remi Posted Friday at 11:25 AM Report Posted Friday at 11:25 AM (edited) Birthday dinner tonight, with the added bonus of my brother visiting from interstate with his new baby. Some oysters, snacks and cheese followed by a reverse seared standing rib eye roast with heirloom tomato and fresh mozzarella salad with non-kneed bread and a good bottle of South Australian Shiraz. Can’t ask for too much better than that. Edited Friday at 11:26 AM by remi 6

remi Posted 5 hours ago Report Posted 5 hours ago (edited) Well, my birthday/ new niece visit has been a great success (let’s be honest, it was always mainly about my beautiful new niece!) My brother is waging a campaign at home to buy a Kamado of some sort, so requested brisket for our last night together in a bid to get his wife across the line. Decided to cook at 285F from the morning given we were aiming for dinner. Wrapped around 5 hours in, all done after another 2 hours. 3 hour rest. My usual sides of spicy salsa, horseradish cream, pickles, coleslaw, bbq sauce and smashed roast potatoes. I hope my brother is getting a nice bbq… Meanwhile, I’m on lettuce and sparkling water for the next week! Hope you’ve all had a good weekend. Edited 4 hours ago by remi 5
MacKenzie Posted 4 hours ago Report Posted 4 hours ago Wow, what a great feast. 🥰Your brother should be getting his KK soon.
Tyrus Posted 2 hours ago Report Posted 2 hours ago Nice meal, lot of flavor forward action going on. You do realize that when your bro gets his KK the games begin....competition, and from that some great exchange in ideas.. Looks like the plan may have worked, a crafty devilish plot meant to entice, you convinced me. 1 1
tony b Posted 40 minutes ago Report Posted 40 minutes ago Last night's dinner was a spin off of Thai Larb. Grilled a chicken breast (which looked like it came off a turkey!) and tossed it in the dressing (lime juice, fish sauce, shallot, cilantro, basil and chile flakes. Coconut rice and charred green beans in bibb lettuce cups.
