ketchup or hot sauce ?

Ketchup but also a good amount of cayenne pepper.

I just don’t have any hot sauce or salsa in the house right now.

 

[GregManning]

Next time try Louisiana Hot Sauce.
It won't blow your head off; just very good pepper flavor.
I use it on "next-day" / or even "cold-pizza" !

Nice cut of strip loin smothered in zesty Italian dressing, topped with black pepper and garlic powder before cooking.

I do that too! If I’m pan frying a piece of beef, it’s got some zesty Italian in there.

Sometimes I’ll just smother it on real good right before, but I’ve also marinated it for hours at times as well if I remember to do it.

Tastes great, highly recommend.

this is a thread I've only read occasionally. This evening I skipped through a few pages here and there.

There were references to Cornish game hens for special times. They bring back fun memories!

My high school buddy and I would get a couple when we'd go camping. We felt so sophisticated cooking them over the campfire. My folks then adopted them into their camping menus but used the range or oven in their campers.

When I was in HS I bagged groceries at a large store. There were ten registers and on some Saturdays they were all going with a lineup. Us bag jockeys were such cut-ups, to the annoyance of the cashiers. Sometimes we had routines as dumb as The Three Stooges. One of the guys would hold up a Cornish game hen like a prize and give a shout saying, 'Hey, look, a shrunken turkey!' The customers would crack up, cashiers rolled their eyes and us baggers would howl! If anyone had one roll down the belt we'd hold it up, give Billy Jack a shout and he'd make the grand announcement. LOL...such fun...and great eating.

In a few weeks I'llbe getting together with my family for our postponed Holidays of ChristmasNewYearsBirthday mashup dinners. Cornish game hens are on the menu. @Walter Hollenbach shared a recipe for a date/cherry/orange fruit cake that sounds divine!

Had a cranberry glazed ham that was pretty awesome, and my little bro came home from Maine with a ton of blueberries, so among many other desserts, there was homemade blueberry pie. Amazing.

Thx...food for me is pretty basic and practical. Not much fancy cooking here.

@Tom Dunlap I had a 2 man-company put new siding on my house this summer.
The "helper" joked that the owner only ate hot dogs !
He would occasionally change the brand of mustard.
For a "treat" he would eat a bratwurst !

They did a really good job !

I have learned over the years cooking for myself that you can put together some “fancy” meals just using some simple and common ingredients and some good old fashioned...
