I love Olives... I hate seafood or anything that swims in the water... However... I love NE clam chowder... I absolutely can't stand Guac! ???? Or Avacado for that matter.. And Cilantro makes me GAG!!

It took me a LONG to find another soul mate in the food department.. then Nickers came along. Yup, my #1 rule is if it came out of the water, I don't eat it... Cows wading in a pond get a pass.
Being a saltaholic I LOVE green olives, could eat a jar of them... But leave those nasty pimentos out... Whoever thought that improved their taste should be shot. Blue cheese stuffing acceptable. To Cal's dismay- nothing improves the taste of gin like olives. Give me a filthy Martini with 3:2 gin and olive juice. Black olives are OK.
Ditto the no guac for me too... But I don't have a problem with cilantro.

Well I'm not taking either of you two to my "secret" source of crawfish in Colorado of all places. In August they come upstream out of a reservior to go spawn at night. You take a strong flashlight or lantern and pick them right out of the shallow stream, de-tail 'em and quick char them on a grill. Use melted butter to soak them in and there you have what I fooled a friend into thinking were grilled baby lobster tails. Only way I could get that Bostonite to give crawfish tails a try. He loved them even after I clued him in to what they really were.
And give me a blacked or butter broiled redfish or flounder over a thick steak any day of the week. Nothin' better IMHungryO.?

It just goes to show you there is almost nothing more selective on this earth than food.......but don't be afraid to try something new once in awhile.
Nice too to hear your views on your most and least favorite food dishes. I pretty much like to eat anything that won't eat me first.
Keep your favorite recipes coming ◆ GAMEDAY ◆ or just family favorites. Both college and professional football will be here in August/ September but grilling season is nearly all year long.
Reminds me we haven't seen any of jcam's amazing
grilling and other delicious looking shots lately.
GO BROWNS and BUCKEYES ! . Ahhhh yes my favorite season ? football season !

Green and black olives straight were two of my gag reflex foods as a kid, the other being cold canned asparagus?. But the one year I lived in Caracas we had several year round avocado bearing trees and we used a long pole with an open ended tin can to fit over them up in the tree. If they rattled off with a gentle rattle, they were perfect for eating. We had them every day in so many different ways I lost track. Nothing like a half avocado with French Dressing in the hole where the seed resided. Just use a decent sized spoon to dig some out along with the dressing for a good side snack with dinner. Our local grocer makes a really great guacamole dip too. YUM!!!?
EDIT: Seafood? Baked in butter, broiled, blackened, etc. is great with the only exception being catfish that tastes just like the bottom dweller that it is. I can eat a pound or more of shrimp any ole way you want to give it to me. Fried crawfish tails are great too.?

- Fry the catfish for 3-5 mins per side (or total if deep frying) or until it’s as crispy as desired
- Drain on paper towels
- Enjoy tossing the whole thing in the trash and head out to Long John Silvers instead.?

my fav gametime eats a mushroom/swiss burger. what's your fav burger? (yes I stole the pic )

I love olives - unless they are ripe (*I call those "rotten")..... outside of deep fried bluegill fillets, or ribs and how we like our baked beans..... I still love the old sage sausage, green tomatoes, and sweet banana peppers (one small medium hot), well sauteed that makes an awesome sub.
but hamburgers and hotdogs with my homemade vidalia onion relish - that is a treat. This fall, for Ohio State games, of course....

Smoked Tri Tip.
Need to trim up the Tri tip. I leave a little fat though.
Start with a good Brown Sugar Rub (Salt, Pepper, Garlic Powder, Cayenne Pepper, Paprika, Brown Sugar). I add a little ground dark roast coffee.
Slow and Low with Cherry and Hickory wood chips. 225 degrees. This is a quick burn.

Hi fellow GAMEDAY MEALS and BROWNS fans,
Something different I've often mentioned that my wife the cook and herb gardener grows and dries about
12-14 DIFFERENT HERBS we love every year somewhat depending on availability. She also propagates, uses starts and plants some from seeds depending on how they grow.
Well this year she moved about 75% of the herbs to behind the house along with our cherry tomatoes already over 5' high. That bed at one time was flowers. -but- our local rabbit hoard just loves to eat them -and- she won't let me hunt them so.....guess what rabbits, deer and others hate most herbs in fact we used to plant them around the flowers for protection. We had a HUGE flower bed on the other side of our brick patio with the grill.
SO she took a picture from our deck at the new herb garden. She has a green thumb just like her late father Lou.
And homegrown herbs taste way, way better than store bought plus we save $$$ hundreds a year on those little bottles and bags. We also give away tons of herbs, some whole plants to friends and neighbors for free. Here's this week's picture bon appetit on chicken, turkey, soups, stews, casseroles and more.
GO BUCKEYES, BROWNS, INDIANS, CAVS, YSU, NAVY and yes I like ND! -

Oh yes. We've got 12 different varieties of herbs right now with different basils, thymes and others. She also propagates and some herbs last several years so it varies some year to year. Not all are in that picture.
She's been doing it for a long time and has that green thumb just like her late father Lou.
I grew up in a gardening family, about 5 acres at the old homestead of about everything including a nice barn. A fun hobby.

♠︎ Today's dinner menu. ♠︎
Country Pork ribs in sauerkraut, parsley buttered potatoes. And naturally our fresh herbs just cut now for both. And the cook has taste tested everything, I'm watching the Guardians (up 10-0) and eating at 7 pm.
We have 2 varieties of parsley this year (some years three), flat leaf and curly, both look so good.
The rest is just whatever appetizers and side dishes you want. I know we have black olives, maybe artichokes (go together). We're having spinach for a vegetable.
And dessert maybe ice cream or I love
Little Debbie Swiss Rolls.
And I guarantee leftovers for Sunday. Cook once, eat twice !
Bon Appétit.
