Dinner time

Guess it’s getting too cold in Denver to be grilling. Sounds like a nice alternative. Seedy cooked our filets med rare and lobsters on the BS. The butter crust was perfect on the steak. We decided that if Thanksgiving is going to be so different then we would do surf and turf.




Son made cheddar biscuits and pumpkin pie
Daughter made the mac&cheese




Didn’t have horseradish so I made cocktail sauce with spicy ketchup and siracha. It was good!

 

Looks delicious. Tried to talk my wife into something like this last year when we were unable to travel like normal because of being a few weeks from our due date. I wanted to do a low country or something. Shot it down in a heartbeat and we had to do a Turkey for two.

Then you have my 8 year old that only eats pancakes at Thanksgiving as it’s something my mother in law started with him when he was two. She makes him fresh pancakes to go along with the rest of the spread and it’s their little tradition.

 

Thanks
I love the pancake tradition! Something they will always share.
My FIL always started thanksgiving and Christmas morning cooking with two fingers of Old Grandad bourbon “for medicinal purposes.” Probably more because he had 8 kids. He passed two years ago but on our zoom call this morning several raised a toast to him with a shot of bourbon.

 

That looks amazing!

 

Thanks @CDGator it was a lot of work for a couple spoon fulls.

 

It is a lot of effort but your kids will remember it one day. I miss my mom’s cooking.

 

We had a family Thanksgiving at Lake Seminole. All the traditional foods...







There were 15 of us and we set up to eat outside under the sheltered area. Thanksgiving is all about the family.

 

“Y’all come on in...we’ve got plenty!”

 

Deviled eggs should be served weekly.

 

We find it pairs well with poultry and fish. A distinct bouquet, but not overpowering.

 

Good God Gertie What a Gash!!!!

 

I keyed in on the plate of sliced tomatoes, reminds me of visiting my grandparents. Every meal seemed to have half of it picked from the garden a few hours before we ate and we’d always have a plate of sliced tomatoes that were fantastic.

 

Made Caesar dressing from scratch a few days ago, so decided to make themed Caesar Salads the last few evenings.

Deconstructed Cuban Sandwich Caesar Salad with Cuban Bread Croutons (those croutons )


Grilled Italian Sausage and Onions Caesar Salad with Italian Herb Bread Croutons


Grassfed Filet Mignon Caesar with French Bread Croutons and 2016 Arrowood Sonoma Valley Cabernet Sauvignon

 

Really surprised to see you went with McCormick’s Montreal Steak seasoning. That thing just need fresh ground salt & pepper.

 

True story..but I like the garlic factor of the Montreal
