Late Lunch and Dinner are Cooked

They're really good! Some people eat sloppy Joes on hamburger buns but a lot of people just use plain white bread with the meat and sauce spread on it. Sometimes I'll just eat the sloppy Joe meat/sauce by itself.

@Traceyjayne I hope you enjoy it.

@DaddyEvil sounds delicious…I must try them.

@DaddyEvil And I just ordered groceries and included sloppy joes.

@AmbiePam You could have just driven over and had some of this.

I usually make Sloppy Joes once a month and make enough that I can eat several meals from the batch. Sometimes Pretty has some and sometimes she doesn't. Sometimes I'll eat some sweet onions while I'm slicing or dicing them.

@DaddyEvil maybe this time it's the beef rendang I'm eating.

You could eat one of the regular hamburgers, then. Those are pure beef.

@May2k8 Ohhh... that sounds really good!

@DaddyEvil - I had blooming onions in the States, there was a restaurant in Orlando that made them, I think to remember the name of the restaurant was Damon's.

@LadyDuck I wish I could make them at home! We rarely go out to eat anymore and haven't been to amusement parks for 10 years or more by now.

We used to buy blooming onions and loved those. They're onions that are cut almost all the way through and then battered and deep fried. You pull part off and dip it into some sauce before eating it. We bought them at different amusement parks around our state. I bake onions with meat and potatoes. YUM!

It is made with brown sugar so tastes sweetish. Ohhh... mini pies sound delicious and cherry is my favorite! I hope you enjoy your evening/night.

@sallypup I went to sleep this afternoon and woke up right at midnight. Thank you.

@DaddyEvil Bing cherry pies tonight with scrambled eggs. I don't put sugar in but did put pats of butter with cinnamon in. I hope your night is also pleasant.

We usually buy Vidalia sweet onions but they were out of them this time. They only had the Maya sweet onions but those are good, too.

@DaddyEvil Vidalias are my favorite

@NJChicaa Do you eat Vidalia onions raw?

@DaddyEvil .......I've never been able to eat one raw, but I do like a sweet onion. The lunch was good.

Thanks... I use a lot of different onions in my cooking, but will only eat Vidalia onions or Maya sweet onions raw. That sounds like a good lunch. I hope you enjoyed it.

@celticeagle I mostly cook onions but do like to taste the sweet ones raw.

@DaddyEvil Leticia said that that was for poor people. I replied that it was food for kings.

I love caramelized onions on bread.

@marguicha Letitia doesn't know what's good food!

@DaddyEvil Definitely

Onions are good in almost everything!

Thank you. You should come and have dinner with us... I'm feeling a lot better now, thanks.

@DaddyEvil that is good to know

Thank you. I will eat any kind of onions but will only eat the sweet ones raw.

It doesn't really take long to divide the large packages up but it's helpful if Pretty comes in and does part of it for me. Even when I can't see, she won't do any of that herself.

@DaddyEvil my daughter will help with most stuff but not raw chicken. If we get a big pkg of chicken cutlets from Sam's Club that's my job to divide it all into portions.

Yes, I knew that.

@LindaOHio

@DaddyEvil Yes, I know that you knew that! lolololol

Pretty won't buy me any other type of meats. She says it's too expensive. I asked for ham! I ate one hamburger yesterday but there are four more in the fridge. And the large bowl of Sloppy Joe meat/sauce is in the fridge, too.

@porwest She's the one earning the money so she can spend it however she wants.

@DaddyEvil Not the point, of course. lol

@DaddyEvil Don't think I have ever had a Boston Burger. We have 2 other freezers, learnt they are needed when everyone gets a deer. Sure wish I could afford half a cow thou.

@Ithink Boston Burger is a mix of ground beef (usually 75%) and ground pork sausage (25%). The two meats cooked together complement each other and taste delicious. I use the mix when making different types of pasta and when making burgers. (I also mix ketchup and mayo (50/50) as a dressing for the burgers or to dip fries when we make those, too.) I only hunted and brought home wild game when I was a teenager on my parent's farm. Some of my brothers hunted until they passed away and often shared some of the wild meat with my daughter and I. (I am next-to-the-youngest out of 16 kids. Now, there is just me, one sister and two brothers left.) We were offered a chance to go in halves with one of my brothers this fall on a head of beef but, since we don't have the freezer space, I had to refuse. It's a LOT cheaper to buy it that way than to buy it at the store.

Thanks. I love mixing up Boston burger and freezing it. I wish our Walmart sold hamburger in the 10 lbs tubes but they only stock the 5 lbs tubes and, sometimes, only the 3 lbs tubes. I'll only eat the sweet onions raw but onions all taste very similar to me when they're cooked. I only have the freezer with our fridge so don't have the room to make up a lot of food in advance. We keep talking about buying a large deep freezer but haven't done that yet.

I use a lot of onions when cooking our meals.

That part is good, too.

It's all good and means I don't have to cook supper for several days. That's the best part!

The mix of the two meats is called Boston Burger but I don't know why it's called that. They mix well together and each enhances the flavor of the other. I don't doubt that a bit. It's hard to think of things that are different to cook in a house, let alone in a trailer.

@noni1959 I'm sure! I don't often cook in the oven anymore but it's nice it's there when I do feel like baking something. I hope your vacation will be nice and you get some rest.

@DaddyEvil It's getting harder to figure out. Thankfully, I'm headed to Oregon Sunday for nine days and can cook with an oven. It will be so nice to get away from the trailer for awhile.

Sometimes I just cook hamburger and spices with sweet onions, drain the liquids off and eat it while it's still hot. YUM!
