What are you cooking right now?

[Patrick]

I picked up some pork belly at Costco. I’ve never made it before. I don’t have a smoker.

Any good recipes? I’m open to anything. I googled it, but there are 9 million options, looking to take out the trial and error.

Sliced or a slab? Skin on?

Sliced or a slab? Skin on?

Sliced, no skin.
somewhere around 5 or 6 pounds. 10-12” strips, maybe 1” thick, 1.5” tall. Around that.

This is Chinese pork crack for me, one of ten foods I'd order if I were on death row

Shanghai-Style Braised Pork Belly (Hong Shao Rou)

Shanghai-Style Braised Pork Belly (hong shao rou, 红烧肉) is a very famous dish in China. Everyone knows hong shao rou (red cooked pork) is a Shanghai favorite

I slow cooked it for 5 hours, cubed it, coated it with something sweet, then high heat to make a little candy out of the sugars.

You’re getting better advice than I could offer, be sure and post up!

Scenes from Super Day:
Pickled jalapeños, nachos, chili

Really wanted to try these. Cut the sugar trying to retain the heat, but fresh out of the pot, they didn’t have much kick.
Great flavor and snap, maybe the heat will ramp up in the jar.


With some fresh quick pickled jalapeños.





Also with a probably unhealthy amount of pickled jalapeños.

Not sure if I made it right. It’s ok, nothing special. And it took forever. The juice wasn’t worth the squeeze on this round.

Here’s a few from the past week (courtesy NY Times of course)

Made this cabbage stew. Kind of like Stuffed Cabbage in stew form. Super easy.

Nice. The adds are brutal on recipes sites!

Not really cooking...

Homemade peanut butter!

I usually buy Justin's Peanut Butter. No sugar added. It's up to $8/jar...

Got lightly salted dry roasted peanuts for $2.29.

Seems good so far...

Must resist going to the refrigerator and pulling out the jar to stick a tsp in it.
