What Are You Eating?

...duck/armagnac sausage...

That shit is so damn good...
 
Gimme da bone and the skin.
I've been cooking plain chickens for my sick dog. The other night basically the whole chicken skin just came right off the cooked chicken, so I put it on a sheet pan and crisped it up in the oven. The whole chicken skin chicharron did not last long, and it wasn't because the dogs got it.
Absolutely the best beer snack

Mushroom soup with wild rice, topped with fresh dill and green onions (props to Steve Cropper there). Made with an extra good batch of multi beast stock, the broth was silky and earthy, umami and delicious.

Garlic bread made with cheap Safeway super soft inside French bread (but good Kerrygold butter and fresh garlic) and arugula salad to go with.

Fred Meyer had chuck roast on sale for $5/lb this weekend so I dug through to find a couple with nice chuck eyes in them. I then pull those out and trim and cube the remaining parts. Sometimes you can even pull a decent denver steak out of them. About the best value I can find for a decent steak these days.

Steak was salted and refrigerated overnight uncovered before getting a vacuum bag and taking a 2.5 hour dip in a 132 degree hot tub before getting a good sear on smoking hot cast iron.

The wife made some Santa maria style pinquito beans and sauteed red cabbage and onions with sherry vinegar and brown sugar.
