One of the rare days it hasn't rained this summer. I actually got to use the grill!

Nice, Mama! Bill, I'm Jonesing for spaetzles & cheese, and I know I'M the one who will have to make it.:yum: The crap they sell as spatzles in the store is a joke.

DW made dinner tonight from a recipe she found on facebook. Oven roasted chicken thighs topped with Greek yogurt, granulated garlic, Parmesan cheese, seasoning salt & fresh ground black pepper. 375F for 45 minutes until browned. These were mighty fine groceries!

 
She sets a nicer plate than you Joe....:whistling:
I had liver and onions for the first time in almost a year. Steamed some fresh squash and made mashed taters. Dang it was good eating.
 
I made a nice anniversary dinner for my bride of 41 years today, and she was pleased with my offering. Pan seared pork chops, fried potatoes, veggie medley and a nice salad.



 
I made bread this morning since it was the first day I've had off in the past 10 days, then defrosted some pulled pork and made gravy, broccoli & smashed taters for dinner.



 
It all looks great as long as the broccoli is super tender !! Any chance of getting the recipe for the pulled pork. I bet it tastes good with everything.

OT.
 
For what??? The chicken recipe is there above the picture. Mix it all together and spread it over chicken parts. 375F for 45 minutes until nicely browned.

I was looking for the amounts of each ingredient. :doh:

Pre-heat oven to 225F.
Pork shoulder roast - bone in. If it has a fat cap, I always trim it off.
Season with salt, fresh ground pepper, garlic powder, onion powder and paprika.
Put some oil in a roasting pan and sear all sides of the roast.
Deglaze the pan with 1/2 cup of red or white wine and scrape all the "stuff" off the sides and bottom of the roaster.
Chop up some celery, carrots & onions and line the bottom of the roaster with it, then put the roast on top and pour one 14 oz. can of beef broth in the pot.
Cover and cook for 8-10 hours until the meat shreds. Shredding occurs when the internal temp reaches 190F.

I usually put it in the oven when I go to bed at 10 pm, and it's ready when I get up in the morning.

Just smear some of the yogurt on the chicken, then season with those ingredients according to your taste. As they say, it ain't rocket science. this is cooking, not baking, so let your wild side loose and have a good time.:yum:
 
Mrs. JEV made some great salads for dinner with fresh corn on the cob as a side. I grilled up some chicken tenders to top the salads and drizzled her homemade balsamic vinaigrette dressing. Had a hankerin' for some English muffins, so I made up a batch since I had nothing else going on.



 
We both got home late from work, so we decided to have breakfast for dinner. I shredded some potatoes and Mama had fluffy scrambled eggs while I had a Mozzarella omelet to use up the cheese in the fridge.

 
my Mom/i volunteered me to get us food earlier, as she was preoccupied. she got panera (cheese panini & tomato soup)- most of that soup found its way pushed toward me (that's a Mom, for ya').
then i got 1/2 a veggie sub elsewhere. i got bacon on that sammich, tho.
we kinda split both dinners.

i'm gonna look to replicate that soup my Mom ordered yesterday. (my Mom was in silent awe that she properly identified an herb in that soup- she is not quite the cook, so this was a shining moment fer her~) i'm making that soup, a strip steak w/ a poached egg, & maybe a salad.

(.......not that my Mom cannot cook excellent, um..... well, she makes great potato salad! & she pours a mean bowl of cereal.)
 
At the request of the birthday girl, Fettuccine Alfredo with grilled chicken breast, broccoli and fresh baguettes. Birthday cake for dessert.





 
With a little nip in the air, it was a good night for chicken-n-rice soup & a toasted cheese sammie with onion & tomato.

 
I made chicken breasts in a white wine sauce. It was served with mashed potatoes and home grown yellow wax beans.
 
We were car shopping for DW most of the day, so dinner needed to be something easy. Had some marinated chicken breast in the freezer, and whipped up some pan fried taters, broccoli and garden fresh tomato salad. Topped the taters and chicken with salsa. Going back out tomorrow, and may come home with a new vehicle if DW can make a decision. They're all the same in the category we're looking, and the prices are all very close.

 
Spatchcocked a chicken, brined it overnight, seasoned it and put it on the smoker with apple wood.





 
It hit 95F today in Cleveland, breaking the old record set back in 1964. So I thought that a nice cold salad would make a good dinner meal. Pretty much cleaned out the fridge including the leftover chicken from last night's dinner. It hit the spot!
