The **Now Eating** Thread

That's pretty ridiculous

I quite enjoyed my 50% chuck 50% brisket mince I got from Littlewoods in Heaton Chapel. I used Aldi brioche buns (also due to laziness) and made a few variations. The only reason I don't do it more often is I hate how much I and the kitchen stink when I fry off the burgers.

Oh, Aldi do brioche buns? Didn't know, I'll have to try them.

But yea, kitchen stench is a major problem. Worst for me is deep frying food, especially chips. I really hate that fryer smell that lingers for days afterwards. Also smoked bacon/fish.

Feeling satisfied.

More coleslaw, this time hoisin and a touch of soured cream.
6 pork steaks in franks hot sauce, hoisin and corn flour
2 mini corn on the cob.

Its a good think I only have one other small meal in the day.

As to burger debate, if you can be bothered, get some beef rib minced in there 25% is good.

Been fancying a burger, so grabbed the new grand with an apple pie and milkshake.

This is by far one of the best burgers I've had from Maccie D's. Really tasty and filling.

I'm not having a takeaway tonight anyway but out of interest I wanted to have a look at what's on there. I have no places that would deliver to me.

Slightly well fired lasagna (could have done with a little more sauce on top). Still tasted good though. A good six portions, so one eaten and the others put into containers for freezing.

Fish and veg.

A very neat looking plate of food. I would prefer a bit more colour on the fish but looks nice

Dinner tonight was mushroom risotto (Porcini and regular button mushrooms) with fried chicken livers. The garnish is dehydrated leeks.



Was delicious. I wish I'd stuck with my original idea of deep frying the leeks though, the dehydrated ones didn't add much to the dish. Overall I'm very pleased though.

I rustled up another pork shoulder this weekend. 10lbs, took around 8.5hrs. Been snacking on it for the past few days.

 

[Wizzfizz]

That looks fantastic

After a bit of a painfully cold and hilly ride we had lunch at Solita in East Didsbury. I ordered the "Big Manc". I'm not sure what I was expecting exactly but the thing was *huge*. I don't normally eat Big Macs and the like but this was really damn tasty.

(Big Manc on the left. I presume a regular Big Mac on the right).

Love Solita. Hear they're opening a pizza place in Prestwich soon too!

Not been able to show my face in the Manchester one since I went with the missus and ended up getting drunk on the deceptively strong 12 dollar shakes. Ordered the naga wings, proudly finished the plate to the amazement of the next table. Went for a victory pee and realised I hadn't washed my hands before handling my tackle and came back to my table limping and in pain. Managed about three bites of my widowmaker before having to tap out and ask for a doggy box. Then on the walk to the taxi the bottom of the box fell out from the sheer weight of the contents and I lost all my delicious food over the pavement. Bad times.
