My final pic is not as appetizing as the actual product was. Next time I think I would just leave the bread intact if it survives and not stir it up so the meat is more chunky and less shredded. Also, it was very rich and filling with the volume of bread I used so I would stick closer to the recipe. Super tasty regardless.
Belgian Beef Stew on realsimple.com. I used more bread than the recipe specified but stirred very little while in the oven to leave the bread intact but soaked. I then took a slice of bread from the top and put it in each bowl. I mixed the remaining bread into the stew before serving it up because the bread is traditionally melted and incorporated into the stew.
Mikhail did design the Enigma but he never really closed a deal with Synergistic to manufacture it. I'm not sure if that thing is still available but I'm pretty certain he never made significant money from it.

This stack of goodness is the bacon and angus beef chuck roast and onions waiting while I deglaze the pot with brandy.
Now with the stock and beer and spices and the bread topping
Two hours on the oven
And now in bowls

Fuck, this year is claiming too many greats. I'm going to have to find Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? and to watch tonight while drinking some bergin in his honor.
RIP Mike
Same here. The last couple of weeks at least. Using the broad search feature of the whole site, I got zero hits for "eggnog" or variations thereof, but simple searches within threads containing that term will pull it up.
They are an awesome trio. Anthony's crazy facial expressions and her bouncing around like a teeny bopper are such a contrast while they both play the shit out of their instruments. Great stuff.
