Sunday supper, 2023 September 17, what did you eat?

[taxlady]

I finally pulled out the hibachi and grilled some burgers on it. It's been a long time since I have cooked on charcoal. It worked reasonably well. I put the hibachi on the grates of our dead gas grill. This gave me an advantage over all previous uses of the hibachi. I could close the lid of the grill, which kept in the heat and cooked the burgers a bit faster.

I can't say that we noticed much difference from cooking them with propane or in a skillet. They were delicious and they have had some honest grill marks. DH had his on sesame kaiser buns and I had mine on a wholewheat English muffin. There was romaine lettuce, sliced onion, sliced dill pickles, and two kinds of mustard for individual garnishing of the burgers.

Nobody else ate dinner tonight...yet lol. Or they're in a food coma.

I got takeout pizza but it's still sitting in the box, soon to be reheated.

I had breakfast for supper - scrambled eggs with cheese, toast with butter and jelly, peach cup, dark chocolate for after.

Trader Joe’s Brie and blue cheese on Trader Joe’s everything but bagel crackers.

Some potato vegetable hash and some zucchini/onion/pepper mix, w/ketchup. Oat/applesauce w/raisin cookies.

This is before the reheat. Edited to add: Italian sausage stuffed crust pizza from Pizza Hut!

Very simple meal, roast courgette/ zucchini and potatoes with sous vide cod and butter

 

[Aunt Bea]

Leftover bean soup with an apple and a small handful of pistachios.

I repurposed leftover taco meat (ground beef) into a cheesy rice dish, with mild green chilies. For my wife, I repurposed leftover BBQ chicken drumsticks into BBQ chicken noodle soup.

Stuffed myself with the left/over paella around 1pm. Not particularly hungry later so just had some cheese, olives and crackers.

 

[Marlingardener]

We had pasta salad with shrimp and toasted baguette. It was a warm evening, and Sunday, so we hadn't done much that afternoon and weren't exactly starving!

Family luncheon Sunday so I made pan roasted pork tenderloins with a rosemary cream sauce with shallots, garlic and Dijon. We had that with sourdough bread and a cucumber salad in sour cream with fresh dill and chives from SO's garden. Dessert was a chocolate layer cake frosted with chocolate whipped cream and brownies with ice cream.

Since cuts of meat can have different names in different countries, would you please describe "eye fillet"?

 

[GinnyPNW]

After cooking a big pot for food for the doggies, I didn't feel much like cooking more stuff for us...so, we had quesadillas and mini corndogs. It was good enough!

Since cuts of meat can have different names in different countries, would you please describe "eye fillet"?

Certainly, and quite odd that you should ask, because for the first time ever, I had a bit of a confusion with the butcher about this yesterday when I asked for it.
Here, when I ask for Eye Fillet, it is Rib Eye boned out.

Eye fillet steaks are cut from a whole eye fillet, an oblong shaped cut that spans between the short loin and the sirloin.
Bone in, it’s known as scotch fillet.
My butcher said that it is known as fillet steak but I have never seen it called that anywhere before.
We got there in the end!

 

[dragnlaw]

That's almost a Tenderloin with marbling. LOL

 

[Jade Emperor]

Yes, I have heard it called tenderloin before.

 

[Andy M.]

This is cut from the tenderloin muscle of the steer. According to Google, eye filet is the term used in Australia for a tenderloin filet/filet mignon. Which makes sense given that Jade Emperor is from Australia.

 

[taxlady]

All of this description of the eye fillet makes sense as tenderloin, until we get to the part that bone in it is called a Scotch fillet. Isn't the bone attached to the tenderloin the T-bone? As I understand it a T-bone steak has tenderloin on one side and rib eye on the other.
