    Experimenting on foods.

    Why is it that we only eat turkey once a year? Why is it that we only eat corned beef once a year? I am eating corned beef, and it is not St. Patrick's Day.

    Experimenting on foods.

    Pastrami. Salted piece of inexpensive beef. Steamed. Corned beef. Salted piece of inexpensive beef. Boiled. I had a tri tip which was rubbed with salt and pepper. Just overnight. Not 100 days in a barrel of salt. Not overwintered in a salt brine. Instead of roasting it, I decided to...

    Lunch, Anybody?

    Corned beef and cabbage. Potato, carrot, celery, onion. Just enough liquid to cover the vegetables. The meat goes on top. The cabbage blankets the meat to insulate the steam.

    Experimenting on foods.

    The Chinatown Falafel. That's what I call it. All beef meatballs, coated in flour, deep fried. I wonder if vegetarians will take umbrage, when they discover meat in what was a chickpea meatball.

    Lunch, Anybody?

    I am a cheater. I have a cast iron wok. It allows me to quickly "stir fry" any combination of meat and vegetables. Where I really cheat, is by using Lee Kum Kee sauces. The brand sells over 100 different blends of flavors. Edit Quote Multi Quote Quick Reply Oyster...

    Lunch, Anybody?

    It starts with a ball of meat the size of a softball. I expect it to shrink as it cooks. The end product is still a little over an inch thick. If I had to guess, the finished burger patty is still over a pound. I rarely make burgers at home. When I do, it has to be worth the effort. Which for...

    Experimenting on foods.

    Apparently, there's always meat at my house. Or so, The X says. Tonight, there was tri tip again. Carved thin. On a sesame seed bun. Lettuce. Tomato. Salad dressing. Why? Inflation. I can't afford to go out for a meal anymore. I can't even afford fast food.

    MA-1 Flight jacket

    Authentic or not? I don't know. I didn't undress one of these guys to inspect the garment. The MA-1 style is still pretty popular.

    Lunch, Anybody?

    Cheap eats. Beef shoulder. Butchers call it chuck. Chuck is so tough, that it's usually ground for hamburger meat. Fill the bottom of the roasting pan with carrots. No roasting pan rack needed. The meat will sit on the carrots. Insert garlic cloves into the seams of the meat. Cover...

    Experimenting on foods.

    The X would say, "what do you call that?" I don't call it anything. It's just food. I'm Chinese. I made it. So it's Chinese Food. Fill a pot with chopped tomatoes. Cook it until it's reduced by 75%. The pot of tomatoes should only be a quarter full. Cook a piece of inexpensive, low...

    The Big Game. My team didn't make it. They didn't even come close. Loyal fanatics tend to wager on their favorite teams, for no other reason than that they are loyal to their hometown sports. A lot of money was made on the streets this season. Bookies cleaned up with every game. There was...
