A good steak definitely would be nice.
Not having any here, I'll have to make
do with something else.
I was contemplating taking out some
ground beef to thaw and making a pot
of spaghetaroni for this evening and
tomorrow. Or some chicken noodle
soup with some chicken and vegetables
I have

I have written before about rice hot dish.
While Instant Rice makes it quicker, I have found it to be truly worth the cost, for flavor , to get some genuine hand-harvested Wild Rice, and IF you have a foo-foo grocery in range,  if you happen to take a road trip, a bag of uncommon/exotic mixed red, black, yellow and white rice.
One bag goes a long way.

I fry up the hamburger with what ever seasoning I choose at that moment, including just black pepper and salt, to a point where it is close to be fried too hard, drain oil off and set it aside while I cook the rice.
Mix the rice, soup and the meat together and let it simmer for a while.
I have made a Tex-Mex version several times, as well as a Curry Version.
I use Chicken, Beefy Mushroom, Celery or what ever Cream-of soup I have or desire to add to the rice and hamburger.

I have made it using canned chicken, beef, pork etc..
 Keep it in a cool place in a tightly sealed container and it lasts a long time, depending on how much one eats.
Perfect meal for one guy.

Made a version of dirty rice and me and son have been eating on it for a few days, onions, garlic, hamburger, sausage, red pepper, bell pepper, salt, black pepper, chili powder, cumin then 1/4 cup flour 2 cups broth then folded in cooked rice and canned red beans. That’s one spicy meat a ball...

Cooked up a Box of Wick Fowler's 2-Alarm Chili last night.
I had pre-seasoned near fat free hamburger in the fridge that was aging so I thought time to make one of those boxed chilis that 30 years ago I made real often.

Do not see many of the boxed chilis around here any more; used t be 4-5 different brands in stores decades back.
When cooked I thought it looked rather soupy, so I added a can of Yellowstone Chili (made by Vietti) and a can of Hormel Chili both with beans.
The three combined together came out pretty good but 2-Alarm, maybe at a kindergarten school, had barely enough bite to be called chilli.

Made a nice bolognese with oxtail sauce for lasagna, half the tray was gone before I bellied up to the table. Heard some burps, compliments to the chef...

Banquet Fried Chicken -- box does not say how many pieces are there so I discovered there are only 4, Two Legs and Two Breasts.

[Mule 11]

Sweet potatoes and beer battered fish in a convection oven and cold beer. Ahhh

[wtxbadger]

Fairly basic tonight, beef jerky and an adult beverage. Been on an antibiotic that doesn't play real well with the stomach and eating fairly basic until I get used to taking it again. A couple of days and everything will even out and I plan on enjoying a decent steak and salad again.

Flat Iron steak and hash brown potatoes.

Bought the steak last summer, seasoned well and sealed in a bag in the freezer.
Took it out, let it come to room temperature.

Uncovered the smoker grill just as Heavy rain hit, I am glad I had not lit the fire  yet.
Quit raining for a bit, loaded the grill with corn cobs, Lilac wood and pieces of what was once wooden lawn chair.
Put in 9 Fat Wood pieces, doused with alcohol and set it on fire.

Took about 20 minutes before it was burnt down to coals, and placed the steak on the very hot grill; let first side cook for about 8 or so minutes and turned it over, it was looking good.
Cooked the other side for approx. 7 minutes on a dying fire.
OF course, when it was done, it had started to pour again.

Took in inside and cut it in slices, it was a very juicy medium to medium well.
Fried some flour tortillas in a pan, added a slice or two of lettuce and pigged out.

Flat Iron steak is do nice and tender and easy to cook, gotta get some more.
UUUUMMMMM GOOD, nice an tender and full of flavor.

Cheeseburger’s, potato salad, egg salad, pure beef hotdogs, jalapeno cheddar sausages, buffalo chicken pizza, German chocolate cake and ice cream. Probably missed something.

Last evening grilled up the last three steak made out of a Rib Roast bought approx. 6 years ago.
Cooked them over Spirea and Viburnum wood.
I love chewing the meat off of a nice  beef rib almost more than the steak itself.

 . . Cooked them over Spirea and Viburnum wood. . .

Aren't those flowers  ? ?

[Ranger99]

Had some hamburger meat and hotdogs
left over from previous forays, so stoked up
a fire and made up some patties and dogs.
Dogs will have to wait for supper. Burgers
and a few pickles pretty much filled me up.

Dang wind laid down after the sun got up,
and didn't even puff in the least until I
got my fire going, then it got to around 15mph
and I had to babysit until it got coaled over.
Of course, there's nothing now at all

Bushes whose branches get from an inch to over 3 inches in diameter.
