I pit the Pope - What a dope

The so called “Church Militant”, of which President Bannon apparently is a member, are opposed to the Pope. It’s gonna get ugly.

Good.

Hearty Healing Beef Stew

Ingredients:
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
3-4 pounds beef stew meat
1 1/2 teaspoons salt, divided
2 large yellow onions, cut into 1-inch pieces
3 sprigs fresh thyme (This time I used 1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme)
2 bay leaves
1 cinnamon stick (I am out so I used 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon)
2 (1-inch) pieces fresh orange peel
8 cups Beef Broth
1 - 15 oz can Sweet Potato Puree
1 cup red wine
8-10 large carrots, peeled and cut into 1-inch pieces (the first time I used 1 bag of Trader Joe’s Carrots of Many Colors)
1 head of celery, chopped
1-2 bunches of kale, chopped

Directions:

Heat the olive oil in a large stockpot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add the meat, sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon of the salt, and brown on all sides for 8-10 minutes total, but avoid getting a crust on the outside. (Make sure you scrape up all those caramelized brown bits from the bottom of your pot to give your stew a deep, rich flavor!)

Stir in the onion, thyme, bay leaf, cinnamon stick, orange peel, and remaining 1 teaspoon of salt and cook for 1 to 2 minutes, until fragrant.

Oh you did it now! Don’t MAKE me post my trout recipe! :smiley:

Dang, recipes in a Pit thread. I love the Dope. And I’m going to try that stew as well.

My mom used to make ghost rolls. I sure loved those things as a child.

You take a large marshmallow, roll it in melted butter, then roll it in cinnamon; wrap a piece of crescent roll dough around it, roll the thing in the butter and cinnamon; set up a bunch of these in a muffin tin (with papers) and bake till the crescent roll dough is properly done.

You end up with a delightful gooey, sticky mess, so prepare ahead for clean-up.

OK, then, I’ll post mine. I’s called “Navarrese style” by the Navarrese (as opposed to Madrid people, who think that you make stuff Navarrese by adding tomato sauce to it):

Clean the trout. Leave the spine but FFS clean it properly. Stick a slice of bacon, prosciutto or similar (whole or cut in strips) inside it. Fry. Transfer to a plate. Eat.

Oooooohhh, I am so gonna try that!

I remember that part. My brother taught me how to do that. You perform an alimentary autopsy, to find out what it was eating, so you could choose the best bait.

Since the OP is no longer with us, I’m closing this thread.
