Made our first batch of chicken gravy. Very easy. The flavour is quite bland...I even added some salt believe it or not.
i think if I made it with some of my concentrated home made stock it would be better. Need to play around with it.
Oh thats too bad! I've only used the beef bisto so this is good to know!

Take the glass of wine and sit...you will nap in no time
Thanks, guys.
I'm having a hard time deciding whether to take a nap, or pour a glass of wine and sit out there.

I often add whole garlic bulbs to the Instant Pot. I'd say it makes it smooth, not quite as sweet as oven roasted but still very good. It also flavours whats in my pot too.

This is an old standby in the Instant pot perogies, garlic sausage, onions and cabbage. Saute the onions and sausage. Add 2 cups 1 inch chopped cabbage, 1/2 cup of water. Put your trivet on top after spraying with oil. Layer frozen perogies and butter them. They will stick but thats ok this is about diner style taste! Serve with sour cream.

She's not pretty but she's mine! The Man did sous vide pork chops and I did Cuban-esque Instant pot rice and peas. This dinner is just delicious, the flavours are fantastic!

I didn't take offense to the challenge but then I enjoy Top Chef and such. But I really enjoy making a delicious meal and then pricing it when we we eat it. LOL we discuss this while we eat it (not with guests of course) ie: this meal cost 3.75 to make what do you think we'd be marked up in a restaurant? Its a fun game at our dinner table
I think the OP had food fun/pleasure in mind when they posted the challenge. But I wouldn't go to the grocery store with five dollars and choose dinner. All the food I buy is earmarked for a few meals.
I like challenges where I need to create a meal with what I have currently in the fridge, freezer and pantry and its a great way to reduce the odd items in my pantry.
I also find the tools I have chosen for my kitchen leads to using less expensive cuts of meat to make them more tender , flavourful etc.
I had a bad experience playing Iron Chef at my home. The Man beat me by 1 point but I stand by the fact his sister was one of two judges

My first smoker was the same design as that. (40 + some years ago) They work very well. Looks like it did well for you too. Properly smoked ribs have some tooth 'tug" to them. Falling off the bone is overcooked... at least BBQ judges think so. What you like to do at home for yourself is what matters though. edit: PS I like apple wood smoke with ribs.
Thanks for the tips!
The ribs were not Instant pot fall off the bone
But we did pretty good for the first time, they were toothsome! We'll try applewood for sure!
