What's the dinner plan? Sat. 9-27-14

[Kayelle]

I have some chicken wings defrosting that I'll be marinating and grilling later. Sides are yet to be determined.

How bout you?

 

[Rocklobster]

Having Pho. Made the broth a few days ago. Rare beef and rice noodle...

 

[KatyCooks]

Just a sausage sandwich for me. (I don't cook on Saturdays unless I have guests.)

 

[mmyap]

Brats, mashed potato's and a sauerkraut / apple salad. My family won't eat sauerkraut so I have started making it into a refrigerated salad that I can nibble on over a week or two. It's an excellent alternative to the stove prepared version and none goes to waste.

And I'm going to go look for some fancy beer to welcome in Oktoberfest. Prost!

 

[Dawgluver]

Thinking some kind of ham and potato casserole. I also need to use up some expired Greek yogurt, so that will go into the cheese sauce.

Just curious. Tell us about your sausage sandwich. What kind of sausage? How is it prepared? What kind of bread? Condiments? Toppings? Anything on the side, like fruit or a salad?

 

[GotGarlic]

We're going to grill a couple of New York strip steaks and I'll make some kind of potato and a green salad.

GF just went into town so we are going to have some shrimp rice paper rolls for an appetizer. Going to make up some peanut sauce now...

Hi GG

Well I hate to disappoint you, but we are talking about a very basic repast here! It's a classic pork "banger" (albeit a good quality one), with literally just pork and some seasoning and herbs. Roasted in the oven and then plonked into a buttered baguette with a dollop of brown sauce! (HP Sauce).

Are you sorry you asked?

Of course not. The way you described it before, I wasn't expecting something fancy. But I have observed that people from different areas often vary in the details of how they do things and that's interesting to me. What is HP sauce?

 

[jabbur]

I have some pork tenderloins to broil with sweet potatoes baking right now. We'll round it out with a garden salad.

Brown sauce as I have always called it (HP Sauce) is an American product I think. But it has been over here ever since I can remember. The label actually has the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben on it so I guess we have truly adopted it!

 

[Rocklobster]

That's what the HP stands for. House of Parliament Sauce. It is very common here in Canada also. Along the same lines as A1 steak sauce, but a bit tangy er.

HP Sauce is a brown sauce[1] originally produced by HP Foods in the UK, now produced by the H. J. Heinz Company in the Netherlands. It is the best-known brand of brown sauce in the United Kingdom in 2005 with 73.8% of the retail market in the UK.[2] HP Sauce has a malt vinegar base, blended with tomato, dates, tamarind extract, sweetener and spices.[3][4] It usually is used as a condiment with hot or cold savoury food, or as an ingredient in soups or stews.

I stand corrected! Thanks Rocklobster. Anyway, it's jolly nice with a sausage! (Also, a fried breakfast isn't really "proper" without a dollop on the plate.)

You should take credit when credit is due....

Well, okay then!!

 

[CWS4322]

Dinner? Hmmmm...not a clue. Maybe eggs since I did cabbage roll soup for breakfast this morning.

 

[Steve Kroll]

I've been craving Korean food, so we may head out to have that.

 

[salt and pepper]

Montana beef T- bones, 1 w/ S&P, 1 w/ coffee rub. Reversed seared on the BBQ, Mashed w/ brn gravy and beans.

Sounds good to me, I'm trying to visualize you plonking and dolloping your classic banger with a bit of panache!

I'm having a pork chop, sliced cucumber and cottage cheese.
