This was very good. Loosely based on Coq au Vin, which I have never made. Red wine gives such good flavor. Chicken thighs.

Admittedly I had to google that, however my initial comment was going to be; “That looks like chicken osso bucco” - I guess it sort of is. lol I might have to try this, how long did you cook it for?

Brown chicken well, set aside. Saute diced carrots, celery, onion until browned, add tomato, garlic, seasoning and cook bit more. Deglaze with red wine, added chicken BTB and some pasta water. Return chicken to pan, cover and simmer until chicken is just starting to fall apart. Took about an hour.

Been a while since I broke out the Weber…
Gochujang Pork Tenderloin, Irish Bavette, Wild Boar Sausage, and Key West Pink Gulf Shrimp.
Red sauce with scallions is rocoto. Rocoto paste from jar, white vinegar, veg oil, SP, lime juice, and scallion. This is similar to the salsa that comes with Anticucho.

Wanted to make the wife her favorite Oktoberfest meal, sauerbraten and spaetzle. Having never made a proper sauerbraten, I didn’t realize it takes a multi-day marinade to make “properly”, so of course I half-assed it. I made a typical “American” pot roast vs. sauerbraten and frankly - I couldn’t tell the difference. lol
Shout out to me for my gravy, friggin delicious and the spaetzle was fairly easy to make (for a pasta) and was really tasty. (I pan fried mine in butter with some garlic powder and s&p in the butter before frying, gave it a nice flavor.
Red cabbage w/ apples and onions. (OMG so good)
Small, sweet potato casserole because my wife picked a few baby sweet potatoes from the garden she never realized she planted. (Must have cross pollinated at the garden center) So I made the casserole to not let them go to waste.
DELICIOUS fall meal.

I had dinner at a fairly lousy Italian place for dinner last night it wasn’t horrible but far from good so I had to make my own version of Chicken giambotta. I only had one small red potato and some pre-roasted (jar) red peppers. Bag of potato sticks used for extra potatoes.

Still 10x better than last night.

@RGR Happiest of birthdays!! Wonderful looking dinner and painting!

Thank you, @jsfein, for your birthday wishes! As I said in my post, while the dinner was wonderful, it was the painting and the flowers that made this birthday so special.

Hope all is well with you and your family.
