sage and Rosemary from the garden.
The serving table for the main course, with the carved bird, Gravy #2 (utilizing the giblets from the bird), Gravy #1 (from earlier post), riced golden potatoes, Cranberry sauce (a key to future sandwiches), Brussel Sprouts with Chorizo, Pop-Over Rolls, Dressing with macerated cherries, and almonds, and of course the trademark-level green bean casserole (mushroom soup made from scratch).
The beverage for the Main:
My lighter than normal serving...
Dessert was an Apple Pie with homemade Vanilla-Cinnamon Ice Cream (not pictured):

My wife loves filet steaks. The local butcher shop we go to charges $25/lb for it though so I buy the entire loin most of the time and cut them myself for almost 1/2 the price.

So beef sashimi tonight?

I like my steak mid-rare. I’ve had steak tartare before and don’t care for it. But with a few bourbons in me I’d try it again.

Have you tried Bo Tai Chanh? It's a Vietnamese raw beef salad dressed with lime juice. The acidity cooks the beef. Good with beer.

That boys and girls, is how tenderloin/filets are done. It's a little work, but soooo worth the price. Plus, you get the chain - the best added beef in any noodle, rice or vegetable dish - and it's essentially free when you carve your own.

I worked at a butcher shop in high school. Learned a lot of useful skills, this being my favorite! Used it during college when I was the prep cook at a local steak house cutting steaks every morning. The chain is a lot of work but has so much meat in it. Most places cut it off and toss it, such a waste.

I learned from Alton Brown's Good Eats. Prior to that, I was clueless as to how much money I was throwing away.
I still struggle on carving up chickens though. I had a friend once described it a "carving with a hand grenade". She was not wrong. But beef is so easy, and there are now dozens of videos available so anyone can learn.

Clearing the fridge/freezer makes for interesting dinner choices. Today, it was a Cincinnati Chili inspired dish. Chicken Habanero chili.
Way more kick than Cincinnati Chili, so I'm calling it Cleveland Chili... although I suspect @Rhodeman77 may disagree with the chicken for beef substitute.

We had that discussion at work the other day. Without Googling (because that is how intellectual challenges are fought), what differentiates chicken fried chicken from fried chicken?
