    Dunno. Ask Shawn Highfield.

    I'll withhold comment.

    I understand. I told him (via e-mail) to chill

    Being a moderaroe is a thankless gig.

    It is, especially in today's Fidonet and the lack of respect for the rules, especially from some in Zone 2.

    Is Zone 2 Yurp or Azia?

    If you listen to the song of the same name, Issac Hayes sings the
    actual recipe for his bespoken food. LOL

    You do know that Isaac voiced the Chef character for South Park, tight?

    Title: Dirty Dave's Spicy Meatballs
    Categories: Five, Pork, Cheese, Breads, Vegetables
    Yield: 24 Meatballs

    2 lb Hot Italian sausage
    1/2 c Bread crumbs
    1/2 c Thin sliced green onions
    4 tb Grated Parmesan or Asiago
    2 lg Eggs

    In medium bowl, add sausage, bread crumbs, onions,
    cheese and egg. Mix thoroughly.

    Shape into 24 meatballs.

    Cook over med-low heat, turning frequently, until brown.

    Or, you can bake them @ 350ºF/175ºC for 35 or so minutes
    until cooked through. A wire rack over a sheet pan lets
    the grease drip away if you're averse to all the yummy
    fat.

    Serves 6 with pasta and red gravy

    Also makes scrumptious meatball subs using 6" (15cm)
    "hoagie" rolls w/marinara and some mozzarella cheese.

    Title: Classic Kotlety
    Categories: Beef, Pork, Breads, Vegetables, Herbs
    Yield: 8 servings

    1 lb Ground beef (80/20)
    1 lb ground pork
    1/2 Loaf French bread loaf;
    - crusts removed
    1 lg Egg; lightly beaten
    1 md Onion; chopped
    2 cl Garlic; pressed
    2 tb Minced dill weed
    Dried bread crumbs; pref
    - roasted ("kalenye suhari",
    - available in Russian
    - stores)
    Salt
    fresh ground black pepper
    Vegetable oil

    Saute the onion in vegetable oil, stirring, until it is
    golden-brown. Remove from heat and set aside.

    Soak the bread in cold water for about 15-20 minutes.
    Squeeze dry and put through a meat grinder, or process
    into a paste. Combine beef, pork, processed bread,
    onion, garlic, egg, and dill. Season with salt and
    generously with black pepper. Mix well.

    You can check the seasonings by frying or microwaving a
    small piece of the mixture.

    Make oval-shaped cakes (containing approximately 2 tbsp
    each of the mixture). The cakes should be about 3/4 inch
    thick. (If you rinse your hands with tepid water from
    time to time, it will prevent the mixture from sticking
    to your fingers.)

    Warm some vegetable oil in a large skillet. Roll the
    kotlety in bread crumbs until completely coated and fry
    over high heat until they are well-done and have a nice
    brown crust on the outside, 5-7 minutes per side. (In
    many Russian kitchens, kotlety are not breaded before
    frying, so as to make them lower in fat and calories.
    The traditional recipe, however, calls for breading.)
