Harvest ladies:

Vegan mom
2 cocktail ladies
Upon entering kitchen stadium I discovered that Vegan Mom was also cooking sage brown butter...
Ok we're about an hour and some change out. Mr.A is actually cooking a northern thai stew as the glaze over the elk medallions. It's quite good and really packs a punch! I have toasted my hazelnuts, squeezed lemons, and microplaned some nice pecorino romano. Onsite at the harvest off (not...
Alright y'all - it's been awhile since Mr.Ammo and I have done a cook-off. Tonight friends are hosting a "wild harvest"-off where there will be 3 meat competitors (myself, Mr.Ammo, another hunter-friend) and a handful of "harvest" competitors (ie vegetables?!).
