Food Thread- CBD On Special Assignment
As we approach the Labor Day Weekend, does The Horde have any special plans involving food? What's on the menu? That big ass steak above will involve a 2nd mortgage I'm afraid.
The Casa Mis. Hum. will be enjoying flesh grilled over charcoal. Do you use charcoal? Or are do you use LP Gas? There is no right or wrong answer. To be honest with you we have both types of grills here. Speaking of menus, do you folks plan out menus at home? If so, how far do you plan out? What happens if things don't go according to plan? For example you forget to defrost the chicken, didn't catch any fish? Do you folks have a go-to-meal that is quick and delicious? I'm always looking for ideas.So if you are grilling out this upcoming Holiday Weekend nothing like a little dessert to top off the meal.
INGREDIENTS 1-1/4 cups finely crushed Oreo cookies (about 14 cookies)
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin
1-3/4 cups cold 2% milk, divided
20 large marshmallows
3 tablespoons green creme de menthe
3 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 package (3.9 ounces) instant chocolate pudding mix
1 cup heavy whipping cream DIRECTIONS
In a small bowl, mix crushed cookies and melted butter. Reserve 3 tablespoons for topping. Press remaining mixture onto bottom of a greased 8-in. square baking dish. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
In a large microwave-safe bowl, sprinkle gelatin over 1/2 cup cold milk; let stand 1 minute. Microwave on high for 30-40 seconds. Stir until gelatin is completely dissolved. Add marshmallows; cook 1-2 minutes longer or until marshmallows are puffed; stir until smooth. Stir in creme de menthe. Refrigerate 15-20 minutes or until cold but not set, stirring often.
Meanwhile, in a small bowl, gradually beat cream cheese until smooth. In another bowl, whisk pudding mix and remaining cold milk. Gradually beat into cream cheese.
In a large bowl, beat cream until soft peaks form; fold into marshmallow mixture. Spoon half of the mixture over prepared crust; refrigerate 10 minutes. Layer with pudding mixture and remaining marshmallow mixture; top with reserved crumbs. Refrigerate 2 hours or until set. Yield: 9 servings.
We've been making this for a couple of years now for holidays and special occasions. It is tasty.

If ifs and buts were candies and nuts we'd all have a merry Christmas Might, could, maybe.......Yet the average lifespan continues to increase.
Everyone knows that water is the healthiest thing you can drink — but science suggests drinking from plastic water bottles might not be the best thing for you or the environment. While a bottled beverage here and there won't exactly destroy your body and the Earth, here's exactly why you should avoid drinking from plastic water bottles as much as you can — and that goes for disposable and reusable ones.You have to be kidding? A Valu-Rite sammich.
We all try to smuggle food or alcohol into places they're not allowed. Whether it be movie theaters or sporting arenas, we'd rather bring our own stuff in to save some money. There's also plenty of hilarious tales about the more creative food smugglers, regardless of whether they succeed or not. This "vodka sandwich" escapade, for example, is a hilarious example of someone getting a little too creative.
As we approach Labor Day let us not forget that autumn is right around the corner. Nothing like warm apple cider and pumpkin
Thanks for stopping by this afternoon. I have it on good authority CBD will be back next week, tanned, rested and ready to go.

A few years ago we had a freak spring storm that knocked out the power in our area for a few days. On the second day the local grocery store was a distribution point for free bags of ice and we happened to be passing by when the truck arrived. People were acting like animals for free bags of ice and it had only been about 48 hours. I pointed this out to WeaselWoman, and asked her to imaging how they would be acting if they hadn't had anything to eat for a week.

Here's a quick dinner:
Italian Sausage....or whatever kind you want. sliced in small rounds.
Saute in butter/oil mixture. I use either olive or avocado oil.
When browned throw in some slice/chopped peppers. Red, yellow, orange or all of the above. (Not a fan of green)
One large onion...sliced however you like.
Add some more oil if necessary and salt and pepper.
Throw in some Italian seasoning mixture.
Let them cook together for about 5 - 10 minutes.
Throw in some chopped garlic and saute for a couple of minutes.
Add some chicken broth (or broth of your choosing) and some white wine if you like.
Let it simmer for a while.
Serve over whatever you like...or nothing at all.

Aperol is like the friendly version of Campari.
Less bitter, sweeter, fruitier, more citrusy.
Very usable as it's in a bunch of cocktails. Not particularly expensive. Worth buying.
Posted by: naturalfake at August 27, 2017 04:34 PM (NyJwR)
I wouldn't have guessed *any* of those were the culprits.
Interesting.
Hard to believe that these nationalities altogether amount to a fraction of the criminal aliens from Mexico/Central America in custody in the US. No - impossible to believe, in fact. Which means we're actually getting cooperation from the main sources of illegals (winning!).
And Eritrea? At least a while ago, the country had no crime to speak of. One big small town in terms of ethics and treatment of each other, far as I could tell from traveling all over it. That's a real puzzler.
But ..... but .... but ..... how can the "judiciary" allow this outrage to happen? Surely the executive branch has no authority to, you know, conduct foreign relations - I learned that from "courts" in the last 7 months. Oh yeah there's laws and shit, but there must be a campaign statement or an analysis by Al Sharpton or Barbara Lee that a "court" can rely on to usurp additional authority. We can only hope.

Mexican rice is always on hand (rice, salsa/sauce, chicken stock, onions, canned chiles), refritos are from a can, unfinished tortillas keep well in the frig.

I've only had a gas grill for a short time. Sure it was convenient, but the taste was sub-par. Now it's nothing but a combination of charcoal and wood from especially aromatic trees.
The fat dripping on aromatic wood, causing a sudden outburst of scented flavor and char -- well it's something you want.
Posted by: Slippery Slope Salesman at August 27, 2017 04:42 PM (EgwCt)
Again, the fact that these 4 very small sources of illegals in the US (Eritrea case still puzzles me), and specifically criminal aliens, are the "hold-outs" is encouraging. It means that the main sources have buckled and are playing ball.

Methanol aka wood grain alcohol.
Fun fact: All alcoholic beverages contain methanol in small amounts. It comes from pectin.
Fun Fact: The antidote for methanol poisoning is to drink a lot of ethanol. Your body can only process one kind of alcohol at a time, and ethanol has the right of way. As your body process the ethanol, the methanol has time to be excreted from your body via the lungs before it gets broken down into formic acid and various aldehydes, which are actually what harms your body.
So, alcoholic beverages are their own antidote...

I bought my son an expensive set of cook books written by a former tech dude who took a hiatus to examine cooking in a sci-ency way. I eventually got a chance to peruse the section on grilling and remember that dripping fat on a flaming ember did especially delicious things to the meat above. The resulting tongue of flame seared the outer meat in a measurably and sci-ency and most delicious way.
Charcoal will do that somewhat, wood does it better, but propane hardly at all.

By the by. If anyone is interested. Baking cheesecake for real, from real ingredients isn't difficult but it does take some practice. Even your mistakes will be very tasty. The trick is not having the cake crack (which you can cover up with a frosting)
"Junior's Cheesecake Cookbook" by Alan Rosen and Beth Allen (available on amazon) are the original recipes from Juniors in NYC. If you can read, and don't mind the labor, you can make most excellent cheesecake.

Pumpkin pie is like an e_____n in a can. (Redacted 'cause it's Sunday).
There are so many heart healthy vasodilators in properly made pumpkin pie -- well here's a partial list:
pumpkin - lots and lots in pumpkin
ginger - doesn't take much
cinnamon - doesn't take much, but not many say there's too much
There's a Moron who uses the German word for 'morning wood' in his nic who probably could explain what pumpkin pie does to nocturnal dreams.
Spoiler alert: they're seldom PG rated.

Buy a already made Keebler graham or shortbread crust.
SF Jello - raspberry, lime, lemon, strawberry, et .
Yogurt - same flavor as jello
Cool Whip.
You make the jello, stir in the yogurt & cool whip, pour in in the crust, and stick in frig/freezer.
I used SF stuff, but you could probably also use the regular jello, cool whip, and yogurt. I sometimes would add real fruit too, if taking somewhere, and put fruit on top and make fancy schmancy.
The exact quantities for the pie are probably at the Keebler site...or somewhere else on internet. Or if anyone is super interested, I'll look for my copy.
P.S. I liked the freezer texture, but most like the frig texture.

A few years back, I had the most delicious, refreshing herbal lemonade purchased from a Mennonite festival booth. I do not recall for sure whether it was supposed to be lavender lemonade or basil lemonade.
I've been trying to replicate it at home, and I think I've finally found the secret ingredient -- french tarragon.
I use a vegetable peeler to peel strips from the outer layer of (clean) lemons. Then I cut up and press the fruit for juice. I put the zest strips in the juice and add water until they are submerged. The strips should not be left in much more than an hour because they get bitter tasting after awhile.
Then I put tarragon sprigs in the lemonade and muddle/bruise the leaves and let it set for awhile, like overnight.
Sweeten very lightly with sugar or honey and dilute it further if required until it tastes light and refreshing.
Yum! For some reason I got better results with tarragon than I did with basil.

@209
Thanks for that. I think what got me interested was a news account of people getting raw milk from farmers and making their own yogurt. The government people got upset because the raw milk wasn't pasteurized.
There was also some news about government regulation of cheese making. Commercial vendors were using wooden boards (which can't be sterilized according to government people) instead of stainless steel. Make no never mind that the cheese makers have been using wooden boards for multiple hundreds of years.

A cop called Praeger the other day. Told that their people were told by the chief of police that there would be no arrests. And that they would not interfere.
The implication was that if they did their job as police, they would face consequences one way or another. Either from the department or city hall.

But, commenters on that situation always assume that the gas stove was replacing wood stoves. This was true, in the 20th century, mostly in rural areas. Urban cooking had already transitioned to some horrible things. Gasoline-fueled stoves. Kerosene-fueled stoves. Alcohol burners.
Explosion-prone and suicide-tempting as the gas stove may have been, it was no more dangerous than the apartment units it replaced.

at this point, I'm not sure of the answer.
when the mayor runs the police department like his own goon squad, I can see him letting that happen, to appease the rioters and make Trump look bad.
next question: how many cops will be killed before this is all over?

2. Police Chief gives police stand down order
3. Police stand down
4. People who the mayor doesn't like get killed/maimed
5. Police keep their jobs, their benefits and their pensions.
6. It's a win for the mayor, the police chief and the police

Actually thinking hard about going and buying a propane cabinet smoker.
The hardware store has the last one in stock for 85.00$. I know it is a
cheap one, and I do like the taste of charcoal, but there is something
about setting the gas to the right temp and then being able to let it go
and not need to worry about adding fuel, and or wood.
Posted by: Picric at August 27, 2017 08:49 PM (uvAuw)

I refuse to have an electric stove in my house. It takes too long for
the electric burners to react. When I turn the heat up or down under a
pot, I want it to go up or down NOW, not next week when it gets around
to it. Not to mention burnt fingers because the stupid burner was still
hot -- just not enough to glow and give a warning.
