Homemade Grub during Shelter in Place

I've made several trips to my local Costco. Almost no lines at the gas pump and most items are well stocked.  $1.50 hotdogs to go only. Gotta wear a mask though.

Engage your smell-o-vision...

Pork shoulder at 11 hrs (currently ~180* internal temp) and spicy pepper jack bread fresh from the oven.

Wow...I think I can smell it!

It’s real good. Maybe my tastiest pulled pork yet. Dinner last night was open-faced pulled pork sandos on home made bread with  Carolina-style finishing sauce, topped with pickled red onions from our garden. And a side of sautéed broccolini with Meyer lemon and a little garlic.

Dinner tonight will be the same, only tonight we have Brussels sprouts and arugula salad instead of broc. I can’t wait!

It’s really easy to make. Find any simple  “no kneed” bread recipe online, follow it, then mix in a cup or so of shredded cheese before you leave it to proof overnight.

thanks for the info Alex

Chicken tikka masala I made last night with my folks. Smashing success.

Just made some halibut with this recipe. It was amazing!
2 tablespoons butter melted
2 tablespoons honey
Juice from 1/2 lemon
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon Chile garlic paste

Marinate 1 lb halibut portions for 20 mins then sear on high heat for 90 seconds per side. Reduce heat to medium until fish is flaky (was about another 2 minutes).

Served it with some steamed rice noodles Dressed with sesame oil, soy and chile garlic paste. Simple steamed veggies completed the meal.

Sorry, only photo I took was of the last bite before it got demolished! I’ll be cooking this one again.

Indian food is brave.  So many spices.  Inspiring...looks delish...

Here's the recipe. Just follow it to a tee.
