• Dinner Tonight: Corned Beef & Cabbage

    From jmcquown@21:1/5 to All on Sat Mar 16 18:34:24 2024
    I didn't wait for March 17th. And I'm not wearing orange or green. ;)
    Cooked it in the crock pot and the cabbage wedges steamed on top of the
    brisket are just about fork tender. Yum!

    Yes, A Truly Regal Repast...

    You dined alone, but you had all of your loyal bluebird and hummingbird "friends" outside observing...

    One of my neighbors brought me a plate of some tough ribs, they went
    into the trash as ribs is my least favorite part of pork. The plate
    included mashed potatoes and broccoli with cheese sauce.

    I'm sorry to hear about the tough ribs. (There's not much meat on those
    things, unless you go with "country ribs" which are not technically
    ribs). There's no reason for them to be tough other than they were not
    cooked correctly (low, slow, indirect heat). You didn't mention it but
    I've never been a fan of ribs slathered in BBQ sauce. I gather you ate
    the mashed potatoes and broccoli. :)

    I like pork loin steaks. I almost bought a package of them last week. $2.99/lb, two per package. Thick cut, intended for grilling. They were
    huge pork steaks! I'd have had to cut them in half (problematic given
    the bone) and wrapped and frozen three of them. My freezer is getting
    full. It's time for me to start using up what is already in the freezer
    rather than add to it.

    That would depend upon if they were sauced. Dry ribs, sure, they could
    work as soup bones. Bean soup, perhaps.

    We watch for meat sales at our local grocery . And I buy a whole pork
    loin which I slice myself . Same with pork butts , except I have the
    butcher slice them on his bandsaw for bone-in steaks . They usually have
    a massive sale every March , I'm hoping that I can get either a New York
    strip or rib-eye strip this year to restock my steak shelf .

    Positive. He can't read and she has no idea this place even exists.

    That would have been one serving of soup as ribs are mostly bone.
    They would not have been worth the effort, and I don't think barbecue
    sauce would have been all that tasty in a small bowl of soup.

    I'm not sure how she is cooking them, but she definitely needs to
    start at least 6 hours before she is cooking them now.

    Why should we? If there's 4 ounces of dead animal and 16 ounces of
    beans, it should be called bean soup.

    Although by that criterion, almost any soup would be "water soup". ;)

    I've done that. Specifically with beef ribs. Dom makes the ribs an

    You put a dead animal in your soup and then you don't even name the
    soup after it?

    Why should we? If there's 4 ounces of dead animal and 16 ounces of
    beans, it should be called bean soup.

    Although by that criterion, almost any soup would be "water soup". ;)

    If you made a soup from a human hand and a kilo of mushrooms, would
    you serve it as mushroom soup? :)

    Really? That's your strawman argument? Cannibalism?

    Ah, you missed the smiley.

    How many smileys should I have added?

    Of course I missed the smiley. It's punctuation.

    I've done that. Specifically with beef ribs. Dom makes the ribs an
    ecvells at pork ribs but kkeps aiming for beeg ones. They are 'good;
    wheb hot from the oven but over done come lrftovers. I make soup of
    the leftovers next day or two.

    yes, i consider it nearly a mortal sin to waste
    food, let alone food that some animal died to provide.
    putting them in a pot with some other veggies and spices
    to simmer for a while would at least get some value from
    them.

    Sin is treating people as things.

    let alone food that some animal died to provide.

    They're already dead. It doesn't matter. Now, if you were
    going to kill a pig just so you could throw away the meat,
    that might be a different thing altogether.

    putting them in a pot with some other veggies and spices
    to simmer for a while would at least get some value from
    them.

    I might not consider that value. Then the other veggies and
    spices would be wasted as well.

    WOW! That came out messed up!

    I've done that. Specifically with beef ribs. Don makes the ribs and
    excells at pork ribs but keeps aiming at beef ones. They are good when
    hot from the oven but overdone for leftovers. I make soup of the
    leftovers next day or two.

    culpa!)

    I do waste some food but try to minimize it. I haven't done it in a
    long time because I refuse to get them now now unless he agrees that I
    will cook them. He hasn't yet so I won't waste money to get them.

    On the beef rib soup, I use my own home made vegetable broth with added vegetables and lots of mushrooms. I normally would get 6 ribs of
    overdone beef so the soup is for 4 servings here. By the time the soup
    is ready, the meat comes off easily and is cut up then returned to the
    soup.
