Brussel Sprouts?   :panic:

Wonder how Lacarnut made his pork riblets.  I have some of those and need some inspiration.

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.

Brussels sprouts are grown when dingleberries go bad. They have to be fed crotch cheese, but the transformation is pretty rapid -- usually 3 days or so without a shower.

I just found this blog after I read your post: **** You, Broccoli :rotf:
Cabbage: Looks like lettuce, tastes like ass
Artichokes: How is this even a food?
Carrots, Please make up your ****ing minds

I LOVE artichokes. First you cut off the stem, take off the outer tough leaves, steam it in a steamer, melt butter in a small bowl, put some mayonnaise in a small bowl and then in another bowl put grated parmesan cheese (not shredded).  Pull off a leaf, dip it in butter (the side that is hooked on to the artichoke), dip it in mayonnaise then finally the parmesan cheese.  You can also skip the mayo or butter but you have to use at least one before you dip it in the parmesan cheese.  Put the "meat" side of the leaf on your lower teeth, bite down and scrape the meat off with your teeth.

Try it, trust me, you will be hooked.

We are having steak (medium rare of course), sautéed mushrooms, baked potatoes, salad and bread.

Tomorrow night we are having the salmon I posted about the other day.

Chris!   :rotf: :lmao:

This, about the artichoke, I just had to bring over:

Quote
Too lacking in flavor to give anyone an excuse to eat you for your own sake, instead you’re slathered in hollandaise, garlic butter, “Ranch” dressing… the thicker the better. You’re basically a nasty mayonnaise-delivery system. You take the most elegant, sophisticated diners and turn them into hayseeds sucking sauce through their front teeth and leaving behind an oily, wilted pile of spit-laden gnawed leaves in grotesque pyramids of compostable material. All so they can suck your fibrous, scrotal heart out. No wonder that even in this day and age, where chefs proudly serve dishes of sheep testes and porcine adenoids, the best restaurants just throw most of you away.

:rofl:

I sampled one in a grocery store.  Besides the butter, it tasted just like grass. 

Remember the DUmmie who made "Brussel Sprouts sauteed in brown butter over quinoa?"  That was dinner.

I saw a recipe for brussel sprout hash last Thanksgiving.  It looked okay, it had meat in it, but I didn't have any leftover sprouts to use.

I quartered the sprouts, put em in a tin foil wrap with lemon juice and butter, and then grilled them.  I also roast them, and toss em with balsamic.
