• Newsletter foods topic

    From Daniel Traechin@1:229/317 to All on Thu Jun 20 04:22:41 2024
    Hi folks -

    Previously, I invited submissions for the upcoming newsletter and asked for salad dressing recipes. People responded as I had hoped. Thank you!

    Since then, more thought was put into the timing of that theme and it seemed
    a bit, how should I say it? Un-July-ish. I thought, "Why on earth would I theme July for that when it's peak BBQ season?" Well, it is for folks up in
    the northern hemisphere at least. But that's where I live - so live with it.

    And so it goes. With greatest respect on your submissions, salad dressing
    will be delayed until a future month before the year's end. All compiled submissions will be held until then.

    In the meantime, I invite anyone with favorite BBQ recipes to submit them
    for the July month. There will be five issues so there's tons of room available.

    Personally, I have a rather large repertoire of go-to recipes that will be shared and all submissions will be published with full credit, naturally.

    As a reminder, submission deadlines will be Sundays starting June 30 for the upcoming issue. Anything late will be pushed to the following week's issue.

    It can be anything BBQ related, even potato salads and marinades. Here is an off-the-top-of-the-head list

    Smoking techniques or tips are welcome.

    Ribs
    Steak (any variety)
    Pork loin
    Brisket
    Hangar steak
    Marinades
    dry rubs
    potato salad
    pasta salads
    quinoa salads
    baked beans
    dips

    That is all. This message will be cross-posted.

    Daniel Traechin

    ... I have a really good memory, except it's short.

    make three diverse BBQ recipes. Have fun.

    Title: BBQ Chicken & Cheddar Omelette
    Categories: Poultry, Bbq, Cheese, Vegetables
    Yield: 1 Omelette

    1 tb Unsalted butter
    1 ts Gate's BBQ Sauce (or what
    - you have on hand)
    1/4 c Shredded, dark meat, left
    - over rotisserie chicken
    3 lg Eggs
    Salt & fresh cracked pepper
    1/4 c Sharp Cheddar; grated
    1 tb Green onions; sliced

    Melt the butter into a non-stick skillet over medium high
    heat. Meanwhile, add BBQ sauce to the chicken and mix
    well. Whisk eggs with salt and pepper until combined and
    frothy; add to pan. Allow the eggs to cook for 1 minute,
    setting in the pan. Using a wooden spatula, carefully lift
    the cooked portions of the egg from the pan, allowing the
    runny portions to reach the heat-do not scramble. Continue
    in this manner until no runny portion remains. Generously
    arrange chicken, cheese, and green onions onto one side of
    the egg mixture. Using a spatula, fold over the other
    side. Continue to cook until cheese is melted. Remove from
    pan and serve.

    Welcome. If you need more, lemme know. I've over 35K recipes in my Meal
    Master - a fair whack of which I have made. Tell me the topic and I'll
    see what I can come up with.

    If the tag says "Uncle Dirty Dave's Kitchen" then I have made that item.
    If it says "Uncle Dirty Dave's Archives" then I've not made it - yet.

    Here's my first recipe from my first attempt at cooking anything:

    I was 13 years old and have never cooked anything more than hot dogs and marshmallows in a campfire. But, I had watched my mom and grandmother and
    paid attention, so ..........

    Title: Unique Apple Pie (An Uncle Dirty Dave Special)
    Categories: Pies, Fruits, Pastry, Dessert, Pork
    Yield: 6 Servings

    MMMMM---------------------------PASTRY--------------------------------
    1 1/2 c A-P flour
    1/3 c Bacon drippings
    2 tb (to 3 tb) cold water
    1 Egg yolk

    MMMMM--------------------------FILLING-------------------------------
    3 c Apples; sliced
    3/4 c White sugar
    3/4 c Light brown sugar
    1 ts Cinnamon
    1/4 ts Nutmeg
    1/4 ts Allspice

    MMMMM--------------------------TOPPING-------------------------------
    1 Egg white
    Sugar & cinnamon

    First, swipe some apples from that apple tree down the
    alley. A medium sized Kroger bag should be enough.
    Assuming you don't get caught, scoot for home and wash
    the fruits of your labour. Peel, core and slice (medium)
    three cups of fruit. Put in a bowl and cover with water
    to prevent browning.

    Make the pastry.

    PASTRY: In medium-size bowl, place 1 1/2 cups unsifted
    all-purpose flour. With pastry blender or 2 knives, cut
    in 1/3 cup bacon drippings, until the mixture resembles
    coarse crumbs. Do not add salt. The dripping provide
    plenty of salt.

    Add 2 to 3 tablespoons of cold water and an egg yolk to
    flour mixture and mix lightly with fork until moistened;
    gather into a ball. Wrap pastry and refrigerate 30
    minutes.

    Roll out pastry for a 9" or 10" pie pan. Butter the pie
    pan and place bottom layer of pastry in it.

    FILLING: Mix 3/4 cup refined white sugar, 3/4 cup light
    brown sugar, 1 tsp cinnamon, 1/4 tsp nutmeg and 1/4 tsp
    allspice in a medium sized bowl.

    Drain apple slices and mix with sugar/spice mix. If all
    the sugar/spice mix is not used up in coating apple
    slices spread it over the filling after transferring
    fruit to pie pan.

    MAKE THE PIE: Moisten rim of pastry with a little water
    and place top crust on pie, pinching top and bottom
    together to seal. Cut steam vents into top crust with a
    sharp knife. If desired, use a pastry brush to brush egg
    white on top crust for a glaze. Sprinkle sugar across
    the crust lightly and dust with cinnamon.

    Bake pie @ 350°F-375°F/175°C-190°C for 50 to 55 minutes
    or until crust is lightly browned and filling bubbles.

    Cool 10 minutes on wire rack before cutting.

    VARIATIONS... I often fry up 4 slices of thick cut slab
    bacon to provide the bacon drippings. Then crumble the
    bacon slices and mix with the filling.

    Serve with a slice of sharp cheddar cheese between the
    top crust and the filling.

    This is an absolutely scrumptious pie, if I do say so.

    First made in August 1955, Springfield, IL

    submitted by: brendad@corp.cirrus.com This one is from San Jose,
    California, USA. My husband enjoys fishing. While on a fishing trip
    for Dorado (Mahi Mahi) to the Gulf of California, Sea of Cortez, he
    picked up this recipe from one of the local fishing guides.

    Mix all the above ingredients in deep dish. Marinate fish for one hour
    before grilling.

    Tastes very good on fresh Mahi Mahi or Ahi Tuna. Depending on your
    preference you can cut back on the salt. I prefer to cut back on the
    salt by at least half or not add it to the recipe. Try it full
    strength at least once, then decide.
