New Food Thread, No Title sorry old mike

Brussel sprouts, pan fried with onion, garlic and mushrooms, creamy mashed potatoes and pan fried pork chops for dinner tonight. Still on the stove, late dinner here.

Other than the price of Brussel sprouts right now ($3.49/lb), its a cheap dinner. $2.49/lb for the bone in chops. Total meal is around $7.50/plate tonight.
 
I'm surprised you get tri tip out there. Its kinda known as a west coast thing. Its a staple here in CA. Grilled, pan seared and finished in the oven, marinated, dry rub, wet rub, so many ways to make it. I usually pay about $5.49/lb for trimmed tri tip here (in CA). My local market does their own cutting/packaging so thats a good price. If I hit the big markets like Safeway, I'd pay that much or more, and still have to trim it.

Tri Tip is a cut that I am totally unfamiliar with. I have never seen it in a meat market or grocery store. Anyone know if it also has another name that it goes by?
 
Pork butts start to finish always good eating.

We’re having a potluck lunch at work today. A few of us take it pretty seriously. I’m bringing ribeye sandwiches plus mild horseradish sauce, spicy horseradish sauce, garlic aioli, carmelized yellow onions, roasted mushrooms and yellow & bell peppers. The boss lets office folks have a drink with lunch once in a while (anyone who will not be driving). I’m taking a 2 liter bottle of a drink I call Dark & Stormy Mk. II. It’s Coca-Cola with strong ginger ale, a little fresh lime juice, and Gosling’s Black Seal Rum. I’m a field tech, so I can’t have any of my own booze. No complaints, though. It is a great place to work.

I don't see Duke's Mayonnaise....
 
I was wondering what happened to that thread, thought I was losing my mind. LOL
That meat looks delicious!!
Made a mistake this year and planted small pickling cucumbers instead of the regular ones. Oh well, making the best of it…

I got lazy this year and started refrigerator pickling instead of canning pretty easy, I have only one pickling plant it produces way more than I can eat glad it was the only one to survive the earwig invasion

I'm lovin' what you guys are posting here. I wanted to share I've been a "Foodie" all my life. God Bless my 88 year old Italian mom . Mom & my wife both are hell on knives . Barb came to me with a bunch of kitchen junk & this badly abused 1970's Henckels 10" slicer. So started my infatuation w ebony handled German made steel. Truth be told for me ... I just like playing with these kitchen knives I've rescued/restored. Oh, & the last six years since I retired I've had the time to fuss with fancier stuff in the kitchen. 17.jpg16.jpg15.jpg

those are great knives. Good steel and will hold an edge.. I enjoy restoring things.. got into sharpening some time back and love to make them surgical sharp.
