Chicken Pot Pies for the Littles

Made a chicken pot pie for this little cutie… Used chicken stock base, the usual carrots, celery, onions, potatoes in a light crust… Golden to perfection.

Threadgill's - 2013

Let’s face it. No one ever would have said “Keep Austin Weird” if Threadgill’s hadn’t made it weird in the first place.

When bootlegger and country music lover Kenneth Threadgill opened his Gulf filling station just north of the Austin city limits in 1933, he had more on his mind than just pumping gas. After all, just months before he had stood in line all night to be the first person to own a beer license in the county. And soon after, his joint would become a favorite for traveling musicians interested in grabbing a drink after their gigs.

The quintessential beer joint continued to flourish into the sixties, and changed with the social climate of the era by inviting the folkies, hippies and beatniks to his Wednesday night singing sessions with open arms. Threadgill’s love for people and music smoothed out the conflicts that usually occurred when longhairs crossed paths rednecks, and because of this, a new culture tolerance emanated from the tavern, which had a profound effect upon its patrons and the music that came from it.

"Tur-duc-kens" - What the heck is that?

I wanted to do something new this holiday feast, so I asked my hunting buddies if they could get me some wild fowl. In the end I was able to get a goose. So my plan is to create a new dish called, turgoosen... The same premise as a turducken, but with a wild twist to it!

The research continues for now...

Hopefully I don't kill any guests.
