A can of sardines and crackers. That reminds me; I need to get that stinky can out of the house. I did not feel like cooking the two NY strips I have in the frig. That will be tomorrow's supper.

That sounds like a tasty lunch.  I haven't had sardines and hot sauce in years.

The Kroger over here had Saltines advertised as 'a Holiday treat'. :rofl:

Microwave dinner.
At the store I can buy a "Bucket o' Ribs." All I need to do is open it and nuke it. Followed by cheesy broccoli (another nuke fest). and tea.

Then I settle down for my radio-active feast.

Eventually I will get super powers!

The Shepherds Pie came out OK, everyone else really loved it though, here's what it looks like:

Was born in Germany, Mom and Dad lived there for many years before I was born, and she honed her cooking skills there.  For years I didn't know it was "special"  I thought it was dinner.   :-)

This was last night:  I took the advice of our Southerners here:  Since we had bacon for breakfast, I saved the bacon fat.  For dinner, I layered a generous amount of bacon fat (all of it) in the bottom of the castiron pan, then made cornbread.  SO good! 
With that as a side, I had made some chili in the crockpot. 

It had beans in it.   :fuelfire:

Even cooking cornbread in a cast iron, with bacon grease isn't gonna fix that transgression....

I keep a tub of bacon fat in the refrigerator.  I don't have much of it, but I use it when I can. :yum:

Looks like I'm going to be eating pork chops for a while.  I found some whole pork loin for sale and bought one. 

Good think I like pork chops.

That sounds tasty.  It's similar to how I marinated the pork I picked up.

Came out very tasty, the rice not so much.

I did another pork shoulder on Saturday, but I did it in the crockpot rather than a long, slow roast in the oven.

I like it better in the crockpot. Came out juicier and the flavor of the killer dry rub was all throughout the meat rather than just on the surface.

Alton Brown's recipe for pork shoulder has you brine it, but screw that. Brining's good for poultry but I ain't convinced it's good for pork.

Homemade baked beans and cornbread. 

Country ham, bacon, three kinds of beans.  Brown sugar.  Molasses.  This stuff is awesome.

Think I'm going to fry up some extra bacon for the rest of these beans tomorrow.  Yum.
