I'll take an Irish coffee.

Heavy on the Irish and light on the....what the hell, just gimme a glass of whiskey.

Large Laphroaig?

Hey, buddy.

Have a Slippery Nipple on the house.

Bowl of Texas Chilli?

Yes to both!   I am off my keto diet and that's a great way to plunge back into the world of tasty foods!  Side of Serrano Peppers if you please.

I think if you sauteed the onions in butter first to carmelise them, you would be really happy with the result.   Also, maybe a tsp of fresh ginger in with the onions and 1 clove of garlic minced instead of the powder.   JMVHO.  I like your recipe. 

I will try those tricks next time because I am definitely going to make these again, the recipe worked very well. Soaked for 14 hours and cooked at low in a slow cooker for 12 hours. Maybe next time I'll use a tiny bit less paprika. The unsweetened ketchup I used was Primal Kitchen, and I think that is what I am going to buy from now on because it is great.

Anyway I have tons of beans now and will probably have to freeze some but that is okay; Batchelors are waay too expensive now at $6/can at the local store!

I may do a special - American Goulash?  For our friends over the Pond.

Any takers?

What's that when it's at home? So many different goulash variations and so many different locations over the Pond.

I remember eating that at an American truck stop maybe in Kansas or somewhere in South Dakota, it was a long time ago and I went to a lot of places then, but they didn't call it goulash. I knew that dish as the 'Chef's Special'.

"While the mixture of ground beef, macaroni, and tomato sauce seems simple enough, thousands of users responded with a slew of different names. Beefaroni, goulash, slumgullion, Johnny Marzetti, American Chop Suey—the list goes on. But how did this casserole come about, and why can nobody agree on its name?"

The Internet Is Divided On What To Call This Classic Dish

Thank you. Behold, I have made this. It is dinner; it is good:



I followed the recipe, except I used tamari instead of soy sauce.

Love the bowl.

Love the bowl.

 

That mortar and pestle looks just like mine, which I don't use anymore, because I bought a small chopper which does the job in no time.
