What's on the stove, oven, or crockpot today?

[Rebel SS]

Some battered catfish filets/strips I found, along with peas and chopped onions ( I can't find pearl onions anywhere !) in my seasoned butter sauce, and a few slices of bread. And look Glen, my world-famous tartar sauce!!! With lotsa horsey radish in it! Dinner reminded me of my Dad, we'd go up to the river and catch a 5 gal pail of bullheads, head back to his house, grab the pliers and skin 'em, and deep fry 'em in seasoned beer batter we made. Always made a huge platter, and we'd eat every one. Sure do miss him.

That looks great.  I need to go fishing next week when it cools down some. 

[glenn57]

You sure them ain't carp fillets.

Tarter sauce... must not like the taste of that fish.

Seriously looks good.

[Bobberineyes]

Looks great! I'm a big fan of pearl onions,  especially for pickled fish,little balls of juicyness!!

[glenn57]

I've pickled pearl onions, put a few this chili peppers in with them. Good stuff. But takes alot of them to fill a pint jar  and a pain to clean.

[glenn57]

Easy peasy chow tonight. Coborns 4 brothers course ground weiners, my homemade sauerkraut, some cukes and maters. Of course no forgetting the katchup and my girls famous homemade horseradish.

[Rebel SS]

I can't find the pearls anywhere, just the bigger (olive sized ones).
Haven't seen 'em for the last year or more....maybe thos are the size you guys are talking about? I'm thinking of the marble sized ones. Any ideas, guys?

[Rebel SS]

Don't even really see 'em online! What the hey is up with that?! They don't sell 'em anymore?! Another thing that's become rare are watermelon pickles...and candied yams! Not one jar or can to be found anywhere this year! 

[mike89]

[Rebel SS]

^%$#@! Forgot the mayo......back over to ALDI! 

No luck on the pearl onyums. 

[Rebel SS]

BLT's for lunch.....thanks to Mikey for reminding me!  As soon as I ate this, I wanted another one...

[mike89]

[Rebel SS]

Been thinking about that since ya posted it......how do you make it, care to share? Thinking soop today for some reason..

[LPS]

I've been thinking soups too.  Finally getting to that time of year.  But I had a ham, egg, cheese sandwich with Avo Mayo and a little onion. 

[Rebel SS]

Making my beef soop is gonna be spendy this year, what with the price of round steak or ball tips...

certainly!!!!!!! might be a little long winded though!!!!!!!

first off, the turkey was from thanksgiving last year. i take the carcass and biol it till the meat falls off the bones......all the bones. this makes its own broth also! so, we usually have plenty of leftover turkey i add more meat.......me likes a meaty soup. i've take raw chicken and did the same thing when its raw.....just boil the crap out of it.

secondly, i make my own soup mix...all from the garden.....but you could add your veggies too!!!!!!! its cabbage, corn, onions, green beans  peas, peppers, celery,.............so depending on how much broth depends on how many qts of soup mix i put in. about the only thing not from the garden are the peas! i always add some bay leaves to it, and salt and pepper.....

since i grew up putting noodles in everything, we add noodles. egg noodles work good, but we found in the frozen section a homemade type egg noodle that works great in them. thought that was a lost art. mt grandma made them when we did the chicken butcher party back in the day!!!

any more questions.........fire away!!!!

[Rebel SS]

Great! Gotta do that! But....think I could get the turkey meat some other way than making a whole one? Do they sell chunked up turkey? Mikey....?
I like egg noodles too, use the wavy wider ones in my chicky noodle soop. 

[glenn57]

Get a turkey booby, or chicken quarters.

not sure about turkey, chicken yes...  but I'd buy fresh or frozen birds.. much cheaper that way..  Aldi's has canned chicken in 10 oz cans... 

[Rebel SS]

Ooh ick....hey! How about a couple cornish hens cooked up? 

[glenn57]

Ooh ick....hey! How about a couple cornish hens cooked up? 

think those would work too!!!!!

oh i'd add some kind of tomatoes also!!!!!!

to me and keep in mind next time down the road..like chicken.......... grill it first a whole bird.......you can cut it in pieces, extra meat throw in the soup........ that grilled flavor in the soup is lights out awesome!!!!!!

[mike89]
