    Always like some ideas on sp. Is there gravy involved?
    It was nothing fancy.
    Did use the beef, veg, garlic, a bit of tomato paste, w sauce, beef stock, thyme, rosemary, gf flour, a gf beer (wife is gf)
    Not in that order but worked on it until it was a gravy of its own.  Took its time, which was good.
    Did not add any gravy as a separate thing, though. 
    Gonna have a run at it with some good, crusty, bread tonight.  Might try it cold, to start.  Something tells me this is the way.

    The mash was as one usually would make...I did not have heavy cream, or buttermilk, or other suggested items....but I make a lethal mashed potatoes with some butter, milk, and salt.
    I left out the egg yolks I saw many calling for.  Don't think it suffered w/out it.  Some parm on top.

    If you all have some patience, I’d be happy share my SP recipe. Like F Me it’s a mashup of a few recipes I’ve tweaked together. Could either put on here or send via PM/email.

    Hell yeah on the steaks. Shepard a pie looks awesome…never made it either. Maybe I will this winter

    Got some cod cheeks today. Looks like a caper sauce type thing might be the way to go. Any thoughts? Anyone have them before? I haven’t

    Love the cheeks and the collars.  
    Not sure I've had cod.
    Any sauce you like would sound good, to me.

    I have had them before and you are in for a treat. I had them out in Montauk and they were served with a light curry cream sauce (very light saucing). I have also had them in Japan and they were served in the black cod style with a miso marinade then broiled. Delicious.

    Interesting in the curry cream. Pretty pumped about them. Fish guy I go to has been getting them pretty regularly so might be a somewhat regular thing.

    will update accordingly of course

    Awesome.  Nice presentation, also!
    I had sushi tonight, nothing amazing but not too bad.  First time the 9 year old had actual sushi....he usually has gyoza and Cucumber roll.  He really liked it.  Damn, now it starts to get more expensive!

    Smoked it for 3 hours at 250. Cranked heat of smoker to 500 once I hit 120 internal, finished at 130. I should have taken it off at 128 and let it rest. Was perfect for my wife and guests, but I prefer just slightly more rare than how it finished.

    Looks like a party!

    not much experience with steak. did an iron skillet bone in skirt steak for nye treat. Seasoned it up heavy with salt and pepper the night before. Uncovered in fridge. 
    Bam!
    Each bite fantastic. 

    Hacked up the leftovers and mixed in with the rice. Still eating it.
