    Pulse it just enough to break everything down a bit.

    Add 1 lb of Elk burger and a shot of olive oil.

    Pulse enough to mix well but not make too fine. I stayed away from any binders (eggs) on the theory it would stay lighter.

    Make into a loaf and bake 40 min. at 350.

    It was and is awesome comfort food. And, you can taste the bacon.
    Dayum...why didn't I think of adding bacon to meatloaf...

    I made a nice beef stew in the Dutch oven this morning. Onions celery carrots. Black pepper, smoked paprika, molasses, tomato paste. Let it cook down or a while. Garlic. Water and beef bullion.

    Browned the stew beef on the cast iron, made a roux to scrape up beefy goodness and thicken, added red wine vinegar and brandy to the roux. Added that mess to the Dutch oven along with potatoes.

    Final verdict: spice level and brandy flavor are money. It would be better if it were thicker. It'll be better tomorrow.

    If you want to make pizza in a cast iron pan, you need to try this one. Seriously, it's off-the-charts amazing. It's basically a reworking of the old school Pizza Hut style pan pizza - light almost fluffy crust that's been basically deep fried in oil on the bottom so it's crunchy and delicious. Totally unlike the normal pizza you probably make, but totally addictive. It's also really easy since you just pour the dough into the pan with some oil and it stretches itself.

    Big ass grass-fed rib steak, garlic and butter kale and smashed potatoes. Filet for the wife cause she's not a fan of most steak. Just means more for me, so I have no complaints.
    Remind me. We'll send him a red cap and a Speedo.

    Heh. That's what we're having for dinner tonight.

    I do love a steak for breakfast, though.

    Ever tried grilling boneless short rib? Costco carries it around here in 1" thick strips (each around 8" long). It's amazing grilled, super beefy but also nicely marbled and tender, and it's something like $9/lb. My new favorite grilling steak.

    I grill flanken-style short ribs Korean BBQ style sometimes. Quick marinade in soy/garlic/ginger/scallion/sriracha/hot mustard, then grill hot and fast. Tasty as fuck.

    I do that too, but this is different because it's cut thicker so you can grill it like a steak (charred outside, med/rare inside) instead of relying on a marinade for the flavor. But yeah, Korean flanken short ribs are the bomb too. Try using a pear in the marinade (Asian pear preferably, but regular pears work too as long as they're soft - I just use a stick blender to mash them to pulp) - it's how the traditional Korean recipes get the sweetness in there.

    For some reason I never considered cooking regular short ribs like steak, probably since I normally braise them and there aren't many cuts that work well both braised or grilled. I guess I assumed they would be tough if not crosscut like the flankens, and was too dense to think of treating it like flank steak. Going to try that soon for sure.

    I like your pre-planning skillz

    I'm going out to eat because, like usual, I don't plan food ahead of time and end up starving with nothing appetizing in the cupboards

    Whipped up some Buffalo chicken wraps.
    Marinated 2 boneless chicken breasts in a super secret Buffalo wings sauce(Frank's, butter and a little white vinegar).
    Diced some carrots, celery and blue cheese.
    Sautéed the chicken and assembled everything on large soft flour tortillas.
    Served w/ Left Hand's Oktoberfest Marzen Lager.

    Yup, panko with some smoked paprika mixed in to help set the color. Got my recipe dialed for that breading. Soak the chix in half beaten eggs and half buttermilk with some salt and cholula mixed in. Then straight into the panko before frying in corn oil in the good old antique cast iron chicken fryer.

    Runny egg yolk FTW though!

    Woks are just carbon steel bowls with a handle, so anything at the restuarant supply store will do as long as it is plain carbon steel. Stay away from nonstick, enameled, cast iron, or anything fancy... just a waste of money. You should find one that will last your lifetime for under $30. Treat and season it like cast iron.

    Bought mine at the local Asian restaurant supply store (China Chef Restaurant Supply on Federal at Alameda) for like $20. Carbon steel is mighty easy to work with. The only trick is that there are no residential stoves available in the US (that I know of at least) that are capable of putting out enough btu's to really make a wok sing. My fancy bluestar cooktop "only" puts out 22k btu's on the big burners which, even with the wok ring in place, just isn't enough heat to really get that restaurant quality wok'ing experience.

    You don't need to use the ring that may come with the wok. Sitting it directly on the gas burner will work. A residential gas burner isn't as hot as a restaurant wok burner but it'll do. Make sure to give the wok plenty of time to get hot before putting in the oil and food. Wash without soap, after wiping it dry (best to use a paper towel so you don't ruin your dish towels) dry it over the flame on the stove so it won't rust. Over time it will develop a black coating--wok ho--that acts like Teflon.
