I wasnt going to post anymore, but I just made a recipe I hadnt used in years...mainly because I forgot where I put it.

This recipe comes from a woman that married a relative of mine. She was a chef in a restaurant. It took a considerable amount of talking before she shared this recipe. It is for, IMHO, a truly great meatloaf.

Avis’ Meatloaf

Mix
1 16oz. Can Tomato Paste
½ C. Brown Sugar
½ C. Vinegar
2 Tsp. Mustard

Set aside.

Mix
2 lbs. Ground beef
2 finely chopped Celery Stalks
2 finely chopped Med. Onions
1 C. Cracker crumbs
1 Tsp. Salt
2 Eggs
½ Tsp. Pepper
½ Tsp. Oregano

Mix together beef, vegetables, crumbs, eggs, and seasonings. Add one half of tomato mixture to meat mix. When thoroughly mixed, place in baking pan, and form into loaf. Bake at 350°F for 1½ hours. Pour remaining tomato mixture onto loaf, turn off oven, and leave in oven until oven cools. Serve while warm. Makes 4-6 servings.

That sounds good also Will.

Gregorio's Hemingway Fish Stew

I pieced together this recipe after reading Mary Welsh's (Ernest Hemingway's wife) biography where she mentioned a fish stew served up by Hemingway's Cuban first mate (Gregorio) of his boat Pilar. I had to guess on the proportions and I took liberty with a couple of ingredients but for the most part it is the same ingredients mentioned in the book "How it Was" by Mary Welsh Hemingway.

I've only done one test of this recipe but it turned out good enough and I think it is pretty much done.

2 pounds whitefish filets, (cod, snapper, halibut) lightly salted and cut into large (approx 1-inch) pieces.
2 tablespoons olive oil.
1 medium onion, chopped.
1 red bell pepper, diced.
6 medium cloves garlic, diced fine.
1 can diced tomato.
1 large fresh tomato seeded and chopped.
1 roasted red pepper, diced fine.
2 whole bay leafs.
1 tablespoon fresh oregano, finely chopped (or substitute 1 teaspoon dried and crumbled).
2 tablespoons capers
12 Kalamata olives, pitted, diced fine.
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup of dry sherry (white wine will do).

4 cups of cooked white rice.

In a large saucepan slowly saute the onion, fresh red bell pepper and garlic in the olive oil until transparent and semi-soft being careful not to burn. If it starts to brown turn down the heat. When ready, add the can of diced tomato, chopped fresh tomato, roasted red pepper, bay leafs and oregano and simmer stirring occasionally.

After 30 minutes simmering add the capers, diced olives, black pepper and sherry. After simmering and stirring occasionally for another 15 minutes or so, turn down the heat to a low simmer, turn the mixture one more time and carefully add the fish, pushing the fish into the mixture. Do NOT stir. The idea here is to poach the fish in the liquid without breaking it up into little pieces. Make sure you do not boil the fish and maintain a low simmer.

After adding the fish wait 7 minutes and then turn the mixture carefully once, trying not to break up the fish pieces and push any fish pieces sticking above the level of the broth back into the liquid. Wait 7 more minutes and the fish should be done, open one of the larger pieces to check for doneness.

Serve over a cup of the white rice.

Man I woke up hungry this morning... anyway here's a food warning for you all...

A Doctor was addressing a large audience in Tampa.

”The material we put into our stomachs is enough to have killed most of us sitting here, years ago. Red meat is awful. Soft drinks corrode your stomach lining. Chinese food is loaded with MSG. High fat diets can be disastrous, and none of us realizes the long-term harm caused by the germs in our drinking water. But there is one thing that is the most dangerous of all and we all have, or will, eat it. Can anyone here tell me what food it is that causes the most grief and suffering for years after eating it?”

After several seconds of quiet, a 75-year-old man in the front row raised his hand, and softly said, "Wedding Cake."

 Nemesis,

I see you and I were thinking the same thing when we saw this thread.

This is the chili recipe that I normally use.  Quite different than a normal chili, but it tastes amazing.

3 onions, chopped
6 garlic cloves, minced
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
3 round steaks, cubed (1 kg total)
1/3 cup chili powder
2 tablespoons sweet paprika
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground allspice
1 teaspoon dried orégano, crumbled
1/2 teaspoon cayenne
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/4 teaspoon ground mace
1 bay leaf
3 cups water
a 16-ounce can tomato sauce
2 tablespoons red wine vinegar
2 tablespoons molasses

- Cook onions and garlic in oil, until Onions are soft.
- Add beef and cook until no longer pink.
- Add chili powder, paprika, cumin, coriander, allspice, oragano, cayenne, cinnamon, cloves, and mace.  Cook for one minutes while stirring.
- Add water, tomato sauce, red wine vinegar, molasses and bay leaf.  Let simmer uncovered for two hours.
- Remove bay leaf, salt and pepper to taste, and serve.

We normally serve it over rice, with some fresh buns as well.  Taste-wise it comes out both sweet and hot, and is really nice.  I normally avoid putting cloves in, or reduce the amount, as they have a rather strong taste.  Brown sugar can also be used in place of molasses.

Father Ted's Chili

2 lbs. course ground beef(ask your butcher if they don't normally offer it)
2 lbs. soup/stew beef(cubed beef)
2 cans kidney beans(I'm not from Texas, so sue me )
3 cloves garlic(diced)
1 large yellow onion(diced)
2 cans 8 oz. tomato sauce
1 can 16 oz. Rotel tomato and chilis(drain liquid or the chili will be too acidic and tart)
1 bag of Carroll Shelby's chili seasoning(it comes with chili powder, salt, cayenne, and even Mesa flower if you like it thick) If this stuff isn't available in your hometown, try ordering it online, or move. It's that good!
(optional) 1 lb crawfish tails with fat.

1. Brown beef and drain
2. Add onion, garlic, tomato sauce, Rotel, and Carroll Shelby's goodies then simmer for 45 minutes
3. Add kidney beans, simmer for another 45 minutes
4. (optional, add crawfish tails and fat, cook for another 10 minutes)

Serve with sour cream and cheddar. Fritos or crackers are optional.

Saw this and thought IT fit pretty good for a gaming community that has a cooking thread.

[AlienLXIX]

Well OK the real thing is that Ferret (Steve) has a 3 qrt slowcooker

in his room but is kinda limited on recipes and space.  Also this has to be stuff that he can cook either over night or within a few hours since a slow cooker with a removeable base is considered an open hot plate.  I guess hot plates are a big no no in barracks?  And he has to hide his in his locker!  LOL

Thanks guys YOU ROCK!
