Gandy Dancer Porter

http://beeradvocate.com/beer/profile/17157/62594

Is it called Gandy Dancer because this is the kind of beer that early railroad workers drank?

I love all things American Spoon Food.

Roasted Poblano Sauce

Sounds good.

Can I substitute other peppers for poblanos?

And I do not have a food processor.  Can I make a chunky version instead?

A savory alternative to french toast?

Goose Fat Potatoes

Special thanks to Elizabeth and Morgan for giving me a jar of goose fat.

I sliced two leftover baked potatoes and sauteed them in goose fat until crispy brown.

Absolutely heavenly.

And I used toasted bread to sop up every last bit of goose fat.  Not going to waste a single drop.  Yummy.

This method differs from my own (learned through long experimentation) but it looks terrific.

My doctor would not approve of the copious salt.

Sweet and Sour Chicken

Looks simple enough.
