Vener -or- weiner?

What did you have for dinner?

Probably wasn't wienerschnitzel

That will be all.

Choppy Chop Chop challenge

We decided recently to spice up the dinner rotation. We've looked at salads, fishes, chicken dishes, frittatas, sausages, and Pork Chops. We made three chop recipes and evaluated for adding them to the dinner list. 

Here we go!

The challengers:

Mojo Chops by Guy Fieri

Nice and spicy. probably the best of the bunch. Crisped up nicely and the sauce went well. 

Smothered Chops by Boom!

Eh. That's all. Eh.

Spinach Stuffed chops by big head Giada

Eh, again. Note: we eat a lot of beats. And drop a lot of beets. 

The verdict:

All were good, none were great. Skip it and stick with chicken!

Not that I would not eat it, but its a lot of work for the least fatty part of the pig. I'll stick with bacon for now.

"I don't know nuthin'. You'll never get it out of me."

"not the ice cream! anything but the ice ream!"

"All right man, I'll talk! You people are animals"

"Yeah, Dylan. Bunch of foodies..."

"...but I get a fruit plate with dinner. Pretty Good"

"and I get Ice cream sometimes, also wonderful"

"More raisins and cheerios. Where's my Panko Fried Cod fish with butter and chive sauce?"

"What are Red Head Mafia Babies to do, Robby? I guess we just keep being cute!"
