While wandering through the local butcher shop I had to stop and double look because there was some beautiful thick cut pork chops staring at me from behind the glass. Since currently I am lacking in the pork chop department (3 freezers full of meat and a pork fetish you think I would have pork […]
This dish is what happens when you walk into your herb garden and see an over abundance. Instead of trimming back the herb plants and throwing the trimmings into the compost bin I just decided to start throwing it together into a marinade.
For this marinade you will need:
Juice of 1 lemon
1/2 cup of white wine
1 […]
So my goal when making this dish was I wanted something light and easy for dinner. 1 stick of butter later I was thinking before bed I need to lace up running shoes, grab the MP3 player, and run a couple miles.
This dish is also moving close to that dreaded vegetarian line that I have […]
Mike over at Mike’s Table had to go ahead and throw down the gauntlet again and this time his poison was frozen deserts. For those who don’t follow Mike’s Blog he is pretty much the ice cream guru in my book and is always doing something cool and exciting with his trusty KitchenAid.
So when he announced […]
Quinoa is one of those ingredients I seem to run into at the grocery store and always in odd weird places so I have taken that to be a sign that well I need to use it. Luckily Kevin over at Closet Cooking has done a couple dishes with quinoa and the Aztec salad sounded […]
Do not check the URL yes you are still at the same artery clogging, braise filled, pork hugging, vegetarian bashing blog. However, now that the garden is starting to spit out some decent produce time to start incorporating it into dishes.
The joy of a salad is it can be whatever in the heck you want to […]

I have to say this is an amazing and fun concept and definitely something I am looking forward to next month.
The blog I drew […]
Another one of those I have lemongrass, ginger, garlic (duh), and a bunch of other random shit so hmmm…ohhh….marinated steak sounds awesome. I wanted to use flank steak but since I can’t read I grabbed flat iron out of the freezer on accident. No harm no foul since both cuts love smoking hot heat and on […]
Tamarind is another one of those culinary adventures I have not experimented with but want to learn. It really adds a great sour flavor to any dish and the first thing I think of when I think of sour is hot and sour soup. So in order to balance that sourness I chose to add […]
This dish is kind of my big f you to the crappy producers out there who have to scare us with salmonella in tomatoes. Weird to go into a grocery store and see where tomatoes use to be just an empty area with a sign informing us because we want the cheapest tomatoes we could […]
