Just had some myself. Tried a new recipe with hot sauce instead of mustard and use a piece of fried chicken skin.

That sounds amazing, I'll have to give that a shot next time. I have never used fried chicken skin with deviled eggs before but I can see that working well.
For this batch I used mustard and a bit of sriracha along with mayo, white vinegar, paprika, salt and pepper, cilantro, garlic and onion powder and bacon crumbs mixed in with the filling along with a piece of bacon topping each egg. This was my first time actually mixing bacon in with the filling and I'm probably going to be doing that every time now...it made the flavor so much stronger/punchier.

White bean and Pork Jowl stew.
100% out of my comfort zone as far as foods I've ever had. Also 100% delicious.
As a shoutout to @detroitdad 's recent post, all liquid was homemade beef broth.
Rack of pork
Mmmm…gulf oysters.

Homemade broth is so easy to make. I'm making it with mostly garbage. I've converted my son/DIL into making their own broths. It takes soup/rice/ect.... to the next level.

Agreed. I have canned broth in the cupboard in case I run out, but we freeze all turkey and beef bones, and all crab/shrimp shells (separate Ziplocs for each type). When the bag gets full, we empty the fringe of all half-used onions and peppers, and those rubbery celery and carrots you swore you would eat to be healthy. Turkey/Beef/Seafood broths for the cost of water and some heat.
I probably should check the expiration date on that can. It's been there a looooong time.

I also keep canned broth. I try not to use it if I don't have to. When I make my broth I doctor it up a little. Otherwise, it is mostly scraps that I used to throw away. It takes a standard meal from being good, so something exceptional!

Not far off my dinner plans for tonight!

The idea was a light, healthy meal. Mrs Zombie insists that cheese, salami, and crackers aren't a weight loss meal.
Delicious, but not low cholesterol or calorie.

I've been watching Sam the cooking guy on YouTube lately, lots of awesome easy to replicate recipes. Tonight was from his latest munchies episodes... Bacon pancake. Throw a fried egg on there and Wala! Dinner.

Crab cakes in Tejas tonight. One thing I miss greatly from back east is Maryland crab cakes. This is my first attempt at trying to recreate their awesomeness.
Not too bad but always room for improvement.

Vialone nano risotto with saffron, parmesan, peas, and pork tenderloin chunks. A Cameron Hughes white blend from Walla Walla, Washington. Afterward, Grayson Galax, and Appalachian cheeses from Meadow Creek Dairy in Virginia. Not bad. {BURP}

I've tried crab cakes a number of times now, from some renown places in New England. I have to say, I don't get it. I wouldn't take a ribeye, grind it up, and mix it with eggs, onions and bread crumbs and the say it's better.
Baby back ribs & onion casserole - yum

I can completely understand your point MJ but I have to say, if you haven’t tried a crab cake from Maryland, your missing out on some real goodness.
The Maryland style crab cakes have little if no breading at all and are usually just lump meat held together with very little filler and a whole lot of MMM Good Maryland flavor.
My favorite crab cakes are from Pappas. They had a location near my stepdaughters place and we’d literally go every time we visited.
@krafticus, tell em about that delicious Maryland seafood meat loaf.

I have had them in MD. I don't recall where, but it was top rated by Yelp/Trip Advisor. Although I take crowdsourced recommendations lightly, I expect it to be better than it was. I just thought "meh, just give me whole uncracked crab."I can completely understand your point MJ but I have to say, if you haven’t tried a crab cake from Maryland, your missing out on some real goodness.

If I ever make it out to one of Krafty's games or a meet-up in the area, I will definitely check out Pappas.
I went to college in Walla Walla, Washington!

We had our annual Friendsgiving last night. This year we decided to do a supper club/steak house theme.
Started with shrimp cocktail with homemade cocktail sauce.
Then, French onion soup w/ homemade baguette - insanely good. My buddy used bourbon in the broth which was a nice touch.
Followed by a wedge salad with homemade blue cheese dressing, bacon, tomatoes, and fresh dill.
Next, some beautiful NY strips on the Weber (who cares if it’s 20*F - grilling is a year round sport for us), seasoned generously with only salt and pepper, pulled at 125.
Steaks were accompanied by bite sized twice baked potatoes (one version w/ sour cream and chive filling, one version with cheddar and bacon filling), mushrooms in a red wine reduction, and creamed spinach.
Various charcuterie boards and cheese plates were out all night.
Desert was homemade carrot cake w/ cream cheese frosting and a homemade cheesecake with a blueberry compote.
And wine. Lots of wine.
No pics - was busy having too much fun.
