Dinner Tonight 01/28/21

Baked barbecue pork loin. I like buying those big, long pork loins, especially when they are on sale. I cut them into slabs and cut a little for stir-fry, stews, and soups, freeze them, and use them a little at a time. Very economical. I pay about $1.49 per pound for these and they go a long way. For this dish I decided to bake them and pour on some barbecue sauce. This time I used Lillie's, which is a bit expensive, but very good. About $5 for a jar of this stuff, but worth every penny, let me tell you. I seasoned them with a little No Salt, pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Browned them a bit on each side. Then poured a little beer into a casserole dish, and set them in there. I have a side of potatoes and carrots cooked in butter and broth. This should be very good, and throughout the cooking process I will add a bit more barbecue sauce. What's landing on your plate tonight? As per the usual, the pic is of the dish before it is done.

@rakski I would think the Philippines would be sauce heaven to some extent. Don't a lot of your dishes use some kind of a sauce?

You know, if I could place bets on what you are eating, and picked grilled cheese, I think I could retire by now. That being said... I NEED to make grilled cheese. It's SOOO good.

@porwest I love meat being grilled. It is best to have some in the house. I think there is some grilling machine that can do it inside the house without charcoal.

@porwest I heard that air fryer grill. I think it is a handy one. I do agree that grilling outside is the best experience.

@Shavkat There probably is. But grilling for me is also about the experience. And outside I don't use charcoal anymore. These days I have a propane gas grill.

A good cut of pork can rival any beef steak I say. One of my dreams is to taste any of a pig roasted over an open fire.

There was a time when I would have disagreed with you. But now? Hell, I just LOVE pork steak, and it has become one of my favorites. I eat a ton of it.

@RebeccasFarm I think it is better than red meat healthwise. But not sure by how much and to what extent.

Thursday's dinner included mashed potatoes, sauteed zucchini and onions, baked chicken thighs, and marinated artichokes. There was some left over so that will be my lunch today. Nothing for dinner. Maybe we will eat a bowl of pelmeni for dinner. That's Russian dumplings. Your dinner sounds yummy. Oh, if only I ate pork...

@porwest Our favorite is Texas Roadhouse. It's the furthest away; so we usually only go there when I have a doctor's appointment close by.

@LindaOHio I don't mind Texas Roadhouse at all, and in fact, have eaten there many more times than Longhorn. Both are close by us though.

My real preference is on the grill outside. But it is too cold right now to get out there and do it.

@ZedSmart Well, I gave up charcoal grills many, many years ago. I use propane now. Easy to fire up, just as good to cook, and easy to shut down. And hardly any mess to deal with.

@porwest Yes, it's always good to have that smokey touch when grilled in charcoal fire. The meat smell good and taste even better I should say.

I got mine at Walmart, and it's not really a local thing. So your Walmart might have some. It's one of the best barbecue sauces I have had in a while.

As I remember, they turned out delicious. I need to get another jar of Lille's soon as I just used up the last of what I had of it the other day—not the same jar as when I wrote this post though. lol

That sounds really tasty. I like to season my own pork loins, rather than buy the pre-seasoned ones.

99.9% of the time any meat I have is unseasoned when I buy it. A place we used to frequent, which was a meat shop in West Allis, right outside of Milwaukee, called Rupena's had such a good "secret seasoning," I often had them season up my meats before wrapping them. It was good eats.
