homemade double-down.

two large chicken breasts in beer batter and then smashed-up cornflakes (ran out of breadcrumbs) then deep-fried.

add lots of bacon in a very light caramel/gentleman jack glaze sauce coating.

add four beef patties and fresh sliced sharp cheddar cheese.

...add more bacon.

voila. sandwich.

Step 1 – thaw two (or more, but only 2 adults live in my house) Cornish Game Hens
[$2.58 each, $5.16 subtotal]

Step 2 – dice one medium-sized russet potato
[$0.89/pound, one potato was $0.53... $5.69 subtotal]

Step 3 – clean one-half pound fresh small mushrooms
[$2.49... $8.18 subtotal]

Step 4 – mix one smallish bag of frozen broccoli stir fry (broccoli, white onions, red/green peppers, carrots and sliced mushrooms) with the diced potato, mushrooms and one package of Lipton’s onion soup mix and any seasonings you may so fancy. Shake it all up in one large bowl as this is the easiest method
[$2.00 for stir fry, $0.99 for onion soup mix... $11.17 subtotal]

Step 5 – spray a deep baking dish with cooking spray or spread some olive oil in it, and set the hens down into it.

Step 6 – fill the gaps left in that dish with the veggies, and freeze what you don’t use for next time

Step 7 – pour one cup of water into the dish

Step 8 – bake at 275º for 3.5ish hours, or until the internal temperature of the birds is 160º

Step 9 – ENJOY!!!

Sorry, no pictures of this one, my counter top is a mess of baby supplies and such. An 8 day old child in the house makes some things a little more difficult, and this is only the second time I have cooked since she was born last Friday.
I just pulled this out of the oven after 3 hours of my house smelling AMAZING, I tasted one of the mushrooms and had a tardgasm.
Notice the running total up there, sales tax takes me to $11.39 and we're about to eat like KINGS as soon as she finishes her nap - which strategically matches the baby's nap times.

seared chuck steak with fries.
also had bottle of red with it (babaresco) from Trader Joes.

murda-c · 07-24-2011, 05:47 PM

bitter leaf and rice

WanganRunner · 07-24-2011, 06:35 PM

Polenta, roasted broccolini, pork belly, and flaked reggiano.

Had some Rioja with it.

Every bit as good as it sounds, and took maybe 20 mins?

WanganRunner · 07-26-2011, 06:34 PM

Another simple meal today. Family is in NYC, so I'm here by myself. Nothing elaborate.

Caramelized onions, fresh parsley, and flaked reggiano over fettucine rigate. Pretty healthy if you moderate the pasta portion, and if you do it right everything else is just garnish for the onions. Really fantastic.

Most good composed pasta dishes should have 6 or fewer ingredients, IMO, counting oils and spices.

girlfriend made Chaufa. sooo yummy

pulled pork again. i'm going to eat you at noon

made it with rootbeer last time, smelled terrible while it was cooking. i hope beer isn't so gross.

wonpoo · 08-03-2011, 04:18 AM

Beef Broth with Minced pork Noodle! and some Fish and Beef meat balls.

**Phlip** · 08-08-2011, 07:58 PM

step 1 - cut, separate and season your wings, marinating for 1-24 hours
step 2 - bread them AS IF you will fry them
step 2.5 - preheat oven to 375º
step 3 - bake them for 35-45ish minutes (exterior color is a good judge)
step 4 - ENJOY!

I am taking advantage of moms' willingness to mind my 3 week-old while I run to the store to cook for she and I, and my arriving-45-minutes-later fiancee, so I was buying beer and wine 3 blocks away for the first half of this cooked.

WanganRunner · 08-09-2011, 07:10 PM

If you're doing a shoulder for pulled pork, you don't need to add ANYTHING. No root beer, no beer, no liquid of any kind. It's a fatty enough cut that you will already have plenty of liquid, and you want it to caramelize a little. Liquid will prevent or at least postpone the caramelization.

Some *huge* whole shrimp I grilled on Sunday. The fat in the heads is the best part.

Note roasted broccolini again. Doing this constantly now, it's brainless and always comes out amazing.

EDIT: Wonpoo needs to provide instructions on that thing up above. Looks great.
