Well, yesterday was kind of rough. My car broke down AGAIN. This time, I have no idea what the problem is. Had to have it towed from the lake to my house.

I hope the car is fixed soon!

Well I finally Tried Mom's mushroom soup chicken recipe on a year old rooster. And it worked well. Was trying to find something that worked well with old birds other than the classic chicken and dumplings.

Cut up the rooster, give it a rub of olive oil and seasonings (I used my turkey rub), brown it and toss it in the pressure cooker. Add a can of cream of mushroom soup, a can of cream of celery soup a can of mushrooms and a half cup of water. Stir best you can and cook 30 minutes under pressure. Serve over buttered egg noodles and peas. The meat was extremely flavorful and tender and the gravy was divine.

Here's what's in my rub...
QTY Unit Description QTY Unit
8 TBS Parsley 8 TBS
6 TBS Minced Garlic 6 TBS
5 TBS Minced Onion 5 TBS
4 TBS Pepper corns 4 TBS
3 TBS Rosemary 3 TBS
5 TSP Salt 5 TSP
4 TSP Thyme 4 TSP
2 TSP Oregano 2 TSP
1 TSP Paprika 1 TSP
1 TSP Mustard 1 TSP
1 TSP Red Pepper Flakes 1 TSP
2 EA Bay Leaves 2 EA

Hope you can get it fixed Jared. Car trouble can be so stressful.

You said cut up the bird, you put it in bones and all? I have 6 roosters to process within the next 6 weeks or so...

Yes, I like the flavor added from the bones. I'll make stock from the back, neck and wing tips later this week.

Hey, so my brother is going to be having surgery on Wednesday. It's surgery on his nose. I'm making corned beef for the family for Sunday. Hopefully that'll help my brother cheer up after the surgery!

I've made corned venison before, but never corned beef. This will be fun!

 

[jnicholes]

Corned beef is in the brine! It will be ready on Sunday!

The corned beef will be something for him to look forward too
