Pot Roast

Tasty. Made with Instant Pot. First time as well, and I would say I would cook it for just a little bit more so it can shred like pulled meat. I probably shouldn’t have used as much beef stock there was quite a bit of extra liquid and it was very runny and not gravy consistency. Maybe I should use red wine instead of beef stock to deglaze the initial sear. Also putting more meat sounds like the way to go. All in all, I’m satisfied with what I did and I’m liking this Instant Pot more and more that … Continue reading Pot Roast

Traveler’s Ale G-Fuel

Here we have some more G-Fuel reviews from yours truly. today we have the Traveler’s Ale inspired by Genshin Impact. It is a cactus lime flavor and I have had the privilege of purchasing a collector’s box. The collector’s box came with a tub of the cactus lime flavor and a nice looking stainless steel shaker with Paimon decorating it. Initially I was wary about tasting it because I don’t know what cactus tastes like, but a friend of mine gave me a bit of perspective by relating it to aloe vera. With that mindset I was all aboard giving … Continue reading Traveler’s Ale G-Fuel

Burg & Saus

Getting back in the groove of using the grill. Probably not the best time to get back into it since it’s Summer and all the randoms are gonna start using it. It’s not that they’re using it, it’s more that THEY DON’T FUCKING CLEAN IT UP. Sure, you can clean it easily yourself but it’s more the courtesy of it. Fuck people. Anyway, burgers and sausages. I’ve always grilled (propane) by putting the heat on high and closing the lid. I found out that is a disastrous idea because I can’t see what’s going on, and the high heat means … Continue reading Burg & Saus

Chicken Dish

I’ve eaten like absolute SHIT the past few days and now I’m back to fixing my diet. No more buying stuff that’s ready to eat. Time to cook and save some dosh while doing so. Chicken wings, drumsticks, and thigh on a pan just to get it going for a bit, then put the pan in the oven at 450F for about 20 minutes. Shit’s good and thankfully there’s no FUCKING SHATTERED BONES. I hate that crap so much and it ruins my appetite just biting into a bone shard. Continue reading Chicken Dish

Random Meat & Cheese Sandwich

Remember those breadsticks I made a while back? Cut them up into kinda sorta bread slices then slapped some swiss cheese, pepperoni, and peppered chicken breast on it. Whenever I get stuff like this (the meat and cheese,) it’s usually from a deli and for some reason I only ever eat them cold. I think that contributes to why I rarely eat them because I prefer hot foods most of the time outside of desserts. It was alright, and it helps on the wallet I suppose.

Cookie Box & Steak

I’ve always considered myself a bit of a contrarian, and I usually like going against the common opinion for things. Remember the whole thing about counterculture? Well when it comes to cooking I was always hesitant about cast iron because it seemed to be THE choice and people would not shut the fuck up about it. You could ask what kind of pan to use and specify that you don’t want to use cast iron only to be met with people who fucking tell you to use a cast iron. Like alright give me the answer I don’t want to … Continue reading Cookie Box & Steak

Mushrooms

I grew up playing Mario games so I thought it would be funny to eat mushrooms so I would be just like Mario. Turns out I didn’t really enjoy the method my parents prepared mushrooms — barely cooking them. In this process, the mushrooms still have a bit of a chew to them, and there’s really no taste to them. My parents circumvented this by frying them with some oyster sauce or anything similar. It wasn’t until I started cooking them myself where I really understood the flavors they could bring. Going from just the taste of normal white button … Continue reading Mushrooms
