I cook almost every day. My family couldn't give a shit if I cooked tomorrow, too, lol. And I prefer to do it.

ago about ways to cook beef tenderloin.

doing it tomorrow.

Mignon

Tomahawk steaks and veggies from Fresh Market. Delicious. I'm about to explode. Holy shit.

Not so with fattier cuts, but I always sous vide tenderloin, dry, salt and pepper, a splash of oil and sear in a cast iron pan. If I didn't have sous vide, I'd sear and then cook in oven or indirect on grill to temp

If you ate 2 Tomahawks by yourself, you deserve to explode

It's Father's Day!

I'm searing in the cast iron and then throwing in the oven. Seems easy and I don't have sous vide.

made a horse radish sauce, some dinner rolls and we will have some kind of vegetables (not my dept)

ribeye and raw clams.

Lame. Burgers...we're going to wife's folks house.

Nah, me, my daughter, mom and stepdad. I could eat one for sure tho.

Making my own burgers using 80/20, will use a couple seasonings, some chopped up bacon, shredded cheddar and throwing some cherry peppers in a couple for myself and my father, Hoffman hot dogs (both German and snappy), smoked corn, 2 racks of baby back ribs, bacon wrapped armadillo eggs and possibly some bacon wrapped asparagus.

Brunch and to my favorite brewery (long live beerworks in providence). Gonna see how long our 5 month old girl can handle being out!

Fire Pit and a few stogies in the evening!

Happy Father's Day! If it's your first, welcome to the club.

First up, I'm throwing a 3 bone plate of short ribs on the smoker. Figuring 8-9 hours at 225, also going to throw on a duck that I split, and partially deboned. I'm thinking 3 -4 hours, then a quick dance on the grill to crisp up the skin. For the grill, I've got three 22 oz. ribeye steaks, and a NY Strip for the wife. Sides are roast red peppers, marinated in evoo & garlic, with Buratta cheese, grilled asparagus, and a gratin of kohlrabi with heavy cream & Parmesan.Keeping to the low carb thing. For drinks, I've got Jack Daniels Barrel Proof, which is an amazing sipper, can't recommend it enough if that's your sort of thing.

If it's nice outside tomorrow, I'll probably grill them. If the weather is shitty, I'll have the wife do it.

Wow, with all that food, you could open a restaurant. And not a bad carb in sight. Impressive. And, you know, you could start the thread yourself, sport :)

LOL

Doing a big old fat picnic. Rough going after the islanders game too late too much bourbon.

I set up everything in my backyard before the game, a monsoon came through and fucked up my setup.

I'm going to have a screwdriver get the picnic on and hopefully sleep. Then pulled pork tacos later then nap, burbon, pulled pork nachos,nap.

Happy Fathers day go Giants

Schweitzer & Sons burgers and hot dogs from the Swiss Pork Store nearby. Some German Potato Salad. Maybe roast some beets. Sit outside and watch the U.S. Open with a cigar and a glass or two of Yellow Spot.

and a little leftover pasta on side. One of my absolute favorites.

This morning we are heading out for big breakfast to one of the kids favorite spots, but assume I will get stuck with check as usual!

Tonight I will be grilling a few beautiful NY Strip steaks and the girls are putting together a nice little Caprese salad and some hashbrowns as a side. Haven't discussed dessert...yet.

And somewhere in there need to read Sunday paper, go for a run and also watch the back nine of the US Open. I am pulling for Xander Shauffele to come up from behind and catch all those major winners in front of him...

of different levels of heat peppers in a skillet with a little butter. Snack on that.

But not cooking much, as the BeezKids are taking me to a brewer for lunch.

with mushroom risotto and fresh picked asparagus

Mu FIL used to sneak off to the men's room after dinner. You might try that one :) Xander's got some talent, who knows?

Sounds like a nice little package, Gidie

I'm making Spagetti and crab sauce
the end

Burgers and Corn on the grill.

Scrapple as an app.

In the smoker. Using a recipe I got on here from Sec103!

Should take about 6 - 7 hours. My neighbor had some ribs he’s smoking’. We’re having dueling smokers.

Going to the brewery in a little while to pick up a growler of their IPA. Special batch they ‘cooked’ up go for Fathers Day weekend.

Problem have to keep an eye to the sky cause just north of us in Ocala there are lots of thunder storms. Will have to pull out the canopy!

Made a little compound butter mix with garlic and thyme to melt on steaks as they rested...it’s always money.

Congrats to Jon Rahm...nice back nine! Glad to see he finally got vaccinated, chucklehead....

Ha! My kids made me chicken parm with fettuccine and a Fruity Pebbles cake.

Cooked just a little beyond what I wanted, but not bad for my first time. Need to pay more attention to temp vs time. My recipe said 30 min for med rare/medium. This is closer to medium well. Couldn't have been easier (even if I cooked to the right tem).

Still delicious and it needed nothing but salt and pepper.

had a ton of it and very little left.

yeah, temp is always a better indicator than time. Too many variables regarding time
