What did you eat today?
rub with olive oil and roasted the
boneless ribs to 135 degrees at
350 and the temp rose to 140
when they were out of the oven.
Anybody can make this.
A meat feast its was. No starches, vegetables, or fruits. A true carnivore meal.
I ever made. Finely ground pork rinds, parm
cheese, onion and garlic powder, lots of
pepper, lots of smoked paprika. This chicken
almost melts in your mouth.
Quote: michael99000I am the opposite of a foodie. Guess there’s no term for that type of eater.
I eat the same exact thing 7 days a week
Morning: blueberries and strawberries in a blender with a scoop of vanilla whey protein and ice cubes. Awesome smoothie.
Lunch: four scrambled eggs with a cup of spinach.
Lunch 2: 1 cup oatmeal with a scoop of protein.
Dinner: cauliflower or broccoli with seafood.
About 2200 calories total. I eat all of that between 11am and 8pm , each meal three hours apart
I'm kinda similar. I mean, I don't eat the exact same thing every day, but have no problem eating the same thing at the same restaurant over and over again. If I'm going to restaurant X, I already know what I'm getting. No reason to "try new foods" that' just stupid tbh. I already know what I like...why would I want something else that I might not like?

You just have to make sure that those foods contain enough of the key vitamins and minerals.
I take vitamin D, zinc, magnesium , and biotin each day just to make sure.

Because you might find something that you like even more.

I've tried that method before and it almost never works. I know what I like and what I don't like.
When we all ate at the Mandalay Bay (where MaxPen had to get escorted through the service elevator lol), when we were discussing what we were going to order / what looked good, my side of the table was able to predict what I was going to order (ribeye medium rare, blue cheese crust, side of asparagus or spinach and likely a blue cheese wedge salad if they had that).
I'm actually having trouble thinking of a restaurant I go to where there's any deviation in my order....I guess the most deviation is In-N-Out, where sometimes I'll get a 3x3, other times I'll get two double-doubles.

That looks good.
I had leftover brats and ribs from Saturday. They are starting to dry out.
Brave. I never go more than 3.
Quote: EvenBobYou eat leftovers 5 days later?
Brave. I never go more than 3.
Yes, but they have dried out enough now that I will be throwing the rest out. I will eat meat for a week afterward.

Mixed a $4.99 bag of Trader Joe's ravioli with a bag of .99 cent ones and other than the size, the two were indistinguishable.

The beer was decent. It’s not unusual for certain styles to be cloudy.
Looks like the meat is covered in maple syrup or something.Quote: gamerfreak

Haven't checked out Vagabond yet. How does it compare to Wingcraft?
Quote: TumblingBonesHaven't checked out Vagabond yet. How does it compare to Wingcraft?
I’ve only been to wingcraft once and it was a few years ago, but I remember having a fantastic burger. I usually avoid the outlets because of the lack of convenient parking.
I would say the food at Vagabond is comparable, both are above average bar fare. I like it because it’s right down the street from our AC house and has a huge parking lot.
I’m considering making an AC food thread if there’s interest, I could post pics/reviews of a bunch of places.

I have never eaten eggplant but I notice you cook a lot with it. I am willing to try but I do keto and I noticed a cup of eggplant has 6 net carbs. I do 20 or less carbs a day so it is a bit high but I could do say a half cup.
Do you cook your eggplant separate or all together like in a casserole? It always looks good.

I always cook it separate. But there are
lots of eggplant recipes out there.
Quote: DRichYesterday I had a gas station hot dog as my only meal.
On my way to golf course from funeral. Stopped at gas station to fill up and take advantage of "Big Gulp" soda for less than a buck, and two hot dogs for less than 3 bucks. The girl says "the previous customer just took the last cooked hot dogs, but I can have two ready for you in an HOUR". Like I was going to wait there an HOUR for the hot dogs...... Come to think of it, I ended up only having a small bag of peanut M and M's for lunch, and didn't actually feel hungry during the day.... The Big Gulp was a great deal. A liter of diet Mountain Dew.... had around half left when I arrived at the golf course, and filled the cup with ice and it lasted me the entire round.

By the way, all the dishes you make look great. I don't love a fried egg so there was one I'd have to modify.

You seem to eat at home most every meal. What would you say you spend on groceries per month?

I only eat out when forced to,
restaurant food mainly sucks.
I'm only feeding myself, so
the cost is low. I mostly work
with Brussel sprouts, radishes,
eggplant, cauliflower, turnip
greens, green beans, cabbage,
chicken, pork, and occasionally
ground beef. I have just about
every spice known. Any fish I
eat is usually canned.
Always go for flavor and not
quantity. Slow cooking a pork
roast to 140, so it's pink in
the middle, has wonderful
flavor. Now that'd it's been deemed
safe at 140, you have no idea
what you're missing. Every bit
as good as rare beef roast.
a picnic roast baked at 350 for 1 hr 30 min
till it reached 135 in the middle. I took it
out and let it rest and 10min later it was 144.
You can make this, it's super easy. The bark
on the top, the crust on the fat cap, is so
delicious you won't believe you made this
yourself. Thin slice it with a little of the bark.
Look how pink it is. Full of flavor like no
other pork you've had. Completely safe
to eat at 140 degrees.
Eating is one of the few dependable things
we do in life. I looked forward to this all
day because I knew what was coming. The
veggies slow roasted and absorbed the
meat juices, I said 'holy crap' with every bite.
in paper thin roast pork from last
night, cheddar, and sour cream.
The red color is sprinkled on smoked
paprika. I buy the stuff by the pound,
it's too expensive in the small containers.
Try it, you'll like it.
The other pic is homemade coleslaw.
So much better than store bought
which always has too much sugar.
This has no sugar and has a tang
and sweetness all it's own.

If you like fried chicken and have not been to a Gus's, you are missing out. They have about 30 of them around the country.
Dinner was:
I made my own ceasar dressing with olive oil, because all the store brands use vegetable oil.
Vegetable oil are a toxin that pollutes your chakra energy.
My dressing tastes pretty bad. The olive oil taste is way too strong. Now that I think about it, this should have been obvious.
I guess there must be some type of fruit oil that isn't so strong.

Did you use extra virgin, it has almost
no flavor and is perfect for dressing.
The stronger kind is used for cooking.
Vegetable oil is awful for you, especially
soybean oil and canola oil.
"Vegetable oils contain a very high concentration of Omega 6 fatty acids. These fatty acids oxidize easily. Omega-6 fats have been linked to many types of cancers and a host of other problems."
Vegetable oil is another 20th century
'miracle' invention. Avoid it at all costs.
I only use olive oil, butter, lard, and
coconut oil.
Studies on veggie oil are scant but it doesn't look great. Also probably bad for T. Anyway, I'll bet on squished fruit over industrial waste.
I used star extra virgin.
I looked it up and it is real, however it was a cheaper brand. I thought the flavor of parm, anchovies, lemon and Dijon would be so strong that the base oil would be overwhelmed.
Incorrect. Maybe a higher quality one would work.
Quote: MaxPenI keep hearing there is an enormous amount of fake Olive oil on the market.
I checked out the Walmart brand
and it's pure olive oil. Some off
brand companies mix it with
sunflower or safflower oil.
Quote: RigondeauxYeah veggie oil is a super heated, chemically treated industrial byproduct invented only about 100 years ago.
Worst is canola oil. Made from rapeseeds,
it was industrial oil for machinery. They
discovered if they heated it to the temp
of the surface of the sun, humans could
tolerate it, barely. Any oil squeezed from
seeds is bad for you. As well as corn and
peanut oil.
Lard is the best stuff for frying, just like
it was in 1900. Completely natural, just
like butter. I grew eating oleo, it's amazing
I made it out of grade school. People
still eat that crap, the supermarket is
loaded with it.
A lot of it is adulterated by the Italian mafia.
Seems the only way to be sure is to caugh up some extra and buy it straight from the producer.
A better solution might be to go with California olive oil.

When I was a kid my grandma switched to Country Crock. My grandfather threw that stuff out. He claimed he might as well use WD-40. Turns out he was pretty much correct.

Country 'crock' indeed. A crock

I worked at a restaurant long ago, didn't really approve of them offering olive oil, but it was actually just a little olive oil with mostly vegetable oil, intentionally mislabeled of course.Quote: RigondeauxInteresting article about olive oil.

California Olive Ranch is the best widely available brand I’ve been able to find, and it’s not crazy expensive.
Do not buy any olive oil in a clear glass/plastic container like the Walmart brand, light will destroy it.
Good olive oil should smell like olives. Bad/fake olive oil smells like crayons.
Good and bad as with legitimate and counterfeit or pure and adulterated are attributes the marketplace rewards only if the buyer is aware and wealthy. Few buyers are.Quote: gamerfreak

Sunlight, yeah, artificial light no. So keep
it out of the sun. Plastic is fine if you
use it within a year.
