Ziggy Stardust?

Little Drummer Boy?

On Saturday I found some beef bones marked down from their 2.09 per pound price. I bought them and roasted them until they were very brown. I had an onion, a carrot, and a celery stalk in the pan with them.

Those went into a crock pot and slow simmered in water over night. I strained the solids out and refrigerated the liquid.

I removed the fat cap and started tonight's dinner from there.

I made a small roux with tomato paste, added a bit of wine, some fish sauce, some Worcestershire sauce, some salt and pepper, and a herbs de Provence.

What we have here is a beef barley mushroom soup. Nancy made cornbread for the starch side. Does it get better than this?

I've had pig ear pizza, pickled snoots and ears. 

Ladies at work used to bring in stuff from a soul food shack in north St Lous. 

I did not like it. 

Love me some greens though.

To much good food on a gravel bar this weekend. Burgers to order, tortellini and Italian sausage soup, eggs to order, ham& bean soup with corn bread. Shared dinner responsibilities with a buddy on Saturday, tenderized some pre-smoked brisket (did in November and vac packed some points and flats) over the top of the wall tent stove for a couple hours and did a pot of beans. Buddy did the tater salad. 12 for dinner 15 lbs of meat. Maybe 2 lbs left. Was a hit.

Last weekend I made a meatloaf. I have posted before how I make one. Needless to say, the loaf was much larger than two could consume. Tonight I took the remainder and cubed it. Much went into a baggie for the freezer. We will use it later.

What we used tonight went with onion, mushroom, and fingerling and new potatoes. I drizzled olive oil over everything and seasoned it. Now it is in the oven and declared as hash.

Might work great in the morning with poached eggs and your thermos hollandaise sauce! Hash and eggs!

Thawed some chicken shoup out and had that for dinner. Making progress on the freezer. Gotta get some advice on cooking a couple skinless mallard breasts. Anybody ever eat that?
