Camera Cleanup #12

I know, I know, I'm a bad blog guy. I haven't been posting like I said I would and this time I even have a few things I could post about. But instead it's more random pics I'm afraid.

This was a buffalo chicken pizza, it was fricking awesome. I had a roasted chicken breast in the fridge and I just pulled it into chunks and tossed it on some pizza dough with buffalo instead of tomato sauce. And some onions, because why the hell not?

This was a sub I made for breakfast, I'm working on using up the last of the bacon I have in the freezer since I'm really not supposed to be eating it much anymore. But I'm not throwing it away, that would be criminal. It's cheese, sauteed onion, a couple sunny side up eggs and bacon. So very good.

Well, that's it. With any luck next week I'll be feeling it a bit more for writing and will post about the steak sandwich with greek yogurt sauce or maybe green chili shredded pork and bean casserole I made. They were both wicked good, I really should share.

Camera Cleanup #8

So in the spirit of easing back into things, here is some camera cleanup. Well, sort of cleanup, they're actually fairly new. But I don't feel like writing a recipe today. So look, biscuit cups! These ones are full of sloppy joe. They also have fresh onion, green peppers and cheese on top since, unlike my ex girlfriend, Dominus and Domina both love onions and cheese. This is a source of pleasure for me.

Also, they have a grill. Those are burgers stuffed with sharp cheddar and shallots.

This means this summer I'm busting out all kinds of grilled stuff I haven't been able to do since before I started blogging. I used to grill constantly and I've learned a lot since the last time I had one available on a regular basis. This will be good.

Camera Cleanup #7

Found some shots of this years Christmas dinner, which was as always, wicked good. My sister in law does the lions share of the cooking, which usually features classic brown sugar/mustard glazed ham with pineapple and cherries. Good times and killer sandwiches later.

This year she made this awesome pumpkin cake with a chocolate glaze. The glaze was like a ganache and it was also wicked good.

Then there's these. These are called Holiday Bacon Appetizers and they're from Ree, the illustrious Pioneer Woman. It's bacon, crackers and cheese all heated and crisped and fatty and stuff. Look, they're rich enough that even she only makes them for the holidays. That should tell you something. Something good.

Camera Cleanup #6

I don't know about you guys, but I often wind up taking pictures here and there or taking half a set of ones for something I'm cooking, forgetting to finish and then just leaving them on the memory card in my camera. Taking up space. Driving me nuts with waiting when I want to get anything else off of it.

That's what it's like now, so, that means it's camera cleanup time. I may not have any recipes or even know exactly what it is I made, but here are some pictures of stuff that was taking up precious, precious space.

Ok, I actually know exactly what this is. It's a failed pizza dough pita. It didn't poof, probably because I rolled it too thin and it crinkled up on the stone. But it was still wicked good and I wrapped some chicken and corn in it. I remember that the filling was spicy... but that's really it. Hm.

Anyway, this was chili I made with some ribs that I screwed up. Oh man was I pissed when I pulled those out of the oven and half were perfect and the other half were ... not. The problem was one side was much thinner than the other so it cooked a lot faster. But we ate the ones that were done and I made chili with the rest. I just cut between each bone and cooked them in broth and seasoning for a couple hours, then added beans, corn, I think there's some potato in there too. It was wicked good, the bbq sauce on the ribs added a nice sweetness and the bones really enriched the broth.

So, yeah. Camera cleanup. This is going to be an ongoing series since I have a whole mess of pics that I either don't know exactly what they are or don't have a full post worth of. Plus I haven't been doing much cooking lately for one reason or another. Heh, so I suppose it's a good thing that I have all these pictures on my memory card.
