That looks yummy!
What did you Keto today?
We celebrate Thanksgiving early at our house due to displaced family members. It is easier to get together a week or 2 before and it has worked out very well over the last few years for us.
I’m on day 74 of being full out on my Keto journey. I’m down 35 lbs and feeling great !! So when deciding how to approach my meal I decided upon a Cobb salad topped with turkey breast. I had a light breakfast of 4 thick cut slices of bacon and made a massive Cobb salad and I could only eat half. Romain with home made dressing, 2 hard boiled eggs, an avocado, lots of bacon, a medium tomato, and some cheddar cheese… I plan on finishing the 2nd half tonight
Picture doesn’t really do it justice. I’d already cut them apart here so looks a little odd.
I dry rubbed a half rack of babyback ribs then wrapped it peppercorn bacon.
Cooked low and slow in the oven for a little over an hour and a half.
Unfortunately I didn’t think ahead so I had to whip up a quick off the cuff batch of mustard sauce. Next time I’ll prep the sauce a couple of days ahead to allow the flavors to properly meld.
I love me some
Pulled pork in a bbq/hot sauce/grainy mustard sauce, cauliflower mash and some red cabbage in kombucha vinegar
that’s brilliant. No one else is interested in the keto thanksgiving recipes I’ve gathered and I have no interest in feeling like crap after the meal.
Husband wanted brunch at the Mexican restaurant but was worried I wouldn’t find anything to eat. Ha! I am a Keto MASTER
Ribeye with cheese, avocado, 2 fried eggs & a chicharron which was mostly fat FTW
Keto chili on a cold night. I have been craving a good chili. This one is sans beans to lower carb count. I usually put beer in my chili so I had to be creative to add a little depth. I used coffee to give it a little more dimension. I had a low carb cheddar biscuit in the freezer so it felt like I had some cornbread. 4.5 grams of carbs without garnish
Keto Chili
2 lbs ground beef
1/4 Cup +2 Tablespoons leftover coffee
1 Cup Beef Broth
1-1/4 Cups Crushed Tomatoes
2 Cups Water
1 Chipotle Chile in Adobo, finely chopped
3 Tablespoons Taco Seasoning( I made my own from a Pinterest Recipe)
Salt to taste
Garnish
Cheese
Chopped Onion
Sour Cream
Brown ground beef in large pot over medium heat. Once ground beef is browned, add the rest of ingredients, and turn down heat to low and simmer for 2 hours. Optional garnish with cheese, onions, sour cream.
How come it looks more cooked on the inside than the outside?
That is an interesting ingredient. I would never have thought of using coffee in something like this. Is that typical or your twist?
Good morning, EVERYONE! The Bulletproof Blog has a recipe also. Mine is just coconut milk, matcha, and butter.
Nice! Was that a standard there or did you “a la cart and mix-n-match”?
You are referring to the red ring? That’s just a “smoke ring” from the smoking process. Long story short, Nitrogen Dioxide from the burning wood and Myoglobin marry in the presence of moisture and that is the result.
A sort after sight in the BBQ world.
So I think the steak, avocado, and eggs came with beans and tortilla somethings. I asked for those to be left off and added a chicharron on the side which I knew they use in some dishes but don’t offer as a side dish on its own. So I definitely needed a helpful waiter to get that done and they nailed it! It was so filling I skipped dinner, LOL.
