Cajun Baked Sweet Potato
" 1 tablespoon paprika
" 1 teaspoon brown sugar
" 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
" 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
" 1/2 teaspoon thyme
" 1/2 teaspoon rosemary
" 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
" 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
" 1 large sweet potato
" 1 tablespoon olive oil
Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Combine the paprika, brown sugar, black pepper, onion powder, thyme,
rosemary, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper. Slice the sweet potatoes in half lengthwise; rub the
halves with olive oil, and then spread the seasoning mix over the open half of each potato. (I use a
butter knife.)
Bake for 45minutes or until the sweet potato is tender.
[Note: Simply multiply the recipe for more than one potato.]

Here's *the* recipe for sweet potatoes. Had it at the Mesa Grill in Vegas, Bobby Flay's restaurant. Awesome.

As soon as I read 'two cups of heavy cream' it became a no-no. I'd love it, but my wife wouldn't
consider it. Have you ever sliced a sweet potato? There's a lot of work involved with using a knife
to slice three sweet potatos in 1/8" thick slices. I'd probably cut a thumb off. I'll bet Bobby used
an electric slicer!

You fellas sure like to change the taste of food you say you like. I
like the taste of a sweet potato the way it comes from nature, baked,
with a tiny pat of butter and a little salt. You guys do the same thing
with beouf...I don't eat that much of it, but when I do, it is because,
for example, I like the taste of a steak. Crikey...why bother with the
main ingredient...just sit down with a spoon and an assortment of
spices. And speaking of which...when you add a lot of "heat"(fiery
spices) to meat, just what are you tasting? Certainly not the meat. :)

I'd have to cut the potato into fourths for it to fit into the slicing attachment.

Do yours come from nature with butter and salt thereon?

Wow. You're the man, Krause.

Yes, like my wife’s automatic rice steamer. And her bread makers. Kitchen klutter.

I have to admit we bought an air fryer, and have actually used it more
than once. It's done a good job on everything we've tried so far. Not
interested in a (not so) instant pot.

We're doing a complete kitchen remodel starting in a couple of weeks.
Demo down to sheetrock and subfloors, all new custom cabinets, granite,
appliances, new prep sink in island (where one has never existed), new
hardwoods, etc. The kitchen will be down for at least 8 weeks.

The wife was nervous about about how to survive. We have a heated and
cooled utility room with a mud room sink in it downstairs off the
garage. Countertop and shelves beside the sink, and refrigerator w/ice
maker and deep freeze also in the room. That's food storage and prep,
pots/pans and utensil cleanup and storage.

Have a gas grill with side burner, pellet grill (smoker/wood fired
convection oven), coleman 2 burner LP camp stove, evil Santa gift
electric griddle still in the box, air fryer, toaster oven, and microwave.

It will be an adventure, but I think we'll make it. :)

When we tore up the indoor kitchen we had our oven on a furniture
dolly out in the screen cage for about a month running on an extension
cord, until I got the country kitchen done outside. The oven has not
been inside since then. I lived on the gas grill and side burner until
I got a cook top installed inside. I was using a temporary plywood
counter until the metal fabricator got done with that stainless
counter top where the sink and cook top sit. I already had my cabinets
on site so most of the kitchen went pretty fast. The plumbing did not
change much but there was fairly extensive electrical, getting me
plenty of circuits and receptacles serving the counter tops.


Our contractor did not start ripping, until the cabinets were in the
garage, and the appliances were at the stores warehouse. We have a really
nice wet bar in a family room, so we had a sinks, and an electric skillet
on the bar top. Plus a bbq and side burner. We were only down about 3
weeks, a few days of that was waiting for the city inspectors,

Yeah, I'm questioning the time frame a bit, but we have a few more moving
parts. The cabinets are being built before the demo starts and the
appliances are already ordered, but we also have the flooring guys that
have to do demo on the tile after the cabinet/general guys do their demo
thing, then the cabinet guys have to have everything roughed in for the
granite guy to take his measurements, then the
cabinet/granite/tile/electrical/plumbing guys have to have all their
stuff completely done for the floor guys to even start to lay hardwood
(finished in place to match the rest of the hardwood), then the appliance
guys to install while the stair guy installs new wrought iron balusters.
Plus cleanup and inspections.

Three weeks ain't gonna cut it. :)



The demolition was about 1/2 day. That included removing a soffit
ceiling. The flooring was sheet vinyl at the time. I forget what we went
with, but since have hickory flooring. The 3 weeks included replacing two
8’ sliding doors. Our contractor was very organized. Reminds me of the
contractor that has done highway jobs for CalTrans. A truck burned and
destroyed the integrity of part of the overpass in what is call3d the
Cypress Maze. Is the multi tier overpass on the Oakland side of the Bay
Bridge. Estimates were 3 months to repair. He did it in a couple weeks.
All the subcontractors were lined up,and they were building new on one
end while demoing on the other end. Same guy did the overpasses in Los
Angeles after their quake. Gets a bonus for everyday under the contract
time.
