I'd eat any potato... except a tater tot (a complete waste of potato - I'm not sure they actually have potato in 'em). anywa, glass potatoes - were they good?

...That was one of the years! PawPaw was sick as a dog and spent the entire day in bed. Those potatoes take some work and when they went down, Mr. K almost started crying! He scooped some of them up and ate them himself. The kids and I were like... I kept waiting for a crunch and blood!

You all really do have to try the Arista beef tenderloin, the garlic mashed potatoes, and the lemon-garlic green beens from the menu that I posted. It was absolutely heavenly, and it really was relatively simple for the level of flavor that is still making my taste buds happy. Beach Jacket is such a cooking artiste.

We had our beef tenderloin with the beef reduction w/ cognac that the butcher gave to us. I cooked it to a rare, bloody 140 degrees and we all thought we were in heaven. Didn't even need a knife. And the twice baked potatoes, creamed spinach, cream puffs for dessert. We're all beached whales right now.
(Not a healthy meal in the least!)

But it's true, it dosen't get much easier than a tenderloin.

The Chinese was delicious tonight. I think this is going to become a Christmas tradition in our house. :clap_1:

Spill the beans, how do you make Henry Bain suace? The tenderloin was great in and of itself, but that stuff took it to another level!

Henry Bain Sauce was originated by the head waiter at the Pendennis Club in Louisville. Freeze any leftover sauce for later use.

1 (9-ounce) bottle chutney (MANGO!!!)
1 (14-ounce) bottle ketchup
1 (12-ounce) bottle chili sauce
1 (10-ounce) bottle steak sauce
1 (10-ounce) bottle Worcestershire sauce

Mix it up. I process the chutney with the chili sauce to make it smoother, then stir in the rest. Pour back into the washed ingredient bottles, slap a sticker on them for ID in the fridge.

I am so stupid. I should have held the Henry Bain recipe for ransom for the mirleton casserole recipe!
