That sounds great, PBNJ. I was actually thinking of salisbury steaks myself until I saw it was Goodweed of the North's Birthday. So instead, I am making his recipe for sloppy joe's. Very tasty indeed and I don't have to alter it for either Dad or DH's diets. Probably just cucumber and tomato salad on the side.
I will make it early so I can send it with DH for his dinner.

Lately I have been changing my mind mid-preparation! So far the plan is to have chicken leg quarters, baked in BBQ sauce, fried potatoes, and a vegetable, probably broccoli.

I am making pork chops in a maple white wine sauce with couscous and a veggie.
Probably finish off all the leftovers in the frige tonight so we can start fresh over the weekend. There's eggplant parm, chicken pot pie, chicken w/ tomato and olives, pasta, meat loaf and mashed potatoes.
And always a salad of course!

Tonight we'll be pigging out on Kalymnian stuffed tomatoes, Dolmades (wrapped in vine leaves) meatballs, barbequed goat and hopefully a nice, crisp green salad washed down with rich red wine from the Atlanti area. The wine though not cheap is as good as it gets.
Lately, though, I've had a bit too much feta cheese, so can kiss that goodbye until next year's holiday.

Doing an overnighter tonight at work, not sure what I am taking...my hours have been too hectic this week to cook much! Won't know until I hit the deli.

Okay, Uncle B, you have my curiosity buzzing again. What is a Cadillac Cactus Juice Cocktail. Would I be right in assuming there is bourbon in it?

I'm guessing, Tequila!

I'm defrosting a pork tenderloin and don't have a clue what to do with it.
Uncle Bob drinking something other than bourbon?
Cactus Juice...Tequila...sounds right to me! Of course, if he's a stone Bourbon guy...no Tequila!

Nope no bourbon....Cactus Juice being it's Tequila....Cadillac being it cost close to $50 a bottle..(What my Red Headed Daughter said to buy) I'm making Margarita's out of it...Cactus Juice does strange things to the old Uncle....

Rub all over with smoked paprika, sea salt and garlic powder, cover and roast slowly.
In my heart I knew PrincessFiona was correct (and the fact tequila has been my drink of choice since university) but I just couldn't imagine Uncle B. dissing Jim Beam or Jack Daniels like that!

Great minds think alike, UB. This is my standard 'go to' preparation when I'm not in the mood to try something new and different.

Well those two are easy to "diss" JB Black is OK for the deer camp guys. ...If it weren't for the Japanese I think the Tennessee Whiskey JD (aka brown water swill) would go out of business Can't stand the stuff.... On the other hand..George Dickel, another Tennessee Whiskey...Me likes a lot
