Friday Night Postmortem
Chicken and Dumpling (basically chicken soup with matzo balls): The soup was a little bland and the dumplings a bit mushy
Proteins:
Skillet Fried Chicken: Moist but soggy
Texas Style Dry Rubbed Brisket: Actually decent after I resurrected it by drowning it in stock after it dried out while cooking.
Vegetables:
Collard Greens: I was not a fan. I am not sure if they came out right or if I just don't like collard greens
Green Beans: A tad under done
Starches:
Potato Salad: More than a tad under done.
Baked Beans: OK but really just doctored up out of can.
Corn Bread: Under baked
Dessert:
Fruit Cobbler: Decent
Pecan Bars: Pretty good.
There are a few morals here. Don't try to rush your cooking and squeeze you cooking into to short of a time and not get enough sleep.
Also, don't try to many new dishes that you have never made before in the same meal
