A simple Beef stir fry was put on the menu. The ingredients were direct off the shelf without any chopping or slicing (other than the Onion).
Ingredients:
1 medium onion...

As posted before, my beloved spouse picked me us a meat grinder/sausage stuffer for my birthday. It attaches to my Kitchenaid mixer. The second run was started on Sunday the 5th. It started with a nice 5 pounds of Ribeye roast. Ribeye was selected because it had enough fat to make some rather...

I was looking to utilize some stuff from the frig and pantry that were getting to the point of expiration. Ended up being some potatoes and veggies. My thought was to pull a roasting chicken or pork roast from the freezer. Ended up finding this forgotten nugget of goodness.
