I made a trip to Sam’s Club and bought meat for New Year’s Eve dinner and New Year’s Day good luck meal. I bought pork back ribs for using in my homemade kraut and 4 nice beef tenderloin steaks, 1 ½ inch thick for New Year’s Eve. I also got two nice all natural pork tenderloins for later.
Nice weather here in Ohio, in the 40’s today and tomorrow but Sunday evening we get back to winter and in the 20’s awhile. I wanted to smoke the ribs so I will take advantage of the warmer weather tomorrow to do them. On New Year’s Day they will go in a Crockpot with onions, the kraut, beer, seasoning and some Bavarian style spaetzel. I might add in some smoked brats too.
I will do the beef tenderloin steaks for New Year’s Eve dinner with baked potatoes and some sautéed shrimp for surf and turf a side salad and some good bread.
I hope all of you have some great food for celebrating the New Year!
