Curry ground lamb is a thing, though. Look up a recipe for keema curry.

Dadgum that looks good and I've already ate.

It is definitely good that all my vegetarian friends have me eating more vegetables than I used to, but I need just ONE close bud who wants to come over and eat my big pot of korean shredded pork.

I have done that before--made my own turkey at home after Thanksgiving due to lack of leftovers.

Our Thanksgiving was pretty small this year. Did a turkey breast and just a few sides. There has since been turkey pot pie and turkey minestrone, plus the usual sandwiches and whatnot. Just about kicked at this point. I have a recipe for braised turkey legs that I am debating doing next weekend, but the rest of the family is probably turkeyed out at this point.

I'd be happy to be that bud. But I think your veggie friends are right. This morning I thought Rick and Morty was speaking directly to me. "Morty 1: We all have our thing, he's rolled up sleeves Morty, you're fat Morty." "Fat Morty: I thought I was left handed Morty." "Lizard Morty: Then you should use your left hand to eat more vegetables."

I think I am the master of stretching a bird. This last turkey I cooked became sandwiches, tacos (2 ways), enchiladas, fried rice, chili, spaghetti, Ploughman's lunch, turkey salad, salad with turkey, omolete, doggie treats.

My new thing with the GF is burrito nights. Beans, roasted veggies (onions peppers and zucchini usually), yellow rice and salsa. Very good easy meal.

I miss that korean pork though. Damn, that was one of the most satisfying things I've ever made.

[AugustWest]

That looks amazing.

This recipe is really good. Next time I might vary the mushrooms-- a blend might make it better than just baby bellas. My GF took the leftovers for lunch so now I'm thinking about making another batch just for lunches.

TIL: people have personal deli slicers. I would never have imagined that anyone would have one at home.

[Carlos del Vaca]

I now know TWO people who have them.

If I had a freezer packed like that, I'd be too busy worrying about a power failure to think about how to cut up meat.

I'm reading a great book about home fermentation. I foresee some really nice pickles once cucumbers are in season. And kimchi. Probably not sauerkraut, although if I am using cabbage for kimchi maybe I can make a small jar of sauerkraut?

And maybe... home made ginger ale. I'm looking into it and it seems really simple and delicious. The book has a good tip to make sure it doesn't overcarbonate and fill you with shards of glass-- put 90% into glass bottles and the remaining 10% in an old soda bottle. That way you can feel how pressurized the soda bottle is getting and take Measures if it gets too wild.

The author also talks a lot about making goat's milk yogurt, which seems like an interesting option for our goatherd. I might go for cajeta though.

there's a proverb in the making here... something about, to a man with a deli slicer everything looks like deli meat?

Love me some lamb burgers.
