wtf. Does nobody else make anything good?

I made a bacon, leek and cremini mushroom quiche tonight for din.

My 1st time ever making a quiche.

It turned out orgasmic.

Ohhhh! Very interesting.

Why curry? I mean I know curry powder is delish, but... Curried turkey for thanksgiving??

Basically because it just adds a little extra. It breaks up the flavor profile and reassembles it if you will.

I'm going to smoke it with peach wood today. We had part of one of our peach trees spontaneously self destruct from the weight of peaches last season so I've been using it to smoke stuff since then. It's a great wood for the job.

I'm of the opinion that any man that occasionally cooks for himself should own a smoker if he can.


It opens up a whole new world of flavor. I smoked a tritip the other day. Dry rubbed it with smoked paprika, chipotle powder, salt, black pepper, garlic pepper, extra garlic, oregano and a tiny bit of brown sugar. It was AMAZING. My dad has one of the meat slicers like you would see at a deli counter, so I sliced it up and have been making tritip sandwiches that are just unreal.
