Cooking aboard or outdoors

I agree -- I dont mind if your gay yoby. Why do you want to tell me?


I wou'dnt have guessed if you had'nt mentioned it, what ever cuts your jib.

 

As I often suspected Frosty, you don't understand english.
Nothing in any of my posts would suggest I'm gay.
I'm very, completely, totally heterosexual and exclusive to only one woman.
I don't cheat.
My only problem with gay people is, they stole two words from english to describe themselves, that they are NOT entitled to exclusive rights to.
Gay used to mean joyfull, full of life, bucolic. Now, we can't use the word gay in traditional context.
Fred Flintstone can't have a gay old time anymore, without being a poof.
The other word I resent their besmirching and stealing, is rainbow.
The rainbow belongs to all, not just a group of deviates.
Other than that, I care not what they do. I'll accept them as people.
But, I'm not gay.
Learn to read AND understand what you read, Frosty.

 

Thats Ok im fine with it. what ever.

 

Hey there all,

I've only just learned that free wi-fi is available here. I have a considerable backlog of food **** to share.

Yob... You've earned considerable respect from me for addressing, intelligently, two of my own pet hates:

1) I hate the word "gay". I am a happy person, but what does that have to do with being same sex attracted?

2) The persistent reference to the "rainbow". For those interested, the pride flag is not a rainbow, it is 6 colours that represent 6 specific qualities that the activist movement wanted the greater world to acknowledge and respect.

A number of historians suggest "gay" as in "are you gay" as the masonic secret handshake of same sex attracted males.

I think the whole rainbow thing has more to do with one of the last performances of Judy Garland singing Over The Rainbow at Carney Hall. It is a seriously depressing version suggestive of living in misery but hoping for a better tomorrow.

Me personally?... Call me a fag or a homo.

Lets leave gay to happy people and rainbows to the Irish and their leprechauns.

Give me till tomorrow to tweak my pics for a food **** overdose.

 

I used to read meters in the Coachella Valley, which includes Palm Springs. One area is known for its old 1950's-era tourist motels that have been walled in and converted into gay resorts. I'm not homophobic, but I have to admit it took some mental adjustments to walk into places with big movie screens playing **** next to the pool and sauna, guys snuggling up or walking around arm-in-arm in Speedos (or less), etc.

The clientele seemed to consist largely of what I'd call 'professional' gays: those who flaunt their orientation, rather than just casually being who they happen to be.

I was taking some ribbing one afternoon for having the area included in my monthly routes, and one of the girls told me, "you need to learn to do what us women do, Troy." She went up on tip-toe like she was wearing heels, started mincing across the room with an exaggerated wiggle, slapped herself across her bottom, and smugly proclaimed to the world, "can't have this..."

 

I have to admit I was always puzzled by the apparent fascination with Judy Garland....

 

Jamesgyore, I'm looking forward to your receipe postings/

 

What? You're trying to get the thread back on track?!?!? What are you -- some kind of saboteur?

 

One advantage of this recipe is that the ingredients are mostly non-refrigerated, except for a little dairy and the pork chops themselves. That makes it a good candidate for onboard or campfire cooking....

Smothered Pork Chops, a la Troy

4 thick pork chops
1 can condensed cream of celery soup
1 can chicken broth
3 Tablespoons ketchup
2 Tablespoons Worcestershire Sauce
1 onion, thin-sliced
1 full-sized can sliced mushrooms, or sliced fresh mushrooms
granulated garlic powder, or minced fresh garlic
milk and sour cream
4 servings steamed white or brown rice

Preheat oven to 350 degrees

Brown chops on both sides in a little butter, then layer in the bottom of a ceramic or metal pan. Cover with mushroom and onion slices, and sprinkle with garlic to taste.

Mix undiluted soup, chicken broth, ketchup and Worcestershire sauce together, pour over chops. Bake uncovered in oven for 1 hour, 15 minutes.

Remove chops, add a few spoonfuls of sour cream to gravy, and thin with milk to desired consistency. Reheat if necessary.

Place chops on plates, with sides of rice. Spoon gravy, mushrooms and onions over each plate.

 

Frosty, yahoo news on line has a big spread on Hua Hin, Thailand--looks great 84,000 people 20% are foreign new hospital, great medicine--a little paradise they say. Ever been there? stan

 

Never again will I try and make a hollandaise on a moving power boat!

 

So simple

 

Baked camembert with pear and walnuts... That would give anyone a culinary boner.

 

Pork fillet mini-roast on a salad of sautéed white cabbage and crispy romano ham.
