So what did'ja eat?

[elchivito]

Last night: Tamales de chivo con chile colorado (goat red chile tamales)
Posole
Frijoles Borrachos

Today: 21 day dry aged prime rib , tarragon, wild mushroom demi-glace
roasted brussel sprouts with walnuts and bacon
puree of sweet potatoes with maple syrup and caramelized sweet onions
herb salad with pears and parmigiano reggiano
bourbon pecan pie with spiked whipped goat cream

Last night was women's work, They made a hundred tamales yesterday after the goat was stewed down the day before. Today it was my turn. I aged and cooked three full 8 bone rib roasts. There's a half one left.

Everyone's gone but the kids, the fire feels good. If I can just get my wife to turn off the damned carols, Christmas is a FULL YEAR away. Can I get a hallelujah chorus on that???

I like sauerbraten. Haven't eaten it in many years. Do you marinate your own?

Yep, spends about 7 days in the fridge marinating. My mother makes it...its a Christmas tradition since I was born and her mother before that (though we're not German, not sure how that works). It is indescribably delicious.

Go-withs?
Red cabbage slaw? Potato pancakes? boiled dumplings? More info please. I don't know how I could possibly be hungry right now, but it sounds really good.

The trimmings are traditional Slavic--Baby Carrots in mustard/honey gravy, mashed potatoes, pierogies, kielbasa, cabbage and sweet corn soup, smoked ham, all which are incredible with the gravy on top of them. I think we had some beets and greens on top of it, my mom can really cook a fantastic meal

Picanha (rump cover) chateau potatoes, green beans with brown butter and almonds. Dessert was cranberry pound cake with lemon curd creme anglaise.

Nah its basically a slow-marinated pot roast in veggies, wine, vinegar, and spices, sometimes beer, stays marinating for 7-10 days in my experience. It is seriously unbelievable. I've never had anything like it. Heading for leftovers to suffice the drooling as we speak

[QUOTE=tbomachines;2k[/QUOTE]

Yesterday: pate de foie gras and home-made hors doeuvres, Tilapia and potato dumplings with mutliple marinated vegetables and a side dish of couscous with lime.

Today: more hors d'oeuvre, beef consomme with sherry, salmon with mix of spicy marinated vegetables and stuffed mushrooms; dessert was three cheeses: Brie, st Ysere and English sharp cheddar, followed by non-alcoholic cider and home-made chocolate mousse.

I did all the cooking (and the clean up).
