Motorcycle Connections…Recipe Testing and More!

I’ve put Motorcycles and food together before.  And shortly after Allan Karl left the comfort of his home in California to journey most of the way around the world, solo, on his motorcycle, I met him in a Starbucks near the store I had at the time in Eugene, OR.  Allan’s “Nom de Moto” is Worldrider, and his story has become immense.  We’ve stayed in touch intermittently, mostly through his blog posts and my occasional reply or comment.  But Allan is now preparing a cookbook highlighting some of his culinary adventures along the way and posted for recipe testers…enter my passion for culinary adventure!  I’ve recently tested five of his recipes, with a couple more to go.  Enjoy the photos and I’d highly suggest acquiring the book, due out in the fall of this year.

I’m not a huge fan of venison, but this recipe not only made it palatable, it made it really nice! I used a Malbec for the marinade.

And this dish takes its name from the Potjie, in which it is traditionally cooked…a savory beef and pork stew…

Finally, Allan knows I’m a big fan of Chimichurri, an Argentine condiment that I always have in my fridge (good on most any meat, eggs, or just on a cracker for a snack!) so he let me sample his version…

Thanks Allan, for the opportunity to ride along with you for a bit!  
And just to remind you, Gary Dawson Designs is up for any design adventures that you may have to share!  We love our work!
