I am clearly hanging out with the wrong friends!

 

[Captain]

Pork ribs for dinner.  Woot!

 

[TicTac]

Those are some fine looking ribs, Capt!

 

What's the BBQ sauce?

[Norm Matthews]

We also had snow... and pot roast. 

[scubadoo97]

Crab cake and simple arugula salad for dinner

 

[Anna N]

 

 Obviously my food stylist took the night off again! Chicken karaage, broccoli with carrot-ginger dressing and broccoli stem kinpira.  

[Kim Shook]

Sous vide pork chops seared after reaching 140F:

Really moist and tender.  Served with green beans, Stove Top cornbread dressing, Bob Evans mashed potatoes and jarred gravy:

With gravy:

Which I was surprised at.  I’ve had jarred chicken and beef gravy and not cared for them at all, but the pork was pretty tasty.  Rolls:

Stuffed shells

Have you thrown the brats in a sous vide rig for an easy not messy prep.?

Never occurred to me.  Is it worth it?

We sous vide-d the Costco brand brats and it worked great!  Had the last bag of 3 out of the freezer last night.  SeriousEats  brats guide was very helpful.  I chose 150F.

[Okanagancook]

It’s easy if you are busy with other things.  155f for about 45 min.  Then a quick brown if you like.  Throw some beer in the bag..or apple juice.

[chord]

Braised chicken and potatoes.

 

The potatoes were then roughly mashed with the braising liquid and a little butter. Served with baby bok choy.

 

[liuzhou]

Spicy lemon chicken and mushrooms. Buttery baked potato.

 

[JoNorvelleWalker]

Dinner, stealth hacked:

 

 

 

Duck with blood orange sauce, wild rice.  Brussels' sprouts, Extra Vecchio Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale Di Modena D.O.P. -- eg. the good stuff.

 

Last of this wild rice.

 

 

[CantCookStillTry]

Quickly spatched, blasted with a hair drier, natural assets enhanced beneath the skin with garlic paste, butter and rosemary and 40 mins later, dinner was Chicken. 

 

Something about a spatch-cocked chicken really amuses me and I have no idea why.. it seems so.. embarrassed ?! 🤔😅

 

 

Edit: Thanks to @liuzhou for solving my formatting issues!

I like to cut my spatchcocks in half and poke each drumstick end through a little hole I cut in the skin. I think I learned that from Julia Child.

[liamsaunt]

black sea bass in lemon sauce with roasted fingerling potatoes

 

[Okanagancook]

Standing rib roasts were on sale....cut off a 16 oz one inch steak and threw it in the bath at 125F for 90 minutes.  Air fryer frites.  "aah Bisto" Gravy and some Ketchup.  Sautéed mushrooms and pistachio butter carrots.

A good steak was appreciated.

[mgaretz]

Meatloaf casserole made with the last of the meatloaf, peas and smashed red and white new potatoes.  I cooked the potatoes in the IP then smashed them and combined with the peas, meatloaf and ketchup, then baked followed by a few minutes under the broiler.

 

[Anna N]

 

Tossed salad with miso glazed chicken thighs and a small dish of potato salad.
