BJ Bryan came by around noon to work on a legal
matter and after we finished I asked him, “Have you ever been to Pro’s Ranch Market
for lunch?”
B.J. responded, “I have never been to Pro’s Ranch
Market.”
When I asked if he would like to go and have a few
tacos for lunch, he enthusiastically said, “Yes.”
So we drove across the bridge to Pro’s and ordered
three tacos each and the server gave us a few grilled onions and a grill jalapeño
and BJ went to find and buy two Jarritos, one of guaza and one of pina and I got
us two cups of ice and we had a great time adding the many different salsas and
onions, lime and cilantro to our tacos and eating them. Pro’s tacos are served in a double layer of small
tortillas made fresh in its tortilleria on premises. We ate three tacos each. I had buche (grilled and stewed tripe), a
carnitas, and a carne asado. B.J. had a
chicken, an carne asado, and a carnitas.
After lunch we walked round the store to get a lay
of the land. When I saw that there was a sale on fresh chicken quarters for
$.67/lb. I bought a package of five leg quarters and then went back to the
produce section and bought four red delicious apples ($.69/lb.) and four sweet
potatoes ($.69/lb.) to make chicken curry.
I did not thaw anything for dinner, so when Suzette
arrived home I suggested that we thaw and cook the three brats I had bought
last week at Sprouts and eat them with the bag of Boarshead Sauerkraut
($2.49/lb.) I had also bought at Sprouts last week. So while I went to pick up Willy at the Rail
Runner, Suzette thawed the brats and started boiling them in dark German beer
in a skillet. After the beer evaporates
Suzette adds butter and sautés the brats in butter until their skins turn
brown.
Suzette fetched the mayonnaise, horseradish,
ketchup, and mustard and put them on the lazy-susan and we got beers and piled
the vegetable mixture on plates beside our brats and ate heartily.
Bon Appétit
