Shepherd’s pie

Threw an organic chicken on the smoker today. My son whipped up some homemade shells-and-cheese, and I whipped up some corn muffins (Famous Dave’s recipe) with honey butter.

Trying my hand at bread making. The sourdough starter traveled from Whales to Nome Alaska in 1895...... I been feeding it for years.

Last of the Deer backstrap from last year with some roasted cauliflower and salad. Deer was roasted in the oven at 350 until it hit 125. Rested and a butter/ginger basting.

Hobo stew! Ground venison, kidney beans, carrots, garlic, onion, and jalapenos with a mustard pan sauce. Pretty good for a fridge cleaner!

This is my first attempt at making bread in a dutch oven. Followed a very simple recipe in one of my dutch oven cook books.
It's not too pretty but texture is good, needed much more salt because it is very bland.

@Gr8bawana Be careful adding more salt. It will act against the yeast and give you a bad result. It happened to me. Both sugar and salt with effect the yeast. Instead add some parm cheese for salt, or go with some Mrs Dash seasonings. You don't want to add straight salt to it. I have a similar recipe to what you probably used and it is really yummy with herbs added to it.

Tonight was fridge clean out. Mac and cheese made with penne, mixed veggies, peppers, mushrooms, onions, tomatoes, zucchini, yellow squash, and fake crab meat (a dirty little favorite secret) and a bunch of different cheeses from the drawer.

Yup, too much salt will kill the yeast. I still use straight salt, just not a ton. Salt is impotant for the chew and texture.

I grew the last of the smoked javelina shoulder onto some nachos. Simple but good! Especially paired with a 9.6 ABV double IPA.

The recipe only calls for 1/4 teaspoon for 3-3.5 cups of flour. Making another batch today and I'm trying it with 1/2 tsp of salt.

The last of our 3 boys graduated from college today! Turkey dinner to celebrate. We haven’t seen them all since this all started so a great day!

Just grilled some chicken leg quarters with BBQ sauce today. Ate them before pictures, too hungry!
