To all of the people who cook on G@G, which sort of food would you rather cook?

[FinalFantasyBro]

Realistically for me I wouldn't mind cooking all of these but I can only choose just one, I actually mainly want to create my own wet burritos so I definitely choose the wet burrito. But what about you guys and girls which food would be prefer to cook?

Pizza

Curry

BBQ

Wet Burrito

Other (Please comment on what you prefer to make if it's isn't non of the other options.)

I can't cook/ I don't want to cook

[zeitgeist057]

I was a professional chef, here are some of my favorite things to make at home (not in order):

1. Stir fry : basically a lot of vegetables and sometimes some animal protein, all sautéed together. Easy, nutritious and delicious. Also an easy clean up with just one knife, cutting board, pan and tongs.

2. Crock pot carnitas: Easy and delicious, the major ingredient is time. Pork shoulder is one of the most affordable cuts out there.

3. (Cheese) burgers: So many different options for how creative you want to get, so many cheeses and toppings. I often leave off the bun to reduce carbs and make it keto/gluten free; a bed of spinach or lettuce is fine. A few favorites in this category at home are:
a) caramelized onions, gorgonzola, and bacon
b) avocado, bacon, sprouts, pepper jack
c) mango chutney, pickled sweet peppers, a fried egg, and melted brie

4. Baked lobster or salmon: not that hard, the key is not to overcook it as people tend to overcook fish making it hard. Remember you can eat salmon RAW (sushi), so it's fine to err on the underdone side and it makes the fish taste so much better. For lobster, if it is covered that will help retain moisture; I also put a pat of butter on it that melts in while baking.

5. Baked sweet potato: simply wash and wrap in foil while still wet. Make sure to have another piece of foil/pan to catch drippings. This little baby will take some time, but comes out so sweet in it's own caramel sugars no need for any seasoning, spices, or added sugar. A real treat.

Out of these I cook pizza the most.

[FinalFantasyBro]

Those pizzas look so good but I don't if I would chop tomato on the outside of the pizza though. 🤔 Does it taste good that way!

[t-8900]

YES! The inside I filled with fresh basil and alfredo. You've never had a classic Italian White Pizza? Also these crusts aren't traditional. One is made out of chicken breast (top) and the other out of cheese and pork grinds (bottom).

[t-8900]

stuffing fresh tomatoes under the cheese traps the water and makes a soggy pizza, nasty

[FinalFantasyBro]

Nice, I should try cooking traditional Italian style cuisine, especially so I can see what the similarities and differences that the Italian and American make their food. Actually I should probably do that for the other countries food I might be a fun test

[t-8900]

"Italian" in and of itself is such a broad term. Italic peoples have been divided and separated until the concept of "Italy" came into being under Garibaldi. It was not united since the days of the Roman Empire. There are similarities but also differences in culture and cuisine and variants of the Italian language as well. My father's side is Piemontese and my mother's side is Sicilian and there are many differences. There are a ton of dishes from Northern Italy that Americans have no knowledge of. What Americans do know Italian food are actually the bare minimum of the most loaded in fats and carbs lol.

[FinalFantasyBro]

Oh that's is definitely cool, which area do you actually live in? Also how different is Northern Italy and Southern Italy?

[t-8900]

I live in the US but Northern Italy and Southern Italy feel like different countries in some ways. Climate is different too. Northerners are huge on beef and pork, southerners are bigger on seafood and grains. Northerners use sauce, Southerners use paste. Northerners coat and caramelize the garlic, southerners like to sear it. Northerners make a lot of dips and southerners make a lot of dressings. Northern Italians have food better for storage, Southern Italians have more access to fresh ingredients. A northern Italian traditionally stores their home with hard cheeses, salted porks, dried salamis, boniet, Bagna càuda, etc. While I would say both are spicier cuisines than most nations (especially in Europe) you're going to experience a bit more settle earthiness to Northern Italian and a bit more up front kicks to Southern Italian food. Sicilian food has some Greek influences to it as well. You'll see more colors of red from Sicilian food and more green in Northern Italian food.

[FinalFantasyBro]

Whoa that sounds amazing, I tend to be interested in other countries and cultures because I have a huge dream to explore the entire world.

[Subarugirl]

Honestly a good rotisserie chicken or home made pasta and pasta sauce is always good

[FinalFantasyBro]

I love those as well, they are super good.

[Subarugirl]

I always make a nice rotisserie chicken when I am wanting to impress guests lol

[FinalFantasyBro]

So is that usually your go to dish how does it usually taste?

[Subarugirl]

not always, but occasionally it take about 24 hours to brine. The taste depends on what I am going for like rosemary garlic, or something with more herbs and lemon, or just like a basic salt and bay leaf with garlic. Really depends on what I am serving with it. Honestly I have never had it turn out bad.

[FinalFantasyBro]

Maybe I should tried making a rotisserie chicken it's sounds really good.

[Subarugirl]

Well you have to have a rotisserie but you totally should.

[doopayo]

I recently cooked salmon. I like salmon so I’d like to cook that ✅

[FinalFantasyBro]

I don't like fish but that definitely look awesome though.

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

I make a mean pulled pork...
Also cranberry orange glazed Cornish hens, made those for Christmas Eve last year and they were amazing, me and my daughters argued over who got the last one🤣🤣

[FinalFantasyBro]

I have never had a Cornish Hen, I wonder how they usually taste like?

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

Comparable to chicken

[Kaneki05]

Welp i cannot screw up a Pizza so a Pizza. I am actually pretty good at cooking just i don't ever do it so pizza is safe choice.

[FinalFantasyBro]

Yes out of the other three choices, making a pizza is realistically the easiest option.

[DaveToo]

When I was a kid it was pizzas. Yes, there were pizzas when I was a kid. I've done all of the above at one time or another. Shishkabob is my favorite over an open fire.

[FinalFantasyBro]

I am pretty sure I know there were pizza around your time, usually pizzas is one of the most oldest food ever invented. And I love eating shish kabob. 😋

[Aurora1010]

Curry for cooking for dinner or something but making a pizza seems the most fun

[FinalFantasyBro]

It definitely is fun making a pizza

[TrueConfection]

I chose wet burrito. I like making burritos and enchiladas. However, I would rather eat bbq.

[FinalFantasyBro]

Good choice

[DonkeyDan]

Out of those choices I'd go with curry, I like to cook new and complex dishes.

[FinalFantasyBro]

Nice

[dragoblack]

Asian stirfry using veggie noodles, pine nuts, bamboo, thin cut venison brined in liquid smoke, rosemary, mirin, Chinese 5-spice & Worcestershire, basic stir fry veggies, and sesame seeds

[FinalFantasyBro]

That sounds really healthy, is it a healthy dish?

[dragoblack]

It's one of my own creations from experimentation, but, yeah, it's healthy

[Prof_Don]

I’m totally option C, seasoning and cooking meat in unique ways is so fun!

[FinalFantasyBro]

That is a coincidence because today I am actually going to help my dad BBQ.

[midnightmoon05]

I don’t really cook nowadays…
if I do… pasta, fish and a few other dishes are easy.
Other stuff… like curry, nice steak… let the expert do its job ;) they do it better

[karaspara]

Tough call between curry and bbq for me but i've finally voted curry lol

[FinalFantasyBro]

I actually never had curry, I probably need to eat some someday before making the decision of cooking it myself.

[karaspara]

Yeah totally try a nice Indian restaurant

[FinalFantasyBro]

I heard that Indian cook their food super spicy, I actually found an Indian restaurant I just didn't ate there because I had no money at the time.

[karaspara]

It's not all spicy it's really varied lot's of mild and sweet n sour dishes as well as the hot stuff

[FinalFantasyBro]

That is good because I do like spicy food but I am also a fan for sweet and mild as well.

[karaspara]

Yeah the variety is immense I love it

[15_Debo]

HI!!!
I can make excellent BBQ... Pizza to...
But above all comes Baking...
Cakes... Yummy!!!😋

[15_Debo]

cookies tooo

[Babygirl_S]

Granola because it is so tasty, easy and healthy. I don't need to add any sweeteners to mine.

[FinalFantasyBro]

I love eating granola it be incredibly tasty.

[Razp_Sorbet]

I love making curries I grew up making them. Even though they take time and effort it always pays off and usually get so much food to store for later

[MuddyMole]

Out of those, pizza - I actually built my own outdoor wood-fired pizza oven.
Otherwise maybe a fried "breakfast" - sausages, bacon, hog's pudding (love hog's pudding!), baked beans, pancakes sometimes...

[Aiko_E_Lara]

Curry and I'm making for the guests tomorrow upon request.

[FinalFantasyBro]

Wow good luck I bet it will be an interesting taste I just never had curry before I definitely have to try that Indian restaurant I know.

[This_Is_My_Opinion8]

Oven roasted chicken is my specialty. No one does it like me.

[FinalFantasyBro]

Mhm I bet that must taste incredibly good.

[zaharuh]

Curry 100% some lamb tikka masala or butter chicken omg 😋

[ShadezMcgee]

My signature recipe is a boneless rotisserie chicken breast that retains juicy texture. Usually do a veggie and rice combination with it.

[Iron_Man]

I’m an outdoor cook I love cooking steak smoking barbecue ribs and grilling hamburgers

[Jamie05rhs]

I thought a wet burrito was something else...

[FinalFantasyBro]

What did you thought a wet burrito was? They usually just an ordinary burrito but drench in a special sauce.

[Jamie05rhs]

Sorry; I was being silly. Ignore me. 😛

[Shamiah02]

Gumbo

[FinalFantasyBro]

Gumbo is also another good choice, just ate some from this chicken place it was good.

[Phoenix98]

Whatever I feel like cooking that day.

[Nightroads]

Been a pizza cook for 13 years.

[Redstang88]

BBQ is my specialty

[FinalFantasyBro]

Cooking bbq is always good, just cooking meat on the grill.

[Pterodon]

Green chile stew

[FinalFantasyBro]

I actually have never seen green chili before, how does it usually taste like?

[Pterodon]

Chile is Spanish for pepper

[FinalFantasyBro]
