Some onion and green chili smash burgers on the Blackstone griddle.
Veggies, you know, for health!

That looks like the confident smile of a Validictorian.

And, if that weren’t enough, he is also standing right next to Wally, so he’s got that going for him.
Spent a week on Cape Cod. We usually dig a gallon or two of clams, steam and freeze them for clam chowdah in the winter. Unfortunately a Red Tide type bacteria poisoned them this year. We went to a nice place one night, good wine, GREAT food.
Tuna Canolli, raw tuna and spices in a small canolli.
Their version of Bouillabaisse.
Pan seared Salmon on Risotto.
I forgot I didn't post this here. From last weekend:
Handmade Polish kielbasa, and potato:
And you can't have Polish kielbasa and potato without pierogie and onion.
Somewhere, my "Polish And Proud" grandmother is smiling.
Well, probably not, she'd probably be going on about how we didn't use the right kind of onion, and something was undercooked and something else was burnt, this isn't the way her parents from the Old Country used to do things, get out of the kitchen and let me do this.
Huh. Suddenly a lot of my personality traits make a lot of sense.
No photo, but for breakfast try 2 eggs scrambled with a very ripe banana.
Make a pancake out of it, or several small ones. So sweet, no syrup required!
I made sausage gravy the other night with hot sausage from this year's pig and bacon in it. Now, I'm having it over a toasted biscuit, scrambled egg, and homemade ham.
this turned into this
4 ham hocks, 4 different preparations. I have found my new favorite ham combination. E36 M3 just got real.

Brine recipe is simple, but secret. But it was the brown sugar, black pepper, and cayenne pepper rub that really made the decision for me. Sweet, little spicy, little salty, better than anything from a store.

Oh, no. The word "secret" doesn't exist on this site. We don't need the precise measurement but you gotta at least give us a hint.... (Now that I think about it, I have no idea when the last time I saw a ham hock in the grocery store was...)
In reply to stroker :
You need to go to a proper butcher's.
There's one up the street from where I work that sells ham hocks. That's where i went to get the kielbasa. And the pierogie, because they also sell fresh pierogie and cole slaw and potato salad and lasagna (?) and Reuben eggrolls (?!?). They also have soooo many things that I can't even remember, but they have things like pork bones if you want to make your own soup stock, and whole duck, and about 14 kinds of sausage, and whole sides of beef that they will hack off whatever you want...
I live in a test market for the KFC donut chicken sandwich. I usually avoid KFC unless I need to lose 10lbs in a hurry, but thought I would give it s try.
I have to say that was the best, freshest piece of KFC chicken I have EVER had, ever, including buffets where I've watched them bring it out. The doughnut was pretty tasty too.
That said, I won't be getting another, and donut burgers are better than donut chicken sandwiches. But I might modify this for home, and use donut dough for breading on chicken strips.
