What's Cookin? home opener edition

well finally we get one at home. looks like hot sausage again. keep the train rolling. STD i hope is eating one of those cheap frozen pizza's again.

 

Pig Ears.

 

Think the O need some gas. Loading up on Mozzarella sausage sub with fried peppers and onions, chili with beans, then get some prime power from high octane brew. The team should benefit if they are up wind.

 

I'm thinking some good ole home cooking. Beef stew, corn bread, and Milo's zero sugar sweet tea.

 

In the past there have been a couple of guys who set up an entire tailgate that’s free with a tip jar at the end beer included if old enough

I always tip well it’s good fun and convenient in the lot next to the garage I park in

 

Cheese steaks again. I love a win streak, but I am ready for a different game day food. Lol

Give me an @S.T.D style frozen pie for ****s sake.

 

Birria tacos

 

I had never heard of these

There is a hole in the wall Mexican restaurant near me and they put them on the menu about 2 years ago

Now I’m hooked

Fun fact: did you know the word “birria” means “worthless” and this dish was given this name by the Spanish Conquistadors. Back in the 1500's, this dish was primarily made with goat meat. When the Spanish colonized Mexico, they brought with them lots of goats.

 

Love me some birria de Chivo! Most place in MX use sheep now but, a lot are switching to beef

 

Back to the watering hole due to a CBS blackout because the stupid eagles are playing. They do a nice chopped antipasto so start with that then possibly hot wings.

 

I knew it was traditionally made with goat, but not the rest. There’s a place near me that does a birria pizza that’s holy mother of god good

 

Homemade bake Chicken Ziti with sun dried tomatoes, ricotta, grated Parmesan, fresh garlic minced, heavy cream, oregano, red wine, and moist rotisserie chicken. Homemade salad with fresh greens and balsamic vinaigrette. Ruffino red wine and fresh crusty garlic bread from the oven.

 

did you win in vegas? never mind you went to the game, you were a winner.

 

Love Milo's tea but hard to find zero sugar sweet here, Giant recently started (at least to me recent) stocking Gold Peak zero sugar sweet, not bad at all.

 

Gonna do breaded calico bass and a big salad

 

I like the Gold Peak too. I just never see it here in gallon size.
I also make my own tea, unsweet. Mix it close to half and half with the Milo's.

 

Yep, me too probably. I hate it but I'm real curious to see if they open up the play calling. A lot of festivals and events down here this weekend so bars will be mobbed with Bird fans.

 

Dude You don't want this crappy frozen pizza I'm having to eat. If I hadn't been out of sorts I would have picked a better one, but I just bought two more just so we would win. See I'll suffer for the team. LoL

 

Didn’t go yet Mac Daddyo, heading there for the Raiders game.

 

steak

 

Shrimp tacos and beer, i don't know, always seems to work in the outdoors,

 

Hot and spicy pork steaks, roast veg, herby roast potatoes, chimichurri.

 

Buffalo Wings

 

I'm grilling fig jam pizza. It's a recipe my wife found a few weeks ago, and I've made it three times now (with both of our kids off to college, this is our first year as empty-nesters, so we've been changing up the menu some).

It might sound weird, but it's really good. It's basically naan bread with fig jam as the sauce, with mozzarella and prosciutto on top, grilled, and then arugula, olive oil and parmesan added after it comes off of the grill. We've also been adding grilled acorn squash coated with a butter/brown sugar and chili powder mix, then topped with lime zest.
