Wouldn't be a big salad without 'em!
Lots and lots of them.
Wouldn't be a big salad without 'em!
Burritos
No jalapeños, we were out.
El Yucateco xxxtra hot Mayan recipe habanero salsa instead.
Homemade pizza tonight. Turkey pepperoni, black olive, mushroom, onion, and plenty of cheese.
Leftovers for our trip to the zoo (picnic lunch) tomorrow.
Tacos tonight. Ground beef with homemade seasoning. Also bought 2 pounds of shoulder steaks and put'em in a marinade of garlic, fresh jalapeno peppers, cilantro, and beer to soak all night and go on the grill tomorrow.
No bacon? :faint:
The alcohol in the beer (or wine sometimes) works the same way. Sometimes a citrus marinade, if soaked to long, will start to "cook" the meat like ceviche. It is the ticket, though, for just a few hours of soaking. Pineapple juice also makes for a tasty marinade, especially for pork and poultry. Vinegar is something I often use for ribs, keep a bowl full near the grill to mop them every time they get turned.Try adding some lime, lemon juice(I would say grapefruit but PU!) or vinegar to the mix. An acid will make the flavorings penetrate deeper and tenderize the meat. Just a suggestion----take it for what it cost.
Bacon and jalapeños......mmmmm!I have bacon - for the twice-baked potatoes on Sunday. He can have bacon & jalapeños on his.

I do have plenty of fresh limes to squeeze on just before grilling, though, and for just before eating.
Not sure grapefruit would be the ticket for marinating anything but vodka.
What time is dinner?Tacos tonight. Ground beef with homemade seasoning. Also bought 2 pounds of shoulder steaks and put'em in a marinade of garlic, fresh jalapeno peppers, cilantro, and beer to soak all night and go on the grill tomorrow.
Lemon pepper chicken, macaroni and cheese (oven baked), broccoli, Texas toast, and a Bloody Mary.
Those bloody marys were good. Thanks.
