tony b Posted February 17, 2022 Report Share Posted February 17, 2022 An Afro-Mexi mash-up = Suya Pepper steak skewers meets Mexican Torta. Torta with sauteed poblano peppers, onions, and garlic in a crema with lime and cilantro, fresh tomatoes and pickled jalapenos. Airfryer tots on the side, with a nice cooling salad. 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poochie Posted February 17, 2022 Report Share Posted February 17, 2022 (edited) Another dish fixed in a pan. I used my doubled half size steamer pan. Doesn't sound right, does it? I grilled the chicken thighs first, then put them in the other goodies. Put a lid on it and cooked it for 3 1/2 hours at 275-300. The last picture of the clean pan was showing that when you double the pans, nothing sticks. I rinsed it in hot water and rubbed it with my hand before it gets a serious wash. Anyway, the meal came out very flavorful. The extreme closeup of the served food was because my plate was so messy it was embarrassing.

C6Bill Posted February 18, 2022 Report Share Posted February 18, 2022 That looks fantastic !!! I should have asked if you got the 2 1/2 inch or 4 inch deep steamer pans before i ordered lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poochie Posted February 18, 2022 Report Share Posted February 18, 2022 I got the 2 1/2" deep for the full size steamer pans and the 4" deep for the half size steamer pans. I also bought the lids/covers for them. You may have had a place in your town that sells them. And either size you bought will work fine. I didn't come close to filling that 4" half steamer pan.

MacKenzie Posted February 18, 2022 Report Share Posted February 18, 2022 I like these steamer pans two and they are also good for sous vide. I have a couple of false bottoms, different sizes that I use for heat deflectors too. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poochie Posted February 18, 2022 Report Share Posted February 18, 2022 I bought something like that, MacKenzie. But it's an insert that fits into a steamer pan. It looks like a pan that Al Capone shot a bunch of holes. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
remi Posted February 20, 2022 Report Share Posted February 20, 2022 We've been flat out since mid-December when we bought a new house. Since then we've been preparing our current house for sale- which is epic amounts of work as I'm sure you all know. Little time for KK cooking- and then we also decided at the last minute to move out temporarily for the sales campaign (a very wise idea when you have young kids and pets!) So it's been awhile between posts for me. Our house sold at auction on Friday night- a sensational result; and so we've moved back in. The auctioneer even made a few KK references to ensure that the bidder knew that it wasn't included with the sale (just like the home brewery). What better way to celebrate than with a simple KK family grill- sausages of varied sorts, scotch fillet and eye fillet steaks, kofta, grilled asparagus and sweet potato with tomatoes from the garden. In three weeks we do the big move to our new place- where one of my big decisions is where to put the KK. We have secured excellent movers that are not easily intimidated by the KK, which is a big relief. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tony b Posted February 21, 2022 Report Share Posted February 21, 2022 Took advantage of the rare "warm" day here in February (upper 50s) to do some grilling. Lamb chops for dinner. Scored these monsters (1 1/2" thick) at CostCo. Direct, lower grate, grape vine for smoking wood. Melting potatoes with shallot crack sauce and a nice side salad. Decent Merlot from Trefethen. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C6Bill Posted February 21, 2022 Report Share Posted February 21, 2022 I use grape vine for beef sometimes, will have to try it for lamb too 👍 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dono Posted February 22, 2022 Report Share Posted February 22, 2022 Looks like an awesome meal @tony b Grapevine for smoke is new to me. I am going to have to try it. Does it matter what kind you use? We have a lot of muscadine grapes growing wild on the roads here. My Dad would make a port-like wine with them. Us kids would always go and help him pick them. Of course, we would always get eaten up by the chiggers. But the wine was good. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poochie Posted February 22, 2022 Report Share Posted February 22, 2022 Nice looking meal, Tony. I've seen those chops several times at Costco. Looks like I need to pick some up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to be from the South to know what "chiggers" are! Nasty, little tiny bugs that bite the sh!t out of you and leave a red bump that itches like crazy! They are worse than mosquitos! I really don't know what grave vine this is. I'm guessing that it probably doesn't vary too much between varietals? @Poochie - Definitely pick up a flat of these chops! I'll probably look for more on my next run to CostCo. Edited February 22, 2022 by tony b 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrus Posted February 23, 2022 Report Share Posted February 23, 2022 Shrimp marinated in Greek dressing, in the shell or with it off, it's good as change, tasty. This particular one has the olive oil. Crab cake, fish cake, stuffed Quahog with butter, cole slaw, Aldi asparagus and some tartar sauce. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poochie Posted February 23, 2022 Report Share Posted February 23, 2022 I see that the skewers are blackened so I guess the shrimp were grilled, but I don't see any kind of grill marks on them. They look plump and juicy for sure. That's a fantastic looking meal! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyrus Posted February 23, 2022 Report Share Posted February 23, 2022 Actually I wanted to have that marinade remain and not burn off so I offset them on the indirect side and let them come to temp. Grill marks on shrimp will give you a nice appearance, however that wasn't my goal this time. The shrimp will still pick up any smoke flavor and gather that good grill taste regardless. Those asparagus didn't film well, they were frozen...oh well, can't have it all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
