    Hey dude! Another cooking post for you.
    Remember I'm still learning the art.
    I bought a swordfish steak today and broiled it. Yum!
    Didn't use the Chivas in the marinade, I went strictly by the directions from the nice lady at the seafood counter at Kroger.
    Broiled and blackened in Italian dressing and garlic salt.
    Next time I'm thinking Crown Royal. Maybe some Bombay Gin.
    Suggestions?

    Hi Mike,

    We gotta stop meeting in the grocery aisles. LOL

    You know what got me interested in cooking, in the first place? Jwland. As a kid it was great fun to work in the cafeteria, or refreshment stands....mainly because you could sneak a pie or two, while pulling double duty, as a night watchman.

    My final cooking stint as a jw...was running the kitchen/cafeteria at the Norco assembly hall. I had a blast, no receipes..just stuff off the top of my head. When the friends would come back and express appreciation for the tasty food, I knew then how a chef can take pride in his handiwork.

    I lived near a very large ranch in Orange County, Ca. After getting my release from the Empire..df. Started paling around with some of the rancher's...once or twice each year, they threw a big bbq, we would dig out a big hole, drop a big green dumpster to the bottom, fill in a bottom layer of river rock, start oak fire on top of the rocks until the rocks were blazing, then butcher a pig, stuff it with vegetables, wrap it in foil, and put it over the hot rocks, close the dumpster lid and cover with sand. This was about 10:00 pm the night before the bbq, next morning the mexican field worker's would start making tortillas and fresh salsa....about 10:00am we pulled the pig out. Meat would be droppin off the bone, man was that good,with fresh tortillas and salsa. We would feed serveral hundred...now that's my kinda cooking.

    Shark sounds good. I usually get orange roughy or some other sissy fish, because my lady likes her fish to not smell like fish! Hea Ha

    I would like to attend one of these Ozzy Apostate BBQ's one day. They are starting to have a real tradition developing down there.

    Thanks for the shout Mike. Take care, messin with them married ladies, could be dangerous my man. Well you seem to have made up your mind as to how to handel. Hope all goes smooth.

    Regards,

    Danny

    Dumpster sized bbq pit? Dang! How big was the keg?
    I quit the married women thing, dude. You get one like I did with "snakes in her head" and learn your lesson.

    Is this a recipe thread? I hope so. I need a good bernaise recipe.

    Where it is a duty to worship the Sun you can be sure that a study of the laws of heat is a crime.

    Note to self: Add "Medusa" to list of multiple identities yearned for.

    Question to ponder: If Venice and I were roommates, who would be Laverne and who would be Shirley?

    If you live near any good Southeast Asian fish markets, ask them if they sell banana leaves.

    You can season your fish anyway you like, wrap it in two or three leaves, tie it with twine, and throw it on the grill. It won't dry out at all.

    Finish it for a couple of minutes to get those pretty grill marks.

    Yummy! Yellowjack is great, try it if you get the chance.

    Ginny,

    ***If Venice and I were roommates, who would be Laverne and who would be Shirley?***

    Since I used to love watching both of their antics, Iam not touching that one.

    And yet....as I remember, Laverne was the thinker, idea person. Shirley was more a follower, softy, a little bit afraid of her own shadow. Me make a comparison? Not on your life, I may be dumb or dense or an 'asshole'...but I know when not to leap.

    So does this mean you'd like to be Carmine? Or Lenny? Or Squiggy?

    LDH,

    Yeah easy for you to say, sure unwrap one o' those banana leaves...and out crawls a big 'banana spider'.....from some god forsaken, steamy asian jungel! Iam going out right now to find me some. Lol.

    Hell why not, look what the Greeks did with 'grape leaves'.

    Thanks Lisa I will give it a try.

    Danny
