Haven't had frog legs in forever. My Grandfather, Uncle and I used to go gigging all the time when I was a kid and stayed on their farm for the summer.

My Grandmother and I used to also bait the ponds on their dairy farm (which were the water supply for the cattle) to catch Alligator Snapping Turtles. It was an old wives tale at the time that they would attack cattle. Largest one we caught wayed about 150lbs. We typically relocated them to a river nearby but on occasion she would make turtle soup (not exactly a favorite of mine). They are endangered and protected now in KY.

Ugly SOBs.

I packaged up the short ribs for the freezer. Two giant racks. I've had short ribs before, but never bought them. Impulse buy. It was like $5. And this pack is from the chef store, formerly Cash & Carry, so they need trimming. Look at the photos; there is quite a bit of meat over the membrane. Should I cut it off to remove the membrane, and do something else with it?

Anyway, made the longest food saver bags I have ever made and just froze each slab whole.

OMG Becky, those frog legs were delicious!

And they don't taste like chicken. They taste like frog.

Personally I would try to filet it off and remove the membrane (you definitely want to do that). If it's big enough chunks you can always grill it, or save it for stew.

@Tcoat would love this, especially with mashed potatoes and gravy. Top sirloin ball tip roast. And it's sexy.

Now THAT looks a lot better than some of that RAW fish you have been eaten -

No, just different. I roast these top sirloin ball tip roasts all the time to slice for sandwiches. This one was exceptionally large; almost 6 pounds.

New years dinner. Ribeye steak smothered in butter, mushrooms and garlic, twice baked potatoes, and broccoli, topped of with milk and a nice Cabernet.

Food looks great!
Milk and wine, not so sure about that?
Is that something that is common where you live and/or your family?

I like milk, and I like red wine with a steak, so why not both.

The best spicy tuna poke ever. Got the fish from a friend that caught it about 120 mile out from cabo. Melts in your mouth like butta.

I used to make beer years ago. I got pretty good. I haven't brewed in 30 years, but taking it back up. 100% all grain, first couple batches are excellent. A Belgian pils and an American lager. Both very nice. Still got it!
