  1. Chefrodrigo,

    It stands up great to grilling, and adds another dimension to the flavor. While there's nothing like salt & ground black pepper for steaks, this is great on steaks too. Here's my version, but you can adjust to your liking.

    Ancho Coffee Dry Rub

    * ½ cup Salt

    * ½ cup Brown sugar

    * ¼ cup Ancho chili powder

    * ¼ cup Espresso Grind Coffee (very fine grind)

    * ¼ cup Granulated garlic

    * ¼ cup Ground black pepper

  2. Ancho Coffee Dry Rub


    ½ cup Salt


    ½ cup Brown sugar


    ¼ cup Ancho chili powder


    ¼ cup Espresso Grind Coffee (very fine grind)


    ¼ cup Granulated garlic


    ¼ cup Ground black pepper


    Mix together and rub on beef,pork ribs,lamb,fish. You can also mix with a little oil for a marinade.

  4. I've lately been hooked on ancho & pasilla(ground, mainly) in everything. I made some ancho butter(great on steak, veggies, etc), and both ancho & pasilla coffee rub for meat.

  5. If you google over to alt.binaries.food on Usenet, do a search on pomfret. There's a few good pictures of it before,during, and after cooking. Interesting looking fish.

  6. Speaking of Parika, I have a small tin that I got in a gift basket and it looks kinda like paprika, but it is all in Spanish:

    Pimenton de la Vera

    Agridulce(bittersweet)

    Product of Spain

    and it has a picture of a small flower-like plant that is red.

    It tastes a little smoky. Is this a Spanish paprika?

  7. One reason why we have not seen such high praise is because Monica Pope hasn't opened a new restaurant in quite a while.

    (Now let's see if Texas Monthly pays it a visit too!hehehe)

  8. And another 'howdy yall' from Austin, Texas!

    I work for a small micro here in Texas(Saint Arnold), and have posted mainly on the food side, but since this post will mark my milestone 20th post (woohoo!), I thought I'd bring it over here in the beer dept.

    Cheers!

  9. I have gone back & forth on buffets, but I currently like a few of them. While I am not a huge eater, I like a lot of different things, as well as a nice selection of veggies too.

    Chinese buffets are usually a hit & miss, and most consist of the gloopy sauces loaded with MSG, but some are fairly decent. The ONLY time I go to a buffet, I go shortly after they open for lunch, so everything is fresh and hot, and not overdone.

    Also, certain Chinese buffets occasionally have crab legs, and while I rarely get my money's worth at buffets, I can mow through several plates of crab legs. Unfortunatly, some are fried(why anyone would *fry* crabs is beyond me! They're in a shell for chrissakes!!)

    I'm also a big fan of Souper Salads.

  10. I was a big fan of Two Fat Ladies.

    I also miss Jacqui Malouf, but am pleased to say that I ran across a new cookbook by her called "Booty Food', and bought it right away! She's hot!

    I also like Alton Brown, and, of course, Iron Chef.

  11. I recently made Tortilla Soup for some friends, and I had never made it before, and it blew them (and myself!) away. If you would like to attempt to duplicate it, I used a combination of Dean Fearing's Mansion on Turtle Creek recipe:

    Mansion on Turtle Creek's Tortilla Soup

    and another(found on Google just under MoTC search) called Pastor Tom's Tortilla Soup:

    Pastor Tom's

    The secrets are the use of real chicken stock(of course), the use of Chipoltes in Adobo Sauce(not too much, this stuff is HOT!), and a little sugar(the last two taken from Pastor Toms, and added to MoTC's version).

    I thought I done good!
