Lasagna and a salad last night.

No advice but I cannot wait to see how it turns out. It's so pretty!

Nice!!! I'm glad you're enjoying your IP. Pho sounds good. Need to make that soon.

I've done that....the oven works as a good hidey hole.

I have that Serious Eats on bacon up on my screen right now. I want to try it also.

Purchase a carp?

You will love it. I literally could not stop saying how good it was the first time I had it.

New Year's Day dinner Cornbread-- jalapeños , onions, hatch chile and cheddar BBQ chicken wings done in the IP and finished in the CSO along with black eyed peas and country ham --OH so good. Spinach and mac and cheese. Hopefully I covered all the lucky foods. We need all the luck we can get.

I have a Gourmia and I love it. I also have an Anova. Love that too.

Thank you so much, David! I roasted it in the oven at 200F until it hit 120F in the center (took about 2 hours). Then I let it rest for 30 mins or so. Finally I put it back in the oven at 500F for 10 mins until the outside was nice and browned. Worked like a charm.

I have several really nice tuna steaks in the freezer. Thank you for posting your method! I've been googling for a while and it seemed like they way people SV it is all over the board.

Prime rib for us on New Year's Eve.

We got married on New Year's Eve, so it's a double special day This marks 17 years. We bought a nice prime rib (no bones) the other day and cut it in half. I froze one half and the other has been in the fridge on an open tray covered with salt and pepper for a few days. Here he is out of the oven. Oh it was sooooo good. Twice baked taters and brussels sprouts to go with. I had planned on piping the potatoes into the skins but I couldn't find my thingy that does that so I settled for a ziplock bag with the corner cut off.

My sink is full of dishes as I type. I'm in deep trouble. I'm not exactly sure what I'm making. I must have black eyed peas. I have some lovely country ham that I will probably put in with them....or maybe I will use some wonderful thick cut bacon. Will do them in the IP. I have city ham which may make an appearance. I have a bag of frozen collards from the garden that might come out....or I might save them for when I make red beans and rice.... I have a craving for cornbread so that will happen later. I want deviled eggs, but I'm dangerously low on 'em and my doggie needs to eat them more than I do. Maybe mac and cheese????

Happy New Year to those that are already there!!!! And, Happy New Year's Eve to those that aren't!!! Hot wings and tots last night

This might not look like much, but after a stress filled LONG day, it hit the spot. I had some crab legs in the freezer that have been in there a loooooong time, so I thawed them out and made an alfredo with shrimp over spinach that had been quickly done in butter with a splash of vinegar. Today is going to be another looooooong day. Hopefully better than yesterday, though.

I don't think you made enough food lol! Beautiful spread!

We had Christmas dinner at my brother and sister-in-law's house at 1 yesterday so we weren't terribly hungry last night....but hungry enough for something. So, I made shrimp cocktail, oysters on the half shell and some foie gras that I had in the freezer. Foie was served on sourdough bread toast along with some jalapeño jelly.

I got a couple of cookbooks and some awesome measuring cups. Also some chile infused honey which sounds interesting. Santa gave me a neat electric cheese grater --yay, my hand gets so tired doing that. Some nice wines.....a gift certificate to Kansas City steaks which Ronnie already used and got some NICE ribeye steaks. 12 of 'em! AND an awesome shipment from Bentons from a special Santa. I couldn't believe it. Bacon, a HUGE leg which is to be used like prosciutto and some country ham steaks. I'm in heaven. edited to add: somewhere around here I mentioned that my mom and stepdad sent us a nice big bag of oysters--soooo good. and Santa gave me some cool rubber type "gloves" to protect my hands while taking out the liner in my IP

Cornish game hens done in the CSO for Christmas Eve dinner.

This was brunch. Had Ronnie's kids over to do our Christmas. Venison sausage breakfast casserole, roast beef/pickle roll ups and Knorr veggie dip in a sourdough bowl. We had mimosas to go with. I now need a long nap lol.

After a day of cleaning out closets and purging (yes, yes I do pick weird times to get stuff like this done lol) I needed something fast and easy. Tomato soup made from one of my hoarded jars of juice and roast beef sandwiches on sourdough bread...lots of gooey cheese and caramelized onions on there too. Oh and some homemade pickled beets.

It worked, it worked!!! Thank you so much!!!
