Just had a "carnitas burrito" which was bland and bleh. Think 'Qdoba'. Oh for a decent taco truck here in the UK.

3, 1 lb loin chops, seasoned and browned crispy in lard and then covered with onions, apples, kraut and some cream then baked for 40 minutes. Served with cheesy grits with chicken stock, cream and wild mushroom blend....just perfect!!!

I don't know what it is but pork chops baked with onions produces a hard to describe flavor...I just love it man. Texas Pete or similar(vinegary) hot sauce goes hand in hand with it too.

Anyway you cut it....pork, onions, apple, kraut, pineapple, vinegar, hot-sauce, etc......they all just come together for 1 thing. A party in our mouths!!!!!!

I was fortunate enough to just finish a meal at the chefs table at Next. It was amazing overall with some real standouts too. One of my favorites was this bone marrow and salsify custard served as a sort of pre dessert. Balanced so perfect between sweet savory and salty I could've eaten 12 of these. Serious Eats Chicago had a write up back in Jan here.

Going to be a doctored up Bear Creek Potato Soup, actually quite a bit doctored up

Not that Bear Creek isn't darned good, I just can't leave stuff alone and have to clean out the fridge

2C flour, 1Tbs baking powder, 1tsp salt, 2eggs, 1cup buttermilk. Mix everything together and spoon onto the chicken mixture bring to a simmer, cover and cook 10 or so minutes. Despite how they may look, they're very light.

ETA: I think I got the recipe off food network quite a few yrs ago. Not sure who's since I have it memorized now.
