What are we eating for ..... 2015

I think I am looking at a stir fry in the wok for supper tonight..
B/S chicken cubed and marinated for a few hours in a honey-garlic sauce with some fresh ginger scraped in as well..
Onions, garlic, broccoli, sweet peppers, mushrooms, and carrots should do it for the veggies..


Breakfast: 3 egg omelette with 2 slices of turkey bacon for my Princess..
3 eggs scrambled with some grated cheddar cheese for me..
 

Stir fry was OK but a bit on the sweet side as I don't have any white wine left, so it came out on the sweet side...

tonight will be a fish night..
Either fillets of salmon, sole, or cod.......
Which ever it is, it will be pan fried....

a turnip casserole in the oven will go nicely with the fish...

Breakfast: as usual for my Princess.. 3 egg omelette, 2 slices of turkey bacon.. She wants that EVERY DAY !!!
A bowl of porridge for me with cottage cheese and sour cream....
Naturally, a pot of Folgers..
 
Tonight it was my smoked whiskey ribs.

2 slabs of ribs smoked for 4 hours at 200 degrees. Then the ribs are taken off smoke, put in foil, doused in whiskey, and put back in the smoker (sans smoke) for a couple more hours. The alcohol flashes off, and leaves the ribs tender and the complex flavors of the whiskey get left behind. After a couple hours the ribs are finished on the grill with some homemade barbeque sauce. A side of homemade bread with some homemade raspberry jam, and a salad round it out.

The ribs are fall-off-the-bone tender with multiple flavor levels.

Tonight I am having the night off..... No cooking....
We are going to the "Seniors" club for a Pot Luck supper.. We are bringing a jar of pickles as they never have enough of those.. That's what we were asked to bring....
They have a Pot Luck the third Monday of every month..

Ths club is in Espanola (30 kms east of Massey) where I will do my grocery order first that I didn't do last week because I was waiting for this trip.. Save a trip (60 kms return trip) isn't a bad idea.. Besides the weather was really nasty lately up here with a small ton of snow and high winds...............

Chicken drumsticks on the BBQ..
A fresh salad..
Frozen fruit with yogurt and cream..

3 eggs scrambled with grated mozzarella for me..
 
After being on holiday for a while, it seems very hard having to cook again each day �� however tonight we had lean pork steaks fried with yellow peppers and soy sauce, with mushroom rice.
 
Tonight it will be pan fried marinated beefsteaks with new potatoes and chopped leeks.No pud.
Sunday it will be a chicken casserole, roast potatoes and broccoli, with Apple strudel and cream for pud.
 
Going to dine out tonight at a country restaurant. Most likely will have country fried steak, mashed potatoes and fried okra. Yum.
 
These guys are getting ready to go into the smoker for a few hours. 4 hours on apple wood at 220 degrees, and then an hour's rest before they get finished on the grill.

Tonight it was my smoked ribs. After 5 hours on cherry smoke and drizzled with some spiced rum.

Then they rest FTC* for a couple hours where they continue to slightly cook and all the juices migrate back to the meat. Then I finish them on the grill with some homemade barbeque sauce.

They're moist and fall-off-the-bone tender. When smoked with cherry and drizzled with spiced rum they have a rich, mild flavor.

*Wrap them in Foil, wrap them in a Towel, and put them in a Cooler .
 
We had Chinese food delivered tonight from a good restaurant. Shrimp Curry, Shrimp Lemongrass, Beef with Scallions, Curry Beef...will be having some leftovers for a day or two.
