      Farro, tomatoes, mozzarella, basil, kalamata olives, red onion.

      Dressing is olive oil, balsamic, and red wine vinegar, honey.

      Thank you for your attention to this matter.

        Recipe is here but I cut out some of the fussiness after the first time. I make the farro straight w/o adding the aromatics, and I omit the parsley if I don’t already have it on hand. You do want the basil though.

            I had to do some research to find out what farro is.

            Isn’t that basically unprocessed wheat? Can one eat that “raw”?

              I don’t know, I assumed it was a different grain.

              It wouldn’t occur to me to eat it raw, any more than rice.

                    Brats, pressure cooked in beer before going onto the grill.

                    Some fries.

                        The brisket is coming along well. A little slower than I expected, but dinner at 10 works, too...

                          Went to the supermarket this morning and saw that they had some great looking choice porterhouses at the meat counter for 13/lb. Got 2, had one just now. Delicious.

                                We're going to have BLTs tomorrow - I pre-cooked a batch of bacon this afternoon (oven method) - 9 slices took about 30 minutes with zero work.

                                  We visited BIL and SIL in Indy today. Lovely to go somewhere different, see someone different, beautiful day. Had Portillo's delivered. Yum.

                                    Portillo's Italian beef is among the best. However, there are several in the Chicago area that are as good, or better, depending on your taste.

                                    Another thing that Portillo's does really well is the chopped salad. Their burger is surprisingly good too - a real "char-broiled" taste.

                                      Had a burger today - really good and very charbroiled taste! Would have had an Italian beef but had one of those last week, although not nearly as good. But I had no sides so I also got a Chicago dog.

                                      Good eating.

                                      George, do you by any chance know what a beefstroll is? That's the name of the food truck I ate at this week. Adena's Beefstroll. They specialize in Chacago grub.
