What's for Dinner?

[Julie]

two strips of bacon cooked, and discarded, add 2 tablespoons butter to bacon drippings.

bacon butter.

James, Mike was teasing you about misspelling bacon.

 

[ibglowin]

Hadn't heard of of that before, sounds like it would go good on just about everything LOL. For all I knew Baon Butter could have been a Cajun concoction pronounced "Bay Yon" ……

Oh and no way I am discarding the bacon after cooking it!

I started 2 racks of ribs on the smoker this morning at 7:00 hand rubbed the seasonings last night. Slow smoke until around 3 will throw some wings on in a bit.

Wild rice stuffed Cajun chicken breasts and a salad. Nothing fancy, but it was good. Washed down with my Renaissance Aussie Chard.

Looks like I'll be working from home tomorrow, so I'll have time to tend the stove. I'll be making Alton Brown's Bolognese, which takes 5-6 hours.

We had a nice quiet dinner with my Daughter and Son in Law. Yesterday was her birthday and we celebrated it today. Beef Wellington, roasted cauliflower & broccoli and salad. Fruit with whipped cream for dessert and two great bottles of Brunello: Argiano Brunello di Montalcino 2004 and Tiezzi Brunello di Montalcino 2007. Nothing left to show except the dead soldiers. You will have to take my word for it. The meal, the wine and the family were wonderful.

Celebrating my "babies" 27th BD a few day early tonight!

Almost 2" thick Bone in Rib Eye steaks cooked over charcoal and Pecan wood, oven roasted fingerling potatoes with Herbs de Provence. Field of greens salad with balsamic vinegarette, bleu cheese crumbles, dried cranberries and walnuts.

Dug through the cellar and found an 07' BV Tapestry (Bordeaux blend) to pair with the meal…...

Dessert will be her favorite Carrot Cake with cream cheese icing (of course)!

On my birthday, I'll be traveling west. Starting at Rocky's and ending at ibglowin's!

Rocky, I have had those particular wine (even the same years) a number of times. They are some of my all time favorite wines. You have incredibly good taste!

Last night it was an oven stuffer roaster (on sale at my local supermarket).

Stuffed roasted chicken,
Mashed pot
sweet corn
and mushroom pan gravy
homemade sourdough bread.

In between bites a kept remind my wife how lucky she is!

Tonight it is shell steaks and baked potatoes

 

[Rocky]

Thanks, JohnT. I really like Brunello. It is probably my favorite wine and I have wonderful memories of Montalcino and being in a wine cellar, served a wonderful mean and drinking some superb wine. I also like Vino Nobile di Montepulciano, which is a town about 30 miles from Montalcino.

 

[jamesngalveston]

johnt, what in the heck is shell steaks

 

[Rocky]

James, it is a regional name for a strip steak like a New York Strip or a club steak.

 

[jamesngalveston]

Rocky. That is a special repast. Love the wine too. Every other year I have a conference in Volterra which is not far from Montalcino. I always try to spend at least one night in Montalcino. The conference is happening again this May but my daughters getting married that week so that trumps Tuscany this year. Not much else can.

Cock a leekie soup. Well, it turned out more like a stew than a soup as it was pretty dense.

 

[Boatboy24]

Working from home today allowed me to do Alton Brown's Bolognese. Pic doesn't do it justice. Its very good. Took six hours though.

Slow cooked Balsamic Chicken over rice paid with the Vidal Blanc we made this year. Very tasty.
