I'm cleaning out the leftovers one meal at a time. The wife wanted hashbrowns. That's a perfect vehicle for my second to last smoked sausage, half an onion, some venison chili, half a loaf of homemade bread and the last of our eggs.

It looks like a hot mess because it is. But there are less leftovers clogging up the kitchen.

The eggs thing bothers me though. This is the first time in 7 years that we don't have any eggs. The hens are old and decided not to lay in the colder season and we haven't even hit winter yet. Normally we are giving away eggs this time of year. I might have to actually buy eggs soon.

Cost per person? Completely unknown.

That looks absolutely amazing.

If you want crunchy hashbrowns, add more butter onto the top of them while you cook. The butter melts down through the hashbrowns and improves the way the crunchify. Cook them on a lower heat for a little longer to keep them from burning.

Low and slow for hash browns. I really like olive oil poured right into the middle. Spreads out nicely.

That is a “garbage plate“.

When I went to college, there was a local restaurant that made garbage plates, they became pretty famous for it. There’s nothing better to soak up all the booze after a night of clubbing than a garbage plate.

I'm not sure what part of the world you're from but in the UK, Chinese restaurants and takeaways popularised then concept of the Munchy Box.

Basically, a pizza box rammed with carbs and meats - chips, rice, battered chicken balls, onion rings, satay sticks, salads, all sorts of shit.

It's like a happy meal for an adult. Being absolutely smashed while troughing it only adds to the experience. Usually good for then following morning too.

I know you guys invented the language, but I don’t understand half the words you just said, lol

But it sounds yummy, so I’ll take your word for it

My apologies 😂

In short, a cardboard box full of food that contains the fat and salt content that exceeds the recommended daily intake for an entire small African country, for about £12 (~US$20?) which is absolutely fantastic for filling you up after having one or two or seventeen too many alcoholic beverages that evening.

[–] watson@lemmy.world 2 points 3 hours ago* (last edited 3 hours ago)

Well, as an American, I definitely know what that is, lol

Also, £12 is about $15.71.

It used to be about 2:1 in the exchange rate, but both of our currencies have been slipping lately
