What's for dinner?

So, nobody has had an interesting dinner since Monday?
I had a bowl of porridge laced with turmeric and honey

Still no idea what's going on. It's infuriating, but I can't let it consume me.
 
I might have to break out the sous vide this week. My girlfriend is off to the beach, and I'm a bachelor for the week. I won't tell her if you don't.
I love that thing especially for beef. Also in-shell pasteurized some eggs a few times; kinda coagulates teh whites, but won't cook them.

Getchaself a nice choice or prime steak on clearance (one grocer near me does that) or buy ungraded (do that all the time for tenderloins and they're always fantastic).

*sigh* one day I'll be able to eat meat that has fat in it again

…or any comfort food.

This was the cake for an engagement party tonight. View attachment 69837

Made a focaccia with tomatoes and smoked mozzarella (only on 2/3 because I thought the kids wouldn’t like it - I was right). Unfortunately my wife wasn’t feeling well so she didn’t have an appetite and for some reason the kids had no interest (after I had asked them if they wanted it before making it). So I ended up giving away about 1/3 of it and eating the rest almost entirely by myself. No regrets. It was delicious. So fluffy and soft.

Smoked perfection 😍
Hoping so. Resting in foil for a bit but I'll have a little nibble before bed. There was soooo much fat that rendered out of those thighs! The whole grate is getting another 1/8in of seasoning tonight, haha!
Also, anyone with a BGE/komodo style grill, getting a heat shield is a game changer. A while back, I got a simple cut and bent triangle from a metal shop out west for ~$40 and it's makes all the difference in the world. Don't get the stone. No need. I throw a pan on top to catch most of the drippings so they don't smoke/flare up. Works great.
 
Unless you're making pizza or bread, then the stone is a game changer requirement.
Yeah. But I have a baking steel for that. And also a pizza oven that's meant for gas ranges. Don't have a gas range but have a 72K BTU propane burner. This one. But with legs. I've heated the "oven"(just a dome with a stone in it) to over 900F before and cooked a pizza in 1.5 minutes. ;)
660-680 seems to be the magic range though.

Also, I couldn't imagine trying to clean off all the burnt on fat on a stone insert, breakage, etc. Too many opportunities to mess it up. Why's this bread taste like bbq sauce?
