plenzmd1 Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 First weekend home in a month, and the weather looks like a nice cloudy 65, start to rain about 4 PM..in other words first fall Sunday to really enjoy something good and brown to eat! I am trying this Lamb Shank recipe from Jamie Oliver...seems simple enough, and looks great, so gunna give it a try https://www.jamieoliver.com/recipes/lamb-recipes/ale-barley-lamb-shanks/ Pretty sure i will not find umami paste, so debating whether to add anchovy paste or tomato paste...will prolly go with the anchovy paste Any one else got something nice and brown for Sunday dinner? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Process until well blended and smooth. Taste and adjust ingredients if desired.

Going to be chicken on the grill with some potato salad in addition. Not a lot happening today so maybe the beef stew gets made as well because we all know it's better on the second and third days. I actually get 6 days out of a stew or chili before it starts to turn bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gray Beard Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 When winter hits I do a lot of slow cooker recipes. Today it’s 60 degrees and sunny in upstate NY. Not slow cooker weather yet. I am am having my arm twisted to go to a restaurant this afternoon for en extended in-law family event. I’m not happy. I’m glad I’m not missing a Bills game, because that would change my mood from not happy to downright angry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I cooked my tail off yesterday for about a dozen folks, enough food for an extra dozen! (We had some “maybes” who didn’t make it.) Now I’m home alone for the next couple weeks and don’t feel like cooking for just myself.....but my wife gave away 100% of the leftovers. Cooking for one is hardly worth the effort.

My mother in law hosts most holidays, and my wife and I are lucky to get enough leftovers for a sandwich. Now that she is in her 80’s my wife and I are hosting some of the holidays. Having leftovers is one of the only perks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We do Thanksgiving at our place and so far we have about 20 people coming this year. Always a good time, and one of two meals a year I do NOT cook. My wife does that and Christmas. While I hate cooking for myself, I DO get to eat the things I like that the wife does not. Always an upside if you look hard enough! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nanker Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 (edited) Went on a 6 mile hike through the Barnstable trails this morning and then had brunch at the Mattakeese on the harbor. Wife had the Crab cake eggs Benedict and a Bloody Mary. I had a Cape Cod Beach Blonde beer and a full belly clam roll. No dinner for me tonight.

frostbitmic Posted October 13, 2019 Share Posted October 13, 2019 Italian Sausage on the grill with some peppers and onions. Picked the last of my green beans and cut up some cucumber spears. As long as I can grill without freezing my tail off, I will. Sunny and near 70 today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Gug My pleasure, sir. Anytime I don't have something, I always hit the google machine to see if I can make a solid substitute. Hope it works for you! Cleaning the garage, fertilizing the lawn, getting an oil change, going to Lowe's and going to Walmart killed my plans for any kind of significant cooking. Lil' Gug is off from school tomorrow, so he's in charge of making the pot roast (putting everything into the crockpot by 11am). That's tomorrow's dinner. Spag-n-balls will wait till Wednesday.
