  1. What's for Dinner?

    Yeah, that's on my list of things to try for sure. I've been making Moquecca, a Brazillian fish stew with coconut milk, shrimp and cod that is amazing. There's a spicy garlic component that takes it up a level or three. Love me some fish stews.
  2. Your Grilling Weapon of Choice?

    Boone, I made pulled pork for our daughter's graduation party - it was perfect. Easily handled two shoulders and got rave reviews. Best brisket I've ever made happened a few weeks ago too. Making a rack of ribs right now for dinner, first time with ribs but everything has always been so easy...
  3. What's for Dinner?

    After years of Boone telling me how great Big Green Eggs are, I finally broke down and bought one. So far, the results are amazing. Wonderful pork shoulder, terrific grilling, but the coup de grace was yesterday's brisket. I've made brisket several times, always with a decent, but not special...
  4. TV Show Discussion Thread

    Quick shout-out to Veep here, the funniest, most profane show I've seen probably ever - also ended it's run in the last week or so. Julia Louis-Dreyfuss is a national treasure and quite possibly the greatest sitcom performer of all time. If you haven't seen it, and think Deadwood-level...
  5. Fermenting Vegetables - Anyone Done It?

    Interesting, this is great, thank you. I've had something similar to this at a local brewery that I have really enjoyed quite a bit. Our CSA just started so any left over (non-leafy) veggies that we have each week may get this treatment. Also, I will add we are seriously addicted to Kombucha...
  6. What's for Dinner?

    Those pizzas look legit. I made a quinoa stew the other night. sauteed onions (I used red, but whatever you want would be fine), added in a jalapeno and then 3/4 cup of quinoa, a can of coconut milk and one chopped sweet potato. Really good Monday night, but I just had leftovers for lunch...
  7. What are you drinking?

    Gingerbread Stout aged in Bourbon and Brandy barrels last night. Really enjoying PumKing this time of year and Three Notch'd in CVille has a killer Biggie S'Mores Dark Chocolate that's unbelievable. My favorite "everyday" beer right now is probably Or Xata from the Bruery in San Diego...

    Boone - How cauliflower took over your pizza, your kitchen, and the world
  9. What's for Dinner?

    John, I tried your cauliflower pizza today - just basic with sauce and cheese. We really liked it. There was a mental switch I had to throw that it wasn't going to taste like "regular" pizza, but as soon as I threw it, I enjoyed it immensely - the second piece was really, really good. I...

    Yeah. Got home from a trip and have a random selection of hers playing. What a talent. My God.
  11. What's for Dinner?

    Homemade Naan bread is one of my favorites. I took our second daughter on a college trip a couple of weeks ago and our campus tour guide happened to be from Iraq. So we got to talking about the food his Mom made for him growing up and the fact that I make some of those from time to time...
  12. What's for Dinner?

    Link? I tried cauliflower breadsticks not long ago and was not pleased. Would love to try this.
  13. What's for Dinner?

    You could definitely eat them straight out of the water-bath and I suspect they'd be fantastic. For my money (don't throw things at me), the best way to cook a nice steak is cast iron, finishing in the oven. So instead of firing up the grill, I finished on the stovetop and the sear (and...
  14. What's for Dinner?

    My boss has been bugging me to try sous vide cooking - essentially using water to bring your protein up to the temperature you want while in a plastic bag. I bought a machine to monitor the temperature and maintain everything as needed and cooked my first steak last night. Unbelievable. I set...

    Damn son. I need to start taking pictures of my food again. :)
  16. What's for Dinner?

    Nice! Brisket is so hard - one of my favorite recipes is oven cooked with an onion sauce, but it feels like cheating. :) We just got back from a trip to Mexico for a week. We went to Cozumel and stayed in an Airbnb - great experience! We all went on a food tour of local places (side rant...

    Santa Clarita Diet season 2 just landed - 4 episodes in, still pretty effing funny. Barry on HBO looks really good too, only watched one so far, but I love Bill Hader and have high hopes.
  18. What's for Dinner?

    Been doing a lot of Mexican stuff lately. A pork shoulder with Orange-Ancho sauce made dynamite burritos and the leftovers in quesadillas would knock your socks off. Cilantro rice, Chili rice, homemade refried beans, etc as sides. Having fun with it, and the leftovers as nachos, tacos, etc...
  19. Hidden Gems: Your Favorite Underrated Flicks

    As a Sales Professional ( :p ), GlenGarry Glen Ross is a must-watch every other year. As a wine enthusiast, Bottle Shock is completely and utterly charming and enjoyable. Benny & Joon is a lot of fun as well.
  20. What's for Dinner?

    Made chili the other day with cornbread on the side. Toasted the cornmeal first in cast iron, then added in cheddar in the bread and jack on top. Oh yeah, I also coated the cast iron skillet with bacon grease so it wouldn't stick and also because... bacon. The chili was with a chocolate...
