Very sticky fingers after that rack of ribs and chips. Probably should have had a finger bowl. Cleaned myself up with a facecloth and sink full of water.:D But by jaysus it was so good.

I have never cooked my own ribs. Do you just look for baby back ribs? How long in the oven?

going on the 5th Bottle of Corona

Moving to cans of Carlsberg after that for some reason can't drink over 5 bottles of Corona.

Don't miss a trick on pork ribs.

Douse them in lime and a liberal sprinkling of white plain flour. Most importantly, slow cook the phuck out of them. You want that succulent honied pork dripping off the bone. I roast with fresh red chilli, a squeeze of lime and Maple syrup

Wash down with freezing cold ice tea infused with cinnamon and dried clementine. White rum optional.

My butcher does the rack in a vacum pack with the membrane removed. 140 degrees in the oven for 3 hours covered in foil. I then turn off the oven and leave the rack for another hour. I smear in sauce before I cook them so they are really tender but crispy. I pour more sauce on when I serve if I want the sticky fingers effect. You can also cook without the sauce and add it towards the end of the cooking time. Try them some time. You won't regret it. Really simple and don't share.:D

A real Irish Sunday dinner and it shot straight to the spot. Mash, garlic spuds, peas, a thick slice of slow roasted beef with a bog standard bisto gravy on top.

SineadSpears · 10-01-2021 7:15pm

Had a sh1te dinner today. Was supposed to have a southern fried chicken thighs, rice (with cardamon & cloves) & a side veg dish with okra & green lentils.

Dont know what was going on. Made three batches of rice. First was too salty. The second was destined to have not enough salt:rolleyes:, but then it wasn't cooked right either. Third time lucky..... eh no... Fcuked that one up too.

So it was just chicken & a bit of meh cooked tomatoy veg the side

Cup of tea & Galaxy chocolate mmm

Roast fillet of venison, I've been looking forward to this particular piece since I butchered it and froze it some time back, it would have made a good few individual steaks but was put aside for a roast.

Herself did everything and added some carrots and onions to the roast just so they could be used to flavor the jus, balsamic vinegar, lemon juice and blackberry jam were also used, no stock and no granules. The juices were slowly added to a roux of butter and flour. I have to say she did the animal justice which is something we always try to do.

A bottle of Shiraz was shared and there was a few crackers with cheese for dessert.

No it comes with the 10 toppings. It is just the right size as well. You would be full but not overly stuffed.

Rack of ribs. Pre cooked, so reheated and spicy wedges. Very satisfying lads! Glass of bainne to wash it down. Not so sticky as not homemade in a sense.

I drove past Supermac's and my favourite Chinese and didn't give in. This belly is going down!

So was I Bassy! Or Corned beef for some reason. I'm eating cabbage since a young lad and never went away from it. Mrs G and Ms G had mushy peas with theirs. (Rows Grower will fooking want to kill me for that.:D) A really simple and tasty meal though.

I love the spicy food meals, but always come back to a bog standard Irish dinner because it's wholesome every now and again. Junk food tomorrow!:D

Herself had the parent /teachers meeting online this afternoon so it was my turn to pay homage to the local organic produce.

Backstrap of venison (marinated in olive oil, soya sauce, worcestershire sauce, balsamic vinegar, smoked paparika, crushed garlic and ground black pepper with a dropeen of Southern Comfort thrown in to the mix) pan fried with chestnut mushrooms and some chips made from Maris Pipers for a change. A cherry tomato for a bit of colour on the plate.

There were no complaints, I'll finish off the bottle of red now while herself watches her soaps. Oh yeah, a Malteser Reindeer from the freezer for dessert.

Our Chinese takeaway is a 246km round trip, we've been eating out of there for 25+ years. Usually would have it at least once a month but this Covid lark has shagged it.

Like yourself when we get it everyone eats alone, none of that talking nonsense when there is a chinky to be smashed. 15 minutes later then and we're all in the kitchen with empty plates and big smiles.

We had one just before Christmas so the withdrawal symptoms haven't kicked in yet.

I used the gravy from the beef over the potatoes, I’m afraid I’m over the 5km away. Highlight of my day is deciding what to have for dinner

Chicken fillet bap with lettuce, tomato and mayo on seeded bun. Cup of tea.

I specifically went into the shop to buy turkey sausages and they were sold out so I got Denny meat free ones instead. Will try them in the coming days.

Hesh's Umpire · 13-01-2021 10:59pm

A nice big lump of ham. Plenty of mashed potatoes. Parsley sauce. And a carrot and parsnip mash from the garden.
I think I'm going off meat though. I prefer the potato and veg to the meat. I might try a few meat free days.
