I am so glad that I married someone who loves to cook - I personally can't stand cooking, I prefer baking. He saw a lovely AAA prime rib at Costco and he decided we needed a treat. We haven't had prime rib (home made) in over 2 years. He seared it with a crust of sea salt, pepper and garlic in a pan 1st to seal in all of the juices. He then decided to BBQ it. It was still in a roast pan over indirect heat with wood chips added to the BBQ for flavour (hickory). It took over 2 hours to make, but it was the best piece of meat I have ever had - it was so tender. He served it with corn on the cob and potatoes mashed with ceasar salad dressing, mayo, onion powder and some paprika. Can't forget the gravy. I am still full and dinner was a good 18 hours ago.

Thought I would share this with you!

Awwwww...and you didn't invite your best cat buddy over! For shame!!



Sounds delish! But I was able to bring home my mom's famous cabbage rolls so I was in food heaven as well. That's the problem when mom moves away, I don't get her cooking often, but when I do it's worth it!

Maybe if he didn't enjoy cooking so much (and I didn't enjoy eating his cooking so much) we could both loss some weight!

eating is like my favorite thing to do! I can't imagine how hard it would be to 'be good' if I lived with a cook like your husband! I guess I should be glad my S/O doesn't make anything more complex than hotdogs in the microwave! Although prime rib on the grill does sound good.....

My brother-in-law loves to cook and he made us BBQ chicken with corn on the cob and baked potato. It was great! I bought him the BBQ sauce when I was on vacation.

Sounds delicious! Once a week, Frej cooks for me, and he particularly loves making gourmet ice creams from scratch (he made a coconut ice cream that was to die for).

We had a great dinner last night, a recipe I made up that follows our diet guidelines...wonderful chicken,green pepper, two mushroom variety dish served with a cheese/sour cream sauce, all atop a bed of mashed cauliflower. Yum (but I'd have KILLED for a piece of your Prime Rib..boy that sounds great!)

Sounds too good - when we get there - I 'll buy it if he cooks it!!!! Can I have mine still bleeding please - like meat should be eaten - still twitchin and near as dammit raw.
I understand that is why we have an appendix - for raw meat - well Ajax and Pickering hospital got mine on my honeymoon, so to hell with it - I can still eat it my way - even if it still turns Carol's stomach...... slurppppp

Kev,

I'm sorry, but that is just gross. I sympathize with Carol.

That sounds like a meal to die for. I haven't had good prime rib in a long time, so I envy you. This is close to the best time of the year for corn too. We need a drool smiley!

I've got one of those too.....he LOVES to cook, I LOVE to eat, don't weigh nearly as little as I need to ! But ain't life GRAND !

BTW, gotta agree w/kev, most meat is overdone !

What kind of grill do you have? We bought a smoker over the summer and do most of our cooking indirect with various wood chips. I get my husband out of the house for a while, as he is the grill-meister in the household.

I'll share a chicken recipe if you want it - made it for the first time a few weeks ago for a party and everyone (all 20 of my guests) said it was to die for.
