What's cookin' boys?

[Fordtech86]

Well done.

I can’t take credit though, all I did was stop and pick it up . Crawfish is one thing I don’t mess with cooking. Not because I can’t, just cause it’s more hassle then it’s worth for just us.

(Us is me and my little girl )

Foolish question for you crawfish guys. .

The sweet corn in the boil; is that in season down there now or is it from frozen?

Doesn’t really matter, as it looks so great! Just curiosity.

I don’t travel much. I don’t know where you guys are in growing season(s), except what I see with Ford’s great garden.

It’s frozen from where I get the crawfish, live crawfish sold in 30 pound sacks around here, too much hassle for me to deal with to make myself, I get 5-10 pounds cooked for me and my girl. I just planted corn last weekend, but it’s underwater now I’m always way late because my ground doesn’t drain well.

Frozen corn. Live Crawfish here are now $3.50 per lb. which is still 100 bucks for a sack but I ain't cooking them either.

Shrimp are much more economical to eat, but they ain't crawfish.

Couple weeks ago they was 2.79 a pound around here.

The place down the road from me

edit, it’s still 2x the price as what I know as typical (magic been here longer)

 

[Magicman]

Those are very good prices.

They are $5 per lb boiled here. A 3lb platter with corn and potato, $20. The 5lb platter is $34.

This shellfish extravaganza featuring dungeness and snow crab legs, shrimp, corn, and potatoes is $59 so yes, pricey.

Wow- looks great.

Ford - sorry to hear garden underwater. I know you put a lot into it. Corn is just starting to get planted up here. Saw first planter yesterday.

 

[RCW]

This is how to buy EVOO. 10 liters or 2.6 gallons. I think she said it was $40.

Reubens…..

Like crawfish, corned beef’s usually reproduce a lot just before and after Saint Patrick’s Day…..get them when they’re young…..

PS - I know where corned beef comes from. Don’t need to correct me. Just making a joke.

I didn’t cook it but had tacos at White Duck Tacos in Asheville. The pork belly in the taco was the size of half a VHS tape

Curried beef with some curry marinated peppers and onions.

One of the Mrs favorites on Mother’s Day.

Finish everything off with some homemade strawberry rhubarb pie.
