Default Dinner tonight 4/3/2020

A medium rare hamburger, about 1/4 lb. of ground chuck, cooked in a very
small hot cast iron skillet. Salted, peppered and oh, a splash of
Worcestershire sauce. Topped with a slice of Swiss cheese when I
flipped the burger over. Cooked to medium rare and the cheese melts
down the side.

Served on a toasted whole wheat bun with some potato crisps/chips on the
side. Come to think of it, maybe I'll put some of them on the burger.

No thanks to other condiments. I do not like ketchup, mustard, mayo on
hamburgers. Plain with only cheese, please. The type of cheese may
vary.

I like a smear of mayo on each side of the bun and plenty of onions,
hold the cheese, please.

Ham n beans n carrots with cornbread. Ive used neck bones before.
I forgot how sparse the meat was. Luckily, I had some frozen ham steaks
from our New Year's ham to provide meat to the concoction. The neck bones
provided the flavor.
I usually use shanks, and the store was out. But! They did have toilet
paper. Its the first time Ive seen it sold in three weeks where I
shop. Apparently, one has to get there early

I had purchased some brown rice tortillas from trader joe's. I covered
one with pizza sauce mozz and parma cheeses and couple of pieces of
precooked chicken tenders cut into small bits and precooked
cauliflower and precooked bacon (both cut into small bits) put it in a
preheated airfryer at 400 F for 7 minutes and it was simply divine
along with being totally gluten free.

Korea Girl? Refresh my memory. But I have been wondering where Jebus

Maybe he broke up with Thailand and has nothing to brag about at the
moment. Korea Girl is German. Her name is Sanne.

Oh yes, Sanne. Sorry, I had forgotten about her and I hope she and
Jebus are ok and wish they would come back.

I had leftover whole wheat spaghetti with butter, Parmesan, Romano, and
parsley. Also two ribs of raw celery and a handful of pecans. He had the
spaghetti with some eggs.

We had leftovers, or at least my husband did. Grilled flank steak, IIRC
sliced and made into a sandwich. I had a salad and a slice of bread
drizzled with EVOO and sprinkled with coarse salt. I'd had a good-sized
piece of cheese in the middle of the afternoon, so I didn't feel like I
needed anything more for dinner.

Burgers for lunch today. I prefer mine on a toasted bun with lettuce,
tomato, and raw onion.

I cook hamburgers (Sheldon's mystery meat) to medium with no pink
in the middle. Also use s&p and worcestershire on each side. I
also add swiss-only cheese if I have some handy.

Chips on burgers - never

Home cooked, same as the old diner burgers. You ask for the
works and you get mayo, mustard, ketchup, onions, tomato
and lettuce on the bun.

If you want cheese, you ask for a cheeseburger with the works
rather than a hamburger with the works.

As far as the onions, I like them both ways...
either cooked along with the burgers or just fresh
sliced on the bun. At home, normally fresh sliced on
the bun...sharper onion taste and adds some crunch
to the sandwich.

The best homemade burger I've ever had used fresh ground
sirloin as opposed to "ground beef" or "ground chuck".
I even tried home "ground" strip steak once. Love the
steaks but wasn't impressed with it turned into a burger.

Someday, I still would like to try ground ribeye.
I suspect that a great burger might be a combo of cuts.

Got out of bed at 6 AM and started a beef stew with a 3 lb top round
steak... lots of carrots, spuds, celery, lge can sml diced tomatas. a
can of brewski, herbs, seasonings, four large cloves garlic, even
sneaked in one onyun, left whole for me... thickened with some Wondra
and some corn starch.
Anyways didn't enjoy my coffee til 10 AM.
I'm very used to begin cooking right out of bed, been doing that my
entire life. Filled a 12 qt pot... beef stew for two days and lots
for the freezer.faggOTS.
Oh, Trump, get off your fat faggot Queens ass and nuke the Chinks!
General Quarters, all hands man your battle stations... NOW!
I've no doubt what so ever that Trump is a cowardly FAGGOT!
However, ALL of DC are COWARDLY FAGGOTS... most especially the
PENTIGONIANS.
NUKE the Chinks NOW!

Last night I made pepper steak. It was just so-so because I used substandard meat i.e., grass fed beef AKA, the future of meat. I don't like grass fed beef but these days, one gets whatever one can get. It's a tough meat that tastes weird. A meat like that can benefit from being tenderized. Baking soda would work well but there was none to be found. The taste is not too important. That can be changed easily. It was served on a bed of chopped cabbage instead of rice - low carbs and all that.

How about you specify the cut of beef rather than use a generic term
about what the beef is fed?

He could take a picture of cow dung and you'd say it looks good. What
he's saying is he bought some cheap (his own words "substandard") tough
beef. It looks pretty but hey, doesn't matter what it tasts like.

It doesn't matter what the cut of beef was. Grass fed beef is a tough mother compared to grain finished beef. That's all you need to know. Don't take my word for it. Just pick some up at your local Zippy-mart and try it.

I do have some experience with grass-fed beef. It's nasty stuff. I won't buy the stuff unless there's a world-wide pandemic going on and the meat counters are stripped bare. OTOH, that last experience was so bad that I'll by fake meat before buying grass-fed again. I'll probably go to hell for dissing the foods we eat but don't take my word for it - try it yourself.

I don't like grass-fed beef, either.

If that's all there were, I'd just eat something besides beef.

I've seen some grass-fed beef sold in packages not clearly marked as such. The consumer has to be careful about reading the meat label these days. OTOH, I bought some sirloin today and plan to make this dish proper. This time I'll add some poblano pepper to my pepper steak.

Just get good bread. Good bread doesn't need toasting.
