Halloween Dinner

We will all await your verdict on the hotdogs, vyapti. Pics!!
Vera, your dinner sounds like a foodie's wet dream.....
I just made eight BIG calzones (already packed 'em up, forgot about pictures) and a pan of butterscotch bars. Today is the birthday of our dear friend John, who died in July. A bunch of us are going (with his wife) to the beach in awhile, having some good food in his name, and scattering his ashes at sundown.

It's going to be a pork butt roast which is baking in the oven right now with red potatoes, carrots, celery and onions.

I agree. That sounds like a very nice way to say goodby.
I've decided to make naked hamburgers. I haven't made them in a long time and someone here made them the other day. I'll also serve mashed potatoes with gravy and a veggie of some sort. If DH is very nice I just may make cornbread for him. He's been on the radio all day talking to just about every country in the world.

Your dinners look and sound so good, everyone.
Thanks for the kind words...the sunset tonight was so beautiful. The sun was bright red as it sunk into the sea. We sent John on his way with tears and laughter. It was hard to say goodbye to Lisa, who is returning to the US early tomorrow morning. Hold on tight to the people you love...

Shredded Pork "Carnitas" Tacos... Had some country style pork ribs, gave them a rub in a Mexican style mix. Browned them in some bacon grease in my cast iron pot, added chicken stock, juice of an orange and a lime, half an onion, half a jalapeno, 3 garlic cloves smashed. Brought to a simmer, stuck them in the oven for a couple of hours.
Took em out, shredded down the meat. Let the juices boil way down, poured them out. More bacon grease, gave the meat a little fry. Put the juices back, used them
for tacos with pico de gallo and avocado slices.
YUM!

Chipped beef gravy over mashed potatoes aka SOC (you figure it out) LOL
My tummy was singing and happy.

I found this at the store and curiosity beat out common sense. It's a CAN of veggie hot dogs. How can that be good??? But the chili and cornbread will be good regardless. I just hope my can of hot dogs go over better than Keltin's cheeseburger =)
So how were the canned dogs, Vy?
I've had them before and liked them.
Anything Loma Linda does is usually good.

You know, they really surprised me. I don't even remember what a hot dog is supposed to taste like, but these tasted good. The first bit was a little mushy (I'm glad I didn't boil them). But after the first bite, the texture wasn't bad. I think they're better than the other hot dogs I've tried. My middle girl & wife liked them better as well. The little one has never liked hot dogs, so she doesn't count.
I think I may have to try Mama's corndogs now.

Dee , my mother used to make porcupine meatballs and she served hem over rice. I haven't had them since she died in 1967. I would love to relive that memory. Would you please share the recipe?

I'll post both recipes that I use, one with mushroom soup that you see in this pic, and one with only tomato gravy.CaliforniaCook

Great pic, FooD. Luv the pizza oven & pizza pic, & Gawd bless the lapd.
I made several pizzas last night for friends and family including this chicken hot wing pie that Officer Frank retrieved for himself. He did not leave any room for doughnuts.
