    Here it's Beef Wellington, green beans with almonds and smoked blue cheese.

    Later it's a fire, a little dark chocolate and some cognac. No cigars allowed in the house.

      I would really reduce those mushrooms longer than 5 minutes… Also, deconstruct the Wellington…

          I did. Any time a pro chef tells you something takes x minutes, double it. At least. But I'm doing the classic construction. I've done it before.

            I threw a piece of hog on the pit this morning. Trying a combination of pin oak and green mayhaw.

                Never heard of mayhaw. Maybe called mayapple up here? or pawpaw?

                    Y'know, there are hazards to cooking with wine. Especially when it goes in you AND the food. I didn't turn the Wellington seam side down.

                    Oh well. I looked in the oven and it looks fine.

                    I have made worse blunders.

                      Air Fryer chicken breasts tonight.

                      Came out pretty good.

                                      Can you eat hawthorn fruit? Mayhaw fruit is used for cobblers, syrup, wine and most importantly, jelly. $8-$10/gallon is the going price for the fruit.
