Dinner thread?

From this -

(57cm, plus 6 other 35 to 45cm range)

To this -


Panko crumbed snapper (snapper into 2 eggs and 2 T water plus salt and chilli, then rolled in panko. Airfryer for 5 mins at 200 c. Note, not floured before egg.)

Then the wings with salt and chilli, into air fryer for 7 mins.
The boy wanted to try the roe, so that went in to.

Oh and some green shit on the side....

First batches of Xmas/New Year Venison Jerky & Biltong cranking out ,tonight it will "taste testing" with some of our home made Ham,Salami & our veggie patch salad.

Nothing better than having some Jerky or Biltong too munch on while you are glassing a animal you are going to have a lung busting climb to reach. No doubt as usual me & the missus will eat our body weight in it while it gets Vak Pak in to grab bags for something to give you day long nibbles while hunting/fishing & get togethers etc .



Some Fallow & Red Deer meat sliced up into suitable sizes mix



Loaded up for a over night soak in the good stuff



Some "essential taste testing" just to make sure the same recipe we have used for years is right

Venison burgers tonight, rain ruined my plans to do them on the BBQ so they ended up stewing in the frypan and over cooking. It’s Saturday and I was a bit too lazy to put any effort into cooking. Topped with onion rings, gherkins, salad, smoked cheese and good old burger sauce.

You just gotta love a good burger.

That looks sooooo good!
A friend taught me an awesome way of crumbing fish, Dip fish in flour, vanilla yoghurt and then original coat and cook and pan fry. Works with any fish and tastes amazing!

Had a run in with a cow last week and broke my lower left ribs, all was well until Tuesday night when they must have moved. A trip to A&E and all has been ok until tonight so back to pain killers and “soft foods” that don’t take much effort to eat.
Only complaint is I’m out of brown sugar..... good old wheatbix and bananas for dinner. I eat this everyday for breakfast and find it really good to get me through until lunch.

Could of put her in the freezer when it happened, downside to having a small herd of friendly cows who won’t hesitate in going over someone if they like. She’s actually our best heifer/ cow in our herd and I really like her so she’s lucky.

@Chelsea Sorry to hear of the accident .I have had multiple broken ribs due to my long time hobbies/sports of Competing/Sparring in Taekwondo & Off Road Motorcycle racing & Sky Diving .From someone who has fucked up the healing process before & payed the price with Flail Chest after racing after busting a couple & could have finished my love of Scuba Diving .

DO NOT rush back to exertion early, so no PPL Pulling/Pushing/Lifting of anything for a fortnight after ,even making beds, hanging clothes etc .Ice pack it to help with swelling /pain control & TAKE the pain/anti inflammatory as directed even if you do not think you need them. Smoothies & Soups are what l found best for eating the first couple of weeks after.

Take a Fiber supplement like Metamucil etc & drink as much water as you can handle, as the pain killers will bind you up & any strain will hamper healing,keep taking it for a couple of months .Do all your breathing exercises & now you will have to be extra careful with Chyna Flu prevention etc that would be a worst case scenario & hospital bound for sure,guy l raced bikes with punctured a lung with a coughing fit from a mild cold, while recovering 5 weeks later .IMO l would look at isolating myself as much as possible until Xmas as l would not wish busted ribs & something like Covid on my worst enemy & it would be long term hospital care for certain .I hate taking medication of any sought but l would be asking the Doctor for the strongest anti inflammatory/pain killers possible while we are faced with this covid cluster fuck to aid recovery ASAP.

Good luck with the healing,if you have a pool/Spa l found light water resistance exercise was the best healer,wrap the ice packs in cloth to make it more bearable on the rib cage, .If you have any questions just PM me .

I did get 5 days sick leave but decided to push through because I have some leave starting next week after working 23 weeks with 7 days off. It’s mostly just milking now and we only have a small herd so not too bad. Being on my feet seems to be better than sitting down.
Breathing isn’t too bad at the moment I just take shallow breaths but that makes it hard to eat and breath at the same time haha.
I do worry about coughing and burping hurts a fair bit but I’m much better than I was on Tuesday. I have to take anti inflams most days for another joint condition I have so that should help keep things settled and I have codeine which definitely does slow things down.
I plan on running away to the bush next week for a week so should hopefully avoid any chances of catching the virus while in this state, not too sure how sleeping is going to go in a tent though.
Will take all that advice on bored thanks! Been breaking horses in all my short life yet never broke a single bone, open a gate to draft a friendly cow and this happens. Typical....

@veitnamcam Bloody great feed something me & the missus have missed dearly over the lock downs & will be spending a lot of time Spear fishing over the coming months.

[Beaker]

Not the full dinner, but the lead in while cooking dinner (and maybe a few for dessert) ....


Very nice after a busy day.

Smoked a couple of tomahawks for 1.5hr and then gave each side a 2min sear, not bad!
