What's for Dinner Tonight?

Real simple...smoked & pulled BBQ chicken sammies with a big dollop of SBR sauce, macaroni salad, corn on the cob and fresh strawberries. Carrot cake for dessert.

Hmmm, what did you have?:shifty:

I only had a 1/2 of a Grilled Chicken Salad. Shared it with my wife. But we did not eat until 2:30 pm. IO thought I would have been hungry as I rode my bike 21 miles in one stint and then another 10 later.
 
Well, I had every intention of making chicken cutlets in skillet gravy with mashed potatoes.

However, I found myself lost at the library grazing the shelves for new non-fiction.. looked at the clock and said too late, so I ended up swinging by the A&W (root beer stand as we call it here) and brought home a foot long with the works. Yum.

Whoever put the thing in the container ripped one end of the bun.
Goes to show some people don't know how to handle big weiners.:whistling::yum:

1/2 baked potato with Norwegian Baked Salmon. First time in my life I have ever ordered Salmon. After my experience in Ireland I never thought I would eat it again. :hammer::hammer: But this was good.

Oooooooo I like salmon, baked in a loaf, fried patties, used like you'd make tuna salad right out of the can..
 
When we were in Ireland at a meeting it was served. I thought hey finally something I like. Was I wrong. It came sliced about 1/8" of an inch. Was cold and red. I swear it was raw. That was in about 1990. Until last night I have never touched Salmon since.
 
slowgrilled sausage rope tonight. doesnt get much better n that. on the grill on low heat for an hour or more, then fire it up for the last couple minutes and get that nice crisp on the outside, while the inside is slowcooked and juicy. mmm mmmm mmmmm
 
Rusty,

Slice up some potatoes and fry them. Then when both tators and sausage is just about ready fry them together for about 20 minutes. Add some sweet corn if you wish or skip the corn and make some Pork and Beans. Mix it all together and eat. You might be surprised on how well it taste. You don't have to mix the beans if you don't want. It is one of the concocked things that taste good together.

Sounds like the Irish have the same food reputation as the English. I made 6 trips to the UK to oversee the construction of an office/warehouse up in Milton Keynes, and I lost weight with each trip. For a guy with an Eastern European heritage, there are not a lot of local choices for good food. For some odd reason, I did like Bubble & Squeak with veggies. Anything with meat was tasteless and often way overcooked. I did find a nice Italian restaurant that had pretty good food, but stayed away from the traditional English food. Thank goodness for McDonalds and Pizza Slut.

I liked bubble and squeak, toad in the hole, traditional English brekkies, a good Sunday dinner with meat and 3 vegs with Yorkshire puddings and gravy.
I think no one on this earth makes fish, chips and mushy peas like you can find around Yorkshire.
The Indian restaurants in Yorkshire were always good.
The ONLY thing I never liked while living over there was black pudding.
I still have beans on toast as a quick dinner, and would die if Meijer ever stopped carrying my beloved PG-Tips tea bags. :smile:
 
What did I have for dinner?
A friend called me at work and said she was heading into town and asked if I was going to be able to take a break.
Answer: no.
So she brought me some of those gorgeous onion rings from Sonic (I am sure they are vidalias made with a beer batter.. soooooo good) and a chocolate milkshake.

Sorry, I couldn't resist.

I have never had spotted dick (now called Spotted Richard for PC purposes) from a can.
Normally my mother in law made it from scratch topped with Bird's custard.. or we bought it from Marks and Spencers from the refrigerated section.
 
I did something I thought I would never do and that is turkey hamburger. I not only made it I ate it. It is kind of dry so I added water in the pan as I fried it. I also used a lot of spices and then at the end I mixed up some BBQ and water 50/50 and then poured over it.

It actually was pretty good. Can't wait until next meal. I had it with raspberries.

I went to an all day Amish benefit auction today! Needless to say I did not come home hungry! Cheap prices compared to most auctions and they had all kinds of food. Big old salad bar with tons of fresh fruit. Burgers for a $1.25 and half chickens for $5. Steamed crabs and more pastry and pies and cakes than I could stand. I really did not over do it as I kept reminding myself"portion control"!!
 
We had our family reunion today with about 80 people in attendance. More homemade entrees, sides and desserts than I can list here. The most memorable were the smoked Slovenian sausages in sauerkraut, German potato salad made with smoked bacon and redskins potatoes, stuffed cabbages (to die for!), homemade Italian Sporaseta sausages, and more strudels and poticas and homemade pastries than I could count. A great time was had by all, and nobody went away hungry.

Joe, do you know your pecan rolls don't mold?
I found the last one I'd saved in a basket on top of my fridge, wrapped in cling film.
It looked the same, only slightly hard.
Should we call the Vatican and demand your rolls be declared incorruptible and worthy of being called sainted miracle bread? :yum:

:yum::yum::yum::yum: OMG, Please tell me you're joking. I get paranoid when something is IN THE FRIDGE for more than a few days, much less sitting in a basket on top of it for months. Now you tell me that my pecan rolls have a half life? I think I better slip into the confessional before mass this morning.

Oh, I have a batch of 15 cinnamon rolls to drop off at the rectory this morning as a Father's Day gift to our priests. I did this last year and it was a big hit. We have over 4,000 families in our parish with three full time priests and our Pastor Emeritus in residence. They all great guys and they all have a sweet tooth.

What a nice gesture, Joe.
I hugged Fathers Mel and Jacob this morning and told them Happy Fadda's Day :biggrin:
 
I would take that over baking any day:whistling:
:D

Well, I am going to make an italian steak whatever and have it over rice.
I have some thin, cheapo rib eyes that are actually like minute steaks.
Going to sear them, then dump on some stewed tomatoes, add some herbs and lots of garlic, onion, worcestershire sauce, brown sugar.. don't have a green pepper, or I'd add that.
Hopefully it's delicious and gastronomically correct :smile:
