Yes I did brown the meat first: Well season the Brisket. In the frying pan add a good glug of olive oil. Sear the meat on all sides. Put in the cooker. I browned Onion, Carrot, Celery and a few cloves of garlic in the frying pan. Add to the meat. 1 Ltr of Beef stock , a good splash of Worcestershire sauce and a small glass of red wine goes in with a herb selection of Rosemary, Thyme and Bay Leaves. Cooked on low for 10 hours. Remove the meat to a warm serving plate and keep warm. Squeeze all the veg through a sieve with the stock into a pan. Reduce the gravy adding a roux of flour and butter if it needs to thicken.

Electrophile Posted March 1, 2022 Share Posted March 1, 2022 I'm not vegan/vegetarian, but I love Morningstar Farm's Veggie Chik patties. I bought some when I did the grocery shopping this morning. Put a slice of tomato and some mustard on it? Delightful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strider Posted March 3, 2022 Author Share Posted March 3, 2022 I was hoping to make blueberry pancakes this weekend, but one look at my blueberries told me they would not last until then, so I made blueberry pancakes for dinner last night. They taste just as fine at night as they do in the morning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Strider Posted March 4, 2022 Author Share Posted March 4, 2022 A chilly evening and now it's raining. A perfect excuse to cook something in the oven and warm up the house. So I roasted a chicken with about 30 cloves of garlic and roasted some potatoes, beets, and carrots, too. Asparagus and green peppercorn sauce rounded out the meal. Chilled rosé was the beverage.

One's a regular stout for everyday drinking and one is a chocolate stout meant for certain occasions and foods. I'm a Guinness man, too, but every now and then, on chilly nights, the Young's Chocolate stout hits the spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ive tried that Oatmeal stout, good too but cost much more than Guinness which is far from cheap anyway. I always keep Guinness on hand. My next choice for a commonly available beer would be Blue Moon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
