A fitting 50th birthday feast

[Timothy F. Lewis]

Wife’s son turns 50 on Tuesday but, it was family dinner night (every Saturday for 12 years has been) so, I made him this feast!


I love my people at this bakery!

If you have to turn 50 that is the way to do it! Great meal!

I love the double use of the vortex! Everything looks great, what was the bacon for?

Creamed spinach, I should have done three times as much the grandchildren went nuts over it!
Rendered the bacon, drained off most of the fat, sweated a nice shallot in the fat, deglazed with about a snifter of brandy, dropped about a tablespoon of flour in developed a bit of roux, then in goes maybe 1-1/2 cups of cream and some soft cream cheese, rasped some nutmeg over it let the cream reduce and thicken. Pretty simple really.
Yeah, I had considered firing a second grill but, for once, this was the right way to go, one BLAZING fire, two products!
The gasser did the potatoes and beets.

These folks are the best!
They do all our cakes, this was last Easter, the year before they did the bunny from the other end! There are Easter eggs hidden on it too!
I’ve had them just “cut loose” and the crew says it’s nice to do something different!

I'd be thrilled with that spread for any birthday, or any day for that matter.

Jim, give me a few days notice, I’ll make it happen buddy!
A rather macrabe “Valentine’s Day” cake but granddaughter thought it was hilarious

Damn that looks good! Great job on the dinner!
