Soaked the beans last night. We had ham and pork hocks in the freezer. I'll simmer the hock in some seasoned stock for a couple hours this afternoon before adding the other ingredients.

They’re all-beef and quite plump. I’ll grill them off the stern of our boat. Served on toasted buns with sauerkraut, chopped onions, grated cheddar cheese, ketchup and brown mustard. Baked beans on the side. Chocolate chip cookies for some sweets.

We’re anchored off Fort Pierce, FL and it’s quite windy today. It should calm down at sunset.

Used by newly received gift of Hamilton Beach Hand Blender to finely mince onion, celery & green pepper. I love this little gadget! 😁

Topped with mild banana peppers.

Yummy!

Chips on the side.

He eat a quarter of a quiche as a serving, so he'll be having it the next two nights, as well.

first baguette I made from 5-minute no knead dough.

Rummaging around in the freezer, I found some turkey and the last of the tomatillos from last year's crop, so I made some chili verde. Which will be tomorrow's dinner as well.
