The ribs look nice and moist!  I love those cute little Korean Frankenstein ribs.  Do not see them in stores very often...people don’t know what to do with them...especially here....not very many Koreans in town...certain no Korean restaurant.

Actually, that style originated in Los Angeles.  Koreans call short ribs presented like that 'LA cut'.  .

I first had them grilled by a Taiwanese neighbor bout 30 years ago. I tend to marinate my own but Korean markets have them pre-marinated along with other meats. Not packaged. You indicate how much you want and they put it in plastic bag for you. If one enjoys knawing on gristly bone bits they are a treat along with the flavorful meat.

When we order them at restaurants, they bring out scissors for us to cut the meat away.   When I met my wife and her family.. and we had a restaurant shortly afterward, it was 35 to 40 years ago and short ribs were always bought cut between the bones and the meat was cut by the cook according like so there was a long strip of meat with the bone at the end. It was not until my son was about 10 or 12 when I first saw it cut through the bones like it is now.  Of course that was in the middle of Kansas and it was probably seen on the coasts sooner but when in the Asian market, and it is cut like that, it is called LA cut.

Instead of heating up the kitchen further, I cooked the pizza on the grill. Roughly: 100% ap flour, 90% preferment (1:1), another 25% by weight water, salt. Toppings: roasted tomato, bacon, caramelized sweet onion, brie.

First time through I went to the bottom of the page and missed the hamburgers.  I wondered why you'd be putting ketchup on blue cheese.

Tonight with brother "Kotaneycook" we made sous vide prime rib (which was about 1.5 Lbs sous vide at 122F for 3.5 hours then I took it outside to a gas element and seared it for a crust); CSO asparagus; baked potato with fix's and pan fried mushrooms.

We are 'stuffed'.

More sockeye.  Sill overdone but not as dry as last night's.  Soave helps.  I'm still favoring king salmon.  For one thing king salmon is a lot easier to get the bones out.

 

Dessert pistachio ice cream.  My doctor tells me to eat salmon and nuts.

Poached Islandic cod loin and asparagus broth (from simmering asparagus trimmings). It was dark by the time I was done, hence the grains in the photo.

One of the rare occasions which I eat with my hands.

Because @chefmd’s son loves ketchup if I remember correctly.

I did not use any condiments, blue cheese was enough for me.  Brought those for DH.  My son loves everything.  Sadly, he is not visiting this weekend, he and his wife live in NJ.  May be I should visit them and @JoNorvelleWalker

I planned doing this with couscous rather than rice, but when I got there, the cupboard was bare. Worked with rice, too though.

Pan fried duck breast over lemon, garlic, black olive rice. Served with Shanghai bok choy.

Im guessing that salmon was a tail piece ?

 

I always try to get a piece that's closest to the head

 

a lot more fat closer to the head , and less susceptible to drying out.

 

 

The sockeye fillet I received was longer than I expected, longer than the cutting board.  I began by portioning it from the tail and working my way toward the head.  The thickest piece is yet to come.*  Jeff doesn't give a choice of fillet.  I don't think I'll be buying sockeye from him again.

 

 

*though after two nights the salmon is wearing out its welcome.
