           With the cold day yesterday and other things not going well around here we wanted some comfort food. So a batch of tomato bisque soup was made. It hit the spot and tasted like a summer day. So glad I dehydrated so many tomatoes. On the side was grilled cheese on salt rye bread and a tall glass of milk.

          Then today,

  I went on a cooking bender. I had read the winning recipes from here,

https://www.themeateater.com/hunt/small-game/world-championship-squirrel-cookoff-recipes

    Decided to try the first-place winner. Well, it was a winner here too. Followed the recipe exactly. 

 S&P the squirrel pieces then browned them. Dried chiles were seeded and got happy in some water. All ingredients blended to make the sauce thumbnail_IMG_20220107_105220247_HDR.jpg

     The browned squirrel added to the sauce and simmered four hours,

     When it was tender pulled from the sauce and deboned. Then added back to sauce. Taste test! Hot dang! 

 When Pat got home from work corn tortillas heated. Meat and sauce put in. Then Queso Fresco, cilantro and red onion. Juicy tacos. Can eat about half of each one buy hand then a fork is needed,thumbnail_IMG_20220107_183805079.jpgthumbnail_IMG_20220107_183917416_HDR.jpg

      Super good and can understand why it was a winner.  There will be some enchiladas worked up this weekend. All fork work eating :).

Clam Chowder - Been wanting a big bowl of clam chowder with some good bread.  Anyone got a real good recipe for rich, creamy clam chowder they'd like to share?  I've made some in the past that were OK.  Also, how do you keep leftover chowder from separating?

Works just as well for clams.

I also have chicken thighs in a yogurt marinade, headed for tikka masala.

              Been in a beef coma for the last three weeks,

  Farmer, we know offered us a good deal on beef on the hoof and I was able to get others to go into the deal and a deal it was. So, we took a half, gifted our son and his family a quarter than a quarter went to the doc Pat works for. Another whole beef went to another buddy and the third beef went to the farmer himself.  I even got to borrow farmer truck and pull beef up to processor in a fifth weel trailer.  Was a fun experience. I have hauled some loads before that are stationary in or on a trailer but never that would shift around.  Running up I-49 at speed was really strange. The three beef would move around and then the trailer and then me pulling them. The place I picked vac seal everything.  These were not giant beef. Biggest 1100 lbs., then 880 and 500. Farmer wanted the small one, the split up one I had part of was the 1100 lb. and buddy took the whole 880lb.  This was hoof weight of course so we got hanging weight. 14+ hanging days. This is grass fed beef. This stuff is good and better for you. A unique flavor quite diferent than grain fed. Plenty of fat for cooking and flavor but not too much. Marbling is there but not so much extra fat on the edges. We have put away t bone, ribeye, burger and bottom round roast. Thought I would share today's meal.  Hamburger steak with sides of stuffed jalapeño and something healthy cottage cheese. Knowing this would be occupying space in the freezer we did not even deer hunt this past season. First time in 43 years we did not take one to multiple deer. Last year it was five. Good thing we did not take one we are full. Will be a great addition to the game we eat. A guy needs some fat with lean right? :)
