Deer Minute Steaks

thanks everyone. I think I'm going to do some version of a steak sandwich or the schnizel!

Deer Minute Steaks

after some thought I would like to keep them as natural as I can, it's not a meat we often come across so I don't want to "hide" the meat, like how a swiss steak would do.

I think i might do a steak sandwich - any thoughts?????

foods to avoid on a date...

I was on a first date once. Ordered a caesar (bloody mary to the most of you). It was delivered. I grabbed the celery out of the glass and went to take a bite. It resisted and then let go leaving my hand to fly towards my full caesar flying it across the table right onto my dates chest! He was in a white dress shirt and was not happy - there was no laughter!. I was young and I was horrified. Now I think it's funny. He didn't call me again - I blame the drink spillage and not my wonderful persona!

There really is nothing I would shy from except now biting into a peice of celery with colored beverages around!

And the fact that he was a bit pissed, totally turned me off! Don't date a guy that wears a white dress shirt I say!

@tuppercooks; you scare me and make me laugh at the same time. talking about farting on this post and your previous post on the meatloaf:

(Ever ordered breakfast at Denny's, and then you go to the bathroom, and yer in there so long you gotta order lunch from the stool?)

you are scary. ha ha.

Big Burger!

it goes without saying you need a really big mouth to eat this.

but seriously - does it get eaten? or is it just for show? it looks big enough to feed a small country - let's hope it does!

and yes, the cheese looked a bit on the skimpy side!

How many do you have, and what spices can you not be without?

i think the only thing i don't have is saffron & (not a spice) but truffle oil. I keep meaning to purchase them, but haven't!

I am lucky and live in vancouver which has every culture and all the cooking spices/foods needed for any meal! So, I pretty much have it all.

That said, I'm not "allowed" (ha) to make east indian curries anymore... Mr. Tkach says they are terrible lately! They used to be good but now he has a few favorite restuarants that I can't compete with.... so some of my indian spices are expiring!

Sauced: Aioli

Funny, just looked for a recipe yesterday online and gave up. Why didn't I come here. What's my problem! I only gave up cause I was finding aioli's made with mayo and then some that had full egg in the ingredients. I got scared. Thanks Joshua - this looks great!

I'm in the kitchen screaming buzzzzzzzzzzzzuzzzzzz.....

he just doesn't want to buy a new fridge!

Turkey Infusion to Dry Turkey Brine

i thought of that - doing chicken. but dinner is thursday and it's suppose to be marinating for 48. If I buy a chicken tomorrow, I could have it wednesday but problem I need to brine turkey tuesday!

a little forethought would have been helpful - actually alot of forethought cause i was pretty proud of myself taking the turkey out yesterday to thaw for brining on tuesday to roast on thursday - not bad i thought.

roasting meats with fresh herbs

mmmm sounding gooooood.!

@bobcatsteph3: i agree about the purchasing of fresh herbs - I can't stand the high cost and little amount you get but it's one of my bad habits in the winter - buying fresh, maybe if i dry my own i'll feel better about using dried.

@CJ McD: yup that's what i usually do. and it's always great.

anyone else?
