MENU -- Pats @ Bills Sunday December 22nd -- NEW ENGLAND PATRIOTS -- What's on Your Plate?

[HIT BY SPIKES]

Typically I am making New England Clam Chowder, Lobster Rolls and Baked Beans however Christmas Eve is 2 days after the game and I am making the Italian Tradition of the Feast of Seven Fishes.

 

As such, I really don't have the refrigerator space, appetite or will to cook a big meal for this game.

 

While procuring a huge capon for the wife's cooking of Christmas Dinner, I found a 3+ lb 1 & 1/2" thick beef steak with the short rib attached at a great price so I threw into an acid based marinate this morning and put it in the back of the fridge.

 

I am still working my way through all that pizza from the Detroit game so I will grill that steak and eat it with a Caesar Salad in stomach prep for Tuesday and Wednesday's huge meals.

 

The 3 dogs will appreciate the bones as well.

This weekend we are in NYC so watching the game at Pennsylvania 6 (first time going), the Bills bar. Wings and beers probably. They do have a lobster roll.
 

Anyone been there?
 

BTW Detroit pizza with pepperoni and pickled jalapeños was great. Thanks for the recipe!

[PonyBoy]

Traditional this week, Pepperoni, Mushroom, onion pizza with air fried Chicken Strips with Hot/ BBQ dipping sauce. 

 

Christmas Eve... skipping my yearly Lasagna dish, going with Manicotti stuffed with Spinach, Basil and Italian Parsley, meatballs and sausage sides.

Anti pasta platter with Sopressata, artichoke hearts, variety of sharp cheeses, pepperoni, pepperoncini & shrimp cocktail.

 

Merry Christmas Spikes! 

 

I like your thread, shows The Buffalo Bills not only have great fans, but great cooks too! 😀

Nice. I love Manicotti.

All of you guys talking about Italian, I may go pasta with the wife.  As far as the earlier post, I had Seven Course Seafood pasta for 22 years with the first wife.  Her family is staunch NYC Italians.  I actually came to like it.  Since we’re doing g the traditional roast etc. on Xmas, pasta makes sense.

As an aside, how did that Detroit pizza turn out, and did you end up making that white one?

The picky kid I made the simple pizza with strained tomatoes and a ton of cheese pizza sheet loved it.

 

The two other tomato base ones I made are heavy Mother Pluckers and I am still eating them.  The wife stole some for her Staff Christmas Party.  That pissed me off.

 

I made the white one with that Sweet Onion Cream Mushroom Sauce I already had but added two bulbs of fried in butter garlic bulbs to it before food processing it again.  Then I added the White Maitake Mushrooms, Fresh Purple Onions, Fresh Basil Leaves, Smoked Salmon Cream Cheese and thinly sliced Norwegian Smoked Salmon to it.

 

It was most excellent!!!

Parents are in from TN for the holidays and this is the only game I’ll get to watch with my dad until I con him into coming up for my Super Bowl party (😉) so we’re going old school and getting pizza and wings.

That recipe for the crust is interesting.

 

A 48 -72 hour cold proof.

 

Two separate high temp par-bakes.

 

Then you put the ingredients on.

I would NOT even feed that crap to my 3 dogs.

I got really into making clam chowder a while back and started with Jasper White’s recipe, the most classic and simple one. It’s just a great dish, and totally American.

 

But if you really wanna go back, there’s a recipe in the novel Moby Dick. I made it once and it was like a very buttery, salty and rich clam stew. Delicious but very heavy.

Boston creme donuts for breakfast, some fatt Lobster rolls for lunch and topping off dinner with homemade New England clam chowder with a case of Sam Adams brewskis. Lord have mercy on my toilet bowl Monday morning.

That is why they are made out of tough porcelain -- American Standard.

We have a few extra guys joining us at the tailgate than usual so keeping it simple and going with Burgers and Sausages

Got a BIG crockpot full of Jamaican Tripe & Beans cooking overnight to get me to Sunday's game in this snowy and then freezing weather.

[HIT BY SPIKES]

Nasty weather outside.

Someone should really point me to how to post photos here.  I post photos of these meals on another site because it is simple.

 

Put the Jamaican Tripe & Beans in my biggest sealed container I own to back of the fridge this morning when it cooled down from the crockpot heat.  Can't really eat that 2 consecutive days if you want to stay married.

 

Gave that beautiful Beef Rib Steak with Short Ribs I have been marinating a flip.  Smells great.

 

Not sure what I am going to do with it for game time tomorrow.  The initial plan was to grill them on the Natural Gas Grill that is under the roof off the kitchen on the raised patio however this morning it is 3F and it is going to -10F overnight.

 

Thinking of cast iron fajitas instead.
