    Well um they were made from what was left in the fridge and pantry before the next shopping trip. Mexican seasoning in the mince, cheese (no tomatoes or anything to make a salsa) but had some lettuce (yes i know lettuce shouldn't be cooked but hear me out) slammed in the press and they hit the right spot. My wife and I love our Mexican style food, normally make a Pico de gallo (salsa) so rach dressing it was

    Some may say a venison one pot stew is for mid winter.... I say any time of the year. In-laws are down and my father in-law cant forget the time I did one a stew in the same cast iron dutch oven up a cold back country river a few years back, he loves it (unfortunately eaten at home tonight)

    Not yet dinner, but it'll take a bit of eating.

    Have you been helping XR500 solve a problem?
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    It's in the freezer now.

    When the time comes for cooking it will be jointed and sautéed in the roasting dish with olive oil, onion, garlic, celery and diced carrots before deglazing with red wine and dropping a couple of cans of diced tomatoes in and cooking until the meat falls off the bones.
    The meat is removed and put aside, the veges get pureed and mixed back with the meat before it all gets served on parpadele pasta.

    Then you can put your salt and pepper on.

    But not too much or the chef might think you haven't cooked correctly, and shouting/stabbing will follow.

    Forgot the stock and bay leaf.

    Years ago I had dinner with a British General, who's wife was a German.

    She served up a Roe loin, and when I reached for the salt skewered me with a look and asked - in a tone that lowered the room temperature at least 25 degrees, "do you think that I have not seasoned the food correctly?"

    Can't remember what I said - but it must have been sufficient, for I survived the night and spent a very nice day stalking on Aldershot the next day.

    I fully agree with her.
    It pisses me off when people get served food and they don't taste it, but instantly reach for the S&P.
    Taste it and then add salt, all ok with me.

    My grandfather used to pour a heap of salt on the side of his plate, then dip each mouthful into it! I love my salt too... but not to that extent yet...!

    My granddad does this too. And then dips it in hot English mustard.
