Pork SHTF cooking

[Great Northwet]

Well just like most people, I like to go out to eat. Now that all the restaurants are shut down I get to do it at home. Prepping is one thing but actually staying home and doing it is another thing.

There are going to be dishes to wash every night-or morning depending on how your schedule goes, but this just got real-real fast!

That being said, I'm in the food business and work on a major college campus. I'm front of the house meaning that I deal with retail issues and product on the front end, not cooking. So the thing is I might need some tips for all the stuff I have. I'm a long time prepper, but much is frozen/canned. Now that I get more time around the house, I'm experimenting and doing ok so far. But will probably need help as I get further into it. I'm just 1 guy, some family 20 miles east but they also have a clue.

That being said, here is tonights recipe that turned out very well: 2 6oz. pork chops(boneless) pan fried in olive oil, sauteed mushrooms in oil, tarragon, s/p, minced garlic, little white wine. 2 small red potatoes boiled. all covered with pork gravy.

It smells like an Italian restaurant in here,

Thanks for the inspiration. I had pork chops out for supper, couldn’t decide what to do with them and you posted this. I also threw in a few carrots with the potatoes.

Did sausage (breakfast), mushrooms, cheese,peppers, onion and eggs last night for tortilla roll ups. All the extras I wrapped in Saran Wrap, put in freezer bag and after tomorrow if any are left will wrap in foil and freeze in bag for whenever. There are a couple of things I would d differently next time but just a few. Nothing major. At least we have breakfast for at least a week with no pains.

Oh, attempted to do hash browns w russet potatoes. No workie. I’m not sure it was because I didn’t soak in water and then rinse OR if you’ll just never have hash browns from russets. Waaay too sticky like there was too much starch. Ideas?
