What's for dinner?

[BadGirl]

It's Thing1's 30th birthday today - so we did La Tolteca - his favorite! With fried ice cream and everything!

Happy birthday to Thing 1!

Yesterday I tried my hand at Fideo Loco and it turned out fabulous, so we had leftovers for dinner tonight.

@vraiblonde, a friend who is originally from Texas has talked about a dish called Texas Twinkies: brisket stuffed in a bacon wrapped jalapeno with cream cheese. Ever had it? Picture is via Hutchins BBQ McKinney.

They're a BBQ joint staple in TX, so I've had them many times. Each place calls them something different - at Porky's Pit here in SPI they call them "Rock Stars" and I've also seen them called Texas Torpedoes and Armadillo Eggs.

I've also seen an app called Texas Twinkie that was a cornbread roll stuffed with jalapeno, cheese, and brisket, then deep fried. It was pretty amazing.

They look like little armadillos.

You've had my Atomic Buffalo Turds - it's the same thing, just add brisket.

Trimmed up some steaks for the Grill tomorrow evening and used the trimmings to make Szechuan tonight.

Also, managed to use my new boning knife to do some trimming of my hand between the thumb and forefinger.

Monello grilled steaks and we're having them with cheesy rice and leftover grilled asparagus.

 

[Bonehead]

Big bowl of rice and veggies.

Grilled chicken, twice-baked potatoes, steamed asparagus, peaches.

And a lovely Moscato.

Went to 1936 in Chesapeake Beach...fantastic dinner, a bit pricey, but during the spring/summer/fall will probably be my go-to place.

Last time I was over that way it was Rod and Reel.

Rod-n-Reel restaurant is still there, i think..This place is part of the 2nd and 3rd floors of the new parking garage they built in the Rod-n-Reel parking lot. Nice place

I picked up a nice little piece of sirloin to cook over charcoal tonight.
