Now that we're into a couple weeks of Corvfefe what have you been creating in the kitchen?

Tandoori chicken kebabs. Mrs jbj made awesome naans.

I'm attempting fried chicken tomorrow (was going to do it today, but didn't account for the fact that my recipe calls for two different 6-hour soaks, first in brine and then in buttermilk.

Interesting, let us know how it turns out doing that.
 
It's from a cookbook I trust. If it bombs, I'm going through your recipe next.

It makes sense doesn't it - get the brine flavour in then let the buttermilk do it's job.

I'm interested to see if you notice a difference in the flavour or texture of the chicken.

If you're going to do mine you'll need to stock up on single malt whisky- preferably an Islay. :grin:

I just got a brand new Samsung slide in range so I am excited to get cooking. It has voice control so it's a bit ridiculous but it was on sale and well yeah.
I can preheat it on the way home from work. That sounds super safe right?
 
Masala fish fry

Was good but I've been drinking hard from breakfast on account of the football and this really didn't do much to suck up the booze :grin:

Haven’t done a pork butt in a while! Started this one before I went to bed last night, and it still isn’t quite ready.

This is Carolina-style bbq, but it is so easy and tasty. Also whipped up a vinegar bbq sauce to go with it.

After giving the meat a good rest, it’s time to don the bear claws and do the pullin’. Making bear and caveman sounds during this process is encouraged.

Last night made crawfish etouffee for the first time. It is a similar process to gumbo - start off with a roux, add the holy trinity, etc. Very tasty, and a crowd-pleaser. Will add to the repertoire.
