The other week it was raised about what we are cooking up and some in here run a proper restaurant at home with 3 slow cookers working overtime.
So I thought perhaps we needed a dedicated thread with your favourite recipes.
From the lamb shanks of winter to the cream cheese filled jalapenos at a BBQ in summer.
Share your fav little hidden butchers and shops.
Share your recipes so we can all eat like kings!

Here is the recipe for a quick and easy pho I regularly cook
As a regular eater of pho in restaurants, I highly recommend it

I've been using the slow cooker once a week for lunches to get me through, I've been waiting for beef cheeks to go on special somewhere and they finally did at Specialty Foods so I made the trip there yesterday.
1.5 kg of beef cheeks, popped over to Dan Murphy's to grab a cleanskin red for it to bath in overnight on a low heat, added a carton of beef stock with some minced garlic cloves, cajun powder and other spices I have.
I put it on around 6pm last night, gave it a bit of a jab around 10pm and thought "shit, I better have a back up plan" as it still seemed quite tough.
Got up this morning and it fell apart just grabbing it with the tongs..................................sensational!!!!!!!!
Gonna go grab another couple of kilo's before the weekend to keep in the freezer, $16 per kilo is good going.

My old man dropped me off some chicken livers, bacon, onion and chilli (and a few other ingredients) that had been done in the slow cooker on Sunday. One of my favourite meals. Especially with creamy mashed potato and a bottle of red wine. The way he cooks it is bloody amazing.

Cooked up some premium scotch fillets on Saturday night then added lobster tails and prawns that I simmered in a hollandaise sauce with fresh minced garlic, needless to say it was pretty amazing.
I needed to cook a whole turkey so I squished him in my slow cooker around 7pm Saturday night and turned him off around 8am, I couldn't even get it out of the slow cooker as it was so tender, the bones fell out as I grabbed them, I'll never roast a turkey again.
The kids and I are making turkey pies this evening as there is no way in the world I'll be able to get through all the meat.

Pork ribs :
3 nice racks of ribs, made a foil boat and put the ribs in, about 1/4 of a cup of apple juice in each parcel making sure they were well sealed, nothing was escaping.
Cooked at 120°c for 3 hours, opened them up and put the grill on high. Basted them with a Jack Daniels Sticky BBQ sauce 3 times over around 30 minutes, let them sit in the oven, grill off for about 20 minutes.
Nom nom.

As the nurse at covid testing said I am dying of manflu
So I thought I'd have a return to a brekky I enjoyed in my childhood, especially if it's one of the last meals I am going to enjoy.
Weetbix x 4
Bit of boiled water over the top to soften them up
A tablespoon or 3 of condensed milk

My previous wife was part French and a gourmet cook.
After she died in 2008 I realised I had never cooked in my life beyond barbecuing the odd chop. My new wife was a TV Producer and an actress, plus a Marriage Celebrant, and a Rotarian and a family run Child Care Centre manager - she doesn't cook much either.
Thank God for LIte and Easy!
Mind you in 2008 I weighed 115Kg and I'm now 86Kg.
