In my December food storage thread, a bunch of folks expressed an interest in continuing with a group thread. This will be a place to discuss cooking from food storage, share menus, post recipes, and whatever else we get ourselves into
Wow!! I am impressed!
Do you like biscuits & gravy? You should totally make that with the sausage.I did it! The inventory is done. And DH helped : ) Good thing we did the inventory, I did find some meat that needs to be eaten now and discovered that 1/2 my freezer is taken up with bursting gallon bags of whizzed up tomatoes. We also have much less ground beef than I thought. And need to stock up on more butter!
1 chicken
3 ground beef
4 ground elk
1 ground pork
5 pork sausage (breakfast style which we never eat)
3 italian sausage
1 linguica
2 brats
3 ham bones
1 pork butt roast
2 pork roasts
1 1/2 # bacon
1 london broil
1 beef fillets
1 ball tip
5 rib eyes
2 porterhouse
1 rabbit
1 chuck roast
5 pork steaks
1 chicken thighs
2 cod fillet
11 lbs ground beef for dog food
10 lbs brown rice
2 lbs yeast
2 gallons chicken stock
2 quarts chicken stock
2 quarts tomato sauce
7 pints pesto
2 packages ravioli's
Chanterelles
2 containers of mystery meals
Spinach, pea pods and green beans
2 gallons of peaches and strawberries
and 10 gallon bags of tomatoes!
I'm not going to list all the bread and pizza dough or lunch size bags of rice....
Overall, a bunch of stuff needs to be used up and I didn't think there was really all that much in there.
For this week I'm thawing a chicken, a pork roast and 2 ribeyes. Leftovers will fill in the other nights.
And I must tackle tomatoes!
Oh my, my family begs for biscuits & gravy. You should do make it!Do you know, I have never eaten biscuits and gravy! I'm from an old New England family and we ate fish and boiled dinners with an occasional roast or chicken thrown in. Oh, and lots of soup. In the summer it was all about seafood and the huge vegetable garden. The only sausage we had was "bangers and mash".
And I've never made biscuits or dumplings.....but I am up for learning how!
Ummm. What is bangers and mash? Sounds like a punk rock band.Do you know, I have never eaten biscuits and gravy!
