Wok, stove, oven, micro!

[sawhorseray]

Well it finally warmed up into the high 60's today, the freezing 50's are gone for now and the mid-70's will be back tomorrow. And folks wonder why I live here! Trimmed up a 22oz boneless ribeye steak from Freezermart, marinated it in Yoshida sauce all day after cutting it up for the wok

Had the wok setup on the patio, that's just the way we roll, 12 months a year.

Meanwhile back in the kitchen the micro was getting outfitted for some pork shu mai and chicken potstickers, along with some #15 jumbo shrimp for the stove top. Would have had more pics if not for all the dammed whisky!

Back out on the patio the wok got rippin' hot, tossed the veggies in with some peanut oil

flopped that around for a couple of minutes and tossed in the marinated ribeye for a couple more minutes

As we all know, things go fast in Woktown, into a 175º oven to stay right. Worked the scrimps on low with sesame oil, doesn't take long.

Everything plated up right on time and hot: asparagus-zukes-ribeye-teriyaki- strirfry, sesame shrimp with cocktail sauce, veggie egg roll with S&S sauce, pork shu mai and chicken potstickers with soya.

Of course when using chopsticks, straight whisky is the drink of choice to accompany the meal, everybody knows that. You can call it whatever you like, I'm not easily offended, I call it pretty darned tasty. Thanks for lookin' in, stay safe! RAY

Excellent looking cook there.
I too cook on my wok year round even though I live in NH.
My Wok set up is DIY using old Sunshine grill parts and a dump find turkey cooker burner "More Flame!"

Mighty tasty looking Ray. My wife makes a lot of lumpia and potstickers/wontons as well as stir fry. Much of what she uses we get from Lee Lee's. Great place to shop.

 

[negolien]

very nice set ups u 2. Hard to get a wok up to temp in an apt kitchen on some shitty low btu gas stove :<(

Thanks Mike! One of my long held beliefs is," if it requires chopsticks whisky goes well with it". Thanks for the Like Mike, I appreciate it! RAY

Heck yeah Chooch, you are cookin' with gas! I used to use my turkey burner with the wok, whatever it takes to get them up to temp. Thanks for the Like Chooch, much appreciated! RAY

Thanks Keith! No egg noodles here, got to save those carbs for the Italian side of life. Thanks for the Like Keith, much appreciated! RAY

Thanks Sarge! I do the meat and fish myself and shop for the other stuff at Trader Joe's. Their frozen aisle is beyond reproach, best place and price for baby artichokes when it's time to make a frittata. Thanks for the Like Sarge, I do appreciate it. RAY

That's one heck of a meal Ray ! Nice work getting it all done at once . I know that beef had to be great , but egg rolls and pot stickers are calling me . Love 'em .

Amen to that!

Thanks Negolien! Yeah, it takes some time but should get up to heat. When we moved here to AZ ended up with a electric glass top stove, not much on sliding the wok around on that surface. Thanks for the Like, I appreciate it! RAY

Looks awesome Ray!! Chinese buffet right in the back yard!!

Thanks Steve! I haven't had take-out or a delivery since the start of the pandemic, too chicken and don't miss it one bit. Thanks for the Like Steve, appreciate it! RAY

Thanks David! The winter weather here is gorgeous, 73º and sunny today. The winter population increases by about 50% due to the snow birds that flock here, they enhance the challenge of driving safely, they never seem to know where they are going. Thanks for the Like David, I appreciate it. RAY

Thanks Rich! Having everything hot on time is the only challenge to this meal. The meat and egg rolls will keep in the 175º the oven for a little bit when finished, the shu mai and stickers turn cold fast. Thanks for the Like amigo, much appreciated! RAY

 

[BrianGSDTexoma]

That is a mighty fine tasty meal there Ray!

 

[JLeonard]

Wowsa! That look like a great meal!
