USCHO Cooks: Maybe We Can Beat Bobby Flay

As long as you don't try to eat it.

Meijer periodically puts it on sale 5/$5. Otherwise, it doesn't move.

There's nothing wrong with kale, unless you also hate broccoli.

I like broccoli. Kale is a waste product.

Arby's Venison sandwich is pretty solid. Glad I was able to get it today.

My place of work is giving me a turkey. Now I need to focus on the sides. And by sides, I mean ALL THE CARBS.

If I want a dark green, Swiss chard, turnip greens, or collards (if cooked properly).

Spinach for me

or collards (if cooked properly).

There's like a six second window between collards going from inedible sod to inedible seaweed. I'm too risk averse to try it.

Properly cooked spinach is one of life's great pleasures.

My personal favorite is raw baby spinach in a salad. Or on a turkey sandwich. I honestly don't think I've had a lot of cooked spinach in my life.

Raw spinach is TEH DEVIL.

Raw spinach is great. Cooked spinach is what you'll find in dips and vegetarian lasagna, which can be truly excellent, even if it's about as healthy as carrot cake (look it up in comparison to other cakes).

Love spinach. Sauteed with butter and garlic, in salad, on sandwiches, in wrap with roasted veggies....

Better for Christmas: cherry almond fudge or cherry, hazelnut and pistachio nougat?

Re: USCHO Cooks: Maybe We Can Beat Bobby Flay

Fudge. Though both are perfectly acceptable

And I still have no idea what I'm making for Thanksgiving, but thankfully, I don't have to cook everything this year.

By the way, I have two Detroit-related comments:

- Detroit Style Pizza is the best thing ever
- Sister Pie's salted maple pie is the best pie in the history of mankind

Good Gravy. I am still working on organizing myself for Turkey Day. Christmas cookies are a bit further down the road.

What is detroit style pizza?

Crust, crapload of cheese, then sauce striped on top. Baked in a blue steel pan (like a 9x13 lasagna pan), so the cheese caramelizes on the crust.

I hesitate to call it deep dish (even though, technically, it is), because it's very different than Chicago-style, which I don't like.
