Brined fish? I wonder whose artichoke recipe that was? LOL

 

[JEK]

You need to try that brined fish . . .

 

[amyb]

An OREO. I am getting ready to review a book

 

[MIke R]

nothing worth talking about


I hate holiday weekends....too much like work

I have to keep reminding myself that my reward is next week I will be at Still River

My swordfish was on the grill for 4 minutes and was perfect. I hate to fix what ain't broken. I will be brining my thick pork chops tonight tho.

 

[JEK]

Not intuitive, but we would never consider going back to the old way. Indescribably moist and plump.

 

[MIke R]

so is fresh off the boat....

 

[andynap]

I am on my fish guys email list for day boat fish and the swordfish was that. It could not have been fresher. 4 hot grill minutes and done.- splash of lemon.

 

[JEK]

2 minutes a side?

 

[andynap]

2 minutes a side?

Yes- 2 minutes per side. I oiled the swordfish, salt/pepper and a very hot grill.

 

[MIke R]

2 minutes is plenty if the source is hot....the vast majority of fish is overcooked

 

[MIke R]

I begged to get out the shops early....and managed to get people to work for me.... but I was told by the boss dinner had better be really good as a trade off..

so I did a sauce of shitake mushrooms, crimini mushrooms, oyster mushrooms, spring peas, shallots, garlic, Chardonnay, veggie broth, and mascarpone .....blended and reduced it all and finished cooking some rigatoni in it.....

marinated and grilled a London Broil medium rare, and sliced it thin over the pasta....baked up some semolina garlic bread to go with it.. a salad

voila!

Wendi got up early today and whipped together a homemade Key Lime pie..so dessert was already done

 

[andynap]

Looking good. I am about to put my brined pork chops on the grill. Phyl will do roasted asparagus and the sweet potato is almost done. Lettuce from the garden. Pinor Noir goes nice with pork.

 

[MIke R]

sounds good..Lena and I already ate...Wendi eats at 9...I think she will approve

 

[andynap]

Send down a piece of that Key Lime pie

 

[Grey]

Ditto.

 

[MIke R]

yeah it was real good!

with St Barts Blend and Baileys

That all looked really good, Mike. We will dine on wood grilled lobster, cooked by someone else, and then go see the Foreverly Brothers.
