The air fryer has been a big hit with my wife fortunately.  I tried my first thing last night, French fries.  I followed some directions I found on line.  And I'd have to say, they were "adequate".  This notion they would taste like McDs fries didn't come anywhere close to being the case for better or worse.  

She did Brussel sprouts once that were decent.  She's done a few other things that were fine.  She did whole carrots that were decent.   In my view, it's more like a hyped up toaster oven than anything unique, maybe I'm missing the point here.

It looks nice, doesn't take up too much space, and maybe covers things cheaper than using our regular oven.  For me personally, I wouldn't buy one.

Easier to clean than the full size oven

It's not a terrible hadget, but I think, so far, they get oversold (ha) relative to what they actually are.  A microwave you really need, maybe a few other items in the kitchen, this isn't a necessity.

Assuming you have killer mustard and good beer for the pretzels

Going out for dinner is usually not as good as at home.

Amateur night indeed.  We went out on NYE all the time in our teens and twenties.  

And that's the problem. :)

Who has a good recipe for New Orleans BBQ Shrimp?

We made this one last night: https://spicysouthernkitchen.com/new-orleans-style-bbq-shrimp/

We both thought it was pretty good, although my wife was a little disappointed by the fact that the sauce started to separate--mostly a visual thing. And we'd make it again, so on that metric, it was a hit.

But since neither of us have any frame of reference for this dish, I wanted to ask those who do if this recipe is representative and if there are any others that you'd recommend more than this one...

I don't understand the term "BBQ'd shrimp".  

I grilled another flatiron last night with the baking soda tenderizer, it works really well, better than standard tenderizer.

And it's cheaper, just takes a few hours.  Flatiron is tasty but tough, it's chuck basically.  This works great.

New Orleans-Style BBQ Shrimp - Spicy Southern Kitchen

For me the key to good New Orleans-Style BBQ Shrimp is lots of butter, lemon juice, and Worcestershire sauce. Ironically BBQ Shrimp has nothing to do with the barbecue. It is either cooked stove-top or in the oven. I prefer oven-baked BBQ Shrimp. The shrimp have a little longer to linger in the sauce and pick up the flavors.

  • 1 1/2 sticks (3/4 cup) butter
  • ▢1/4 cup olive oil
  • ▢1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
  • ▢6 cloves garlic, minced
  • ▢2 bay leaves
  • ▢1 tablespoon Creole seasoning
  • ▢1 teaspoon oregano
  • ▢1 1/2 teaspoons paprika
  • ▢1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • ▢1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • ▢3 green onions, sliced
  • ▢2 tablespoons lemon juice
  • ▢1 lemon, sliced
  • ▢2 pounds medium to large fresh shrimp, unpeeled

So, I'd call it baked shrimp in sauce.  But I understand the term predates me by a bit.  I think I'd prefer just shrimp and then dip it in whatever sauce I prefer.
