  1. So me and my wife made a little experiment that turned out to be super awesome and tasty. There is a Crimean dish called "Chebureki", which is basically ground lamb or beef with lots of onion, sealed in a dough and deep fried. Its very yummy and has all the awesome parts like juicy meat, hot broth, and crispy skin of the dough. I also love the simplicity of a classic cheesburger. Guess what we made hahaha We took basic ground beef 80/20, added a little bit more onion to it, salt pepper, pickles, american cheese, ketchup and mustard. Quick deep fry, and wowzers was it amazing
  2. Thank you Kenneth. I usually snap them on my dining table during the day with natural lighting from a window, and a simple soft light from the other side. Nothing really fancy

  4. Simple antipasto with grilled artichokes, sopressata, proscuitto, potato croquette, parmesano Pizza with sausage, pancetta, leeks and jalapenos
  5. I made a 2 hour tri tip. Basic rub of garlic powder, onion powder, lots of black pepper, paprika, cumin. Smoked it with almond wood, and then 20 minute rest. Sandwiches are also on the way
  6. Oh my ! so many awesome dishes here lately. I've been out for a month with personal things, and now Im back into cooking Enjoying final weeks of fresh garlic so I made one of my favorite spaghetti dishes Aglio e Olio - Spaghetti with garlic and oil Such a super simple recipe, but the taste and flavor it packs is incredible guys. Highly recommend it. The pasta water and olive oil is a huge key Enjoy

  13. Ok guys, Sorry I've been busy lately with other content, but I managed to do a $5 Challenge Meal this week. Went to the store over the weekend, and couldn't believe my eyes. I found some good pancetta for $1.97 Instantly I figured I must try to make a spaghetti amatriciana. Spaghetti - $0.34 Two Roma tomatoes - $0.57 One Yellow Onion - $0.50 Pancetta - $1.97 Grated Parmesan $1.00 TOTAL : $4.48 Got very very lucky. I cut our pancetta into little squares Saute it on the skillet with chopped onion Two awesome Roma tomatoes, also chopped into small squares Saute all of those for 10-15 minutes on medium heat Al dente spaghetti with little bit of pasta water goes in, and One Dollar Parmesan goes on It actually turned out pretty tasty guys though I wish the pancetta was a little bit smokier. Here is a video of the whole process Next challenge coming is $5 Whole Foods lol its possible
  14. WOW ! That is purely amazing looks very good too
  15. I'll start first. $5 Meal Challenge - Beefstroganoff So finding a beef under $5 is not very easy apparently. But I did it. I went to our local store called "Sprouts" and "Grocery Outlet" At the sprouts I found some good deal on the thin cut steak ($2.63) Very sweet price on the onions 2lbs for $1 ($0.26) Got a large potato for ($0.69) A few mushrooms ($0.54) Sour Cream ($0.79) TOTAL: $4.91 This was pretty challenging, but I did it. I managed to make a tasty beefstroganoff with all this Video of this whole process is right here Feel free to join me guys, photos and videos are welcome. I'll be making this a regular thing. So at least 1 Challenge a week with a video guaranteed !!!
  16. Hey guys, So after going through many topics here, and enjoying every single one of them, I want to add something unique here I would like to do an interesting event for you all. Or maybe even a regular thing. Since we are all big fans of food, and a lot of us love to cook, how about a small challenge ? $5 Meal Challenge Basically, all you have is Five Dollars to spend on all the ingredients. Its okay to go over just a little bit, but no more than $0.50 cents Any store, any market, any place that legally sells food counts. I figured 4 main basic ingredients like Salt, Pepper, Oil and Vinegar - are free. Since you cant buy very little of them. The meal has to be prepared or cooked. You cant just buy a frozen pepperoni pizza for $3 and call it a day. I would love to see your creations It wont be easy, but I think this will be super fun. Anyone can join and post here in this topic. Photos, and videos of course would be even better.
  17. For lunch today I got some ground beef, ground pork, and 1 italian spicy sausage.
