Baked taters, strip steaks, corn on the cob, shrimp appetizers. T Storm passing by.. Life is good.

I did make the scallops, and I changed the sauce from just a butter and garlic sauce into a wine sauce. It was a big hit.

Tonight: Halibut (sous vide with kaffir lime leaf, lemon, and chile) with a beurre blanc sauce, rosemary roasted potatoes, and snow peas.

Chalupa's made with crocked shredded pork loin and pinto beans. Black re-fried bean and salsa with chips on the side.

I'll probably have a Premium beer with it. Grain Belt.

Latin America appreciation night. Smoked chicken empanadas, roasted veggy empanadas with an avocado dipping sauce. Fruit salsa with cinnamon tortilla chips. Homemade lemon bars.

I'm making micheladas for everyone. Yucatan recipe:

Ice filled glass, rimmed with Tajin seasoning.
2 fresh squeezed limes (key limes to keep it original)
Negro Modelo
Dashes of hot sauce
Dashes of Maggi (Nestle product)
Dashes of Worcestershire


I may put some Clamato in there for tomorrow morning.

We are an America's Test Kitchen recipe guinea pig.

We're doing their latest recipe tonight.

We do some of their stuff as well.

Long John Silvers. Waiting for an MI.

I use them a lot too. Tonight is all me, though.

Gyros

Might make some fish tacos

I'm doing an "Top of Iowa Sirloin" steak. Used the 45-blade tenderizer, then 20 minutes in the vacuum marinade machine. Adding some potatoes to it and hoping it's almost as awesome as a flank steak. And Merlot!!! Pics later I hope...

Tell me more about this.

Gumbo with chicken, andouille sausage and crawfish tails.
