Sounds good! I would sweat some onions and my garlic in the pot for about 5-10 mins on low heat before adding stock and the rest of the goodies.... you'll get a little more depth to the flavour! :D

I don't understand what your sayin dude !!!
Apart from you like chicken !!
He said he got the jr pellet grill from traeger and he got some mesquite pellets and smoked some chicken. He originally got it to cover the smell at his house but it cooks chicken well too. Thumps first language isnt english, he does a damn good job trying though. ;) Ive tried to learn spanish like three times and i know maybe five words, if that. :):):)

Tonight was a good meal. One of the best ive cooked up in a while. Port wine braised lambshank on crab mashed potatos, with pickled shallots, feta cheese, and basil from my indoor garden. WTF. The ratio of potato to crab was 2.5/1. Butter, cream (lots), garlic, kosher salt, pepper, crab and potatos. Oh god it was good and rich. The sauce is just the braising liquid reduced with a little added port. It had a half a habenero in it so it had just enough spice to keep it interesting and the pickled shallots were sharp enough to cut the richness perfectly. Salty feta and the smell of the fresh basil. Oh man i wish there were leftovers. :):):)
