It’s been a busy week as I am replacing the sliding door that leads to my deck. But Sunday I did spin a chicken and baked a loaf of pumpernickel for chicken sandwiches 😁 And managed to get some apple picking in 👍

It's Oktoberfest time! So some German snags (Brat, Cheddar & Knack), with potatoes au gratin and a salad. Silly me forgot to go to the store for some Oktoberfest beers. Next time!

Chicken Shawarma tonight. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The new 32" is already on the way and should arrive by the end of October. I was lucky enough to have someone cancel their order and I got to grab it. I asked Dennis for a 25% discount and he said that my jokes were so awful on this forum that he's charging me an extra 25%. Anyway, I'm happy to be back among the crew here and will post the obligatory unpacking photos as soon as I get it. Thanks again Dennis for the good service and being easy to work with! Oh yeah, I replace my previous puppy with the new one I have now in the profile.

I'll hold you to that!!

Everything is done and purchased. We’re keeping the cabinets and restaining them. Tile floor, new backsplash, new countertops, new fridge, dishwasher, sink, faucet new range top and new vent fan wife and I do our research online then didn’t answer entire day shopping at stores, it’s what we’ve done on all our home projects but she and I can make decisions quickly but we do loads of research online prior. Just waiting for the kids birthdays and parties in October plus a lot of electronics are back ordered but we have our final meeting with the contractor we’ve selected tomorrow but anticipate an early November start date. I will post some pics before/after when it’s that time

New kitchen Troble! There’s a whole new world of rabbit holes you are about to jump into. From appliances, to bench tops, sinks ro lighting. Good luck. You had better start looking now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

The wings look great, Tony. You were even nice enough to set out a plate for your pet rabbit.

Wasn't quite sure what I wanted for dinner, so the "default" was wings. Marinated in Uncle Dougie's sauce. Direct, 375F, peach wood. Plated with roasted spuds, celery/carrot/cuke with ranch. Bubbly is a nice wine to have with spicy foods. Have to admit that I overdid it on the wings sauce. I basted 2x on the grill after the initial 2 hour marinade. It was a bit overpowering. Should have left off that last coating.

Sorry, no cooks to share at the moment as we have moved out of home for further renovations. Back in a couple of months I may sneak home for a lazy weekend cook on the KK Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Troble when I left home after boarding school as a kid my mum always said that I had to learn how to cook 3 favourite meals. One of these was and still is a favourite, for my wife, daughter, and any other guest who stumbles into our house mid week. We know it as chicken asparagus. It’s really simple, very moorish, and pretty quick to prepare if you have pre cooked leftover chicken. Try this. 4 seasoned cooked breasts diced, or a whole Chook. 15 asparagus spears/ or two tins if out of season. 1- 2 tins of cream of mushroom soup/ or cream of corn soup. I prefer mushroom. 1 tub of sour cream- 350g( 1lb) 1/2 cup of sherry or red wine Cheese grated. Paprika/ herbs of choice. Layer the asparagus spears and chicken in a casserole dish. Mix the cream of mushroom soup with sour cream, sherry, then pour over the chicken/ asparagus. Grated cheese on top and a sprinkle of paprika You can add real mushroom or corn or both and play around with your seasoning. Oven roast for 30- 50 mins until cheese browns at about 180c( 360f) in your KK or oven. Serve it over a bed of steamed rice. It’s one of those meals you will keep eating until you feel like exploding. Good luck with this. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Texas Twinkies, Sausage, and Chiken wings, what could be the compliment to Game day if not that. I really have to put that beer down and pick up the camera for a few better shots, it's a work in progress. I hope your team did better than mine,

@C6Billid be interested in seeing what kind of chicken salads you make. I usually buy the value pack at whole food where you get 6-8 breast for $17-$22 and I cook them on Sunday night after I do a big KK cook. I usually do one of three things with them 1. Summer strawberry chicken salad with candied walnuts, strawberries, arugula, Parmesan cheese & raspberry vinaigrette 2. vegetable salad with carrots, cucumbers, bell peppers, avocados, chicken, spring mix, Parmesan cheese & raspberry vinaigrette 3. grilled chicken quesadillas with homemade flour tortillas, oregano, garlic powder shredded cheese and sliced avocado on top I try to eat somewhat healthy when I can but I struggle for healthy chicken salad ideas and usually end up doing the same thing over abs over. I’ve posted all 3 of those dishes before but stopped because I cook them so much and they are so “boring” that I didn’t want to piss off @tony b or @MacKenziewith my pedestrian chicken breast dishes every week 😀

A nice fat porkchop for dinner last night. A side of pasta (semi-homemade sauce with my tomatoes), some grilling cheese and a nice salad & crusty bread to round it all out. Direct, main grate, 325F. Hickory chunks.

Too busy hosting my cousins and keeping an eye on 6 kids to take photos but made lamb shawarma on the Trompo king

I have been neglectful with postings so here goes- Chicken thighs on the KK and veggies. Smoking things up. Plated. Scallops and fries. Sauerkraut coleslaw. Drumsticks and pasta salad. Pulled pork and pasta salad. View over the KK.
