Had some more fun with the oven today. 
Cathy (my wife) and I put a bunch of different pizza toppings out on a table and rolled out some dough 35 small (12”) round pizza crusts/bottoms  
Told a bunch of friends that around 3 the oven will be up to temp (600 degrees) and they were welcome to come over and make their own pies. The best was watching/helping the kids build their pizzas. They were so proud of themselves when they saw the result of their effort. Even the adults had a good time many saying they had never did this before. At the end of the cooking and eating most of the people stuck around and helped with the clean up. Good old trailer trash pulling together and having a good time.

I had a nice big Moose Roast given to me so I decided to filleted it open, stuffed it and roll it up in a Bacon weave and Cherry Wood smoke it.

A little messy when it was time to carve it up but oh so good. Six big slices went into vacuum sealed bags for quick Sous vide reheats when desired.

DanD, you have to be kidding me. Way to go my young man. I have had the immense pleasure of eating Porketta in a Roman market  on a few occasions. It must be warm for me to eat it sacrilegious to some, whomever they are, it must be cold. What we do agree on it must be eaten as a sangwidge on a thick crust Italian bread with large air pockets within. We always prepared the pig at home and trudged it off to a cousins bakery in Hamilton at God awful hours of the night to bake in his wood oven.  Your Porketta is a work of food art. Way to go mangi. 

Italian bread trivia. The thicker the crust the longer a loaf will last. They bake a bread in Puglia that will last 2 weeks before going stale.

Well, it's started 😊. Last winter while we were in Myrtle Beach one of our neighbours introduced us to kimchi. Kimchi is a Korean dish sort of like a sauerkraut but with much more complex flavours. I was watching tv the other day and they made kimchi so I decided to give it a try. I'll post more results as it progresses and it should take about 5 days.

Now, a recipe is just a general guide line to me, the recipe I have called for Korean radish which I couldn't find in Lindsay so I pealed some regular radishes, I didn't have scallions so I used green onions, and I added about a cup of carrot match sticks. Anyway, now it ferments for about 5 days and we will see if it turns out close to what I remember. 😊

Cabbage roll soup. If you love cabbage rolls but don't like all the work involved this is for you😊. I made a batch a couple of weeks ago and everyone loved it. This batch is going to be canned so I have it for ice fishing this winter.

We make something similar and call it lazy cabbage rolls. Usually make a big batch and then vacuum seal individual (2-3 person) meals. The stuff freezes very well comes out as if it were fresh made. Fast easy meal; take a bag out of the freezer and toss it in a pot of boiling water. Bago cabbage?

Guess what we're having for supper tonight; after seeing this post. LOL

Thanks Cliff.

ValueMart had the tenderloin and Wholesale Club had the bacon. The tenderloin was really nice because they had 1/2 loins which if you watched you could get the thick end 😊
