It's all about cravings this week........ I have been craving a meatball sub for much of the week and then I was flipping between the cooking channels and cupcake wars was on..... chocolate cupcakes..... I need one.............. soooo, here we go
this morning I mixed up some meatballs and threw them on the MAK, cooked them almost all the way through
then brought them inside and simmered in spaghetti sauce for a few hours... smoky pasta sauce is the most incredible smelling food......
these are ready to go back on the MAK to heat up while the cupcakes are baking.
mixed up some chocolate cupcakes and put them in the MAK with the meatballs&sauce
started prepping the sandwich stuff
we have this incredible roasted garlic ciabatta bread - look at all the chunks of roasted garlic - yum -- I spread some butter on this after I took the picture
three weeks ago I smoked some cheese in the warming drawer of the MAK - I had done some fresh mozzarella and a chunk of regular - look at the color on these - the log is the fresh and the shredded is the regular
the cupcakes came out and the bread went on over the flame zone
the sandwich -- fresh mozz on the bottom, meatballs&sauce, regular mozz , a little more sauce - under the broiler for a minute
knife and fork was needed
then dessert: did I mention cravings? chocolate too - I didn't feel like regular frosting so I made some chocolate ganache - one with 60% chocolate and one with white chocolate and spread and drizzled and swirled while it was still warm ............
very full and happy now
