Even worse is steak on a salad. I don't get that.
The steak has already won and dominated the salad by eating it when they were both alive. I eat the steak because it's already eaten the salad and I'm celebrating that victory so by putting more salad under the steak it's like saying you never really won and your victory didn't count steak. Just a horrible and unfair way to treat a steak.

Fucking communists. Even worse, it's usually well done

WRONG!!! on so many levels...
Can we talk about bacon in salads? :oops:
Wife is cooking bacon so I said the cat and I get some huh? Mostly looking out for me.
She said it was for her salad~!
I'll eat bacon in salads but there are so many others way to enjoy it.
Like plain....

I usually like my bacon on top of mire bacon.
It does fine all on its own lol 🤣

If my wife did that we'd have to have "the talk". And I might even ask to see her papers. 😋
The closest bacon should be to a salad is when it's a BLT but that's just me. I will put cold grilled chicken on a salad and definitely cold lump crab or shrimp for a Louis but that's about it for meat on a salad.

Bacon is often misused IMO. It's great on it's own, in a BLT, replacing the skin on a chicken in the smoker, crumbled on top of a baked potato, but people are putting it in the chili and chowders, in cheese, on doughnuts, stacking so much on burgers they call it a baconator, on deviled eggs...Enough! Let bacon be bacon!
But I will say this....A strip of crispy bacon garnishing a Bloody Mary is really fucking good!!!

I like frying up some Proscuitto like bacon every once in a while for a change.

Ahhh! An aristocrat pallet I see!👍
Often my choice too to replace bacon or ham in recipes but spendy. One of these days I'm gonna pull the trigger on a whole leg just for thick sliced prosciutto.

i probably misuse bacon... i put it in chili, potato salad, ham and bean soup... everything is better with bacon!! even salads!!! :LOL:

I have several chili recipes that either call for bacon or bacon grease. I always leave it out though.
BBQ baked beans though, it's a must have ingredient but pork belly is a good option too.
I make a mean smoked pork belly slider too 😋
 
Elk!!!! I am eating the last of this weird looking mother effer. All the elk I kill around here are retarded. They all have horns growing out of their foreheads….

Cap steaks in the sous vide

IMG_6044.JPG

seasoned with garlic powder, black pepper, rosemary, & thyme then sealed up

IMG_6046.JPG

rack 'em!

IMG_6048.JPG

After 3 hours in the meat bath at 135 it's time to sear!
Using a screaming hot cast iron grill w/ butter, chili infused olive oil, and all the juices and aromatics from the bags. Seared for about 2 minutes each side.
Notice how I did 3 steaks but only seared two?
Steak and poached eggs for the next day Y'all! 3rd one went in the fridge 😋

Finished!

Found a Chuck Roast hiding in the back of the freezer that had been in there for some time. Not sure if it's been more than a year but fuck it. Cut up some carrots, onions and potatoes and made a pot roast. Forgot to snap a pic. Came out really good and got eaten up the same day. The kid that lives with us that is the son of the girl that lives with us sliced off some thick steaks from the roast, toasted some sourdough bread and dipped the bread into the gravy and slapped the roast steaks in between. We had around half the roast eaten after we all ate. He pretty much devoured the other half making roast beef dip sandwiches!!!
 
Ribs braised and finished in a crock Pot. SS
 
Venison tenderloin and basmatti rice with Tonys is whats for lunch today. 20231215_140204.jpg
This is the best eating deer ive eaten, its melt in your mouth friggen tender.

(Yes im eating on my floor, dont judge me) 🤣
 
Found a nice chuck roast grocery shopping this morning and been a while since I made chili.

Toasted up the dried chilies a bit, then steeped in hot water while I do the other stuff.
20231216_130907.jpg

Browning off 2" cubes of chuck, seasoned well and dusted with flour. Also one chopped onion, 3 cloves garlic, and dry spice blend (cumin, oregano, coriander seed, ancho powder, ground black pepper, cayenne)
20231216_132812.jpg

Good sear on all sides, careful not to overcrowd the pot.
20231216_132805.jpg

Dump the onions, garlic and lastly the spices in the fat and get them opened up.
20231216_133451.jpg
Next the drained chilies, cooking off some moisture before going in the blender.
20231216_133547.jpg
In the blender w a splash of cider vinegar, salt, spoon of wild honey and some chicken stock to loosen. Out comes the glorious base for my braise.
20231216_134157.jpg
Meat back in, topped up w stock, in the oven 325 for a few hrs. Will update later.

Dude that looks fantastic but I feel like there's a side story with those two smoke detectors and band aids photo bombing the spread 😋

I took a shot at a dish I've been wanting to do for awhile...Eggs in Purgatory!

IMG_6180.JPG

And sous vide aint just for meats!
Queso!!!!! And no not that bullshit made with a brick of velveeta and a can of rotel tomatoes with chilis cooked up in a nuker people do for the Super Bowl.
Nah this is about a 2lb mix of cheddar, jack, Gruyere, ghouda, pannela, and asadero cheeses with two cans of diced green chiles and about 1 cup of sour cream.
Loaded up in the bag with no vacuum but double sealed and melted down at 175 for 4 hours

Ive been thinking about making a nice venison roast for dinner tomorrow night.
Im not sure. Dont wanna do the traditional ham this year.

My wife made a mole sauce yesterday then today she'll pan fry some bone in chicken then pull it, add the mole, and serve with Spanish rice and home made tortillas. Delicious Mexican comfort food since we're not big on doing hams or traditional holiday dishes anymore.
I also have some fresh made tamales I scored from some old lady in the Home Depot parking lot. 🙃

yeah the fire alarms were singin!!! band aid was pure coincidental.. i keep band aids laying around everywhere!! ya know, it's me!!

the fire alarms are very sensitive and it's one thing i'm not upset about. they go off before i even see smoke so i just deal with them. my buddy got the one down for me and says how do ya get the battery out.. i said idk, see the one with tape holding it together, i threw that one on the floor to open it up last time!! 😆

but we didn't burn anything!! it was just from the broiler on high...

.

not that i do it for tradition but i never buy or eat lunch meat so xmas and easter i get ham!!!! almost couldn't find the brand we like but after the third store we scored!!!!! already sliced and bagged it... ate my fist ham sandwich yesterday!!
