Decided to braise a tri-tip tonight. Seasoned it, seared it, reduced some yellow onions with some boxed onion soup, added the meat then off to the oven.

Seasoned:

Seared:

Fresh out of oven:

Mmmmm good...

The juice is very very good over the meat, potatoes, or whatever else you want it over[emoji106]

Mmmm, that tri-tip is SWEET!

Here is what happened today

3-1/2 lbs of beef shoulder braised in red wine and port with the usual stuff at 325 for 4ish hours to fork tender and shredded like a pork butt

Meat juice reducing

Cheese sauce made with fajita spices

All mixed together

YUM! Anyone who isn't in their car driving to eat this is a fool!!!

Dang it! You'd probably eat it all before I got there...

All I need is a Foley catheter, side bag, Depends "undergarment" and my remaining stash of jerky and I think I can do it...just need to get an Air Force KC-135 StratoTanker to do some mid-journey refueling runs....

Just getting a chance to upload some pics - inspired by this thread - Sunday night threw some steaks and baked potatoes on the grill. We split one steak and had the same thing on Monday night - added some of our version of Mexican Corn or Street corn. The corn is grilled and then cut off the cob, dressing of mayo (1/2 to 3/4 cup depending on how much corn you have), 1 tsp chili powder, a full tablespoon of smoky paprika, 1 tsp garlic powder, 2 tablespoons of red wine vinegar. Pretty good stuff.

After dinner - we were stuffed, but the chocolate cake back up in post 117 was calling our name. Made a trip to the store to get buttermilk - gotta have it for recipes like this. I have to say, it really probably is about the best chocolate cake I've had. I can't make it often because it is rich with that icing, but it is a new go to cake - very good stuff. That recipe has been saved in a few places as to never lose it.

The one joy of baking once in a while is using a mixer that belonged to my Great Aunt - at this point it is probably close to 60 years old or so - works like a new one.

Thanks for the inspiration.

I seem to be picture challenged when adding more than a couple - but that finished cake looks just like up in 117 - it was amazing.

Nice cake!

Who the heck thinks somebody can walk 950 miles in 12 days? 79 miles per day. Every day. 12 days in a row. 6.6 miles per hour for 12 hours per day. Every day. 12 days in a row.

Decided to use up some Italian sausage I had and some peppers getting a little too old -

Sausage & Peppers

I like cooking the sausages on the grille -

Then I cook up the onions, garlic and peppers in pure olive oil -

Slice those sausages up and give it a good mix with salt, crushed red pepper and Italian seasoning mix -

Add about 2 cups of Victoria brand White Linen Marinara sauce -

Cook another 30mins on low heat and serve over pasta or with a big chunk of Italian bread. A nice glass of red wine goes well with it or your favorite beer.

That looks delicious! I spent the day removing all vegetation from the pots around the pool and replacing with new flowers and plants. Of course while doing that I found a few water lines going to the planters that needed repairing. Long story short, it was a quick burger and hotdog for me this evening. Now I just sat down and the Blues Brothers are starting, I have no choice but to watch it........again

2 lbs ground beef, 1 lb ground pork and 1 lb breakfast sausage just because it was there. Next time I'll leave out the breakfast sausage, it made it a little weird.
