Plate ‘em up

Yum! I dig the Leinie’s Original, but it’s Octoberfest season ‘round these parts

Does leinies make an oktoberfest? Or you talking a different brand?

Does leinies make an oktoberfest?

Yes and it’s quite tasty!

 

[Nick87]

Oh my… yes and it’s the bomb!

Really ? I've never seen it and I pride myself on being a leinies connoisseur. Is it out up there now?

 

[Treeshark]

Yep just noticed it hit grocery stores last week. Give it a try, I bet you’ll like it.

Hmm I'll ask around if not I'm heading north sometime in Sept. I'll find it. Thanks for the heads up.

 

[Nick87]

There so many limited releases I wish they'd bring back. Orange Shandy, Red Lager and Hoppin Helles are three that come to mind.

Samuel Adams makes a good Octoberfest as well. I look forward to it every year!

I feel like I bring this up every year. One of my favorites styles of beer are the Oktoberfest marzen or festbiers. Leine’s does one of the better wise spread ones. If you get over the river to the west of you in MN, Schell’s does one better. That is one beer I genuinely miss from MN since moving.

 

[Treeshark]

Schell’s does one better.

Hard for me to say if it’s better or not, I like them both- but the Schells one is very good, agree.

There is some pleasure in eating a meal solely produced on your place. It was good.

It’s a Mexican sauce. Has a lot of spices, chilis, different kinds of seeds and dark Mexican chocolate. It’s not overly spicy, but very bold flavor. Usually served with big chunks of chicken which is what I did, but can also be put over enchiladas, burritos or other Mexican fare.

The chocolate is interesting. I wish you lived closer. I'd be over for dinner a lot. mtmuley

Dinner and dessert all wrapped up together. The Mexican dark chocolate isn’t creamy like Hersheys. It’s bitter, which adds almost a coffee taste to the sauce. There’s plenty leftover…

Tried a prepackaged tri-tip with a Hatch chili marinade. Did it in the oven and it was pretty good. No pics.

 

[Wildabeest]

Sauce would probably also be good with game birds, squirrel, rabbit, etc. What say you @BrentD? Hank Shaw has a few mole recipes on his website with game birds.

Elk sirloin topped with carmelized onion and blue cheese. Served with baked potato casserole and crispy brussel sprouts.

Elk flat iron steak. If you are throwing this cut in the grinder, shame on you.
