I had some time on my hands, so …

I marinated boneless chicken thighs in greek yogurt, cilantro, and spicy tikka sauce.


Then a quick 20 minutes in the convection oven at 420

Aarzu got nothin on these!

Stop and Shop had an eye round deal that was too good to pass up, so it was time for some raw beef! Tossed with home made ponzu sauce, sesame seed/oil, wasabi mayo, chicory, apples and pine nuts. Some olives were on the side.

I’m on the fence on the egg yolk, I’m not sure if it makes it better.

Any of yall got any favorite raw beef prep? Now that I’m thinking about it I think the BEST part about western raw beef dishes is the crunchy toast you get with it. It contrasts so nicely with the mushy meat texture.

Fry-Daddy kind of night. Shrimp, calamari, yucca. Criolla, tartar, huacatay.

What’s For Dinner #75 - the " Thanks and Giving Season" Edition - November 2021 - Cooking Discussions / Cooking, Cookbooks, Ingredients - Hungry Onion

What’s up my NJ peeps, a link to the back story for this sandwich. My son (and his contemporaries) like these NJ “Fat Sandwiches”, which was never something I understood. So this is for my son for lunch tomorrow; Fat Ass Jersey Shore Special-
Half loaf Italian bread (it’s wheat! Look I’m healthy!!)
Rigatoni, smashed meatballs-sausage-short rib-prepared in Sunday gravy. Topped with grated pecorino Romano-provolone and Dutch Gouda via Aruba.

Oh to be young again!! I could never eat this thing!!

Umm…not sure why you could never eat this thing. Right up my alley although the rigatoni is a bit much. Here is how my GF and I took leftover sausage and peppers to work recently…

That’s a beauty too! I couldn’t eat a half sub of that, just the sheer volume not the combo!! Hell I created it!!

Mine is on a very manageable Calandra sub roll. Who can eat a full size sub? Been fantasizing about the perfect sandwich. The best of deli Pastrami, Mexican Cemita, Banh Mi, Roast Pork and Italian sub.

Any chance these will be for sale ? Maybe a stand outside your house?

Having had a Dinic’s roast pork/broccoli rabe sandwich yesterday, I can attest to the fact that sometimes some of us CAN eat the entire thing! :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:

Haven’t found a great meatball sub locally. It’s a big need

One of the things on my list. Making the meatballs tender and fluffy while still maintaining the meatball flavor is the tough part.

That sounds wonderful

I thought ziti on pizza was ludicrous till I tried it, and now I’m mad my slice place did away with it (unless you order a whole pie) during the pandemic :joy:

That’s quite a sandwich!
