a pair of cooks from last week: Chops & Chicks

[Brian Dahl]

Hi gang! First on the docket was a trio of lamb loin chops: resting in a slather of oil, garlic,rosemary, basil and S & P.


and onto Red Jenny with a couple o' spuds. If you look closely, you can see my new flavorizer bars. I'm still working on gettin' that shine off!



a little closer



and dished up





next up was half a chicken... a couple of weeks ago, whole chickens were on sale. So-o-o, I bought a few, halved and froze them. #2r is tonight's star: dusted with Goya Adobo. I also soaked a dry'ish hot pepper, cut it into strips, and inserted them under the skin of Madame Cluck. She hates it when something gets under her skin - not us!



fixin's for veggie packets



and everyone on



and off



and onto my plate!



PSUTS (pepper strips under the skin) worked; I'll do more strips next time and have it work even better! Thanks a lot for stoppin' by, and I hope everyone has a safe and happy Thanksgiving! See ya round the fire...

Pork chops look gorgeous! Nice trick pepper under the chick's skin! Thanks for sharing with us!

Beautiful Brian!

 

[Rich Dahl]

Both of those cooks are really nice Brian, like the pepper trick on the chick.

 

[James Lake]

Good looking cooks neighbor. I have yet to even taste lamb let alone cook it. It has something to do with the Lady of the House having a little lamby when she was growing up. I need your team to pull through on Saturday.

 

[Jim Lampe]

Brian, I never get to grill lamb chops here, I want some (ALL) of yours.

OK?

I guess I have to race Lampe to the chops....good thing I live about 2,000 miles closer.

 

[Bob Correll]

A couple of beauties Brian!
Yesterday I halved a turkey to freeze for 2 separate cooks.

 

[Tim McCann]

[John Wheeler]

Not a lamb guy, but the chix rocks! Nicely done.

 

[Wolgast]

[Brian Dahl]

@ James and Jim: let me know when you are arriving, I'll need to round up a whole bunch of those little bad boys!
James - there is nothing I would enjoy more than a Civil War upset, but I ain't holdin' my breath.

 

[John Solak]

[Dean V]

Excellent looking cooks and plated pictures Brian.

 

[Cliff Bartlett]

Looked at this yesterday, but didn't have a chance to comment. Two wonderful cooks, Brian. Those chops and potatoes look killer and that chicken is gorgeous. Great job.

Great job on the cooks Brain, like the pepper trick will have to give it a try.
