Basher Posted August 26, 2020 Report Share Posted August 26, 2020 Tony b have you tried taking fresh beet and boiling/ steaming them for 20 minutes? Then rub the skin off and eat them straight. As sweet as corn. The pickling process can be overpowering and definitely doesn’t taste anything like fresh beets. If you like them boiled, roasted after coating in oil can be even sweeter. https://toriavey.com/how-to/how-to-roast-beets/ Forget about the baking dish. Bung them straight into your KK coated in in oil. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And yes, fresh roasted beets are the best! 5 hours ago, tony b said: Wish that I had a band saw. Fortunately, I do have a band saw, with an almost new Highland Hardware Wood Slicer® resaw blade. I don't anticipate any fuss (perhaps a bit of muss, but certainly no fuss). 2 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk @Basher I did not. I took “throw everything into a ziplock bag and call it good” approach....however; to be fair, I did tenderize the tri tip quite a bit prior to said maneuver 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony b Posted August 27, 2020 Report Share Posted August 27, 2020 Yes, I've done sautéed fresh beets. They are OK. I haven't roasted them, which I might give a try someday. In general, I like root vegetables (well, maybe not turnips so much - taddies & neeps are OK) and I prefer them sautéed or roasted over other preparations. The exception being potatoes and parsnips, which I also like mashed. I just have bad childhood memories of the pickled beets that my Mom would put on salads; even if I picked it off, it still "tainted" the rest of the salad. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tony b Posted August 27, 2020 Report Share Posted August 27, 2020 Finally got enough shishito peppers off my plants to grill up a batch. With ponzu & shoyu sauce & Maldon as an app. Injected a chicken breast with Tabasco Garlic Marinade. Hit the outside with Sucklebusters BAMM and Slap Yo Daddy. Direct, main, peach chunks, 325F. Plated with leftover polenta and a redux of the sautéed green beans. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alimac23 Posted August 28, 2020 Report Share Posted August 28, 2020 Bun Thit Nuong again this evening.It’s funny how you “forget” about dishes that you love. We used to cook this all the time, then life / children / season changes happen, and you forget it exists.We’ve recently rediscovered this one, and we’ve been cooking it every Friday night for a few weeks now, it’s so good!Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJR Posted August 29, 2020 Report Share Posted August 29, 2020 (edited) Early morning... 9lb prime from Costco, so quite a bit smaller than the first attempt. Injected with John Henry’s Texas Brisket Marinade/melted butter, and rubbed with Meat Church’s Holy Gospel/Holy Cow/powdered Worcestershire. Smoking a mix of coffee wood and pecan.

Sourdough bread. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
