@Kruse and now I want to go to Uruguay
Edit: I think I'm in love
I engineered a boys trip to BA in Sep-18 with 7 old Uni mates to watch the AB's play. One of guys had to pull out, having previously organised for us to catch up with a mate of his, an Argentinean who he used to work with in Canada, who was back living in B.A. again.
We assumed the catch up was off, but the guy insisted we still come to his family home for lunch, even though onne of us had ever met him.
In addition to some fine wine and a post-meal spliff, this was the feast he served us.
Fucking legend!
Is that half a cow on the left?!?!

I am going to try @canefan recipe for KFC tonight.
It better be good.
So easy to build tension when you are known as a serial killer, and yes I am using chicken.
Did you wet brine the chicken?

I would love to do something like that. Being at someones house, all the better.
Trivial question but what is the little can on the left there for?

Not 100%, but think that was collecting fat dripping down the line

Oh absolutely that is what is it doing, I thought it was all on a grill but upon closer inspection, that is a hot plate, no?

Yep. A nice Bostocks bird. Been thinking about it since you posted.
Makes a huge difference to the moistness

I did steak last night and made a béarnaise sauce. We had a bit too much to drink and only realised after dinner that I forgot to serve the sauce! Luckily there was an extra steak so having today for lunch. With the sauce
My usual forget thing is a chopped parsley finish. So many times after eating I notice a sad pile of dried up parsley on the chopping board. Trumped though by Mrs Cato ‘s crab tarts at a dinner party. Pastry baked blind, reduced tomato sauce base for the pastry, egg and cream filling for the crab. All done. After the first mouthful “not very crabby is it?” “Fuck” she exclaimed.

Good luck mate, show photos later!! Just keep good temperature control of the oil, and keep dredging right up until you drop them in to get a nice dry outer

Just blitzed my vindaloo marinade and threw in two habaneros along with the 6 dried chilli varieties! Gonna be warm!!!
Small change as this was going to be a beef vindaloo with rough cuts (Shin, cheek, neck etc) but I checked the freezer and we are all out.
Caught up with my butcher mate and he has given me a shoulder of lamb to do this with instead.
I had a small spoonful of the marinade as it smelt too much like cinnamon but tastes amazing and the cinnamon is dulled by the vinegar and chillies so it is much better balanced on the taste than the smell.
Fuggin hot too. Good hot.

I'm not a millennial so not in the habit of taking photos of food and ate it instead. Will try and remember next time, and there will be a next time. Might add a bit of chilli powder or cayenne to go for a hot wings type thing.
It was really good though and very close to the Colonel's. I even made chips and slaw to go with it.
So, home made pizzas in the Bakerstone next for my "I can't get takeaways" binge.
Favourite topping combo suggestions welcome.
