Tonight we decided to go with chicken sausage, which we've been eating alot of recently. I guess really anything chicken. Grilled some corn from the co-op in the husk. Sauteed the okra whole on the grill with a sweet banana peppersliced up, both from the garden in olive oil, soy, spicy vinegar and char broil seasoning, as well as grilled the sausage. The spicy vinegar and banana pepper added a nice little tang to the okra, which really goes well with soy I've found. I like to eat them whole. Grab the stem and bite off the whole thing. I drizzled what was left of the soy/olive oil over the okra and peppers. I used a some french bread as a bun for mine with some spicy mustard. They tasted good together, but the bread being so tough made it kinda hard to eat.
Delicious Fri night dinner with a couple beers and some refreshing summertime peach/strawberry cocktails Yorke made as we cooked. Rum was the liqua' of choice.
This party has before and after pics.
Open faced bbq sando using the pulled pork from yesterday and a toasted piece of whole grain. I made a bbq sauce using shallots, garlic, apple cider vinegar, red wine vinegar, brown sugar, worcester, ketchup and some spices that went great with the pork. Mac n' Chee provided by Kraft (it's delicious and you know it) and sauteed a bunch of spinach in garlic and olive oil. 4.3 Noms!
Some things can not be shared. Like this new pulled pork recipe. No lie, this turned out simply incredible. I don't think we've ever had a more tender, more juicy, more flavorful sando of pulled pork ever. Served with a vidalia onion bbq sauce on a toasted ciabatta roll. Green beans from the Slatten garden and mac n' chee on the side. Good LAWD!
Broiled salmon and dill with NomGrits (grits with sweet white corn, jalapeno, vidalia onion, and cheddar cheese), balsamic roasted asparagus and steamed broccoli. 4 Noms.
NomGrits simmering pre-cheese. The onion, jalapeno and corn were all sauteed and cooked down prior to adding the grits.
Great cut of salmon prior to being broiled.

We marinated a skirt steak in a worcester, soy sauce, orange juice, garlic, red pepper flakes and lime juice and seared it on the grill medium-rare. Sliced it up for tacos with a mix of peppers and onion cooked in the grill pan on high heat, home-made Nommerstein guacamole, spanish rice with black frijoles, and grilled corn on the cob rubbed with salt, pepper and olive oil. 4 Nom fiesta.jpg)
