That's similar to my "mexican cornbread" recipe but with Chilli. So yeah, should be total winnage!

The pulled pork sammies were pretty great last night. Way better than pulled pork that we were making in the crock pot. I also added some slaw which was great for adding some crunch. I think we are having them again tonight since they were so good AND we are so broke we can't afford dinner anyway.

For Jake: swiped it from a site, but heard good things regardless. There are a few off-shoots with more substance to them (e.g. the inclusion of bell peppers and the like), but basically follow the link, use black beans in place of the kidney beans (as they suck...for realz) and enjoy.

I followed a commenter's suggestion (the IMVINTAGE dude) to use vegetable broth in place of the water (water...wtf?) and mixed the beans and taters together anyway. It turned out well, and apparently they reheat even better. To kick it up a notch, I threw some Tapatio on 'em after they came outta the oven.

Have that pulled pork marinating right now. Also, got some ribs marinating as well. Got lucky on the pork rub. Found a rub at the store with the exact same ingredients as the rub she makes.

[Abraham Smashington]

Sweet. I recommend leaving the rub on a bit longer, and cooking it for at least an hour or more longer than it says.

[BillyG]

Well it's going to marinate over night.

I'm making ropa... but I bought a fucking insane huge pork roast, instead of a beef roast. I also dropped a shitload of cilantro in the crock pot, and the smell is nothing but pure, unrefined win.

I found a lovely fish at the market today, so...

Baked Red Snapper in a Salt Crust

INGREDIENTS:
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup cornmeal
1 1/4 cups coarse salt
1 tablespoon fresh rosemary leaves
2 large egg whites
2-pound whole red snapper (with head and tail intact)
1/4 cup olive oil
2 shallots, minced
1/2 cup dry white wine
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 medium tomato, peeled, seeded, and chopped
1 tablespoon minced fresh flat-leaf parsley
salt and pepper to taste

DIRECTIONS:
1. Preheat oven to 375°F.

2. Whisk together the flour, cornmeal, coarse salt, and rosemary in a large bowl. Add the egg whites and 1/2 cup of water, and stir with a wooden spoon until combined well. Add additional water (approximately 1/4 cup) until a stiff dough is formed. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to a size just large enough to enclose the fish and transfer the dough to a baking sheet.

3. Wrap the fish completely in the dough, pressing the edges together to seal them, and bake for 25 minutes.

4. While the fish is baking, heat 3 tablespoons of the olive oil in a small saucepan over moderately low heat, add the shallots, and cook stirring, for 2 minutes, or until slightly softened. Add the wine and garlic, and boil the mixture until the liquid is reduced by half. Stir in the tomato and parsley, and simmer for 3 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and whisk in the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.

5. Using a sharp knife, make a slit in the crust across the fish and just below the head. Then, make a long slit that goes along the center of the fish from that first cut straight down to the tail (you will now have a long T-cut on the upper side of the crust). Peel the crust away from the fish. Fillet the fish, divide it evenly between 2 plates, and spoon the sauce over and around the fish.

You sir, are a mad man.

[Shit Dickface]

That sounds fucking stellar. I have so much catching up to do, cooking-wise, but I've been sticking to baked chicken breasts/thighs and ground turkey breast with rice and veggies and beans and shit just because it's fast and I can get in and out of our disaster-area of a kitchen and holy god I can't wait until they're done moving in fuck

[Howard]

Fish. Bleh. Think my dad is going to bump off one of the turkeys this weekend. Free range turkey anyone?

[BillyG]

Holy shit my ribs are done and that pulled pork is VERY close but I snuck in a bite fuck me.
