WOW, that looks amazing! It looks like a great Fourth of July food. Could I get the recipe? :3
After lurking for several years, I have to say that this thread is one of my most visited. It's great to finally post here. I'll try to post pics of the stuff I make.
But first, a question! Does anyone know what to do with fresh Kale/Swiss Chard? I've been boiling/blanching the Swiss Chard and then frying it with lots of garlic slivers and red pepper flakes. It's pretty good, albeit very dry, but I'm growing tired of it. Any suggestions?

Huzzah for new stuff! (Also, I figured out it is simple to set a webcam's resolution higher, though I'm not sure how high is too high for posting pics in this thread so as to not mess up people's general viewing experience...)
Cheese: Knocknore Oak Smoked Irish Farmhouse Cheddar---Pretty oily, good melting cheddar, pretty tasty, and quite possibly the smokiest cheese I've ever had. If I was some manner of monster capable of devouring the chimney to a BBQ joint, it would have to be about that level of doings....
Crumble: Good Health Natural Foods Kettle-Style Avocado Oil Chilean Lime Just another really good flavor, something about Lime with a bit of kick just rubs me right period. First time I've had anything with Avocado Oil as well, kinda leaves me curious. Don't think I've ever had a raw avocado before....and raw would probably be the only way I can take it as I'm weird that way. Boiled carrots? Nearly vomit. Fresh raw carrots? Om nom nom
The greatest champion of all tonight was the Meat----finally found some freaking Capocollo! It was sooo good, easily right up there with the 2 different brands of prosciutto, and similarly awesome either cold or heated with the rest.

This is chocolate!
That looks great. I love me some chocolate.
I made a stew in a tagine for the first time tonight with lentils, chana dal, swiss chard from my garden, and topped with squash blossoms also from the garden.

Great, thank you for posting the recipe. What kind of cookies are those, and would just any kind work, or would you recommend those specific ones?

Yesterday I bought 4lbs of bacon because I don't know why.
Today i used half of it to make Bacon Polenta w/ poached eggs and mushrooms. Also made about 30 Chocolate Covered Bacon strips.
I think I have a headache now.

Lireu77 said:Awesome, dyonPT. Thanks for the recipe. With the sweet stuff you produce and the way you present it in the photos you should release a book. I would definitely buy it.

There's another poster here who links to blog posts with his pictures. I don't think anybody would mind as long as you're not blatantly trolling for hits.

Google Translate does work wonders. ;p Bookmarked.
Edit: Wow, I've actually been there before, and I've actually made one of your recipes. It was the Chocolate Loaf. It was really good.

im too lazy to update my blog as I did when I first started mostly because I'd rather post my dish of the week here and get back to my free time of gaming/reading cookbooks/puppy.
Doesn't help that I spend almost 10 hours a day in a kitchen so alot of times I'm too tired to cook as well.

for those interested in seasoning cast iron:
someone had asked about a method using flax oil here: http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=25716755&postcount=9283
well i tried this last week with a new cast iron pan after removing the pre-seasoning and sanding the bottom smooth, and the results were incredible. i've seasoned a couple previously with different oils, and this method blows away the others.
highly recommended.

Glad to hear 1st hand from someone who's actually tried it t ;-) I still haven't tried it myself since it takes a while to do and I never seem to have enough free time to pursue it. But I'm encouraged to hear that the method worked out well for youscissorfight said:

I made this last night in a hunger-induced stupor:
Curry ramen with woodear mushrooms, japanese curry powder, konyakku balls, fresh noodles, and a bunch of leftovers from the fridge including cauliflower, bamboo, green onion, and butter leaf lettuce. The lettuce was surprisingly good all soggy in it.

Thank Onk. A surprisingly pedestrian plug from the Master Chef. :O
What can you tell me about the T-spot / red dot T-Fal pans?
why pedestrian? Teflon pans are wear and tear utensils, and Tefal makes good skillets for that purpose. I'd rather replace a teflon pan every other year than sticking (sic) to an expensive one just because i shelled out big time for it. the dot thing works surprisingly well, just heat the skillet until the writing / pattern disappears, and you start with a nicely heated, but not overheated skillet.The Take Out Bandit said:

No pics this time, as the cheese was exactly the same kind as last time---only being a Raw Milk instead of Smoked Cheddar, just a little less oil and no smoky taste.
Let it be known that the Baja BBQ TIAS! make for a rather nice crumble though!

Made a rather successful Creme Brulee last night. I'd been spending time perfecting a sugarless custard/creme anglaise, mostly because I like desert but am cutting carbs wherever I can.
Experiments are fun.
That said, this one had sugar in it, but my standard custard recipe also has nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves and sometimes cardamom.
After a more or less failed attempt to use my oven's grill to cook the sugar (don't own a blowtorch), I did the toffee separately by melting the sugar in a pan until orange and slightly bitter then pouring a small amount, very quickly over the custard in the ramekins.
It had an hour or so to get to room-ish temperature, and for the toffee to cool and harden.
Pure gold

Nihilistic Monk said:Slow cooked pork burrito's Just made this the other day and it was fantastic. Really came out well just using a slab of roast pork. Stick it in the slow cooker and forget about it.
Also made meatloaf the other day, pictures in this post
Proper Ragu ala bolognese works pretty well, as does beef bourguignon after a bit of prep & pre-cooking.
GET INSIDE ME!!!
Either making my amazing sliders or sesame chicken wings today. Will post pics later

Since he never replied, I figured I'd try to help out.
Stuffed peppers are usually hollowed-out bell peppers filled with some sort of cooked ground beef mixture (beef, spices, diced onion, tomato, celery, etc) and sometimes rice (again, cooked before it goes into the pepper) and then baked. Depending on how soft or firm you like the pepper, they can be roasted in the oven for a bit beforehand too. Fill 'em with the beef and/or rice, then bake for 20-40 minutes at 400°F, give or take. You can top them with cheese near the end, as well.
Afternoon, all. been awhile.
I found this recipe on tastespotting awhile back.

I cooked pork ribs for my family 4th of July get together over the weekend.
I started off with a dry rub consisting of:
-chili powder
-cumin
-salt
-pepper
-garlic powder
-paprika
From there I grilled the racks for about 8 minutes on each side and removed from the grill. After removing them from the grill I wrapped the ribs in foil and put them back on the grill for 2 hours. After the 2 hours I took the ribs out of the foil and cooked for another 10 minutes or so while saucing the ribs. Here is how they looked right before pulling them from the grill:
They were some of the best ribs I have ever tasted.
