Dinner /ck/?

Pulled pork from pork shoulder slow cooked for 10 hours. Yum.

Avacado and a little hot sauce.

What'd you guys eat?

[Anonymous No.5088518]

Give me your pulled pork recipe.

>avocado by itself

[Anonymous No.5088525]

>>5088517
I love it by itself.
>>5088518
I know, oops.
And I do it in the crock pot in this shitty weather.
It's incredibly easy. I get about a 5-7lb pork shoulder, put it in a crockpot with lots of salt and pepper and a little garlic, and like 1/3 cup of water. Turn it on high for a couple hours then reduce to low and cook for another 6-8 hours. Once it's all tender like butter, take it out and shred, drain the fat/water in the crock pot, put the pork back in and add homemade or your favorite bbq sauce. Keep on low and let stew in the bbq sauce for another hour or so.

So simple, so incredible.

been eating this for past 3 dinners
>ain't even mad
for those who don't know what it is, it's a Vietnamese crepe called banh xeo and it's filled with pork, shrimp, and beansprouts eaten with fish sauce

[Anonymous No.5088528]

>>5088524
Looks like shrimp/sprout omelette?

Huh...

[Anonymous No.5088538]

>>5088525
You at least sprinkle the 'cado with sal?

[Anonymous No.5088539]

>>5088525
times like these I wish I could commit to buying a crock pot. Do you recon a rice cooker could be used instead?

>>5088528
Not exactly. There's no eggs, instead the batter is made from some sort of flour (got it in a premade bag), coconut milk, and beer.

[Anonymous No.5088540]

>>5088524
I love those.

[Anonymous No.5088543]

>>5088528
welp I'm fucking retarded, read the first 2 sentences.
>>5088538
Nope!
>>5088539
I think my crockpot may be my most used appliance. It's worth it. I make tons of delicious, hearty meals.
And I've only steamed veggies in my rice cooker, I am not sure how a large slab of pork would do.
You could also stick the pork in a 250F oven for 8 hours, with some water in a dish in the bottom rack, it would give you really crispy skin but you just have to keep an eye on it.

And that sounds really tasty. I'm gonna check that out.

[Anonymous No.5088554]

>>5088539
Slow cooker and rice cooker are two different things.

Fuck, never buy a rice cooker unless you literally intend on eating rice with every meal and want some throughout the whole day. Otherwise it would be like buying a pasta cooker when you make noodles every few days.

[Anonymous No.5088565]

>>5088554
I would have to disagree, having a rice cooker is awesome. You can keep the rice warm for hours and hours with no quality decrease, and you don't have to look at it twice. It's literally easier than boiling water.

And mine was 40 bucks, for something I use a couple times a week, yes, it's worth it.

[Anonymous No.5088572]

>>5088554
I'm Asian, so yes, I use the rice cooker almost everyday. Just thought I could get away with using rice cooker as a slow cooker. Guess it doesn't work that way.

Big ass spinach salad with balsamic vinaigrette that I made from scratch.

Topped with fresh tomato, cucumber, carrots, green pepper, onions, pan fried chicken breast (seasoned with fresh cracked salt/pepper and blair's death rain nitro), olives, almonds, and paremsan cheese.

[Anonymous No.5088604]

I had a giant ass salad with red onion and italian dressing and homemade croutons for lunch and it was fantastic.

[Anonymous No.5088606]

>>5088604
Nice, i love a good salad. I just started on this one, it's pretty tasty.

[Anonymous No.5088618]

>>5088606
Yeah that really does sound fucking awesome. I would leave out almonds though cause I hate those fuckers.

What did you use in your vinaigrette?

[Anonymous No.5088623]

>>5088618
balsamic vinegar, extra virgin olive oil, salt, pepper, and a large diced clove of garlic

[Anonymous No.5088626]

>>5088623
So nothing out of the ordinary! I'll have to try making that, I've never actually made one from scratch.

[Anonymous No.5088629]

>>5088618
I originally got the almonds with something else in mind (a different kind of salad) so I just said fuck it and threw them in. I like them though, so it's ok for me.

[Anonymous No.5088628]

had two slices of left over papa johns, some leftover hot dog macaroni cassarole with a dinner roll, a mixed fruit cup and a package of little debby snack cakes

Nuts are the one thing I haven't seemed to outgrow my childhood hatred for. I like pistachios...

sigh

What brand of oil did you use?

[Anonymous No.5088632]

>>5088626
It's pretty damn easy and tastes great.

Oh shit, I used brown sugar too, forgot about that.

[Anonymous No.5088651]

>>5088630
Just some Safeway Select Extra V. The balsamic was a lot better.

[Anonymous No.5088664]

>>5088651
Interesting! I have been trying to branch into higher quality oils but I still usually just use Bertolli, lol

I have a great world foods section I'll have to scope out the options for balsamic there.

You rock anon

[Anonymous No.5088677]

>>5088664
Yea, I plan on getting better oil tomorrow since I am now out of olive oil. My friend bought both of these when we cooked here once and just left them. The balsamic can get pretty expensive though..I guess the oil can too heh.

Thanks, good luck!

It really is pretty easy. Pour vinegar in bowl, add salt/pepper, add garlic, add brown sugar (I used light cause it's what I had, but you can use dark and it might actually be better), stir it all up.

Next add the oil and stir while you're adding it or just put it in something that seals and shake the shit out of it right before pouring it on.

nigga, one should eat avocados for the taste, but for the nutrition.
for me, i eat a lot of avocados in my diet for all the potassium and if helps you bust fatter nuts.

[EZ M8 !H1lTt2ac4o No.5088731]

>>5088724
yeah nigga. all that sodium levels in the pork gets balanced out by the potassium from avocados

[Anonymous No.5091222]

>>5088677
I'm trying this out. Never seen it/heard of it before but I'm no expert on olive oil. It's local though, so I figured I'd give it a shot.

Also bought some star extra v since it was on sale for 5 bucks and it will be more for cooking stuff in a pan rather than making salad dressings/sauces.

No money for food for a couple of days.
So some psuedo-vindaloo curry with what little I have around.
