I bought some SAZON for carne asada!
I was at the butcher's display at the store and while waiting for my turn I saw a small package and bought some....

I think that I'll make either a pork shoulder or beef for NYE!

I need to find the right way to cook it....I wanted to put it into a pit...but for me it's way too much work, so I am thinking of BBQ!!!!

My brother-in-law does his on the BBQ grill. We have carne asada at almost every family gathering.

I don't ever get to participate, except in making the rice, since it is the last thing my sis-in-law makes. What is SAZON?

What is SAZON?

Sazon is a seasoning mix by Goya. It contains achiote, which gives the flavor and color. It also has MSG in it, and gives me major migraines.

I found a recipe for a home made sazon like seasoning in my one cookbook by this one spanish chef on PBS, and I want to pick up some achiote seeds at the local market and try that way.

OML!


I made some beef short ribs that really kicked my arse.


Recipe?

One lb of beef ribs.
.25 cups oil
3 tbs soy
.25 cup cooking wine
2 carrots
2 celery stalks
2 garlic cloves
.5 onion
2 bullion cubes
water


Take a heavy oven proof pot, heat oil and toss ribs in. I sauteed them until brown and added some soy sauce, I removed the ribs and tossed in all the veggies with the wine.

After the pot was deglazed I added the ribs, bullion cubes and water to cover the ingredients.

I put the covered pot into a 350 degree oven for 3.5 hours......Covered for the first two and uncovered for the last 1.5.


I made some smashed taters and served the ribs over it.

Man it was great. I hadn't had a meal that good in a while!!!!!

Good Golly Miss Molly.


Get a pork shoulder piece and have the butcher cut it flat-almost like a steak.


Mix 1:1 portions of BBQ sauce and mustard and 1/4 cup of vinegar.
The next one I make will be with spicier mustard.
A few table spoons of salt and a tablespoon of red pepper flakes.

Marinate the meat overnight.
Get you oven going at 350 and put the meat into a glass dish and cover for about two hours. FLip the meat over about every half hour. Uncover and cook for another hour at 250- raise the temp after your hour is up and go 350 for one half hour to reduce the sauce.

WOW. It's not too sweet and just enough spice to make it tasty.

I want cole slaw but don't have any. I cut some pickles, thinly sliced onions and a french roll cut in half.

There's nothing "fast" about making bread - there's yeast and rising time, and kneading and more rising time ... but nothing like the great smell of baking bread.
