Some Odds And Ends – Two Meals And The RV

Bev had picked up a stuffed beef roast on a whim the other day and we decided to have it for our Friday card group. 

I’ve cooked these in the past and the cheese always ran out so I first browned it in a skillet.

Then, I set the open smaller end on a pan bottom, propped it to sit vertical, and topped it with the cheese that ran out into the browning pan.

Unfortunately, the cheese still mostly ran out.

Forgot the platted pic but it was still pretty good, but not to be bought again.

The RV

Remember this pic.

This is what it looks like now.  No it's not about the snow it's about the coach now sitting at the new owners place and we are out of the RVing business.

Shrimp And Grits

Bev has been wanting grits for breakfast and I opted to make enough to have shrimp and grits for supper while son, Rhett, was visiting and to ensure leftovers.  I used House Autry Stone Ground grits and cooked them using the recipe below. 

Cheesy Grits

Ingredients:

4 cups grits

8 cups whole milk

7 cups shrimp stock

1 tbsp. salt

2 tsp. coarsely ground black pepper

2 tbsp. garlic powder

24 oz. shredded cheddar

2 sticks butter unsalted

1 cup white wine

For the sauce, I used the same recipe as previously but I used shrimp stock from the freezer.

The Verdict

It’s hard to beat shrimp and grits, but I would have liked using larger shrimp rather than the smaller ones that I used and while very good, Bev
