I had to go to the big city today and looked for oxtails at the grocery store I went to....no luck . This calls for a trip to the Asian Market.

I just added oxtails to my grocery list. I want to make a ragu--and now soup. @Duvel was the first inspiration and now you're also inspiring me. Ox tails used to be super cheap at the Walmart, but now not so much. So, I'll look and if they aren't too expensive I'm going to get some.

I haven't had A1 for years. Might need to grab a bottle next time at the store. I like it on burgers once in a while too.

I am a heathen.

😁 A couple pats of butter in the pot and cook diced (or chopped in my case because I have no patience to cut small things lol) onion, garlic, celery and carrots until soft. Add the juice from the can of clams and a cup or two of chicken broth. Add a bay leaf. Add peeled diced (chopped lol) potatoes or non-peeled diced red potatoes, cover and cook until potatoes until they are done. Turn heat down very low or remove from heat and add a cup or so of heavy cream and the clams. Season with salt and pepper as you go to your liking. A sprinkle of bacon crumbles is good on top or some parsley or both. I didn't have the energy to make bacon lol.

I thought Lamington was the brand name 🤣

Looks delicious...but maybe not on a potato chip....

Ah! Thank you! I couldn't make out what that was. Looked like a chocolate covered marshmallow to me.

All you had to do....LOL that would take me all day and in the end I'd still end up using Pillsbury pre-made that I have in the fridge 🤣 Found some canned clams--like a case of 12 that I bought for some reason lol--so clam chowder and cheese toasties Fried shrimp (excuse the messy cutting board) and mushroom pasta Venison meatloaf. I had some with my gravy. Venison Cabbage rolls and buttered noodles

I haven't made cabbage rolls probably since the last time I posted on this thread. I've had a head of cabbage in the freezer ever since our hunter was here for deer season. Was going to make them then and it didn't happen (it will next time though because I think our friend would love them). I put the cabbage in the fridge for a couple of days to thaw out. I'm always amazed at how easy it is to get the leaves off intact. Venison burger, salt, pepper, garlic, uncooked rice, couple of eggs and some sauerkraut. Mix that all up, stuff the leaves. Threw a pat or two of butter in a skillet and cooked some onions and garlic until soft. Added a quart and a half of my tomatoes, a couple TB of white wine vinegar and a TB of sugar along with salt and pepper. Poured it over the rolls, covered and baked at 350F for an hour and half or so. I usually like to put some pork ribs in there too, but I didn't have any. Good stuff.

Yeah, if my beans etc. aren't done yet I put them back on for how ever long I think it needs and then it depends on how late it's getting --if I'm rushed, I quick release unless it's meat. If I'm not rushed, I NR.

I've just started reading through this thread on sous vide eggs and it seems very useful.

What flavor is it supposed to be?

YUM. Smithy, I think you've started a trend

Kim, I've had the horrid flu for weeks now. Still have a plugged ear, gland and sore throat. I feel for you. Get well soon. Lots of liquids and rest.
