I cooked some chilli overnight using a recipe that @Braai-Q kindly gave me.  

Here it is in the KK last night

Here it is for breakfast today

Here it is for lunch today

Luckily I just got a call from a Spanish friend saying he is bring round a long promised paella care package for our supper.  It will have been cooked on a BGE but I can forgive a paella bearing Spaniard pretty much anything.  More chilli tomorrow.  Thanks @Braai-Q aka my African Brother from Another Mother.  

Looks awesome. But my sister from another mister, where's the invite for the taste test? 😄 

I realised that I had quite a few different chillies going out of date in the larder. It prompted a grand reorganisation of the larder and the kitchen looked like a bomb hit it during the process - my wife walked into the kitchen, uttered something that ended with sh*t and disappeared as quickly as she arrived. So, I didn't want to waste the chili and within 2h of dinner, thought I'd make the chili, pressure cook and then leave the rest to slow cook. I was really surprised at the depth of flavour that 20m of pressure cooking provided. It didn't have that unctuous richness that you get from a chili cooked low and slow forever but the flavour was excellent and belied the time it took to cook.

Hey you can’t blame the bear he’s probably looking for one of Macs great breakfasts! Mac,Is it raining out or is your deck shiny like that all the time?

[MacKenzie]

Bruce, that is rain and we are having a miserable spring, cold, wet and windy. We have a break from the rain right now with some sunshine but the wind feels like it's out of the North.

Porridge Mac, that bear is looking for porridge.
But I haven’t seen you post any porridge photos!

Does that make MacKenzie - Goldilocks?? 🤣

[MacKenzie]

Someone mention porridge...

 

Just happened to make this in my Zojirushi. I set the timer to have it ready for breakfast. The first time I did it and opened up the rice cooker I thought, "Oh my goodness, I've ruined it!" 

Next move was to stir it up, and that is when the magic happened.

Added some date slices and called it fantastic. It has B&B cinnamon in it and a little maple syrup. It amazing, I thought I was going to be forcing this down but not so.

You know those little red candy hearts we all eat at Valentine's, well that is what my cereal tastes like. LOL

You bearly missed him 😃

I blame you, Steve, for the standard of jokes that followed.  Although I have to admit that Mac's baby bear is very cute (and scary!).  

[MacKenzie]

That is not the end of the story it was back this morning. It is all together too tame for my liking.

It made the rounds before the camera switched to daylight.

Then it made the rounds all over again.

Then when I was out feeding the birds it came back. I went in the house got my camera and grabbed two shots. I had to yell and bang my hands on the railing to get it to leave, That is not a good sign.:(

He probably smells all your delicious cooking and that’s why he’s hanging around....

[Jon B.]

@Bruce Pearson

I think that is Bruce dressed up in a bear costume trying to get some of MacKenzie's delicious meals!!!!! 

(do you have a second bear suit for me Bruce??)

[MacKenzie]

Troble, I sure hope it doesn't discover my KKs that could be a real disaster.

Jon, I think I'd recognize you and Bruce even in bear suits, at least you'd better hope I do.

Probably shouldn't do an overnight cook for a while...................................

[Bruce Pearson]

Jon  I don’t need a bear suit I’ve been sheltering at home so long I’m beginning to look like a bear lol. 

[Mcjudsten]

Everybody gets what they want tonight.  The kids (5 and 7) have been been champs about trying just about anything over the years, but for some reason have decided NO STEAK over the past month. .  .  .  Maybe I Weill take pictures of the plated hot dogs sometime. . . 

[Basher]

Lamb Agra tonight.

Thought I’d sear off the lamb and dry the ginger, garlic and onion on the KK.

Then into the slow cooker with coconut cream.

Maybe another 3 hours before the lamb falls apart.
