How about some kind of shrimp salad, served cold with pre-sliced crusty store bought crostini or baquettes.

Not my recipe below but might give you some ideas.

I would serve it cold in a bowl and let people load their own toasts to keep them crisp. Make it the day before and just put the bowl out with a bowl full of toasts.

Scale up accordingly:

1 lb cooked peeled shrimp, chopped
4 oz cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup mayo
1 tbsp Creole mustard
1 tsp Worcestershire
1 to 2 tsp hot sauce
1 tbsp lemon juice
2 tbsp very finely minced celery
2 tbsp green onion
1 tbsp parsley
1/2 tsp Cajun seasoning, then adjust
Black pepper
Small pinch cayenne if you want more heat
Baguette slices, toasted crisp

Mix everything except the bread and chill.

Spoon onto the crostini shortly before serving.
I get these thick pork chops for about $12-14 each. Better than any cut of beef that I can get for a comparable price unless I run across a nice looking chuck-eye.

And honestly better than a lot of the more expensive steak cuts.

Glad I watched the whole video this time. When I've seen it before, I stopped watching when I saw Jiffy mix. (Not a fan. I prefer my cornbread to not be sweet)

But this recipe leans into the sweet with the pepper jelly and syrup. Think I'll give it a try one day.

steam them, 13 minutes then an immediate ice water bath. Perfect every time


Of all the methods I've tried, this gives me the best outcomes by far.

That looks great. Have you ever heard it called buckboard bacon?

chicharrón & caprese salad

I add enough seasoning in the water to account for the ice I dump in the pot when the shrimp are done. Let soak in the same pot for 15-20 minutes.

Dump shrimp in boiling seasoned water and cook them for about 2 minutes unless they are huge. I don't care if it comes back to a boil. They are cooking enough when the water is between 190 or so and boiling.

Immediately dump ice in the pot and let them soak.
Never tried this but what if you made some drop dumplings like the ones in chicken and dumplings. You could fancy them up with some chopped shrimp or crawfish and green onions.
Hard to pick one. Blackberry & Tomato are at the top for me.

Some leftover pasta with fresh picked chanterelles a friend gave me. Served with some buttered and toasted sourdough and sardines.

Yes well done.

Red Clay Hounds though. Can't remember what he called the Longhorns.

Perfection!

I love them too. Hard for me to stop eating them once I start.

My dad used to fry many pounds of shelled peanuts in the fall to give to customers at Christmas. Nice and salty.
Blue bag, dump fish in ice water, bread and fry.
I'm probably an outlier but I never reheat boiled crawfish. I love them cold. Love them hot too.

True. And you can grate or food processor the onions where these is no texture to deal with. I would use half the amount in that case

Other things I add - pork shank, sausage, parsley, dash of fish sauce

Ain't nothing wrong with that. Says summer to me.

Breakfast for supper, Mexican style. Al Pastor & eggs on tostadas.

I do enjoy them though during the season when they are done over headphones. They are more relaxed, last longer and usually cover some interesting things. The coaches don't seem to mind at all.
