So. What's on the menu this week?



Not a meal, but I'll be making cranberry jalapeno jam this weekend. Spread on a cracker with cream cheese... it's pretty right on.

I’m making chicken and sausage gumbo Saturday to bring to the tailgate for Sunday’s game.

Re: What’s on the menu!
 

That sounds really good ice. I’ve had sweet jalapeño with cream cheese before. Cranberry is probably nice. Let me know how it turns out (and send me a jar!).

😛

My wife and I make this and blueberry jam every year. This is the time of year that friends and family call and text for some.

PM him your address. It sounds like a great game day snack.

Does eating jalapenos keep you warm up there?

Re: What’s on the menu!
 

Ha Ha ! No, actually I’m not a guy who enjoys heavy heat in his food. I know jalapeños are not even a very spicy pepper, but I don’t eat them much. I don’t like them on nachos. The jelly with the cream cheese is about my perfect mix. I also like a spicy/sweet mustard with a bratwurst.

We stay warm with fireplaces. But once it gets cold we aren’t really warm again until next May.

About to fire up the Pit Boss in about 2 hours(midnight here). Gonna slap a brisket in there. 6 hours later, two chickens are gonna join it.
I made a Chicken, sausage and Shrimp Gumbo game one. I’ll try that again to help get our mojo back.

So, what food is NY known for? Gotta keep the streak going !

Re: What’s on the menu!
 

Pastrami, corned beef, pizza, cheesecake. But they play in New Jersey. Hot dogs, sloppy joes, hoagies.

Re: What’s on the menu!
 

Get a nice, thicc, NY steak for this weekend.:bng:

Re: What’s on the menu!
 

Some of the best Chinese food I’ve ever had was in NYC. And I lived in the Bay Area for 26 years 🤔

Re: What’s on the menu!
 

Joe's Shanghai on Bowery in Chinatown! World's best dumplings. We eat there every time we visit New York City.

Re: What’s on the menu!
 

Decided to go with Pan Seared Tilapia over Indian corn today. On of my Fav’s.

Re: What’s on the menu!
 

It's after the fact but it appears that our menu is mostly Road Kill.

Re: What’s on the menu!
 

I’ve done this more off than on for years…I theme my game time meal to our weekly opponent. So far this year I’ve done…
Week 1 Green Bay
Bratwurst poor boy with caramelized sweet onions and German potato salad.
Week 2 Carolina
Pulled pork poor boy with Carolina mustard based BBQ sauce and coleslaw
Week 3 New England
Lobster salad on French with buttered potatoes seasoned with Old Bay.
Week 4 New York Giants
Nathan’s Famous Coney Island hot dogs on bun and salt & pepper kettle chips.

Will add to this as the season goes on…

I'm envious of talented cooks. I'm not one of them but my girl says I'm a very creative cook for a bachelor. When I was in college I worked on a tug boat and the deck hand also cooks. The first morning I brought my captain steak and eggs. He was excited. Three meals later after only serving steak he said take it back and cook something different! I called my mom on the marine radio and she gave me directions for several meals. My mom gave me a copy of Betty Crocker's cook book which I used for decades.

Re: What’s on the menu!
 

I'm going to my twin brothers house and his wife is making boneless chicken wings from cut up breasts. I don't know her recipe but it's awfully good.

Re: What’s on the menu!
 

Today I’m going with PolloTropical’s grilled chicken recipe. Some curry mustard and cilantro lime sauce. Also, brisket burgers, potato salad and baked beans.

I’m having nachos and celebrating Halloween with the family about two blocks from the spot of the Salem witch trials. I love Halloween! I’m dressed as the Grim Reaper.

It's time to go to work. Let's Geaux !!

Red beans and rice today and probably red beans and rice tomorrow. A crockpot in a motel room does wonders, has for many years working on the road.

Greek salad...

Re: What’s on the menu!
 

How many Greeks did you use in your salad 🤪

Well played.

Were you stationed in Germany? When we lived there you could order that in restaurants. That brought back memories of the Black Forest.

My daughter was visiting and she made jaeger schnitzel with spaetzle and red kraut.

Lasagna Soup

Re: What’s on the menu!
 

Lasagna Soup haven't seen or had that in decades, now that's a treat.

Re: What’s on the menu!
 

Going with Po boys tonight. Got some nice bread, selection of meats and cheeses, all the fixings.

Re: What’s on the menu!
 

I do a weird trick with my sandwiches sometimes (like tonight). I make the sandwich, then wrap it in foil and then a plastic bag and refrigerate it for a while. It lets the bread soak the flavors and get the texture I like. Sounds crazy maybe, but it works for me.

Re: What’s on the menu!
 

Depends if the Saints win or lose...

On Mondays, if Saints won night before, I'll have a ribeye; and if they lost, it's Red Beans and Rice with Cornbread - either way, I win...

So tonight it was...

Re: What’s on the menu!
 

It's something we have been doing lately. Wife and I both enjoy it and we have plenty of leftovers.

Also, something I can throw in a container and bring to my parents. They enjoy just about anything they don't have to cook themselves.

This is an old pic, but this is what my Chicken and Sausage Gumbeaux will look like this evening...

Re: What’s on the menu!
 

Mine is redder...and thicker...and no damn tater salad!

Re: What’s on the menu!
 

Same. Don't do potato salad in it.

But, I also make a chicken, gator sausage, gator meat, and cactus gumbo with a central American twist using habaneros, and jalapenos, along with the usual trilogy, and with cilantro and cumin. The cactus has the same thickening qualities as okra or file'.

It's kick ass.

What time is dinner? I'll bring a six pack.
