What's for dinner? Pics optional....
« on: June 02, 2008, 05:02:22 PM »
Pacific time here, and since I had not had a meal yet today, I had dinner early...

Petite Cut Top Sirloin steaks....marinated about an hour in a bourbon peppercorn marinade...along with some other things I rubbed in....(Garlic & Herb Mrs. Dash, Salt & Pepper)

I like these $19.95 grills from Wal Mart...if I trash it, I just buy a new one....they work well and cook just at the right heat....very limited flare ups as well...



Had this with a fresh Romaine blend salad...

So whatcha havin'?

Living alone (Praise God) I eat my share of frozen dinners as well...

Did I mention the steaks were on sale? Had to buy the larger package....of 5....then they were only $2.99/lb....there were four on the grill and another nice sized one still in the fridge...........only $8.53 for all of them (Not only can I cook, I can also be thrifty)

I even washed clothes at the same time....quite the male multi-tasker today!  :cheersmate:

What keeps them from slipping off the grill and falling?
If you want to worship an orange pile of garbage with a reckless disregard for everything, get on down to Arbys & try our loaded curly fries.

Is that the gas or charcoal grill?

Gas.

I have used it five or six times, still on the first little bottle of gas. (2 bottles for $5..sure beats heating up the house and having it smell like meat for two days)

We are leaving town for a few days so I am trying to use up some stuff on hand.....

I made patties out of ground sirlion (I mix it first much like meat loaf) and cooked them on the griddle.  I made a topping for the patties out of some leftover canned diced tomatoes, a squirt of ketchup, a dash or two of Louisiana hot sauce, and a splash of red wine vinegar.

I fried some okra (yum), and warmed up some corn niblets with butter.

It was very good.  My wife came back for seconds and she never does that.

I have a slab of meat in the refrigerator.  I was thinking of making curried beef, but I need to pick up some ingredients.

Looks like all I have time for tonight is a frozen dinner.

Was at the ballfield tonight (they won  :-)) so I'm sitting here now wating refried beans  with tortilla chips.   Sucks when Mr Flame is out of town!

NAMBLA is a left-wing organization.

There's a reason why patriotism is considered a conservative value. Watch a Tea Party rally and you'll see people proudly raising the American flag and showing pride in U.S. heroes such as Thomas Jefferson. Watch an OWS rally and you'll see people burning the American flag while showing pride in communist heroes such as Che Guevera. --Bob, from some news site
