Didn’t get a post saucing pic of the rack but here they are mid cook and then my expert plating style. Ate with roasted broccoli and mac and cheese, great meal I’m going to start doing ribs more often too.
Also started a nice grease fire in my smoker when I increased the heat at the end to glaze the sauce up a bit
You, uh, don’t seem less irritable.
Pesto and tuna is an elite combo. Especially if you can get the really good tuna.
I can never tell what makes a good canned tuna. I eat much less of it since college. I enjoy basic Unico brand packed with oil, no flavorings. I’m sure there’s much better options.
What canned fish do you guys eat? Most regularly I eat sardines in spicy tomato sauce, sprats (tiny, oily fish from the Baltics), and whole cod livers packed in oil (w/ brown bread, hot sauce).
I’ve been to a couple Spanish restaurants where they crack open fancy tins.
Chocolate chip and sour cream Banana bread baking in the oven right now. Smells so good!
Damn this hour baking time!!
My superficial observation is that the better tuna in my store is packed in oil in jars. I use canned tuna for sandwiches, jarred tuna for pastas and salads.
I always make pecan banana bread now. The first time I had it was a few years ago on my first trip to Austin and I was hooked. Of course it also just reminds me now of that fun vacation.
I’m firmly in the no nuts in my banana bread or brownie camp. 
I get chunk white tuna in the foil packs, and also salmon in the same type of foil packs. I prefer salmon to tuna now.
Costco brand canned tuna is surprisingly great: it’s almost just one whole intact piece of fish in the can rather than a chopped up mess.
Isn’t it generally the case that “Costco brand X is surprisingly great”, I seem to hear this all the time about various stuff from Costco.
Not universally, but often. Their wine can be hit or miss, but their liquor is pretty good.
Canned fish in Spain is on a completely different level than anything you can find here. Well, unless you can find a good Spanish grocery store. You’re going to be hard pressed to find anything like that in your local chain groceries. Boutique places might have some of the imported stuff, but be prepared to pay.
the best lunch on the camino was one i bought the night before: sandwich-size loaf of bread, can of fish, and can of pimientos (red peppers)…perfect energy source that didn’t weigh too much in the pack and filled me up enough to last until dinner, which was often late.
I had Takis for the first time. Looking forward to obesity now. Whatever is in that powder is way too addictive to be legal.
While easily addicted to chili lime poison powder, I’m not usually a a sweets guy. My favorite sweet by far is Marzipan, which isn’t that common here. I’ve never made it myself, but this showed up on my youtube feed. Might try it sometime. Anyone ever made Marzipan at home?
Came to post how I forgot about this good but ghetto recipe and saw the last several days of photos. Fuck me. I ate 3 of these last night. Still a corn tortilla with carnitas person though.
We have decided to eat vegetarian 3 nights per week.
Here is my first dish.
Mee Goreng with spiced peanuts. It was pretty delicious.
I photographed hers with the disgusting cilantro as it looks better.
I’ve heard that people that don’t like cilantro say it tastes like soap(?)
Curious what it tastes like to you?
Yep soap. It’s genetic. I wish I liked it.
