What kind of gay hell is this?

Pineapple does not belong on pizza.

Hear f***ing hear!

Neither do bbq sauce or cheddar but they're there.

Well, you'll certainly never hear me asking for 'Mo pizza.

Oh, I wanna live in gay hell with Johnart. I love me some pineapple on my pizza.

Which part of the other pizza being the regular kind did you miss?

I'm not even a huge fan of it (like I never order Hawaiian but will have a slice if it's there). I threw it in cause we had some fresh pineapple still in the fridge and one of the people loves it and it turned out yummy. The pork was from left overs too.

You can carry your pineapple in this -->

I'm sorry. The other pizza does look yummy.

OH! I don't make it often but also make really good Pastelon.

The beef filling is cooked to have a very distinct taste (don't think hamburger or lasagna it's quite different in taste)

The outer is made from ripe plaintains.

I've never had it but really want to try it!

The other day we went to a "cuchifrito" place in Spanish Harlem and had alcapurrias and platanos con carne (where they split the plantain down the middle & fill it with ground meat)

Let me just say that until I met my wife, I had never even tasted "arroz con gandules" but now I absolutely LOVE it. My honey makes the BEST arroz con gandules this side of the Bronx.

I can't cook my way out of a paper bag.

BUT I am the breakfast king in my house!

I make scrambled eggs just right and dabble with french toast, breakfast burritos, and other things to make it cool for the kids.

I once made an "authentic" Honduran breakfast for them (fried eggs, fried sweet plaintain, refried beans with cream & white cheese, & mango slices). Got a lukewarm response.

I make all of the above (except the cuchifritos, I don't have the patience for all the deep frying).

MAIL ME SOME!!!!

Alcapurrias, Bacalaitos...

sometimes I call my little Westie, Lexie, Cuchifrito

I don't know why..

The only thing folk are willing to eat of mine are my buttermilk pies. An orger (I wish I could reember who) gave me a fantastic recipe about 1 1/2 years ago, and now I've started embellishing on it. I'm getting pretty good.

Yep. But you can play with the consistency by tweaking the number of eggs and/or the amount of flour you add.

Macaroni and cheese

eggs

pancakes

bacon

waffles (I'll make these whenever I have a craving.....and that's often )

and I can make one hell of a bowl of Apple Jacks

When I cook, I don't really use recipes, but heres how I do it:

2-3 Granny Smith Apples

Cinnamon

Boneless Skinless Chicken Breasts

Smokey BBQ Sauce ( I only use Sweet Baby Rays)

Apple Jelly

Apple Cider or Apple Juice

In a bowl, pour enough apple cider to cover however many chicken breasts you are cooking. Place the sliced apples on top of the chicken, and sprinkle cinnamon to your liking. I tend to be a little generous, as when you grill alot of the flavor will cook off.

Let marinade sit in the fridge for a couple hours, the longer the better. 4-6 is ideal.

I use a real nice gas grill for my cooking, however if you prefer charcoal, that would be fine.

Grill the chicken breasts roughly 15-20 mins a side on medium heat, depending on thickness of the breasts. They are done when you cut thru the fattest part, and the juices run clean.

When the chicken is almost done, use a small saucepan and heat BBQ sauce and Apple Jelly, roughly 2:1 ration, sauce to jelly on a low heat (dont want to burn off the sugars). Feel free to add a little cinnamon, to mesh the flavors. The sauce will start to thicken up.

I prefer to put the finished product over white rice, and pour the sauce over the top of all of it.

Sorry for the rambling, I created this recipe out of creativity and boredom. I've become an experimental grill master haha.. It is extremely delicious though.

Enjoy and let me know if you try it!

That sounds super yummy!!!

My mother makes meatballs w/a BBQ sauce that’s made of grape jelly, I never thought about apple.

I could definitely make a similar sauce to go over my veggie chicken fillets. And maybe throw it over quinoa for extra protein.

See – this is what I love about cooking! One little idea is all you need.

I am currently making a dinner totally inspired by this. I'm making the sauce pretty much as described and cooking quorn (veggie brand) chick filets in it. I'm making a quinoa pilaf w/apples, carrots, onion and a bit of red pepper in veggie stock to serve it on.

I can't WAIT to see how yummy it turns out.
