What's For Dinner?

Nickyboy said:
A brewery around the corner from us is open for drinks on Fridays and often brings in food trucks. Today they had a sausage truck which has won multiple awards. They make the sausages themselves and all the toppings, with a local bakery making their brioche buns, which they butter and grill before loading up.

My wife had the "Reuben Dog", which is a veal, pork, and corned beef dog topped with locally made sauerkraut, Swiss, and crema. I had the "My Dog Would Love That", which was a spicy pork hot dog (about the size of a bratwurst) topped with apple-strawberry-ginger marmalade, spicy peanut sauce, and crumbled bacon. Un.be.fucking.leavably delicious. My wife had an IPA with hers, and I drank a Vanilla Bourbon Stout with mine. So, so , so tasty.

And it was on the ride home that my wife asked me if I enjoyed my hot dog with peanut butter and jelly. Dagnabit! She was right. :p

Pizza Margherita with a fermented dough that's been going since Monday morning. Should be nice and tangy and chewy.
 
Mrs. Nickyboy is having a procedure tomorrow and is not allowed to eat all day today. So that means one thing here......SEAFOOD FEAST!!!!
I am going to make spaghetti with a seafood tomato sauce (ai fruti di mare) with tuna, clams, squid, and plenty of spicy red pepper flakes. :nickyboy::nickyboy::nickyboy:
 
The new market had lobsters for $4.99/lb. That's insane. So I bought two small ones, cooked them up, picked them, and made lobster salad. I am going to have a lobster roll for dinner along with some corn on the cob. Summer ain't over yet!
 
We found out about a local Polish restaurant that has take out. When I went to pick up our food at 3pm the parking lot was packed. Good sign!!
We are cooking up some of their potato and cheese pierogis and their house-made fresh kielbasa, with out left-over red cabbage on the side. It smells so, so good here right now. We also got a big loaf of Polish rye bread and some stuffed cabbage rolls for breakfast tomorrow.

Check out their menu!:

Indian butter chicken with steamed basmati rice. Time to go out into the "hurricane" to pick some fresh cilantro to shred over the top. Woo hoo!

We pretty much had this the other night. Wasn't a fan. LOVE kielbasa though.

That's interesting, because my hips seem to be disappearing as I get older. I'm almost ready for old-man pants hiked past my navel.

Good for you! Let me know how that works out for you.

:cheer:<-- how I look with my pants hiked up past my navel, and with a touch of the jaundice
 
A recipe from my Grandmother from the 1920s: Speck und Bohnen. Which means, chunk bacon browned, then simmer with onion, garlic, and Savory with Broad Beans and broth. Cook until tender and then add cooked potatoes at the end.

Poverty food. Always tasty.
