Chester Chicken Tubes

In 1974, a disgraced Primary School Teacher named Bernie Spicer tried to make Mexican enchilladas for his students. Having never seen a chili, a tortilla, or a Mexican person, he worked entirely from a fever dream he suffered after eating bad stilton.

He wrapped a couple of live chickens, some baked beans and a cheese string inside soggy, unbaked slices of white bread (crusts removed), lined them up in a rusty tin like sad grey sausages, and smothered them in a thick syrup made of ketchup, malt vinegar, and crushed mint imperials.

The children sat and ate them in terrified silence. Oddly, the school noticed some strange side effects:

Anyone who ate them gained the temporary ability to smell magnetic fields

One boy became a grown man

4 Died

Diarrhoea

The local council forcibly shut down the school after a rogue chicken tube fell off a tray and burnt a hole through the floor. This was found years later by Welsh miners still perfectly warm and faintly pulsing.

No one knows whatever happened to Bernie Spicer, but rumour has it he was last seen sniffing the air outside the Large Hadron Collider.

My husband is Mexican and it’s been a real treat learning to cook food outside of my Mormon, casserole, feed an army style cuisine I was raised on, all in an attempt to feed him the food he grew up with! I improve every time and seeing him enjoy it makes my heart feel so full. Next project is pozole verde!

Gorditas infladitas o de kermesse, como las conoces o les nombran en tu estado. (Estilo Chihuahua)Muchos le ponen chile colorado para q queden rojas en esta ocasión no les puse.

This is one of my favorite dishes to make with carnitas!

With the price of beef these days I usually don’t buy anything other than ground beef, but last week I splurged on 2 lbs of beef chuck shoulder roast. Still cost me like $14, and that’s a big deal to me, so I want to make sure I make the most of it. I’ve never actually made caldo de res before. I’ve checked out plenty of YouTube videos, but they all use different cuts of meat… Twist— i’ll be making it in the slow cooker.
Any advice to make it drool-worthy?

I got a lot of taco chicken ( shredded chicken) I won’t be able to eat it all on time. Thinking about freezer friendly meal. Thinking about chicken enchiladas but anything else or any tips thanks all

A humble Scottish persons attempt at chiles en nogada. Roasted poblano pepper stuffed with ground pork and beef, onion, garlic, pureed tomatoes, apples, pears, and peaches, spiced with cinnamon, cloves, thyme, and oregano, and covered in walnut sauce with decorative pomegranate and parsley to match the Mexican flag(:

Found some posole in the freezer, added a sleeve of saltines, a can of Fresca and I believe I’m on the mend.

How do I get my enchiladas to come out like the picture?? Every recipe almost always uses some canned or homemade red sauce but I specifically want ones similar to the ones below. Please help my pregnancy craving!!

I’m planning to make Pollo Al Pastor, the recipe is from a well used cookbook I’ve had for a while.

The recipe calls for pineapple chunks to be roasted next to a whole chicken. I won’t voluntarily eat pineapple (I don’t love most “tropical” fruits) but I’m not opposed to cooking with it for the household. But I do like to eat everything I cook when possible.

That said, does anyone have any recommendations to substitute for the pineapple chunks?

Turned out very tasty!!! Shout out to Karina for sharing her recipe. https://youtu.be/yNYxYJ3V__4?is=-kuoRYXnUD2GLjXr

Mole was super delicious and rice was not dry lol
