Hey, The Weekend is Here.

     Hello Everyone, This week was good, we learned about Cajun/Creole foods.  I ended up making Chicken Maquechoux.  It was really a good dish, it had corn, heavy cream, the Cajun Holy Trinity (Green Peppers, Onion, Celery) and assorted spices.  I also made Pecan Pie, with home made whipped cream and some Pecan Pralines.   The other recipes had a very good taste, and did not seem overly complicated.  In my opinion, if a recipe is too long and complicated, I just turn the page and move on to the next.  Cooking should not be that complicated.
    I got almost all of my homework done the last couple of days, so I am feeling good about how things are going in school.  I took a take home mid term, I have a catering assignment that I should just look over, but I think I'm done.  I do have to go to the grocery store, look over some unusual vegetable, and then look them up, write about them a little bit and turn it in on Thursday.
    I did fire up the smoker today.  I trimmed the spare ribs and took the trimmings and put them in the smoker for 4 hours.   After they cooled I cut them up, put'em in a large pan with BBQ sauce and cooked them on low for a few hours...  MMM  dinner. 

See you all later, Sam needs to do some research.
