simple, but delicious. Even my daughter asked for more asparagus. But I caught on when I realised she was only eating the bacon!

Beef bacon though, innit?

Having been brought up the good stuff, I can't even bring myself to touch that rubbish.

I had a Muslim friend of a friend who tried proper bacon when she was in Europe. Suffice to say, she has never looked back since.

Some things just can't be replicated and pork bacon is one of them.

That one is.

I did two versions. One with prosciutto, one with beef. My missus, who took the pic chose beef bacon. I totally agree it's not the same.

It's demoralising at times when you're in a Muslim country, isn't it? Being in a nice hotel and going down for breakfast and you see it...and then you remember!

We had 2 weeks in a lovely place when we got here - with a wonderful spread in the morning - and not once did I touch the bacon.

Man can not live on steak alone...






...so this evening I had Short Ribs sous vide and oh my god it was fucking good:



#StillLivingThatBachelorLife

Oocha fckr!

Experiment underway.



One half, salt no pepper and olive oil.

Other half, in pineapple purée.

Good to go soon.

Nice meat feast Dirk!


Pork Chop tonight, medium.....

Jayuss, Mary and Jospeh….

Conclusion:

It was already a quality cut, no need for the pineapple to tenderise. It certainly did though.

It might be a better idea to try it again with a shit cut.

Or an excuse to eat more steak? But that looked quality.

And at those prices, no excuse for buying shit cuts in the first place.

Did a nice Tikka Masala tonight. Very tasty...

That's the first time I've seen you post a curry Snubbles!

Did you make it yourself or was it a 2 mins in the microwave job.

Either way, I feel a curry night coming on ...

You wankers have something right with the curries.

The rice is from scratch but not the simmer sauce that came out of a jar. But I so enjoyed it that I plan on doing a scratch made job in the future to try and outdo Hal.

Haha

Mine turned out pretty good last night, but I overdid the cinnamon a bit.

PAG used to be the undisputed curry king, but the title is up for grabs now he's no longer around!

Is he done and dusted, or just MIA? I hope he is still alive and kicking.

The last thing you want to over do.

I think Dirk contacted him, he's OK just taking a break.

That's fighting talk!

We need some 80's rock music while we regroup our spices in the kitchen for the Great TD curry off!

How did you do the rice, Snubs?

Tonight, blue marlin that had been marinated, along with green beans and spinach sautéed using bacon grease.

7 Eleven curry and white bread.

Great plates, Topper.

Good to see you're getting your greens.

They were better than the fish to be honest. I don't really care for marlin. We're going to switch back to mackerel for our white fish.
