What did you Keto today?

[fischersd]

Dinner was brought to you by the letter “B”.

• Big-assed top sirloin steak
• smothered in Blue cheese sauce
• Brussels sprouts Braised in Bacon nectar!

[GhostlySmile]

The asiago cheese sauce works even better on this pork chop! I really didn’t think that was possible.

I feel the need to quote from Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventure:

“Bodacious!”

[CFLBob]

Ground and sanded down for smooth frying surface and cycled 8 times with the flaxseed oil seasoning process.

Can I ask why flaxseed oil? I thought that oxidized too easily to use for seasoning a pan, and saturated fats were better.

[hedleylo]

I’ve heard flaxseed gives it a REALLY black shine.

I don’t sand my cast iron, I just cook Keto (meaning lots of fat). My new “rough” pans are just as non stick as my old mirror finish pans.

Some pork belly rubbed with Chinese five spice and cooked in toaster oven at 325 for about 2 hours until that fat renders and everything is crispy AND juicy. Some radishes with acv tossed quickly in some of the fat from the pork belly, some eggs cooked in lard with nutritional yeast and chia seeds, a clove of garlic thinly sliced. I also had a simple salad with green leafies and evoo and acv with cayenne and flax seeds.

KETO IS DELICIOUS!

There was no point in time during the eating of this meal where I felt anything but gratitude that I finally landed on the right way to eat FOR ME.

Really happy with my new butcher, he is happy to get me anything I want and he delivers!

Delmonaco steak with grilled asparagus, tomatoes and artichokes on greens and nasturtiums/violas fro the gardun, topped with fresh made chimmichuri.

[Keto6468]

Omgoodness!! Beautiful. Are the flowers spicy? Some are.

[runswithdogs]

The nasturtiums are very “peppery” quite a bit of a bite to them, pansys/violas are more mild, maybe a wee bit sweet

How I Created the Ultimate Nonstick Cast Iron Skillet

It took 18 hours, but it was totally worth it. Here’s why.

I can confirm this. All 4 of mine, and my BBQ grills get this treatment… Unbelievable how well they work now. Expensive, but totally worth it if you really want the tools to work as well as Grama’s. Of course she had that wood stove that she left them in to be continuously bathed in heat…

[hedleylo]

Still tasty, but without sugar these don’t release the same pleasure hormones as actual junk food. Funny what is legal.

Beef Short Ribs cooked 24 hours sous vide @ 167F (75C) finished with a quick sear in foaming brown butter. Collards braised with bacon and onions. Just a quick post gym/pre work meal for a busy Saturday!

[CFLBob]

Interesting.

Everything I’ve ever read to about what’s a bad aspect of polyunsaturated oils is a feature here, not a bug. It’s wanted, not something to avoid.

Learn something new every day - if you’re lucky.

Creamy Shrimp Scampi with Spaghetti Squash. The shrimp scampi was cooked in our instant pot and I used the microwave for the spaghetti squash. So delicious!

some eggs cooked in lard with nutritional yeast and chia seeds, a clove of garlic thinly sliced.

I had Blackened Salmon with cauli-risotto with mushrooms and asparagus, but I forgot to take a pic!!! D’uh!
Anyways, I did remember to nail the dessert! No Bake Mile High Cheesecake, leftover from the 4th.

Wow, why do I look it this thread when I’m fasting?. Yum!
