Deftones2015 Posted March 29, 2019 Author Share Posted March 29, 2019 I used to make them all of the time, before I started working 3rd shift. I used to sell them too lol. It got so popular I had to stop because I was making probably 30 lbs a weekend and had people I didn't know asking for some. My favorite is the one I called Greek sausage. It had chicken thighs for the meat, grilled bell peppers, spinach, feta cheese and various spices. It was the most popular as well. I also made a few different bratwursts, Irish Sausage, african style sausage made with beef, Moroccan sausages that were sweeter, spicier sausages, a few breakfast sausages. I used to process people's deer too and make summer sausage and various deer sausages and jerky. The wife and a few buddies have been on me to make some lately. My buddies even offer to buy all the stuff lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But what my family like the best that I make is breakfast burritos. The one thing I haven’t made some, but will someday, is cool a huge lobster on the griddle. Popcorn on the griddle is the Fams’ second fav. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Posted March 30, 2019 Share Posted March 30, 2019 In general? Lobster/ seafood is my favorite. Frog legs, turtle ect filling that. My favorite meat by far is elk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deftones2015 Posted March 30, 2019 Author Share Posted March 30, 2019 I love game meat. I used to gig for frogs and set snapping turtle traps every year. I've never had popcorn on a griddle. Last year in South Carolina I had a soft shell crab sandwich. That was amazing. Joe 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deftones2015 Posted April 1, 2019 Author Share Posted April 1, 2019 So how do you cook popcorn on a griddle? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joe Posted April 1, 2019 Share Posted April 1, 2019 10 hours ago, Deftones2015 said: So how do you cook popcorn on a griddle? A little oil, popcorn, put a melting dome over it. When it starts popping, keep it moving. If you want a Carmel corn, add some raw sugar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Biecacka Posted April 19, 2019 Share Posted April 19, 2019 I hated the 100+ hour work weeks. 7 days a row for months on end. It was killing me. I was miserable. But I learned from a classic French chef who was world renowned and holds every golf medal imaginable in the cooking arena. It was an honor to learn from that man! But after he left and I went elsewhere it just wasn’t the same. Corey euphylin me 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ach6175 Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 I went to culinary school and worked in several nice restaurants, and then ran a small family type one a friend owned where I was the GM. Got tired of dealing with all the bs from employees, suppliers etc and working 90+ hours a week and not having a single day off for almost four years so I left the industry. Still like to cook, bake especially. I've started making it a sort of tradition I cook breakfast on Sunday mornings, varies every week, might be omlettes one week, specialty pancakes another, once in a while I go crazy and make a huge spread.
