Cans of chili are good cause you can eat it right out of the can cold or put it next to the flames for a bit if you wana heat it up.

I made a meatloaf once. It was really crumbly, but it tasted great.

I can cook any recipe. You just have to follow directions it's easy

>>37569481
I make really good cubano sandwiches, definitely my best meal.
I also make great meatloaf tacos with jalapeno cooked into the meat and a green chile salsa.

Just about anything as long as I can follow a recipe.

Fried chicken penne
I deep fry chicken then cut it into bite size chunks, boil penne, then put the penne into baking dish followed by tomato sauce, chicken, more penne, more sauce, more chicken then an assload of mozzarella cheese. Then I bake it for 20 (?) Minutes. Can't remember how long but basically until the cheese gets browned.

I'm lazy as fuck and a bachelor so I trend toward one pot dishes. Lately I've been buying pork shoulders (bone in) from the store and letting is braise in a huge stockpot with carrots and onions. Pretty good, if a little fatty, and I get a lot of flavor out of the pork so I dont need to spice it or anything. I can usually eat that for the week, use the leftover stock for soup, and fry up the leftover pork bits into friend rice after im starting to get to the end.

There's a really good book on cooking efficiency, i wish i could remember the name, but it basically focused on taking what ends you had leftover from other meals and extending it into means for future meals, that cooking philosophy has taken me very far as someone who basically never cooked growing up and doesn't have a lot of money.

I made a bowl of oatmeal with honey, strawberries and blueberries.

I make a real good ribeye roast. I'll remove the ribs and pull back the braising cap. Sea salt, peppercorns, minced garlic, rosemary and thyme. Tie the ribs and cap back into place. Give it a nice seer and cook it to medium rare. Slice it thin and I'll finish it with a coat garlic butter with au jus and horseradish on the side. For a side I usually do some grilled asparagus with lemon juice and pepper.

My dad taught me about one of his signature dishes, he called it Mexican Surprise.
Basically just take a pound of ground beef and one of those cheap taco seasoning packets, cook the meat up, then mix it with whatever he can find in the house in a stir fry. Onions, corn, rice, carrot, mushrooms, tomatoes, beans, cheese, ect. The recipe is basically different every time he makes it. Sometimes theres not even chips or tacos to put it in so we just eat it out of a bowl.
I've taken the formula and adapted it to fill other niches. For example I made a stir fry with rice, chicken, eggs, and vegetables and drowned it with soy sauce. This was Asian Surprise. Sausage, sauerkraut, carrots and potatoes was Stalag Surprise.
At least 50% of the times that I actually prepare a dish its a surprise stir fry. The other half meat on the grill or generic breakfast items. If any robot wants to practice frying i highly recommend breakfast items like eggs, hashbrowns and bacon. they are pretty hard to fuck up and even burnt bacon tastes good.
Its basic as hell but this got me through bachelordom this far. Anything else i just read a box.

>>37569481
used to make all kinds of pasta. butternut squash, beets, tomatoes, or just usual spices and cheese, white sauce, i don't care bread crumbs fried in olive oil. pan-fry any meat for protein. green leaf salad on the side.

i used to love making jambalaya. 7 vegetables, shrimp, beef, bacon, sweet potato, fried rice cooked with broth from scratch. right combination of spices and you're all set. takes 3-4 hours of work for a few days. usually it comes out fucking fantastic.

everybody wants to throw shit in all at the same time, the garlic with the onions, the shrimp with the rice, the mushrooms right when you start cooking. you're missing out on prime nutrients.
>>37571007
i had to stop on account of gender dysphoria.

>>37571153
Those are some good looking ribs. Did you get them from your local butcher?

I've only recently (past 4-5 months) evolved into actually using herbs and slicing/mincing my own garlic/onion/ginger/etc. instead of powdered/flakes. I'm only now at the point where I can sorta tell how I can enhance the flavor a certain way with spices and herbs. Still bad at it.


It's fucking surprising how virtually everyone I know isn't capable of this. Even though they eat every day. I could impress 90% of people in their early 20's with some basic meals simply because the meats go through a short marinade and have different spices/herbs applied to the dish. Adding fucking tumeric to rice is impressive to some of them.

You don't need to say "with au jus" it's redundant. It's like saying with with juice

>>37570932
What can be unkosher about salt, Schlomo?

>>37569529
>>37572403
Everybody I know that says this doesn't know shit about cooking and suffers dunning-kruger hard.

Cooking requires minute adjustments all the time because the ingredients you use aren't consistent. You'll have pieces of meat that are a little bigger or smaller than unusual, you'll have one cooktop that works differently than another, you might have better results using a different type of pan, it's being able to adjust recipes to accommodate cheaper/higher quality/in season ingredients, recipes are fucking wrong more often than people that are shit at cooking realise both in terms of meeting your preferences and in terms of just being fundamentally wrong or recipes simply failing to include some steps, stuff like that.

A lot of cooking is outside the kitchen, it's knowing WHERE to get the best & best value ingredients.

Recipes will frequently be made using an electric range or a gas range which have different properties, there's stuff that isn't obvious like people will buy a thin wok to be authentic for their Asian recipes and it literally won't work on their electric cooktop because the wok can't maintain the heat high enough while avoiding the oil smoking due to the lack of power with the range + lack of surface area. This is shit that is not obvious at all, not written down in recipe books, yet if you follow the recipe, you will make this mistake. There's just so many little things like that.

People that say this I write off as shit cooks knowing nothing else simply because I've tried to *perfect* cooking meat, and I mean get them so the inside is barely, barely cooked through but not raw to maximise the juiciness, the outside has a nice sear, while dealing with different sized cuts repeatedly, and people that go "Hurr durr I just follow the recipe" I guarantee you can't get it quite perfect and likely overcook their food or don't get a good sear going.

>>37572507
Kosher salt is called Kosher salt because it's used for koshering.

I can cook this:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6IN_mupBjh8

It's one of the tastiest dishes I've ever tried.

>>37573722
I read cooking magazines too dude. It's an easy as fuck hobby

>>37573722
The best thing I can cook by the way, are perfect well done burgers. I know who sells the best buns in town, I know a butcher that sells me just the right meat, I know just the right weight of meat to put in each patty not quite a 1/3rd pounder not quite a 1/4 pounder, I use the right tools, to allow me to smash the burger down onto a cast iron pan (not a grill!), get those patties wider than the bun and fairly thin, they shrink up to the right size that every bite you have has burger, I top with fresh ground pepper and some salt, I use kraft singles (seriously, I believe in the product, and I have a lot of experience with good cheese), toast those fuckin buns, and I top er off with a good number of fresh local veggies, some bacon I cooked up ahead of time, and some sauce.

Currently I'm doing a variation with sriracha mayo + ghost pepper bacon.

If I'm trying to impress a girl I use prosciutto wrapped chicken breasts, taking care to select relatively thin breasts and batter the hell out of them, but I'm actually better at making burgers.

>>37573836
You are completely fucking wrong and you can spend forever just perfecting recipes just a little bit more and getting your technique down just right.

>>37573878
What I can do at this point though, is I can get those fuckers cooked all the way through in the middle, just barely, just barely, but have a nice char on the outside every time.

I've got the technique down pat, so much so I've gotten bored of making 'em, but I can make a good burger. Presuming you don't want it pink in the middle.

Haven't seriously tried making good grill burgers because I only have access to a gas grill and a pan just outperforms a gas grill so much. Gas grill just drains off the grease, gives you a dry burger, doesn't add anything to it.

>>37570238
