I don't typically love cooking with cast iron, despite the excellent results they can bring. It's messy and smells up the house. Add to that, the one we have is super old and not very good. We were recently gifted a really good one from Lancaster Cast Iron so today I decided to give it a try. We have a side burner on our Weber so I could do it outside. I sous vide a steak, then seared it in tallow on the new pan. Man it was incredible. What a difference it made from our old one. Super easy clean up too. Below is the pan, of course I forgot to take a picture of the steak haha.
Do you love using cast iron? What are some favorites you make in them?
Yesterday we surprised the kids and brought home a puppy!! They have been begging for one for years and we felt like the time was right to bring one home.
Meet Angus 🐕 He's a Golden Retriever/King Charles Cavalier Spaniel mix. He's 11 weeks old and currently weighs about 8 pounds, he should be around 35 pounds fully grown. I know it will be an adjustment for a while as he gets potty trained etc but we are so excited. 😂 Wish us luck! 🤪
Cheese is good! I ate a block of chipotle oven baked cheese with lunch yesterday and it was divine. I love it, but know that it halts any progress I'm making, and will even trigger eating in excess to where I'll gain weight. It's sad but I have accepted it. If I eat it in small quantities with a meal, it's ok, but I really have to work to keep it in check.
What's your favorite cheese? How do you incorporate it? Do you see negative results when eating it?
Happy Tuesday! I was scrolling FB a little last night and saw someone asking for a recommendation for a diabetes doctor that follows Dr Jason Fung protocol, I assumed it was a Carnivore group but then I was surprised to realize it was from my neighborhood group. Not many comments but mainly people saying they knew of Dr Fung, but unfortunately no doctors around here support that protocol. The guy who posted mentioned they get frustrated that doctors are just pushing meds and don't asking anything about diet (which is so true!!).
Do you have a doctor who supports your way of eating, or at least asks you about your diet or nutrition? Or is your doctor just very traditional in pushing statins and medications? Is your doctor scared of red meat?
Good Evening Y'all!! I did great today with no dairy or eggs. But I ate like I haven't eaten in 6 months today. I'm on a steroid pack for 6 days to help heal the tendonitis in the right ankle. I have a new little friend(that I'm trying to pick a name) for a minimum of 3 weeks. Isn’t it cute. Here's my stats for today I ate more keto today. I'm so Thankful I have some pork belly.
I won't be around a lot this week due to the last week of fall sports mixed in with parent/teacher conference. Food wise I plan on fasting till Friday morning as I am slammed all week...I haven't done much fasting since school started. Last year I fasted every Monday but this year I can't get in the groove. Anywho, family is enjoying beef ribs, meat crust pizza, hotdogs, and of course breakfast. We are going to Columbus this weekend for the JH State Cross Country meet for my Son. He is super excited and I am excited our hotel has a steak place next door🥰. I usually make the kids pack their own lunch but I took over making my son's breakfast and lunch to see if it makes a difference come Saturdays race. He is 13 and he packs whatever is the least amount of work because let's be honest he loves food but is lazy.
