I love doing it man. I usually make a HUGE pot of sauce and then freeze what I don't use so that I can have some for a rainy day. This go around I didn't make that much but it's still making the house smell REAL good.

Dude, did you ever receive those Italy pics? Did they suck?
Oh yeah man I got 'em and they were awesome (I'm really sorry I thought I told you I got them). In fact, the one of the houses on the bluff overlooking the ocean was scanned and is now the wallpaper on my desktop .

Lunch today was Fettucine ala Carbonara while the Pernil (that marinated all night in garlic and rosemary) cooks slow. I'm going to do some Jerk Chicken (marinating since last night too) along with a big batch of rice and black beans.
Dinner is served around 5:30 pm EST. Gotta have a good meal in the belly before Wilma comes knocking!

I made a nice beef stew. Been in the oven since about 11am in the dutch oven. I made it the way the wife likes, 5lbs of been, 1 carrot, 1 potato, and 1 onion. (Think that she's a carnivore?) At this point the meat falls appart if you just look at it and it's time to thicken the gravy. Going to serve in sour dough bread bowls.
Tomorrow, I have some beautiful lamb loin chops that I picked up from my local farm/butcher, going to let them dry age over night <get them out of the cryo and let them breath> rub them with some salt, pepper and thyme, then grill. Might roast some brussel sprouts to go with them.
Andy, some day, you, me and smokie need to get together and cook!

Dinner last night was some steak pan fried with mushrooms in a butter and soy sauce deal I came up with. Served it with baked potatoes... not too fancy but you gotta eat

Nothing too exciting this past weekend. Fired up the smoker on Saturday to smoke some steak tips, and made a small pot of clam chowder <suppose since I am in the greater Boston area it's "chowda">.

Whipped up my $100 Chili . . . . use the National Chili Champion 1976 recipe but replace the ground beef with cubed NY Strip and pork tenderloin . . . . . in all, about 7 pounds of meat . . . . pot lasted about an hour . . . . .

Actually Rae, it's 29 years ago. Still a good recipe.
I tend to make foods the way that my family and I like them. My cooking is reserved for friends and family these days, with the occaisional catering gig. I did my time behind a kitchen line, and in front of it as well.

Ultra, this is a great thread.
