My Latest Obsession: Infused Vinegars, Oils, and Salts

If you are in Denver, check out EVOO Marketplace. Mick has the most amazing variety of infused oils and vinegars.

It's fun to just spend some time sampling different flavors and creating combinations. Personally, the 18 y.o. balsamic is my favorite.

Slow-Roasted Spice-Rubbed Venison Loin

Thank you so much for this great cooking technique! It works perfectly. I tried last night with a small 1 pound piece of loin with amazing results.

Great post! I envy that fact that you're in the heart of it all; I can't wait to get back to el DF to get back to some of my favorite haunts.

Austin, Texas: Birria (Goat Meat) at El Borrego de Oro

I'd be curious to know if El Borrego de Oro in Austin is associated with the taqueria of the same name in the Delicias, Chihuahua. When I was a kid, (late 80's) it was a big deal for us to go have amazing tacos in this place.

Anyone know?

Kitchen Hack: Use Your Toaster to Heat Taco Shells

@Adam Kuban: It's not what goes into them that I don't like, it's the shell in itself. If they are home-made like "ssozm32" is talking about, I'm down with that. However, the orange ultra-processed shells that break on contact have no merit in my opinion (except as a base for orange napalm cheese at the movies).

Dinner Tonight: Paprika Roast Chicken

A similar recipe that I've found very easy and yields satisfying results makes the following "adjustments" to your recipe.
1) butterfly the chicken;
2) insert some fresh thyme under skin of breasts and thighs;
3) sprinkle chicken thoroughly with smoked Spanish paprika and kosher salt;
4) leave overnight in refrig. uncovered, skin-side up;
5) just before placing in 400 degree oven, drizzle chicken with olive oil.

This gives a wonderful flavor, and crisp skin.

Bobby Flay Burger Grilling Tips

Ok, I thought anyone that has made more than one burger patty knew that. Not to be too snarky, but I hope we weren't all waiting for Bobby Flay to tell us this all these years!
