Title: A couple of recent cooks
Post by: RG on December 26, 2020, 06:13:06 PM

For Christmas Eve, Stephanie cooked a prime rib she got at Publix and honestly, it was not THAT good of one. Nevertheless, it was prime rib and that's still good :) We should've cooked it on the pellet grill but it was a nasty day here on Christmas Eve so the oven got the nod.

Tonight, we had some comfort food. Our son made tomato soup that had cream, leaks, garlic, a touch of bacon, vegetable broth and basil. It is STELLAR! Paired well with Tillamook Cheddar grilled cheese on Texas Toast, that's for sure!

I know that I haven't been taking "good" pictures lately, more of just a point and shoot approach lately but I will say that the soup and sammich were good photo worthy! LOL

Sorry, but I'm not a big prime rib fan. You could just give me an extra grilled cheese or two and everything else along with a nice chunk of butter for the mashed potatoes and I'd be very happy.
I didn't get pictures of our Christmas dinner which was fillets done on the Blackstone, griddled baby potatoes, shrimp and eggplant dressing, candied yams, mac & cheese and homemade Parker House rolls. Desserts included a cranberry & brie brad pudding w/white chocolate sauce.

Yeah, I'm with you on the prime rib. Not my favorite cut of beef.

I will take a king cut of the prime and a grilled cheese sammie and a bowl of that soupy goodness  :thumbup:

I could flip a coin and be very happy with either of those great looking dishes.

Simple Christmas dinner with just the four of us (covid safe) in our sunroom.

Lamb, oven cooked potatoes, Steamed green beans, Dinner rolls, mint jelly, & fresh cranberry sauce, Cranberry water & cheese cake for dessert,
