Gotta brag

Ok I have to brag about this.

My wife had to work today but she wanted roasted chicken for supper. Well I feel that I am a pretty good cook. I have made Pot Roast, Lasagna ( sp ) and other things that require some sort of skill. I have never made a roasted chicken before though. Well I made it to what I thought it should be like and guess what, the whole family said it was great. My 8 yr old said that it was super,super, super, super good. My wife said that it was the best meal that she had had in awhile.

The skin was crispy, the meat was juicy and tender, the stuffing had a very nice flavor ( home made, not store bought ) the mashed potatoes were nice and creamy. The gravy was made by the wife and complin\mented everything very well.

I just had to give myself a pat on the back for this one.

Hmm ... "skin was crispy, the meat was juicy and tender". I had some come out like that one time and I thought the food replicator was on the blink. I'm used to rubbery skin and dry, chalky meat. - Magic 8-Ball

Yum! Just like good baked grlnak! Are there any tiny women here who can cook? - The Elf

My big achievement is Eggs Benedict...the Hollandaise sauce is made of egg yolks, butter, a little lemon juice, and a dash of cayenne. I love having friends over on a Sunday morning, and making it for them...they love it, nonetheless they all refer to it as "The Cholesterol Fantasy"...particularly since it's so dense, we all sit around and stare crosseyed afterward!

It's okay, Fastback. The heat it takes to thicken the egg yolks (w/o melting the butter, THAT'S the trick...) will kill any Salmonella bacteria. It IS a cooked egg.

Hadda bury a few people awhile back before I learned that one, tho'....

Hey you guys He Can Cook Very Good
Let me tell you he can really cook, he made cream puffs that only lasted 8 hours and they lasted that long because we went away.
he makes up things to like a loaf type meat that we call mixerupper it has hamberger, sausage, bacon, breadcrumbs and other stuff it is really good.
he makes really good spagetti with meatballs and they are made from scrach.
my only complaint is that he doesn't cook enough. or often
He should of been a cheff.

I am a very proud wife

DAMN, now I am hungry!!!

My wife is a darn good cook, but when we want Chinese, Mennonite, or Tri-Tip, I take over! I also do an outstanding "S-l-o-w" (6 hours on low heat grill) grilled Salmon in Garlic butter, hand rubbed in seasonings and spices! (I'm allergic to fish and have never tasted this, but no matter how big the Salmon, it doesn't last long!)

Harder

P.S. I also do the wild meats!! Anyone want recipes for Beaver, Skunk, Racoon, Rattlesnake, Venison, Grizzly and Black Bear, Moose, Duck, Goose, Porcupine (one of my favorites), or name it, I probably have a recipe for it!
